Harley was eating pizza and had already eaten six pieces before his sister, Samantha, got home. Samantha was worried that she was not going to get a fair share of the pizza and wanted to know how many pieces were in the pizza originally. Harley told her, "I have only eaten 3/8 of the pizza. How many slices where in the pizza when it was whole

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

16 pieces of pizza when the pizza was whole.

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that 6 pieces are equal to 3/8 of the pizza.

Let x represent the total number of pieces and write an equation:

3

-- times x = 6

8

Multiply each side of the equation by 8:

8 times 3

            -- x = 8 times 6

            8

3x = 48

Divide each side of the equation by 3:

3x     48

---  =  ---

3        3

x = 16

You  are looking for points on the x-y plane which satisfy the equation y = 5/2x + 3/2, and these point are all those that lie on the graph of the equation which are points (x,y) = (x, 5/2x + 3/2)

If you are looking at the other choices you could see that B only gives you 3 points and even if they are on the graph of y the choice cannot be the answer

D is the same like B

Choice C is just the whole of x-y plane  so this cannot be the answer because not every point on the x-y plane is a Solution to y=5/2x+3/2

A pencil holder shaped like a triangular prisms height is 12 cm, and the volume of the pencil holder is 216 cm3. What is the area of the base of the pencil holder in square centimeters

Answers

Answer:

The area of the base of the pencil holder in square centimeters is  18 square centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a triangular prism is given as base area X height.

To get the base area, we can quickly shuffle the order of the terms to make sure that the base area is the subject of the formula.

Base area = volume of prism / height

Base area = 216/12 = 18 square centimeters

Therefore, the area of the base of the pencil holder in square centimeters is = 18 square centimeters

If the sides of a triangle have the following lengths, find a range of possible values for x.

LM = 6x + 3, MN = 4x - 17, LN = x + 40

Answers

Answer:

The range of possible values of x are;

x > 6

Step-by-step explanation:

To form a triangle, the length of two sides must be greater than the third side

Thus;

6x + 3 + 4x-17 > x + 40

6x + 4x-14 > x + 40

10x-14 > x + 40

10x-x > 40 + 14

9x > 54

x > 54/9

x > 6

Can whoever answers this give a full explanation of what numbers i'm supposed to put (screenshot is there)

Answers

Long division is easier than you think. Here's how to solve this problem:

1. See how many times 36 can go into 66.

Multiply until you reach a number that is closest (or exact) to 66.

36 x 1 = 36; 36 x 2 = 72.

72 is over 66, so 2 doesn't work. Therefore, we'd put "1" in the first space on the shelf (right above the 6).

2. Subtract.

Now that we have "1" on the shelf, you need to subtract 36 by 66. We do this because 36 x 1 is 36. If it were the number "2" on the shelf, we'd subtract 72, and so on.

66 - 36 = 30.

3. See how many times 36 can go into 30.

Since it can't go into 30, we bring the 3 down (hence the arrow pointing down). The number is now 303.

4. See how many times 36 can go into 303.

I won't write it all out, but after multiplying 1-7 by 36, we find that the closest solution is 36 x 8 = 288.

We put "8" on the shelf, next to "1".

5. Subtract.

Now that "8" is on the shelf, we subtract 288 by 303, which gives us 15.

Since 36 cannot go into 15, and there are no more numbers we can drag down, your remainder is 15.

Your answer is:

36 R 15

The first two boxes under 663 should be filled with 36, the next three under that should have 303, the next three should have 288, and the final two boxes should have 15.

I hope this helped!

Point P is the center of the circle in the figure above. What is the value of x?

Answers

Answer:

x = 80°

Step-by-step explanation:

To find x, we need to create an equation.

Recall that the sum of all the 4 interior angles of a quadrilateral = 360°.

Therefore:

m<B + m<A + m<C + m<P = 360°

m<B = 20° (given)

m<C = 20° (given)

m<A = ½*x = x/2 (inscribed angle theorem)

m<P = (360 - x)°

Plug in the values and solve for x

[tex] 20 + \frac{x}{2} + 20 + (360 - x) = 360 [/tex]

[tex] 20 + \frac{x}{2} + 20 + 360 - x = 360 [/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex] 20 + 20 + 360 + \frac{x}{2} - x = 360 [/tex]

[tex] 400 + \frac{x}{2} - x = 360 [/tex]

Subtract 400 from each side

[tex] 400 + \frac{x}{2} - x - 400 = 360 - 400 [/tex]

[tex] \frac{x}{2} - x = -40 [/tex]

[tex] \frac{x - 2x}{2} = -40 [/tex]

[tex] \frac{-x}{2} = -40 [/tex]

Multiply both sides by 2

[tex] \frac{-x}{2} \times 2 = -40 \times 2 [/tex]

[tex] -x = -80 [/tex]

Divide both sides by -1

[tex] \frac{-x}{-1} = \frac{-80}{-1} [/tex]

[tex] x = 80 [/tex]

I need help with my homework this is hard pls help thx!
z=m-x solve for x

Answers

Answer:

x = m - z

Step-by-step explanation:

z = m - x       add x to both sides

z + x = m - x + x

z + x = m            subtract z from both sides

z - z + x = m - z

x = m - z

Answer:

-z + m = x

Step-by-step explanation:

z = m-x

subtract the m from both sides

z-m = -x

you can't have a negative x so multiply everything by -1

-1(z-m = -x)

-z + m = x
