Answer 2

Answer:

28 muffins

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = the number of muffins

x*3/4 = 21

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 5x - 4 = 17      (Given)

7x - 4 = 17              (Simplify)

7x - 4 + 4 = 17 + 4  (Add 4 on both sides)

7x = 21                   (Simplify)

7x/7 = 21/7             (Divide 7 on both sides)

x = 3                      (Simplify)

The perimeter (adding up all the sides) of a rectangular

and the Width of the land.
-7)

Answers

Answer:

x = 8

length is 12 meters

width is 9 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

P = 2l + 2w

where l is the length and w is the width.

(There are two sides with the same length, and two sides with the same width.)

Let l = x + 4 and w = 2x - 7

so 2(x+4) + 2(2x-7) = 42

Distribute the 2s

2x + 8 + 4x - 14 = 42

Combine like terms

2x + 4x + 8 - 14 = 42

Group

6x - 6 = 42

Add 6 to both sides

6x = 48

Divide 6 on both sides

x = 8

Plug back in

l = 8 + 4 = 12 meters

and w = 2(8) - 7 = 16 - 7 = 9 meters

Double-check: 2 * 12 + 2 * 9 = 24 + 18 = 42

Johhny Badoingas collects $0.12 from a 1000 people, how much does he have altogether. Now he has to share that total product with 100 people, how much does each person get?

Answers

Find total collected by multiplying the amount per person by number of people:

1000 x 0.12 = $120.00

Total collected = $120.00

Divide total collected by number of people:

120.00 / 109 = $1.20

Each person gets $1.20

Find the distance between the points (-6, – 7) and (5. – 7).

Answers

Answer:

11

Step-by-step explanation:

d=√(5-(-6))²+(-7-(-7))²

d=√(11²+0²)

d=11

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf d= 11}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find the distance between 2 points. We will use the distance formula.

[tex]d= \sqrt{ (x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2[/tex]

In this formula, (x₁ , y₁) and (x₂ , y₂) are the points. We are given the points (-6, -7) and (5, -7). If we match the value and the corresponding variable, we see that:

x₁ = -6 y₁ = -7 x₂ = 5 y₂ = -7

Substitute these values into the formula.

[tex]d= \sqrt{(5- -6)^2 + (-7--7)^2[/tex]

Solve inside the parentheses. Remember that two back-to-back negative signs become a plus sign.

(5 - - 6) = (5 +6) = 11( -7 - - 7) = (-7 +7) = 0

[tex]d= \sqrt{ (11)^2+(0)^2[/tex]

Solve the exponents.

(11)² = 11 * 11 = 121 (0)² = 0*0= 0

[tex]d= \sqrt{(121)+(0)[/tex]

Add.

[tex]d= \sqrt{121}[/tex]

[tex]d=11[/tex]

The distance between (-6, -7) and (5, -7) is 11.

ac-bd/7=3*2-(4*-2)/7=50/7 but if you mean (3*2-(4*-2))/7=2

Step-by-step explanation:

remember : calculations are usually done from left to right, but multiplications and divisions come before + and -.

and exponents come before multiplications and divisions.

and minus a negative number always turns into plus a positive number.

so,

3b²c - 2ad = 3×4²×2 - 2×3×-2 = 96 - -12 = 96 + 12 = 108

Step-by-step explanation:

let : the pair of jeans = X

a. the equation is :

4(X-3) + 8 = 92

b. 4(X-3) = 92-8

4X -12 = 84

4X = 84+12

4X = 96

X = 96/4

X = 24

so, the price of each pair of jeans = $24

_________

For the solution x = 2.6, the left side of equation

(2x - 6) => would be 2(2.6)-6 = 5.2-6 = -8 ( the negative value),

but on the right side of the equation 4x+8 => 4(2.6) +8 = 18.4 ( the positive value)

this difference indicates that x=2.6 is not the right solution.

Answer:

a)  Let x be the cost of one pair of jeans

    [tex]4(x-3)+8=92[/tex]

b)  $24

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information:

Cost of t-shirt = $8Coupon used for $3 off each pair of jeansTotal spend = $92 (before tax)

Define the variable:

Let x = the cost of one pair of jeans

Create an equation using the defined variable and the given information:

Apply the coupon ⇒ cost of one pair of jeans = (x - 3)4 pairs of jeans ⇒ 4(x - 3)Plus the cost of the t-shirt ⇒ + 8Equals the total cost of ⇒ = 92:

[tex]4(x-3)+8=92[/tex]

To find the price of each pair of jeans, solve the equation for x:

[tex]\implies 4(x-3)+8=92[/tex]

[tex]\implies 4(x-3)+8-8=92-8[/tex]

[tex]\implies 4(x-3)=84[/tex]

[tex]\implies \dfrac{4(x-3)}{4}=\dfrac{84}{4}[/tex]

[tex]\implies x-3=21[/tex]

[tex]\implies x-3+3=21+3[/tex]

[tex]\implies x=24[/tex]

Therefore, the price of each pair of jeans was $24.

----------------------------------------------------

Solving  3(2x - 6) = 4x + 8  mentally:

Expand the brackets:

⇒ 16x - 18 = 4x + 8

Subtract 4x from both sides:

⇒ 12x - 18 = 8

Add 18 to both sides:

⇒ 12x = 26

Two times 12 is 24.  As 26 is very close to 24, then x ≈ 2.

(The actual value of x is 2.2 to 2 decimal places).

Assessing the student's solution:

As x = 2.6 rounds to x ≈ 3 then the student's solution is incorrect because:

⇒ 3(2(3) - 6) = 4(3) + 8

⇒ 3(6 - 6) = 12 + 8

⇒ 3(0) = 20

⇒ 0 = 20

Using the Factor Theorem, which of the polynomial functions has the zeros 4, [tex]\sqrt7[/tex], and [tex]-\sqrt{7\\}[/tex]?

f (x) = x3 – 4x2 – 7x + 28
f (x) = x3 + 4x2 – 7x + 28
f (x) = x3 + 4x2 – 7x – 28

Answers

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Factor Theorem, if (x - a) is a factor (where a is a zero) of the polynomial P(x), then P(a) must equal zero.

Our zeros are 4, √7, and - √7. Hence, when evaluating P(4), P(√7), and P(-√7), all must evaluate to zero.

Testing each choice, we can see that only choice B is true. That is:

[tex]\displaystyle \displaystyle \begin{aligned} f(4)&= (4)^3 - 4(4)^2 - 7(4) + 28 \\ &= (64) - (64) - (28) + 28 \\ &= 0 \stackrel{\checkmark}{=}0 \\f(\sqrt{7}) &= (\sqrt{7})^3 - 4(\sqrt{7})^2 - 7(\sqrt{7}) + 28 \\ &= (7\sqrt{7}) - (28) - (7\sqrt{7}) + 28 \\ &= 0 \stackrel{\checkmark}{=} 0\\ f(-\sqrt{7}) &= (-\sqrt{7})^3 - 4(-\sqrt{7})^2 - 7(-\sqrt{7}) + 28 \\ &= (-7\sqrt{7}) - (28) + (7\sqrt{7}) + 28 \\ &= 0 \stackrel{\checkmark}{=} 0 \end{aligned}[/tex]

In conclusion, our answer is B.
