Answer 1

Ryan grew 1/2 foot (or 0.5 feet) in a year.

How to find How much did he grow in a year

Last year's height: 4 ¾ feet

This year's height: 5 ¼ feet

To find the difference, we subtract the height from last year from the height from this year:

5 ¼ feet - 4 ¾ feet

To perform the subtraction, we need to make sure both heights have the same denominator. The common denominator for 4 and ¾ is 4.

5 ¼ feet - 4 ¾ feet = 5 + 1/4 - 4 - 3/4

Converting the whole numbers to fractions:

5 + 1/4 - 4 - 3/4 = 5 + 1/4 - 4 - 3/4 = 5 - 4 + 1/4 - 3/4

Simplifying the expression:

5 - 4 + 1/4 - 3/4 = 1 + (1 - 3)/4

Performing the subtraction:

1 + (-2)/4 = 1 - 1/2 = 1/2

Therefore, Ryan grew 1/2 foot (or 0.5 feet) in a year.

Dan is stocking up on AA and AAA batteries. He bought 10 packages of batteries for a total of 72 batteries. The AA batteries are sold in packages of 6, and the AAA batteries are sold in packages of 8. Write, but do not solve, a system of equations that can be used to find how many packages of each type of battery Dan bought.

Answers

Answer:

x + y = 10

6x + 8y = 72

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of packages = 10

Total batteries = 72

For AA:

batteries per package = 6

Let number of packages = x

For AAA:

batteries per package = 8

Let number of packages = y

Number of AA packages + number of AAA packages = 10

Sum of AA + sum of AAA equals 72 batteries

x + y = 10

6x + 8y = 72

Answer:Answer:

x + y = 10

6x + 8y = 72

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of packages = 10

Total batteries = 72

For AA:

batteries per package = 6

Let number of packages = x

For AAA:

batteries per package = 8

Let number of packages = y

Number of AA packages + number of AAA packages = 10

Sum of AA + sum of AAA equals 72 batteries

x + y = 10

6x + 8y = 72

help please!!!!!!!!! Which image is a reflection of the black polygon in quadrant I?

On a coordinate plane, the black polygon is reflected across the y-axis to form the red polygon.
the black polygon in quadrant I
the red polygon in quadrant II
the blue polygon in quadrant III
the green polygon in quadrant IV

Answers

Answer:

The red polygon

Step-by-step explanation:

Think of the quadrants:

The "top right" one is quadrant I

The "top left" one is quadrant II

The "bottom left" one is quadrant III

The "bottom right" one is quadrant IV

When it says "reflected across y-axis", think of the y-axis as a "mirror"

Since the black polygon is in quadrant I, think of it looking into the mirror, or y axis.  It is reflecting into quadrant II.

The red polygon is in quadrant II.

Sorry!  I know this is a really weird explanation, but hope it helps!

Answer: The answer is the red polygon in quadrant ll (B)!

The coordinate bridge shows the cost of different numbers of bookmarks how many sense do for bookmarks cost.

Answers

Answer:

54 cents

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost of bookmarks relating to the number of bookmarks is given by the graph shown. Therefore:

From the graph, we can determine the relationship between the cost of bookmarks and the number of bookmarks by using two points. The equation of a line passing through points [tex](x_1,y_1)\ and\ (x_2,y_2)[/tex] is:

[tex]y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} (x-x_1)\\[/tex]

From the graph, y represents the cost of bookmarks in cents and x represent the number of bookmarks. we can see that it passes through the point (2, 30) and (7, 90). Hence:

[tex]y-30=\frac{90-30}{7-2}(x-2)\\\\y-30=12(x-2) \\\\y-30=12x-24\\\\y=12x+6[/tex]

The cost of 4 bookmarks (x = 4):

y = 12(4) + 6

y = 54 cents

Answer and explanation:

If we wish to model this situation in the form of a fraction: there is one container containing 30 cans of fruit juice and 2 people want fruit juice, we would be finding how many fruit juice each person would get from the container.

Given one container= 30 cans of fruit juice

Number of persons that require fruit juice = 2

Therefore fraction of fruit juice in relation to required fruit juice= 30/2

Kim got to the grocery store at 11:19 in the morning. She spent 24 minutes in the store. Find the points on the number line that show the number of minutes after 11:00 when she got to and left the store.

Answers

Answer:

43 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Arrival time at grocery store = 11:19 a.m

Time spent in store = 24 minutes

Number of minutes after 11:00 a.m when she arrived and left the store :

Time she left the store :

11:19 a.m + 24 minutes = 11:43 a.m

Minutes after 11:00 when she left :

11:43 - 11:00

= 43 minutes

At which root does the graph of f(x) = (x – 5)2(x + 2)2 touch the x-axis?
-5
0-2
2
05

Answers

Answer:

Option B & D

Step-by-step explanation:

Function is;

f(x) = (x - 5)³(x + 2)²

We want to find the point in thich the graph of this function touches the x-axis.

Usually, the point at which the graph touches the x-axis means that y is 0 at that point.

Thus;

(x - 5)³(x + 2)² = 0

This means that;

x - 5 = 0 and x + 2 = 0

Thus,x = -5 and x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

first you visualize the shape created

if you visualize it... it will look like a right angled triangle

and we are looking for the longest side

remember the pythagoras theorem c^2= a^2 + b^2

in this case we are looking for c

a^2= 20^2

b^2= 32^2

400+ 1024= 1424

therefore c^2= 1424

then you square root 1424
