Anna, Gina, and Ted divided up a box of post cards. Anna took one-fourth of the cards. Gina took half of what remained. Ted took the remaining 6 cards. How many cards were in the box?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

16 cards

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use logic to find out how many cards were in the beginning.

If Ted took 6 cards, and Gina took half of what remained, then when Gina took cards, she had [tex]6\cdot2=12[/tex] to choose from.

Now, Anna took [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] of the cards, meaning that 12 is [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] of the amount of cards there originally were.

[tex]\frac{12}{x} = \frac{3}{4}\\\\12\cdot4=48\\\\48\div3=16[/tex]

Hope this helped!

Answer 2
12 * 4 = 48
48 \ 3= 16

Write a equation representing the area Bruce covered, y, in terms of the number of tiles he used,x.

Answers

Answer: y = 4x

Step by step explanation:

If each tile is ¼ of a square foot then y (in terms of square feet) will be equal to x / 4 meaning that the equation would be y = 4x

A equation representing the area Bruce covered, y, in terms of the number of tiles he used x is y = 4x

What is equation?

An equation is a mathematical statement that is made up of two expressions connected by an equal sign. For example, 3x – 5 = 16 is an equation

According to the question

The area Bruce covered  shows by y axis

The number of tiles he used is x axis .

The tiles Bruce used is 1/4 of a square foot in area .

Therefore,

Area of tiles in square foot = 4 number of titles

The 16 cases will fit the box as shown.

Step-by-step explanation:

One disk case has the dimensions 14.2 cm by 19.3 cm, with thickness 1.6 cm.

Temporarily ignoring the 14.2 cm and 19.3 cm measurements, we multiply this 1.6 cm thickness by 16, obtaining a total thickness for the stack of cases of 25.6 cm.  

1) The 16 cases, arranged as shown, and measuring 25.6 cm from left to right in this diagram, will fit within the 26 cm horizontal distance shown.

2) The horizontal length of each case is 14.2 cm.  Stacked as shown, the 16 cases will fit within the 15 cm depth of the box.

3) The vertical measurement of each case is 19.3 cm.  The 20 cm vertical measurement of the box can accommodate this 19.3 height within 20 cm.

All indications are that the 16 cases will fit comfortably inside the box.

g(x) { (x-1)(x+2) , x = -1

x^3 - x^2 + 1 , x is not equal to -2, -1

What is g(1) ???

Answers

Answer: g(1) is 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we are solving for g of 1  then the first equation can't be used to solve for g of 1 because it only works in x is equal to -2.

The same way the second function will not work because x has to equal to -1.

But in the last function which is written as a polynomial it will work for this situation because x is not equal to -2 or -1 so apart from those numbers every number will work the same way 1 will work.    

So plot 1 into the function and solve for it .

g(1) = 1^3 - 1^2 + 1  

g(1)=  1 - 1 + 1

g(1)= 1

G(1) is 1. 1 is the answer to your question

The entire distance from his home to the office was 169.5 if the executive spent the same amount of time in the car as he did the helicopter how long did it take the executive to get to work

Answers

Answer:

3 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed is the ratio of distance traveled to time taken, it is given as:

Speed = distance / time

An executive drove from his home at an average speed of 35 mph to an airport where a helicopter was waiting. He then took the helicopter and flew to the corporate offices at an average speed of 78 mph. Given that the executive spent the same amount of time in the car as he did the helicopter how long did it take the executive to get to work.

Let the amount of time the executive spent in the car be t hours, therefore the amount of time spent in the helicopter = t hours.

For car:

Speed = distance / time

35 = distance ([tex]d_1[/tex]) / t

[tex]d_1=35t[/tex]

For helicopter:

Speed = distance / time

78 = distance ([tex]d_2[/tex]) / t

[tex]d_2=78t[/tex]

The total distance traveled = 169.5 miles

[tex]d_1+d_2=169.5\\35t+78t=169.5\\113t=169.5\\t=169.5/113\\t=1.5\ hours[/tex]

The time taken for the executive to get to work = time spent on car + time spent on helicopter = 1.5 + 1.5 = 3 hours

Your right answer will be is B. The discriminant is equal to 0, which means the equation has one real number solution.

For this case we have the following quadratic equation:

2x^2 - 8x + = 0

Where:

a = 2

B = -8

c = 8

The discriminant is given by:

d = b^2 - 4(a)(c)

Substituting the values we have:

d = (-8)^2 - 4(2)(8)

d = 64 - 64

d = 0

So, Your best answer choice is B.

[tex]$\[x^2 + 22x + 121\]$[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]$\[x^2 + 22x + \underline{~~~~}.\]$[/tex]

Required

Fill in the gap

Represent the blank with k

[tex]$\[x^2 + 22x + k\]$[/tex]

Solving for k...

To do this, we start by getting the coefficient of x

Coefficient of x = 22

Divide the coefficient by 2

[tex]Result = 22/2[/tex]

[tex]Result = 11[/tex]

Take the square of this result, to give k

[tex]k= 11^2[/tex]

[tex]k= 121[/tex]

Substitute 121 for k

[tex]$\[x^2 + 22x + 121\]$[/tex]

The expression can be factorized as follows;

[tex]x^2 + 11x + 11x + 121[/tex]

[tex]x(x + 11)+11(x+11)[/tex]

[tex](x+11)(x+11)[/tex]

kristen and melissa spent 35% of their $32 on movie tickets. how much money did they spend

Answers

Answer:

11.2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Kristina and Melissa had 32$ at total

● 32$ => 100%

They have spent 35%

Let x be that amount

● x => 35%

●32 => 100

● x => 35

● x = (35×32)/100 = 11.2$

They have spent 11.2$

Answer:

They spent $20.80

Step-by-step explanation:

Since they had $32 and spent 35% of it you would do 32 * 35%

 then you would get 11.2

now that is not the answer because that is just what 35% of 32 is

to get the answer you would then subtract 11.2 from 32 to get 20.8

and since this is a matter of money you would write 20.8 as $20.80.

adults and 2 children she paid a total of $110. What was the admission price for an adult ticket and how
much was it for the admission price for a child ticket?
Let a represent adult ticket price
Let c represent child ticket price

Answers

Answer:

Child ticket = $16.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let adult tickets = a;

child ticket = c.

2a + c = 94 — eq no. 1,

2a + 2c = 110 — eq no. 2,

then,from eq 1,

c = 94 - 2a. —eq no. 3.

Substitute eq 3 into eq 2,

2a + 2(94 - 2a) = 110

2a - 4a = 110 - 188

-2a /-2 = -78 / -2

a = 39.

Substitute value of a into eq 3,

c = 94 - 2(39)

= 94 - 78

c = 16.

Thus, child ticket = $16.

Child= $16 and Adult= $39
Because, for the first family 39a+16c= $94 total for that family and just do the math for the other one :)
