Answer:

A pear is 3.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer: A pear cost $4.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the total price of four oranges and five pears is $32 then we could represent it by the equation  4x + 5y = 32   where x is cost of one orange and y is the cost of one pear.

The same way we could represent the second statement by the equation

3x + 2y = 17      

We know have the two systems of equations:

4x + 5y = 32

3x + 2y = 17         Solve using the elimination method

  Multiply the top equation by -3 and the down equation by 4 to eliminate x.

-3(4x + 5y) = -3(32) =  -12x - 15y = -96

 4(3x +2y) = 4(17)  =   12x + 8y = 68    

We now have the two new equations:

-12x -15y = -96      Add both equations

12x + 8y = 68            

      - 7y = -28

     y= 4    

Which means the cost of one pear is $4.

Answer:

9 dollars per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

36/4=9

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

4 hours : $36

1 hour : $ x

we need to find x so,

4 hours ÷ 4 = 1 hour

1 : $

since we have divided 4 by 4,

we need to do that to 36 aswell

36  ÷ 4 = 9

1 hour : $9

Answer:

Quadrilateral ABCD is a SQUARE

Step-by-step explanation:

When we are given coordinates (x1, x2) and (y1 , y2) for a Quadrilateral, we solve for the sides using this formula.

√(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²

A (3, 1), B (4, 4), C (7, 5), D (6, 2)

Side AB = A (3, 1), B (4, 4)

√(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²

= √(4 - 3)² + (4 - 1)²

= √1² + 3²

= √1 + 9

= √10

Side BC = B (4, 4), C (7, 5)

√(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²

= √(7 - 4)² + (5 - 4)²

= √3² + 1²

= √9 + 1

= √10

Side CD = C (7, 5), D (6, 2)

√(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²

= √(6 - 7)² + (2 - 5)²

= √(-1) ² + (-3)²

= √1 + 9

= √10

Side AD = A (3, 1), D (6, 2)

√(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²

= √(6 - 3)² + (2 - 1)²

= √3² + 1²

= √9 + 1

= √10

From the above calculation,

Side AB = √10

Side BC = √10

Side CD = √10

Side AD = √10

Hence, AB = BC = CD = AD

When all the side of a Quadrilateral are the same or equal to each other, it means the Quadrilateral is a square.

Therefore, Quadrilateral ABCD is a SQUARE

To add fractions with different denominators you must find the highest common factor (the highest number they both go into).

For 1 - The highest common factor is 8, 2x4 = 8, 4x2 = 8

now, whatever you do to the bottom, you must do to the top.

So:

3 x 2 = 6 and 5 x 4 = 20

Therefore, your answer would be 6/8 + 20/8

You do that for the rest of them as well, do you get it?

Answer:

572 7s are needed to be added together

Step-by-step explanation:

Basically, what we are asked here is the multiple of 7 which is closest to but above 4,000

Then, from this multiple , the number of 7s which are added together to give it is our answer.

By multiplication; 7 * 572 = 4,004

This is the closest multiple of 7 to 4000 which is also above it.

So the fewest number of 7s which we can add together is 572

The content of the pie chart is as follows:

Hamsters  = 9% ; Snakes  = 10% ; Cats  = 23%

Birds  = 21% ;  Dogs  = 26% ;  Fish  = 11%

Answer:

The number of citizens who chose cat or fish is 47,600

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Number of citizens = 140,000

Required

Determine the number of those that chose fish or cats

First, we need to calculate the percentage of those whose pets are either cats or fish

[tex]Percentage = Cat + Fish[/tex]

Substitute 23% for cat and 11% for fish

[tex]Percentage = 23\% + 11\%[/tex]

[tex]Percentage = 34\%[/tex]

Next, is to multiply the calculated percentage by the number of citizens

[tex]Cat\ or\ Fish = Percentage * Number\ of\ Citizens[/tex]

[tex]Cat\ or\ Fish = 34\% * 140000[/tex]

[tex]Cat\ or\ fish = 47600[/tex]

Hence, the number of citizens who chose cat or fish is 47,600

the number of citizens who chose cat or fish is 47,600

= Number of citizens × total percentage

[tex]= 140,000 \times (23\% + 11\%)\\\\= 140,000 \times 34\%[/tex]

= 47,600

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The variation p varies directly with T is written as

p = kT

where k is the constant of proportionality

To find p when T =500 we must first find the formula for the variation

That's

when p = 105 and T = 400

105 = 400k

Divide both sides by 400

So the formula for the variation is

when

T = 500

Substitute it into the above formula

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The shaded regions consist of a triangle and a semicircle

Area of shaded regions = Area of Triangle + Area of semicircle

Area of Triangle = (h x b) ÷ 2

Height, h = 10 cm

Base, b = 8 cm

Are of the triangle component = (10 x 8) ÷ 2

= 80 ÷ 2

= 40 cm^2

 Area of semicircle = πr^2 ÷ 2

Diameter, D = 8 cm

Radius, r = 8 cm ÷ 2 = 4 cm

Are of the semicircle component = [π(4^2) ÷ 2)

= 16π ÷ 2

= 16π cm^2

 Total area of shaded regions

= (40+16π) cm^2

= 8 (5 +2π) cm^2

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{\sf Area = 8\pi + 40\ cm^2}[/tex]

[tex]\boxed{\sf Perimeter = 4\pi + 22\ cm}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the figure:

Firstly: Area of semicircle:

[tex]\sf \frac{\pi r^2}{2} \\Where\ r = 4 \ cm\\\frac{\pi (4)^2}{2} \\\frac{16 \pi}{2}\\8 \pi \ cm^2[/tex]

Then Area of Triangle

[tex]\sf 1/2 (Base)(Height)\\1/2(10)(4)\\10*2\\20\ cm^2[/tex]

Area of Figure = Area of Semicircle + 2(Area of triangle)

=> 8π + 2(20)

=> 8π + 40 cm²

Perimeter of Semicircle:

Firstly, we'll have to find the hypotenuse

[tex]\sf c^2 = a^2+b^2\\c^2 = 4^2+10^2\\c^2 = 16+100\\c^2 = 116\\c = 11\ cm[/tex]

Then, Perimeter of the semi-circle:

=> πr

Where r = 4 cm

=> 4π

Now, the perimeter of the whole figure:

=> 4π + 2(11)

=> 4π + 22 cm

Answer:

The probability it will land on green every time is [tex]\frac{1}{27}[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a spinner is used for which it is equally probable that the pointer will land on any one of six regions. Three of the regions are colored red, two are colored green, and one is colored yellow.

The pointer is spun three times.

As we know that the probability of an event is described as;

  Probability of an event =  [tex]\frac{\text{Favorable number of outcomes}}{\text{Total number of outcomes}}[/tex]

Here, the favorable outcome is that the spinner will land on green every time.

So, the number of green regions = 2

Total number of regions = 3(red) + 2(green) + 1(yellow) = 6 regions

Now, the probability it will land on green every time is given by;

        Probability =  [tex]\frac{2}{6}\times \frac{2}{6}\times \frac{2}{6}[/tex]

                           =  [tex]\frac{1}{3}\times \frac{1}{3}\times \frac{1}{3}[/tex]

                           =  [tex]\frac{1}{27}[/tex]

Hence, the probability it will land on green every time is [tex]\frac{1}{27}[/tex].

Using the concept of probability, the probability of landing on green for all 3 spins is [tex] \frac{1}{27}[/tex]

Total number of portions = (3 + 2 + 1) = 6

Recall :

Probability of rolling green on a single spin :

Answer:

  a. almost 8 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Brenda's expected annual increase in salary is ...

  $63,292 -45,258 = $18,034

If we assume that Brenda's cost of education includes going without 2 years' salary as well as the cost of tuition, her degree's total cost will be ...

  2×$45,258 +15,000 = $105,516

__

Once Brenda starts earning again, she is recovering this cost at the rate of $18,034 per year, so it will take ...

  $105,516/($18,034 /yr) = 5.85 yr

to recover that cost.

Since Brenda spent 2 years in school, from the time she decides to start school until she has recovered her cost, it will be 2 + 5.85 = 7.85 years, almost 8 years.

_____

If Brenda can continue working while going to school, she can recover her tuition cost in about 10 months after graduation.

If the base of the exponent were 1, the function would remain constant. The graph would be a horizontal line. If the base of the exponent were less than 1, but greater than 0, the function would be decreasing.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the base were 1, the graph would be a horizontal line.

If the base were between 0 and 1, the function would be decreasing.

Step-by-step explanation:

For example:

Ex: 2:3 :: 6:9

In this question, the means are 3 and 6.

The extremes are 2 and 9.

We use this method to find whether the two ratios are equal or not.

We multiply the means and the extremes, and if there products are same, then these two ratios are proportional.

If these two ratios are proportional, their "means" = "extremes"

=> Means = Extremes

=> 3 x 6 = 2 x 9

=> 18 = 18

So, these two ratios are proportional.
