Step-by-step explanation:

these are almost the simplest possible problems to get you a little bit familiar with the use of this line of thinking and to use these methods.

come on ! are you really not understanding this ?

I think you are not trying to learn and get better, you try to get others doing your work for you.

these problems are so simple that stating them here costs you more time than just solving them.

remember fractions ?

remember the problems to find the smallest common denominator for a list of fractions ?

the first question is exactly that.

what is the smallest common denominator of 3/4, 1/3 and 1/2 ?

because that is the number you need to multiply both sides to eliminate all fractions.

so, what is the smallest number that can be split by 4, 3 and 2 ?

is it 2 ? no, 4 and 3 can't do that.

is it 3 ? no, 2 and 4 can't do that.

...

is it 6 ? no, 4 can't do that.

...

is it 8 ? no, 3 can't do that.

...

is it 12 ? yeah ! all 3 can do that.

here a little tip : you start by multiplying all involved numbers, and then work your way back by eliminating some factors shared by some of the numbers.

here it would be

2×3×4 = 24

but 12 is sufficient, because 2 and 4 share another common factor of 2. so, we can divide 24 by 2 and get 12.

"isolate the variable" means having it only on one side of the equation.

so, what do you think ?

subtracting any constants does not change anything for "j".

from all the offered options only the subtraction of 1.1j eliminates j from one side.

the runners save.

you only need to translate the words into the corresponding mathematical symbols.

runner 1 has $112 already saved.

that is our starting value for this runner.

so, 112 + ...

received a $45 gift card. so, $45 are added.

so, 112 + 45 + ...

saves $25 each month (m). so, whatever the number of m is, there will be $25×m added to the account.

so, 112 + 45 + 25m

we know already, it is the second option.

but for training purposes let's look at runner 2 too :

he starts with $50 already saved.

so, 50 + ...

saves $60 each month (m). same principle as above.

so, 50 + 60m

if we want to know, when (after how many months) both runners will have the same amount of money, we simply need to say both equations are equal and solve for m.

-3x + 1 + 10x = x + 4

how do we solve this ?

by bringing all x to one side and contract them into one expression. and try to bring all constants to the other side and contact them too. and then do the reverse operation of the x expression (like a division for a multiplication).

1 + 7x = x + 4

1 + 6x = 4

6x = 3

x = 3/6 = 1/2

hurray, it is the first option !

Answer:

M(-5/2, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Add the x-coordinates & divide by 2.

Add the y-coordinates and divide by 2.

x-coordinates: -4, -1

(-4 + (-1))/2 = -5/2

y-coordinates: -8, 4

(-8 + 4)/2 = -4/2 = -2

M(-5/2, -2)

Answer:

AG = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

The relationship of the segments created is one is 1/3 (shorter) and the other (longer) is 2/3 of the total length.

Lets make x represent AG.

So, 2/3 of x is 12

or

[tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]x = 12

Multiply both sides by the reciprocal of [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] , which is [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex].

( [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex]) [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]x = 12 ([tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex])  (x is left alone, the fractions = 1 when multiplied)

x = 12 ([tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex])         ( 12 times 3 = 36, divided by 2 = 18)    

x = 18

Answer:

11.3

Step-by-step explanation:

first we find angle F.

remember, all angles in a triangle always sum up to 180 degrees.

so,

F = 180 - 90 - 61 = 29 degrees

now we use the law of sines.

EF/sin(D) = ED/sin(F) = DF/sin(E)

DF = x

sin(E) = sin(90) = 1

5.5/sin(29) = x/1 = x

x = 11.3

Answer:

4(x - [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] )² = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

4x² - 4x + 1 = 0 ( factor out 4 from the first 2 terms )

4(x² - x) + 1 = 0

To complete the square

add/subtract ( half the coefficient of the x- term)² to x² - x

4(x² + 2(- [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] )x + [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] - [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] ) + 1 = 0

4(x - [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] )² - 1 + 1 = 0

4(x - [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] )² = 0

Answer and explanation:

Keira could get or look up an electronic copy of the book online. Once she has an electronic copy(pdf for instance) of the book, she can count number of e's in her book using the PDF reader or any software extension(good number of tools online) that would do just that.

Factors for Keira to consider:

How many lines and words are there on average per page; how many words are there per line?

How many e's are there manually counting for at least 5 pages.

Problems Keira might have in collecting data:

If book is physical and not an electronic copy, Keira may have to go through a tedious task of counting manually. She could make a rough estimation based on a few pages counted but she would need more accurate figures which requires the tedious task of counting e 's manually

Number of outcomes with at most 3 heads

First, we list out the sample space of a toss of coin 5 times

[tex](HHHHH)[/tex], [tex](HHHHT)[/tex], [tex](HHHTT)[/tex], [tex](HHTTT)[/tex], [tex](HTTTT)[/tex], [tex](TTTTT)[/tex], [tex](TTTTH)[/tex], [tex](TTTHH)[/tex], [tex](TTHHH)[/tex], [tex](THHHH)[/tex], [tex](HTHTH)[/tex], [tex](THTHT)[/tex], [tex](HHTHH)[/tex], [tex](TTHTT)[/tex], [tex](HTTHT)[/tex], [tex](THHTH)[/tex], [tex](THHHT)[/tex], [tex](HTTTH)[/tex], [tex](THHTT)[/tex], [tex](HTTHH)[/tex], [tex](HHTTH)[/tex], [tex](TTHHT)[/tex], [tex](TTHTH)[/tex], [tex](HHTHT)[/tex], [tex](HTHTT)[/tex], [tex](THTHH)[/tex], [tex](THTTH)[/tex], [tex](HTHHT)[/tex], [tex](HTHTT)[/tex], [tex](THTHH)[/tex], [tex](HHHTH)[/tex], [tex](TTTHT)[/tex]

Next, we list out all outcomes with at most 3 heads

, , [tex](HHHTT)[/tex], [tex](HHTTT)[/tex], [tex](HTTTT)[/tex], [tex](TTTTT)[/tex], [tex](TTTTH)[/tex], [tex](TTTHH)[/tex], [tex](TTHHH)[/tex], , [tex](HTHTH)[/tex], [tex](THTHT)[/tex], , [tex](TTHTT)[/tex], [tex](HTTHT)[/tex], [tex](THHTH)[/tex], [tex](THHHT)[/tex], [tex](HTTTH)[/tex], [tex](THHTT)[/tex], [tex](HTTHH)[/tex], [tex](HHTTH)[/tex], [tex](TTHHT)[/tex], [tex](TTHTH)[/tex], [tex](HHTHT)[/tex], [tex](HTHTT)[/tex], [tex](THTHH)[/tex], [tex](THTTH)[/tex], [tex](HTHHT)[/tex], [tex](HTHTT)[/tex], [tex](THTHH)[/tex], [tex](TTTHT)[/tex]

So, the number of set is:

[tex]Sets = 27[/tex]

Answer:

[tex]y = 5x + 3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]y = 3x - 2[/tex]

[tex]10(x + \frac{3}{5}) = 2y[/tex]

Required

The second equation in slope intercept form

We have:

[tex]10(x + \frac{3}{5}) = 2y[/tex]

Divide both sides by 2

[tex]5(x + \frac{3}{5}) = y[/tex]

Open bracket

[tex]5x + 3 = y[/tex]

Rewrite as:

[tex]y = 5x + 3[/tex]

Hence, the equation in slope intercept form is: [tex]y = 5x + 3[/tex]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If cost price (CP) is greater than selling price (SP) , then the item is sold for loss.

Loss = CP - SP

Loss% = [tex]\frac{loss}{CP}*100[/tex]

If SP is greater than Cp, then the item is sold for a profit.

Profit =SP -CP

Gain % = [tex]\frac{gain}{CP}*100[/tex]

a)  CP = $50    ; SP = $30   ; CP > SP,  loss

Loss = 50 - 30 = $ 20

Loss % = [tex]\frac{20}{50}*100=20*2[/tex]

            = 40% loss

b) CP = £ 5000 ; SP = £6250  ; SP > CP ,  Profit

Profit = 6250 - 5000 = £ 1250

Profit % = [tex]\frac{1250}{5000}*100=25[/tex]

          25% Profit

Answer: h = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

7h-5(3h-8)-56 = -128

7h -15h+40-56 = -128

or, -8h-16= -128

or, -8h = -128 + 16

or, -8h = -112

or, 8h = 112

or, h = 112/8

so, h = 14

Answer:

h = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

We are going to use basic algebra to solve this equation.

First, let's isolate the h variables by moving -56 to the other side:

7h - 5(3h - 8) - 56 = -128

(add 56 to both sides)

7h - 5(3h - 8) = -72

Next, let's distribute the -5 to (3h - 8) by separating it from the equation then adding it back:

7h - 5(3h - 8) = -72

Separation:

-5(3h - 8) --> (-5*3h) + (-5*-8) --> (-15h) + (40)

-15h + 40

Adding it back in:

7h -15h +40 = -72

Next, let's simplify it down by adding like terms, meaning adding 7h & -15h:

7h -15h +40 = -72

(add 7h & -15h)

-8h + 40 = -72

Now we're going to move the 40 to the other side but subtracting 40:

-8h + 40 = -72

(subtract 40 to both sides)

-8h = -112

Finally, we're going to divide both sides by -8

-8h = -112 --> h = 14

The answer is h = 14

(You can double check by plugging 14 into the equation and see if it equals -128, which it does, so it's correct :-) )

In [tex]y>\dfrac{2}{3}x+3[/tex], the sign of inequality is ">" it means the boundary line is a dashed line and shaded area lies above the boundary line.

[tex]y\leq -\dfrac{1}{3}x+2[/tex], the sign of inequality is "[tex]\leq [/tex]" it means the boundary line is a solid line and shaded area lies below the boundary line.
