A student solved this problem by working backward. Janice went shopping with her mom and at the end of the day she had $59.50 left over. She spent $13.65 on a T-shirt, $22.99 on some new sandals, and $40.75 on a new skirt. How much money did Janice have at the beginning? Student's solution - Janice had $59.50 left. Add up all the amounts she spent ($13.65 + $22.99 + $40.75) and add to the amount she has left over ($77.39 + $59.50). So Janice had $136.89 to begin with. Solve this problem.

There are 20 children at a library. Six of the children have an average age of 5 years. The remaining children have an average age of 8 years. What is the average age of the children at the library? Enter your answer in the box. WILL GIVE BARINLIYEST

Answers

Answer: The average age is 7.1 years.

This problem is an example of when we need to take a weighted average. We simply can't just find the average of 5 and 8, because there are different children of each each.

To start, lets multiply the total number of children by their individual ages.

6 x 5 = 30 years
14 x 8 = 112 years

There are 142 years among the 20 years, so divide 142 by 20. This gives us an average age of 7.1 years.

Answers

Answer: Perfect squares are the middle two. Difference of squares are t^2 -4 and x^2 - 169

First, to be a perfect square the last term must be a perfect square number. Only 169, 49 and 16 are perfect squares. Second, the middle term must be twice the square root of the last term.  

You can check this by using foil on the following expression:
(x + 13)(x + 13) You will get x^2 + 26x + 169 which is one of the perfect square trinomials.

For the difference of squares, you must be using subtraction and have two perfect squares.



t^2 - 4 and x^2 - 169 are the right answers, just took the test.

Answers

see attached picture for solution and graph
f(x)=x^2−12x+27
find Vertex (h, k)
x = h= -b/2a = -(-12)/2(1) = 6
k = f(h) = 36 - 12(6) + 27
k = -9

so vertex (6,-9)

 y = a(x - h)^2 + k

so
y = (x - 6)^2 - 9
x intercept when y = 0
x^2−12x+27 = 0
(x - 9)(x - 3) = 0
x - 9 = 0; x = 9
x - 3 = 0; x = 3
so x-intercept (9,0); (3,0)

y intercept when x = 0 so y = 27  (0, 27)

If c=3k+4 and d=7+9k^2, what is d in terms of c?

Answers

Answer:

  d = (c -4)² +7 = c² -8c +23

Step-by-step explanation:

Both 'c' and 'd' are expressed in terms of the variable k. In general, that variable is eliminated by writing k in terms of 'c' or 'd', then substituting for k in the other equation.

Eliminating k

We recognize that the 9k² term in the expression for 'd' is the square of the 3k term in the expression for 'c'. That means we don't have to solve for k; we only need to solve for 3k. The equation for 'c' gives an easy way to do that.

  c = 3k +4

  c -4 = 3k . . . . . . . subtract 4 to get an expression for 3k

Substituting into the equation for 'd', we have ...

  d =7 +9k²

  d = 7 +(3k)² . . . . . writing 9k² in terms of 3k

  d = 7 +(c -4)² . . . . substituting for 3k. This is d in terms of c.

This can be simplified to ...

  d = c² -8c +23 . . . . another form of d in terms of c.

Final answer:

To express 'd' in terms of 'c', solve the first equation for 'k' and substitute this value into the second equation. This yields: d=7+((c-4)^2)/3.

Explanation:

To express d in terms of c, we first need to make k the subject of c=3k+4. We do this by subtracting 4 from both sides, getting c-4=3k, and then dividing both sides by 3, which gives us k=(c-4)/3. Next, we substitute this value of k into the second equation: d=7+9k^2. Substituting, we get d=7+9*((c-4)/3)^2, which, when simplified, gives the result d=7+((c-4)^2)/3. This is the expression for d in terms of c.

A spherical balloon is inflated until its diameter is 24 in. Air is then released from the balloon until its diameter is 18 in. Approximately many cubic inches of air were released from the balloon?

formula: V =4π(r^3)/3       **make sure you use the radius and not the diameter**

Answers

Answer:
amount of air released = 4184.6 in³

Explanation:
We can get the volume of released air by calculating the difference between the volume of the balloon before and after the air was released. This difference will represent the amount of released air.

Initial volume of balloon:
V = [tex] \frac{4}{3} [/tex]πr³
We have diameter = 24 in
Therefore: 
radius = 24/2 = 12 in
volume = [tex] \frac{4}{3} [/tex]π(12)³
initial volume = 2304π in³

Final volume of balloon:
V = [tex] \frac{4}{3} [/tex]πr³
We have diameter = 18 in
Therefore: 
radius = 18/2 = 9 in
volume = [tex] \frac{4}{3} [/tex]π(9)³
final volume = 972π in³

Amount of air released:
amount of air released = initial volume - final volume
amount of air released = 2304π - 972π
amount of air released = 1332π = 4184.6 in³

rectangle abcd is similar to rectangle pqrs. given ab=14 cm, BC=8cm and pq=21cm, calculate the length of QR

Answers

QR =12 because you set up a proportion 21/14=x/8 then cross multiply and get 14x=168 then you divide and get 12

The length of QR in rectangle PQRS is 12 cm, found by setting up the proportional relationship 14/21 = 8/QR, where 14 cm and 8 cm are the lengths of sides AB and BC of rectangle ABCD, respectively, and 21 cm is the length of side PQ of rectangle PQRS.

Since rectangle ABCD is similar to rectangle PQRS, their corresponding sides are proportional. To find the length of QR, we will set up a proportion using the given lengths:

AB/PQ = BC/QR

Substituting the given lengths:

14/21 = 8/QR

Now, solve for QR:

QR = (21  * 8) / 14

QR = 168 / 14

QR = 12 cm

So, the length of QR in rectangle PQRS is 12 cm.

16x-10y=10
-8x-6y=6

can someone help me understand this question?

Answers

This is a system of equations, and I am assuming that you are being asked to solve it.

This is finding the point where these two lines intersect.

The key to solving these algebraically is finding one part in terms of another part and substituting.

We can solve this system by Gaussian elimination, first by multiplying the second equation in its entirety by 2, so that the x-terms will cancel.

We have 
[tex]16x-10y=10[/tex]
and 
[tex]2(-8x-6y=6)[/tex].

The last equation is rewritten as [tex]-16x-12y=12[/tex].

Now, we cancel the x-terms.

[tex]16x-10y=10[/tex]
[tex]-16x-12y=12[/tex]

[tex]-22y=22 \\ y = -1[/tex]

We have our value for y, so we just plug this back into any of the original equations to get x.

[tex]16x-10(-1)=10\\16x=0\\x=0[/tex]

Thus, the solution to the system of equations is the point [tex](0,-1)[/tex].

Suppose two fractions are both less than 1. Can their sum be greater than 1? greater than 2?

Answers

Their sum can be greater than 1 but it would be less than 2.

The biggest fraction which is less than 1 is 0.99

Sum of 0.99 + 0.99 = 1.98, which is greater than 1 but less than 2.
The sum can be greater than 1, but not two. For example say the fractions are, 3/4 and 5/6, the total is , 1 7/12. Which is greater than 1 but not two. It cannot be greater than 2 because fractions are a part of 1.UNLESS, it is a mixed number fractions, than they can be infinitely great. Such as 123 3/4 + 45 2/4 is definitely greater than 2.

In both cases, these practices cause soil to become more and the increasingly dry weather. As the soil loses nutrients and is loosened by other forces, it ceases to be able to grow any plant life, creating a situation in which the desert may slowly begin to creep into an area.The effects of desertification can be catastrophic. is the most common effect, and one that is not quickly or easily solved.
