Your friend tried putting away the sugar for you and cannot get the 14 cups of sugar to fit in the containers! They determined you would need 9 containers to store the 14 cups of sugar.

They show you their calculations:



Answer the following questions.

What mistake did your friend make in calculating the number of containers needed?
*Hint* Look closely at the work shown to find the mistake

How many containers are needed to store the leftover sugar?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

21 containers

Step-by-step explanation:

When dividing fractions, you can multiply by the inverse of the fraction. For example, in this case, [tex]14 divided by \frac{2}{3} = \frac{14}{1}x\frac{3}{2}[/tex]. Whoever drew the calculations made the mistake of forgetting to flip the second fraction.

The actual solution of the problem is 42/2, or 21/1. 21 containers are needed to store the sugar.

Answer:

-40

Step-by-step explanation:

Inputs are the x values and outputs are the y values. To find the output of a function, substitute the chosen value for x.

For instance, when the input is 5:

[tex]-7(5)-5\\-35-5\\-40[/tex]

Then, the output is -40.

13 = 1/6y +2x plz help

Answers

Answer:

in standard form - y+12x=78

in slope intercept form - y=-12x+78

Step-by-step explanation:

standard form

13=1/6y+2x

multiply both sides by 6

78=y+12x

y+12x=78

slope intercept

13=1/6y+2x

subtract 1/6y from both sides

13-1/6y=2x

subtract 13 from both sides

-1/6y=2x-13

change the signs on both sides of the equation

1/6y=-2x+13

divide both sides by 1/6

y=-12x+78

3. Consider the iterative rules you wrote in Problem 2. (a) Explain why the rules are functions. (b) Your friend says that because the rules are functions, they can be graphed and must have y-intercepts. How would you respond to your friend’s comment? (c) Your friend uses your rules to determine the outputs when the inputs are 18.5. Explain why her outputs are meaningless in this situation. What would you tell her about the inputs she can use? Answer:

Answers

The inputs which are required mention below in descriptive.

What is Function?

The functions are the special types of relations. A function in math is visualized as a rule, which gives a unique output for every input x. Mapping or transformation is used to denote a function in math.

(a) The rules are functions because each input has only one output. You can test this out, it's true.

(b) So we did have to find the "y-intercept" earlier. But you have to look at the domain. There won't be any amount paid on Week 0, payment starts at Week 1. So you would have to respond that yes, they can be graphed, but there's no y-intercept; the graph starts at week 1. Additionally, there are only data points at the integer values of x. Look at part c.

(c) The outputs are meaningless because you're counting the time by weeks. There won't be any amount paid in the middle of the week, so she can only use integer inputs.

1) These angles are actually equal so set the equation to…
58=5x-2
60=5x
X=12


2) These angles are also equal to each other
16x+22=134
16x=112
X=7


3) These angles are equal too
7x-1=125
7x=126
X=18


4) These angles are supplementary so they add to 180 degrees
9x+2+133=180
9x+135=180
9x=45
X=5


5) These angles are equal as well
8x-77=3x+38
5x-77=38
5x=115
X=23


6) These angles are also equal
11x-47=6x-2
5x-47=-2
5x=45
X=9


7) these also sum to 180
13x-21+5x+75=180
18x+54=180
18x=126
X=7


8) These angles add to 180 as well
9x-33+5x+3=180
14x-30=180
14x=210
X=15

In conclusion, just know how to solve simple one variable equation and know which angles are congruent and supplementary and this will be easy.

What is the length of the missing side, to the nearest tenth of a centimeter?

Answers

Answer:

18.4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem, you would use Pythagorean Theorem or a^2+b^2=c^2. Don't forget that the c in the formula is always your hypotenuse or the longest side of the triangle. The a and the b are always the legs of the triangle. (It doesn't matter which leg is which letter) The hypotenuse is also always across from the 90 degree angle. Picture the 90 degree angle as an arrow pointing to the hypotenuse.  In this case, the hypotenuse (or c) is 20.7 cm. Now all you have to do is plug and chug! I hope this helps you and thanks for asking your question!!

2.9. What is the equation of a line parallel to 3x + 4 = y and passing through
(4,-2)?
A. 3x + 10 = y
B. 3x – 14 = y
C. -*-=y
D. --*x+10=y

Answers

Hello! (:

3x+4=y

We want to convert it into slope-intercept form:

y=mx+b

Our equation looks like this:

y=3x+4

Now, parallel lines have the same slope. So if one line has a slope of 3, the line parallel to it has a slope of 3 as well.

Now, we have the slope and a point, so we write the equation in point-slope form:

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-(-2)=3(x-4)

y+2=3x-12

y=3x-12-2

y=3x-14

Hence, that is the required equation, Hope it helps you!

Liam invests $3,670 in a savings account at his local bank which gives 1.9% simple annual interest. He also invests $2,040 in an online savings account which gives 5.5% simple annual interest. After five years, which one will have earned more interest, and how much more interest will it have earned, to the nearest dollar?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Investment P₁ = $3670Investment P₂ = $2040Rate of interest r₁ = 1.9% SIRate of interest r₂ = 5.5% SITime t = 5 years

Find amount of interest in both investments:

I₁ = P₁r₁t = $3670*(1.9/100)*5 = $348.65I₂ = P₂r₂t = $2040*(5.5/100)*5 = $561.00

As we see the online savings account earns more interest and the difference is:

$561.00 - $348.65 = $212.35 ≈ $212
