Tomas is making trail mix using granola and walnuts. He can spend a total of $12 on the ingredients. He buys 3 pounds of granola that costs $2.00 per pound. The walnuts cost $6 per pound. He uses the equation to represent the total cost, where x represents the number of pounds of granola and y represents the number of pounds of walnuts. He solves the equation for y, the number of pounds of walnuts he can buy.

Answer- B Tomas added 6 to both sides of the equation instead of subtracting 6.
just took the test

Answers

Answer 1
Final answer:

Tomas should subtract 2x from both sides of the equation, not add 6.

Explanation:

In the given question, Tomas is buying granola and walnuts and he can spend a total of $12 on the ingredients.

He buys 3 pounds of granola that costs $2.00 per pound, and the walnuts cost $6 per pound.

The equation he uses to represent the total cost is: y = 12 - 2x, where x represents the number of pounds of granola and y represents the number of pounds of walnuts.

To solve the equation for y, Tomas should subtract 2x from both sides, not add.

This will give the correct equation for the number of pounds of walnuts he can buy.

Therefore, the correct equation is: y = 12 - 2x.

Answers

Squares 1 and 2 have the same area because they're both (a+b) on a side.

Each of these squares is covered by four identical right triangle tiles, legs a,b, hypotenuse c.  

In the first picture we see the uncovered part of the square, not covered by triangular tiles, is two squares, area [tex]a^2+b^2[/tex].

In the second picture the uncovered part of the square is a smaller square, area [tex]c^2[/tex].

We just moved the tiles around on the square, so the uncovered part is the same in both cases.  So

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

Step-by-step explanation:

SSS means: side - side - side

This means that when you look at the two triangles, in this case ABC and ADC their sides MUST be corresponding to be congruent (equal). This is easily identifiable by the tics or little dash marks you see on the triangles. If the dashes correspond to the same sides (hence side-side-side rule) then the theorem is proven correct and the triangles of congruent. Take a look at the attached image for an example :D

5(x-4)+3x-9x=6-(2x+5)+8x

Answers

Answer:

The value of x is -3

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve the given equation and find value of x

5(x-4)+3x-9x=6-(2x+5)+8x

First solving the brackets

5x-20+3x-9x = 6-2x-5+8x

Now combining the like terms,

5x+3x-9x-20 = -2x+8x+6-5

8x-9x-20 = 6x +1

-x-20=6x+1

Now moving x terms on one side and constants on other

6x+x=-20-1

7x = -21

Dividing both sides by 7

7x/7 = -21/7

x = -3

So, the value of x is -3

At a busy street corner, one of every hundred jaywalkers will be hit when they cross. What is the probability of a jaywalker not being hit if he makes a round trip daily for thirty days? (0.01)30 (0.99)30 (0.9801)30

Answers

Answer: Last option

[tex]p = (0.9801) ^ {30}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

the probability of a jaywalker being hit is

[tex]P = \frac{1}{100} = 0.01[/tex].

So the probability of a jaywalker not being hit is:

[tex]P '= 1-0.01[/tex]

[tex]P '= 0.99[/tex]

As in this experiment the probability of each trial is independent then, the probability that it is not a jaywalker will not be hit if it makes a round trip is:

[tex]P '= (0.99) (0.99) = 0.9801[/tex]

[tex]P '= 0.9801[/tex]

If this experiment is repeated for 30 days then the probability that it is not a jaywalker will not be hit if it makes a round trip is:

Gregory has 2/3 of an entire pizza. If he gives 1/4 of an entire pizza to his friend Marlene, what fraction of his partial pizza did he give to Marlene?

Answers

Final answer:

Gregory has 2/3 of a pizza and gives 1/4 of an entire pizza to Marlene. By converting the fractions to a common denominator, we find that he gives away 3/8 of his portion of the pizza to Marlene.

Explanation:

Understanding fractions can sometimes be as easy as picturing how you would slice a pie and share it with friends.

Gregory has 2/3 of an entire pizza and decides to give 1/4 of an entire pizza to his friend Marlene.

To solve how much of his portion Gregory gives to Marlene, we need to figure out what fraction 1/4 represents out of the 2/3 that Gregory has.

If we think of the pizza being cut into 12 slices (since 12 is a common multiple of both 3 and 4), Gregory's 2/3 is equivalent to 8/12 of the pizza because (2/3) × (12/1) = 8/12.

Similarly, 1/4 of the pizza is equivalent to 3/12 of the pizza because (1/4) × (12/1) = 3/12.

Now we know that Gregory aims to give away 3/12 of the pizza, but we want to express this as a part of his original 8/12.

To find out what fraction of his part he gives away, we then calculate (3/12) ÷ (8/12).

When we divide these fractions, we can multiply by the reciprocal of the second fraction:

(3/12) × (12/8), which simplifies to 3/8.

Therefore, Gregory gives away 3/8 of his 2/3 of the pizza to Marlene.

An image of a parabolic lens is projected onto a graph.The y-intercept of the graph is (0, 90), and the zeros are 5 and 9. Which equation models the function? y = 90(x – 5)(x – 9) y = 2(x – 5)(x – 9) y = 90(x + 5)(x + 9) y = 2(x + 5)(x + 9)

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

If the zeros are 5 and 9, then the equation will have the form:

y = a (x–5) (x–9)

We know the point (0, 90) is on the curve, so we can use this to find the coefficient a:

90 = a (0–5) (0–9)

In a triangle ABC, AD is the bisector of angle A ....If AB=5.6cm ,AC=4cm and DC=3cm, find BD and DC


PLS HELP ME ​

Answers

Step-by-step answer:

Given:

In a triangle ABC, AD is the bisector of angle A ....If AB=5.6cm ,AC=4cm and DC=3cm, find BD and DC

This problem can be solved by direct application of the angle bisector theorem, which states that the division of the side opposite to the bisected angles is proportional to the respective sides.

Here we have:

Bisector: AD

Side divided: DC = 3 cm

Length of AB = 5.6

Length of AC = 4.0

Then BD = AB/AC * DC = 5.6/4.0 * 3 = 4.2

BC = BD+DC = 4.2+3 = 7.2

B. Place the compass at the point off the ground, and swing arcs above and below the ground.

C. Place the compass at the point off the ground, and swing an arc that intersects the ground in one place.

D. Place the compass at the point off the ground, and swing an arc that intersects the ground in two places.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

D is correct.  The idea here is to ensure that the point on the post is equidistant from the bottom of the post (where it meets the ground), which in turn ensures that the angle between ground and post is 90° in at least two places on the ground.

The step that Sam must take first in order to make sure that the post of the fence is to the bottom of the ground would be:

D). "Place the compass at the point off the ground, and swing an arc that intersects the ground in two places."

In the given situation, Sam is required to locate the compass away from the ground so that the arc created divides the ground into two equal and equidistant places. Since the point framed on the post would be at an equal distance from its bottom, the angle formed among them(post, as well as, ground) would be a right angle or perpendicular.Thus, option D states a true claim regarding the precise placement of the compass to get the desired angle i.e. 90°  for at least two locations.

1. Find the product (13 – x2)(x + 2).
-x3 - 2x2 + 13x + 26

Answers

Answer:

The product is -x³ - 2x² + 13x + 26

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise how to find the product of two binomials

- If (ax ± b) and (cx ± d) are two binomials, where a , b , c , d are constant

 their product is:

# Multiply (ax) by (cx) ⇒ 1st term in the 1st binomial and 1st term in the

  2nd binomial

# Multiply (ax) by (d) ⇒ 1st term in 1st binomial and 2nd term in

  2nd binomial

# Multiply (b) by (cx) ⇒ 2nd term in 1st binomial and 1st term in

  2nd binomial

# Multiply (b) by (d) ⇒ 2nd term in 1st binomial and 2nd term in

  2nd binomial

# (ax ± b)(cx ± d) = cx² ± adx ± bcx ± bd

- Add the terms adx and bcx because they are like terms

* Now lets solve the problem

- There are two binomials (13 - x²) and (x + 2)

- We can find their product by the way above

∵ (13)(x) = 13x ⇒ 1st term in the 1st binomial and 1st term in the

  2nd binomial

∵ (13)(2) = 26 ⇒ 1st term in 1st binomial and 2nd term in

  2nd binomial

∵ (-x²)(x) = -x³ ⇒ 2nd term in 1st binomial and 1st term in

  2nd binomial

∵ (-x²)(2) = -2x² ⇒ 2nd term in 1st binomial and 2nd term in

  2nd binomial

∴ The product of (13 - x²)(x + 2) = 13x + 26 - x³ - 2x²

- There is no like terms

- Lets arrange the terms from greatest power to smallest power

∴ The product is -x³ - 2x² + 13x + 26
