Your friend tried putting away the sugar for you and cannot get the 14 cups of sugar to fit in the containers! They determined you would need 9 containers to store the 14 cups of sugar.

They show you their calculations:



Answer the following questions.

What mistake did your friend make in calculating the number of containers needed?
*Hint* Look closely at the work shown to find the mistake

How many containers are needed to store the leftover sugar?

Answers

Answer:

21 containers

Step-by-step explanation:

When dividing fractions, you can multiply by the inverse of the fraction. For example, in this case, [tex]14 divided by \frac{2}{3} = \frac{14}{1}x\frac{3}{2}[/tex]. Whoever drew the calculations made the mistake of forgetting to flip the second fraction.

The actual solution of the problem is 42/2, or 21/1. 21 containers are needed to store the sugar.

Step-by-step explanation:


Consider this function.
h(x) = (x - 2)^2+3

Which of the following domain restrictions would enable h(x) to have an inverse function?
a. x < 1
b. x >5
c. x < 3
d. x > 4

(Ps: all four answer and larger equal then or smaller equal then

Answers

Answer:

No inverse function:  (a), (b), (c)

Inverse function exists:  (d)

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph of h(x) = (x - 2)^2 + 3 is a parabola that opens upward and has vertex at (2, 3).  If the entire graph is drawn, and the horizontal line test then applied, h(x) would not have an inverse, because the horizontal line would intersect the  parabolic graph twice.

Note that if we restricted the domain to x ≥ 2, the resulting graph would pass the horizontal line test.  This would also be true for x ≥ 3, x ≥ 4, and so on.  Not so for (a) x < 1.  False for x > -5.  True for x < 3.  True for x > 4.

No inverse function:  (a), (b), (c)

Inverse function exists:  (d)

Three sisters have ages that are consecutive odd integers. The sum of the age of the youngest and three times the age of the oldest is five less than five times the middle sister’s age.

Answers

Answer:

youngest   17  

middle  19

oldest    21

Step-by-step explanation:

Three sisters have ages that are consecutive odd integers

youngest = x

middle = x + 2

oldest = x + 4

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

The sum of the age of the youngest

x

and three times the age of the oldest

+ 3(x + 4)

is five less than five times the middle sister’s age

= 5(x + 2) - 5

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

x + 3(x + 4) = 5(x + 2) - 5

Distribute

x + 3x + 12 = 5x + 10 - 5

Combine like terms

4x + 12 = 5x - 5

Subtract 4x from both sides

12 = x - 5

Add 5 to both sides

17 = x

youngest   x = 17  

middle     x + 2 = 19

oldest     x + 4 = 21

Answers in Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

First Question:

[tex]\sqrt{100}[/tex] + [18 ÷ 3 x 4 - 15] - (60 - 7^2 - 1)

[tex]\sqrt{100}[/tex] + [24 - 15]  - (60 - 49 - 1)

[tex]\sqrt{100}[/tex] + 9 - 10

10 + 9 - 10

Answer = 9

Second Question:

5x + 2x = 7x

5x^2 + 3x^2 = 8x^2

2x + 3x - x = 4x

2x + 3y + x + y = 3x + 4y

9x - 6x = 3x

-7y + 3x + 4x + 3y = 7x - 4y

-7x^2 + 2x^2 + 9x^2 = 8x^2

(3x^2 + 5x + 4) - (-1 + x^2) = 2x^2 + 5x + 5

(3 + 2x - x^2) + (x^2 + 8x + 5) = 10x + 8

(3x - 4) - (5x + 2) = -2x - 6

(2x^2 + 5x + 3) - (x^2 - 2x + 3) = x^2 + 7x

(3x^2 + 2x - 5) - (2x^2 - x - 4) = x^2 + 3x - 1

Third Question:

17x + 2y

(5x + 12y) + (3x + y) = 8x + 13y

17x - 8x = 9x

2y - 13y = -11y

Answer:

A = (1, 10)

B = (4,10)

C = (4, 14)

D = (1, 16)

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, so first, we move, or translate the quadrilateral PQRS down -8 spaces on the graph, turning old points:

P (1, -2) = (1, -10)     Q (4, -2) = (4, - 10)     S (1, -8) = (1, -16)     and R (4, -6) = (4, -14)

Now, we need to rotate this new box into -x, y. So our new points are:

(1, -10) = (-1, 10)     (4, -10) = (-4, 10)     (1, -16) = (-1, 16)     and (4,-14) = (-4, 14)

Now we're reflecting off the y-axis, making our x change. So for our final points:

A(1, 10)   B (4,10)    D(1, 16)    and C(4, 14)

78 decreased by half a number is 45 Find the number

78 - 45 = 33
Since it’s half a number you do
33 x 2 = 66
So the answer is 66

Answer:

number is 66

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number be n , then

78 - [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] n = 45 ( subtract 78 from both sides )

- [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] n = - 33 ( multiply both sides by - 2 to clear the fraction )

n = 66

D=Division

Multiplication is done before division.

So, multiply 1.21*2 for the first problem, and 1.20*2 for the other 2 problems.

1.

24/(1.21)2 becomes 24/2.42

24/2.42= 9.9173553719 (or 9.92 rounded, or 9.9)

2.

29/(1.20)2 becomes 29/2.4

29/2.4= 12.0833333333 (or 12.08 rounded, or 12.1)

Step-by-step explanation: It never talks about 50 so i don't know why that is there so I think it is A because 21 dollars is more than 5+2.75, (not 100% sure but at least 85% sure)

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason that this is A is because 5$ is the initial fee and you dont pay any more than that, since 21$ is the max you can afford it is going to be less than or equal to 21. and if it is 2.75$ per stop then it is the number of stops times 2.75. A is your answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. To find out how many eggs the poultry farmer had originally, we have to reverse the steps of him selling and eating this eggs.

This means to basically multiply 400 by the reciprocal (inverse) of 1/2 and 1/3.

2. (Solving)

[tex](2)(3)(400)[/tex] [tex](6)(400)[/tex] [tex]2400[/tex]

Therefore, he had 2400 eggs originally.

Triangles ABD and XYZ are similar .Find the length of the segment XZ.

Answers

Answer: 2.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Because they are similar, the lengths of the sides will have the same ratio.

We will use side AB and side XY since it shows both sides.

This shows that the ratio is 3:4

We can then use that to find out that XZ also uses the ratio 3:4

3.2 / 4 = 0.8

0.8 * 3 = 2.4

XY is equal to 2.4
