Answer 1

Answer:

x= -2

Step-by-step explanation:

so D is the answer

Answer 2

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {x = -2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for the value of [tex]x[/tex]:

[tex]9 - 4x = 17[/tex]

-Subtract both sides by [tex]9[/tex]:

[tex]9 - 9 - 4x = 17 - 9[/tex]

[tex]-4x = 8[/tex]

-Divide both sides by [tex]4[/tex]:

[tex]\frac{-4x}{-4} = \frac{8}{-4}[/tex]

[tex]\boxed {x = -2}[/tex]

Therefore, value of [tex]x[/tex] is [tex]-2[/tex].

The school cafeteria sells three different types of sandwiches: chicken, turkey,

and roast beef. Chicken sandwiches sell for $3, turkey sandwiches sell for

$3.50, and roast beef sandwiches sell for $4. The cafeteria makes 400

sandwiches in total, and, if all sandwiches are sold, the cafeteria will take in

$1375. If the cafeteria makes the same number of chicken sandwiches as it

does turkey sandwiches, how many of each type of sandwich does the school

make? (Hint: Write one equation for the number of sandwiches, one equation

for to amount of money all the sandwiches cost, and an equation that show the

number of chicken and turkey sandwiches are equal.)

No

Answers

Answer:

Number of chicken sandwiches = 150

Number of turkey sandwiches = 150

Number of roast beef sandwiches= 100

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told the school cafeteriat makes and sells 3 different types of sandwiches which are; chicken, turkey and roast beef.

Let chicken be x, turkey be y and roast beef be z.

We are told they make 400 sandwiches in total.

Thus;

x + y + z = 400

However, we are told that the cafeteria makes same number of chicken and turkey sandwiches.

Thus, x = y

Thus;

Total is now;

x + x + z = 400

2x + z = 400 - - - (eq 1)

Now,we are told that chicken, turkey and roast beef sandwiches are sold for $3, $3.5 and $4 respectively. Also that the total amount realized from sales is $1375.

Thus;

3x + 3.5y + 4z = 1375

Since x = y. Thus;

3x + 3.5x + 4z = 1375

6.5x + 4z = 1375 - - - (eq 2)

Let's make z the subject in eq 1.

Thus;

z = 400 - 2x - - - (eq 3)

Putting 400 - 2x for z in eq(2) gives us;

6.5x + 4(400 - 2x) = 1375

6.5x + 1600 - 8x = 1375

1600 - 1375 = 8x - 6.5x

225 = 1.5x

x = 225/1.5

x = 150

Putting 150 for x in eq 3 gives;

z = 400 - 2(150)

z = 400 - 300

z = 100

Since x = y. Then y = 150

The height y (in feet) of a baseball t seconds after it is hit can be modeled by the function y = −16t2 + 96t + 3. About how long does it take to hit the ground?

Answers

Answer:

6.03 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]y = -16t\² + 96t + 3[/tex]

To solve this, we simply set the height to 0.

i.e. [tex]y = 0[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]-16t\² + 96t + 3 = 0[/tex]

Solve using quadratic formula.

[tex]t = \frac{-b+-\sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

Where

[tex]a = -16[/tex]

[tex]b = 96[/tex]

[tex]c = 3[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{-96+-\sqrt{96^2 - 4 * -16 * 3}}{2 * -16}[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{-96+-\sqrt{9216 +192}}{-32}[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{-96+-\sqrt{9408}}{-32}[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{-96+-96.9948452239}{-32}[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{-96+96.9948452239}{-32}[/tex] or [tex]t = \frac{-96-96.9948452239}{-32}[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{0.9948452239}{-32}[/tex] or [tex]t = \frac{-192.994845224}{-32}[/tex]

[tex]t = -0.031088913245535[/tex] or [tex]t = 6.0310889132455[/tex]

Since time can't be negative, we have:

A six-sided number cube is rolled twice.

Choose all of the dependent events.

A. The event that the first roll is a 3 or 4, and the event that the sum of the rolls is greater than 7.

B. The event that the first roll is greater than 3, and the event that the second roll is less than 3.

C. The event that the first rollis even, and the event that the second roll is also even.

D. The event that the first rollis odd, and the event that the sum of the rolls is 8.

E. The event that the first rollis odd, and the event that the second roll is a 1.

Answers

Answer: A and D

Step-by-step explanation:

Dependent events mean that one event depends on the outcome of the previous event.

A) If the first roll is a 3, and we want to sum more than 7 with the second roll, then the possible outcomes 5 and 6. Now if the first roll is 4, then the possible outcomes for the second event will be 4, 5 and 6. So you can see how the outcome space of the second event changes depending on the first event, so the events are dependent.

B) Here we do not have dependence, each event only depends on it's own outcome.

C) Again, both events only depend on it's own outcome, so the events are not dependent.

D) This is similar as the case for A, these events are dependent because is not the same if the outcome of the first event is 3, than if the outcome is 5 (the outcome needed for the second roll changes depending on the outcome of the first event)

E) Same as B and C, the events are independent.

Solve the multistep inequality.
4x + 3 < 5x − 6

Answers

Answer:

x > 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate the variable, x. Treat the < as an equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other.

First, subtract 5x and 3 from both sides of the inequality:

4x (-5x) + 3 (-3) < 5x (-5x) - 6 (-3)

4x - 5x < -6 - 3

-x < -9

Isolate the variable, x. Divide -1 from both sides. Note that when you divide or multiply by a negative number, you must flip the sign:

(-x)/-1 < (-9)/-1

x < -9/-1

x > 9

x > 9 is your answer.

Function f is symmetric around point (4, -1). This point is the minimum of the function f

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertex-form of the quadratic function is y = a(x - h)² + k, where

a is the coefficient of x²(h, k) are the coordinates of its vertex pointThe graph of the quadratic function is a parabola symmetric at the vertex point (h, k), which is the lowest or the highest on the graphIf the vertex is the lowest point then, it is minimum, if it is the highest point, then it is maximum

Let us solve the question

→ From the given graph

∵ The graph represents a quadratic function f(x)

∵ It has the lowest vertex

∴ The vertex is minimum

∵ The coordinates of the vertex are (4, -1)

∵ The is symmetric around the vertex point

∴ The function is symmetric around point (4, -1)

Function f is symmetric around point (4, -1). This point is the minimum of the function f

A. The total cost will increase by $4 for every game bowled.
B. The total cost will increase by $3 for every game bowled.
C. The total cost will increase by $4 for every 3 games bowled.
D. The total cost will increase by $3 for every 4 games bowled.

Answers

Answer:

A:The total cost will increase by $4 for every game bowled

Step-by-step explanation:

$4 per game not 3 games or 4 game is per game

The correct statement is:

The total cost will increase by $4 for every game bowled.

What is Algebra?

Algebra is the branch of mathematics that helps in the representation of problems or situations in the form of mathematical expressions.

Given:

Total cost of bowling = 4x + 3y

where x is the number of games.

Now, every time the game played they charged it for $4 per game.

So, when there 2 games then the charges will be $8 for two games.

Hence, the correct statement is The total cost will increase by $4 for every game bowled.
