What value of a makes the equation true

What Value Of A Makes The Equation True

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is -2.

Step-by-step explanation:

it is -2 because if you replaced -2 with a you would have -2 minus 1.5 which is -0.5. -0.5 multiplied by 3 gets you -1.5.

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3(a + 1.5) = -1.5

3a + 3*1.5 = -1.5

3a + 4.5 = -1.5

Subtract 4.5 from both sides

3a + 4.5 - 4.5 = -1.5 - 4.5

3a +0 = - 6.0

3a = - 6

Divide both sides by 3

3a/3 = -6/3

a = -2

There are 12 students in a class: 7 boys and 5 girls. If the teacher picks a group of 5 at random, what is the probability that everyone in the group is a boy?

Answers

Answer:

0.027

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of groups of 5 boys that we can have from 7 boys is 7C5 = 21

The number of groups of 5 boys that we can have from 12 students is

12C5 = 792

then the probability = 21/792 = 0.026515151515

by the way you can calculate 12C5 and 7C5 using a calculator.

How much will the guitar be worth in 10 years?

Answers

Answer:

$44487

Step-by-step explanation:

If you plug in 10 for t, you are left with the following equation:

[tex]V=12000(1.14)^{10}=12000\cdot 3.7072\approx 44487[/tex]. Hope this helps!

Answer: $44,487

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, substitute t (the variable for time in the equation) with 10 to represent the value of the guitar after 10 years.

[tex]V = 12000(1.14)^{10}\\V = 12000*3.7072\\\\V = 44487[/tex]

The guitar will be worth $44,487 in 10 years.

The function g(n) = n2 − 16n + 69 represents a parabola.

Part A: Rewrite the function in vertex form by completing the square. Show your work. (6 points)

Part B: Determine the vertex and indicate whether it is a maximum or a minimum on the graph. How do you know? (2 points)

Part C: Determine the axis of symmetry for g(n). (2 points)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A) y + ? = n^2 - 16n + ? + 69

y + 64 = n^2 -16n + 64 + 69

y + 64 = (n-8)^2 + 69

y = (n-8)^2 + 5

B) vertex is (8,5) because the value of a vertex is always (h,k) from the parent vertex function:

y = a(x-h) + k

it's a minimum only because the (a) value is positive

C) axis of symmetry = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello there i hope you are having a great day :) Your Question : Michael has $10 in his savings account. Option 1 will add $100 to his account each week. Option 2 will double the amount in his account at the end of each week. Michael wants to have at least $700 in his account at the end of 7 weeks to buy a mountain bike. Answer : So the first Michael has $10 in hes saving account. Option 1 puts $100 in each week so 7 weeks would equal to 7 weeks x $100 = $700 that would equal the amount for the bike in 7 weeks or Option 2 Will double the amount in hes account each week so $10 x 2 = $20. 1 week $20 2 week $40 3 week $80 4 week $120 5 week $240 6 week $480 7 week $960. So the Option two Is the best one as Option one would equal to $700 and Option two $960 that would equal left over $260. Hopefully that helps you ❤

elijah's credit card statement showed these items: Last Balance Payments Finance Rate New Charges $152.58 $45.00 1.5% $213.40 What is Elijah's new balance? $320.98 $322.59 $323.27 $397.51

Answers

Answer:

Option A,$320.98  is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

The new balance on Elijah's credit is the sum of the last balance plus new charges minus payments made.

last balance as shown by the statement was $152.58

new charges were $213.40

payment made by Elijah was  $45

new balance=$152.58+$213.40-$45=$320.98

The rationale for this is that the new charges on the card account add to previous balance owed by Elijah while the payment of $45 made reduces overall balance.

Answer:

Other answer is incorrect. Elijah's new balance would be $322.59

Pythagorean Theorem: How many yards will the players have to run?

Answers

Answer:

≈ 125.3

Step-by-step explanation:

If we're using the Pythagorean Theorem to solve this, then the formula is:

[tex]a^{2}+ b^{2} =c^{2}[/tex]

So basically, by using this formula, you're finding the length that the soccer players will run diagonally. Plug in the numbers:

[tex]110^2 + 60^2 = c^2[/tex]

12100 + 3600 = [tex]c^2[/tex]

15700 = [tex]c^2[/tex]

Take the square root:

15700 = [tex]c^2[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{15700} = \sqrt{c^2}[/tex]

125.3 ≈ c

Any smooth curve connecting two points is called an arc. The length of arc s to the nearest tenth is 10.5 in.

What is the Length of an Arc?

Any smooth curve connecting two points is called an arc. The arc length is the measurement of how long an arc is. The length of an arc is given by the formula,

[tex]\rm{ Length\ of\ an\ Arc = 2\times \pi \times(radius)\times\dfrac{\theta}{360} = 2\pi r \times \dfrac{\theta}{2\pi}[/tex]

where θ is the angle, which arc creates at the center of the circle in degree.

The length of the given arc s, with an angle made at the center equal to (2/3)π and radius of 5 inches can be represented as,

[tex]\text{Length of Arc} = 2\pi r \times \dfrac{\theta}{2\pi}[/tex]

[tex]\text{Length of Arc s} = 2\pi \times (5)\times \dfrac{\frac23\pi}{2\pi}[/tex]

                        [tex]=10.472\approx 10.5\rm\ in[/tex]

Thus, the length of arc s to the nearest tenth is 10.5 in.
