Answer 1

Answer: [tex]\dfrac{1}{5}+\dfrac{1}{2}=\dfrac{7}{10}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

A or B = A+B

Given: In a fish tank, [tex]\dfrac15[/tex] of the fish are guppies and [tex]\dfrac{1}{12}[/tex] of the fish are goldfish.

Then,  the fraction of the fish that are guppies or goldfish in the tank=[tex]\dfrac{1}{5}+\dfrac{1}{2}=\dfrac{2+5}{5\times2}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{7}{10}[/tex]

Hence, the equation most closely estimates the fraction of the fish that are guppies or goldfish in the tank:

[tex]\dfrac{1}{5}+\dfrac{1}{2}=\dfrac{7}{10}[/tex]

A boy weighing blank kilograms is riding a skateboard. He’s moving at 2 meters/second and has 40 joules of kinetic energy. He doubles his speed when he sees his friends ahead of him. His kinetic energy at the faster speed is blank joules.

Answers

Answer:

His kinetic energy at the faster speed is 160 J

Step-by-step explanation:

Here in this question, we are interested in calculating the kinetic energy at the faster speed.

Firstly, we need to know the mass of the boy’s body. We can do this by using the kinetic energy formula;

Mathematically;

K.E = 1/2 * m * v^2

From the question;

K.E = 40 Joules

m = ?

v = speed = 2 m/s

Now, plugging these values into the kinetic energy equation, we have;

40 = 1/2 * m * 2^2

40 = 1/2 * m * 4

40 = 4m/2

4m = 40 * 2

4m = 80

m = 80/4

m = 20 kg

Now that we know the mass of the boy’s body, we can proceed to calculate the new K.E

Let’s follow the third statement in the question;

We were told that he doubles his speed upon sighting his friend.

Recall, he was traveling at a speed of 2 m/s.

Now doubling this means the new speed will

be 2 * 2 = 4 m/s

Now, we want to calculate the kinetic energy value at this new speed.

Mathematically, we use the same formula for kinetic energy.

K.E = 1/2 * m * v^2

We know that m is the mass that we calculated as 20kg and our v here is 4 m/s

Plugging these values, we have;

K.E = 1/2 * 20 * 4^2

K.E = (20 * 16)/2

K.E = 320/2

K.E = 160 J

Answer:

A boy weighing 20 kilograms is riding a skateboard. He’s moving at 2 meters/second and has 40 joules of kinetic energy. He doubles his speed when he sees his friends ahead of him. His kinetic energy at the faster speed is 160 joules.

y= 7x - 9

slope= 7

y-int.= -9

y= 3x - 1

slope 3

y-int.= -1

7x-9 = 3x-1

Add 9 to both sides: 7x = 3x +8

Subtract 3 from both sides: 4x = 8

Divide by 4 on both sides: x =2

Substitute 8 into the equation: y = 3(2) -1

y = 5

Answers

Answer:2/6, 7/21, 15/45

Step-by-step explanation:

So we know that 6,21,45 are all multiples of 3

To find the numerator we have to divide each multiple by 3

so for the first one it would be 6/3 which is 2. So 2 is the numerator and the answer for the first one is 2/6

now we have to do the same method for the next fraction so we do 21/3=7

so the numerator is 7 and the fraction is 7/21

now for the last one we have to do the same method again

45/3=15 so the numerator is 15 and the answer is 15/45

You can use this method for any question like this

so the final answers are 1/3=2/6=7/21=15/45

Answers

Answer:

Because <CBD is an inscribed angle and <CAD is a central angle with the same intercepted arc, m<CBD = 55°, or half of the measure of <CAD.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Inscribed Angle Theorem proves that an inscribed angle is half the measure of a central angle, if both the inscribed angle and the central angle intercepts the same arc.

Also, according to the inscribed angle theorem, an inscribed angle is ½ of the measure of the arc it intercepts.

Therefore, m<CBD is half of m<CAD, or half of the measure of the arc CD that they both intercept together.

Thus, m<CBD = 55°, which is ½ of m<arc CD.

m<arc CD = 110° = m<CAD.

m<CBD = ½ of m<CAD = 55°.

The statement that best describes the relationship between <CBD and <CAD is "Because <CBD is an inscribed angle and <CAD is a central angle with the same intercepted arc, m<CBD = 55°, or half of the measure of <CAD."

Answers

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

In each case, you are looking for time. We know speed is distance divided by time. Lets start with the speed formula.

speed = distance/time

Now we solve it for time. Multiply both sides  by time and divide both sides by speed.

speed * time = distance

time = distance/speed

Time is distance divided by speed. In each problem, you have a speed and a distance. Divide the distance by the speed to to find the time.

1) speed = 44.1 km/h; distance = 150 km

time = distance/speed = 150 km/(44.1 km/h) =

= 3.401 hours = 3 hours + 0.401 hour * 60 min/hour = 3 hours 24 minutes

2) speed = 120 km/h; distance = 90 km

time = distance/speed = 90 km/(120 km/h) =

= 0.75 hours = 0.75 hour * 60 min/hour = 45 minutes

What effect will replacing x with (x – 7)have on the graph of the equation y = = (x + 4)??
A. slides the graph 3 units down
B. slides the graph 3 units up
C. slides the graph 7 units right
D. slides the graph 3 units right

Answers

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

When you graph the first equation y = (x + 4) it will have a x-intercept of -4 and a y-intercept of 4.  

When you replace x with (x-7) the equation will be converted into

y = ((x-7)+4)

y = x-3

When you graph this you see it has a x-intercept of 3 and a y-intercept of -3

To find the distance add the 2 x values together:

-4 + (-3) = ?

-4 -3 = ?

-7 = ?

Therefore the graph will shift units right

Answer:

y=2x-5

Step-by-step explanation:

First simplify: y-1=2x-6

y-1=2(x-3)

First simplify and distribute everything.

y-1=2x-6

So, x equals 2 because it got distributed into the numbers inside the parenthesis.  Same with the 2 and -3.  They multiplied to become -6.

Since it's y-1=2x-6, you can simplify it even more so the -1 goes to the other side and turns into positive 1.

y - 1 (+ 1) = 2x -6 (+ 1)

-1(+1)=0 which leaves just the variable y on the left side.

-6(+1)=-5 which leaves 2x-5 on the right side.

This results in y=2x-5.  Hope this helped ;)

Answer:

y = 2x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

y - 1 = 2(x - 3)

y - 1 = 2x - 6

y - 1 + 1 = 2x -6 + 1

y = 2x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex] \frac{7xy}{ {x}^{2} - 4x + 4 } \div \frac{14y}{x^{2} - 4} [/tex]

To simplify , factorize

x² - 4x + 4 and x² - 4

For x² - 4x + 4

Write - 4x as a difference

x² - 2x - 2x + 4

x( x - 2) - 2(x - 2)

(x - 2)(x - 2)

For x² - 4

use the formula

a² - b² = ( a+b)( a - b)

That's

x² - 4 = (x + 2)(x - 2)

So now we have

[tex] \frac{7xy}{(x - 2)(x - 2)} \div \frac{14y}{(x + 2)(x - 2)} [/tex]

Change the division sign to multiplication sign and reverse the second fraction

That's

Simplify

We have

[tex] \frac{x}{(x - 2)(x - 2)} \times \frac{(x + 2)(x - 2)}{2} [/tex]

Reduce the expression with x + 2

That's

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

Multiply the fractions

Answers

Answer:

x = 60/83

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

10 - (83 x)/6 = 0

Put each term in 10 - (83 x)/6 over the common denominator 6: 10 - (83 x)/6 = 60/6 - (83 x)/6:

60/6 - (83 x)/6 = 0

60/6 - (83 x)/6 = (60 - 83 x)/6:

(60 - 83 x)/6 = 0

Multiply both sides of (60 - 83 x)/6 = 0 by 6:

(6 (60 - 83 x))/6 = 6×0

(6 (60 - 83 x))/6 = 6/6×(60 - 83 x) = 60 - 83 x:

60 - 83 x = 6×0

0×6 = 0:

60 - 83 x = 0

Subtract 60 from both sides:

(60 - 60) - 83 x = -60

60 - 60 = 0:

-83 x = -60

Divide both sides of -83 x = -60 by -83:

(-83 x)/(-83) = (-60)/(-83)

(-83)/(-83) = 1:

x = (-60)/(-83)

Multiply numerator and denominator of (-60)/(-83) by -1:

P=0.80n + 5.50
What is the price for 10 balls, not including the
entrance fee?
$....

Answers

Answer:

$8

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, Let us identify the variables in the functions.

The function states that for every n ball, the price is $0.80. Plus the $5.50.

Now that we know what the function stands for, we can substitute 10 into n, and remove the entrance fee of $5.50.

P=0.80n

This gives us $8, which means the price for 10 balls not including the entrance fee is $8.

SP=2x+3, and LN=5x−14. Find SP. A. 20 B. 86 C. 43 D. 50

Answers

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

A segment joining the midpoints of two sides of a triangle is half the length of the third side.

SP is a midline segment, thus

SP = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] LN , that is

2x + 3 = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] (5x - 14) ← multiply both sides by 2

4x + 6 = 5x - 14 ( subtract 4x from both sides )

6 = x - 14 ( add 14 to both sides )

20 = x

Thus

SP = 2x + 3 = 2(20) + 3 = 40 + 3 = 43 → C

The unit rate is how much stuff there is per 1 unit. All ratios can be rewritten as fractions, this one could be 0.2/0.5. The word per means divide, and fractions are basically dividing. So, we want the denominator to be 1.

To get 0.5 to 1, we multiply by 2. So, we will multiply the fraction by 2/2.

0.2/0.5(2/2)=0.4/1

Therefore, the unit rate is 0.4/1 or 0.4:1 or 0.4 per 1.
