Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 3

General Formulas and Concepts:

Pre-Algebra

Order of Operations: BPEMDAS

Brackets Parenthesis Exponents Multiplication Division Addition Subtraction Left to Right

Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define Equation

4x + 9 = 2x + 15

Step 2: Solve for x

Subtract 2x on both sides:                    2x + 9 = 15Subtract 9 on both sides:                      2x = 6Divide 2 on both sides:                          x = 3

Step 3: Check

Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.

Substitute in x:                    4(3) + 9 = 2(3) + 15Multiply:                               12 + 9 = 6 + 15Add:                                     21 = 21

Here we see that 21 does indeed equal 21.

∴ x = 3 is the solution to the equation.

x=-5/2

Answer:

The Answer is D: Starting amount in his savings account

Step-by-step explanation:

The y-intercept represents the starting amount in his savings account.

x = 0 for the y-intercept.

y = 400x + 1000

y = 400(0) + 1000

y = 1000

What is the compound interest when £1200 is invested for 8 years at a rate of 3.2% compound interest p.a.?

Answers

Answer:

the Compound interest is £1,543.90

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the compound interest is shown below:

As we know that

Compound interest is

Amount = Principal × (1 + rate of interest)^number of years

= £1,200 × (1 + 0.032)^8

= £1,200 × 1.286582318

=  £1,543.90

hence, the Compound interest is £1,543.90

Tom fed the dog 3 times as many times as her sister last week. His sister walked the dog 9 times. Max said he could multiply 4 times 9 to find out how many more times he walked the Dog than his sister. Is Tom correct?

Answers

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

The calculation that Tom is trying to do would be to calculate how many times he walked the dog if he had walked the dog 4 times as many times as his sister, who in this scenario walked the dog a total of 9 times. Since, in this scenario there is no mention of how many times Tom walked the dog then this calculation cannot be made and I would say that Tom is not correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first one would be C because the slope is -1, which can also be -x and the y-intercept is 0, meaning you don't need to add or subtract anything.

The second one is D because the slope is -3, meaning it's -3x, and the y-intercept is positive, meaning you add 5.

The third one is D because the slope is 5/4, which is 5/4x and the y-intercept is positive 3, meaning you add 3.

And the fourth one is A because there is no slope, so y would just equal 3.

Follow PEMDAS

7.49 / 12.5 = 0.5592 (100) = 59.92

Round to the nearest whole number. So about 60%


Tamika wants to predict the outcome of next Tuesday’s game, between the Nets and the Warriors.
She believes that the Warriors will score 19 points less than the Nets. Tamika also predicts that the total amount of points scored for both teams will be 207 points.

How many points does Tamika think that the Warriors will score? How many points will the Nets score?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the Warriors' score. Then from Tamika's prediction, (x + 19) is the Nets' score.

Toal score = x + (x + 19) = 2x + 19 = 207.

Therefore 2x = 188 and x = 94.

Hence Tamika thinks that the Warriors will score 94 points and the Nets will score 94 + 19 = 113 points.

There is 1/2 of a greater chance in drawing a spade over drawing a 7

How to determine the probability?

From the complete question added as an attachment, we have the following parameters:

n(Spade) = 4n(7) = 1Total = 6

The probability of getting a spade is:

P(Spade) = 4/6

The probability of getting a 7 is:

P(7) = 1/6

The difference between both probabilities is:

Difference = 4/6 - 1/6

Evaluate

Difference = 3/6

Simplify

Difference = 1/2

Hence, there is 1/2 of a greater chance in drawing a spade over drawing a 7

Can sides of a triangle have lengths 3,4,9

Answers

Answer:

yes

Step-by-step explanation:

No, the lengths 3, 4, and 9 cannot form the sides of a triangle.

What is Triangle Inequality?

The triangle inequality is a fundamental geometric principle that states that the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than the length of the third side.

We have sides as 3, 4 and 9.

For a triangle to be valid, the sum of the lengths of any two sides must be greater than the length of the third side.

In this case, let's check if this condition is satisfied:

3 + 4 = 7

7 is less than 9

Therefore, these lengths do not satisfy the triangle inequality theorem, and a triangle cannot be formed with side lengths 3, 4, and 9.

You have gone out to eat with a couple of friends. One is your friend Jamal and the other is your friend Marek. At the end, you get the check, and you decide to split it in two parts. You will pay for yourself and Jamal, while Marek will pay for 1/3 of the total amount. You end up paying $16.00 for your part of the meal. Later, you can’t remember how much the total bill was, but you are sure you can figure it out.



1. Write a system of equations to represent this situation, and solve the system to find out how much the total cost of the meal was (including your part as well as Marek’s part). Show all of your work.

The formula to find the rate of change for the two order pairs is: (y' - y) / (x' - x) = rate of change, so (16 - 12) / (15 - 11) = 4/4 = 1, therefore, the rate of change is 1 *

Find the two square roots of 144.

Answers

Answer:

The square root function

sqrt(144) or √144 produces a single positive value, 12.  

However if you have an equation

x² = 144, then you have two possible values for x, 12 and -12.  

Two ways to look at it.  

x² - 144 = 0

Difference of two squares

(x+12)(x-12) = 0

x = -12, 12

x² = 144

x = ±√144

x = ±12

x = -12, 12

Answer:

12 and -12

Step-by-step explanation:

144 is a perfect square which means that a number multiplies to it with the same number. In this instance both 12 and -12 equal 144.

12 x 12 = 144

-12 x -12 = 144 (two negatives equal a positive)
