Answer:

B. -x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression

[tex]\dfrac{8-4(x-6)}{4}[/tex]

Consider the numerator [tex]8-4(x-6).[/tex]

First, use distributive property:

[tex]8-4(x-6)=8-(4x-24)[/tex]

Open the brackets:

[tex]8-(4x-24)=8-4x+24[/tex]

Combine the like terms:

[tex]8-4x+24=(8+24)-4x=32-4x[/tex]

Again use distributive property:

[tex]32-4x=4\cdot 8-4x=4(8-x)[/tex]

Now, the expression is

[tex]\dfrac{4(8-x)}{4}=8-x\ \text{or}\ -x+8[/tex]

Answer:

Let l be the length and w the width of the rectangle.

P as the perimeter and A as the area.

length of a rectangle is four times the width:

w = w

l = 4w

System of equation : 2l + 2w = P

Substitute:

2(4w) + 2w = 45

8w + 2w

10w = 45

w = 45 / 10

w = 4.5

Solve for l:

l = 4w

l = 4(4.5)

l = 18

Area:

A = lw

A = 18(4.5)

A = 81 in²

Answer:

area =81  square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

width =w

lenght= 4w

2w + 2(4w)=45

10w=45

w=4.5

l= 4.5(4) = 18

4.5+4.5 +18+18 = 45

Area = l*w

4.5*18 = 81

Area= 81 square inches

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

We take the percentage raise and convert to decimal by dividing by 100. Then multiply this with the salary before raise. This will give us the "raise amount".

Then we will add up all of the "raises" of 3 employees to get our answer.

Jane = 4/100 = 0.04

0.04*41,500 = 1660

John = 4.5/100 = 0.045

0.045 * 44,100 = 1984.5

Jack = 3/100 = 0.03

0.03 * 39,600 = 1188

Sum of all 3 raises:

1660 + 1984.5 + 1188 = $4832.5

From the answer choices, A is the closest, $4833

Answer:

Pretty sure the answer is 20 :)

Answer:

20 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, diagonal of the television screen is given to be 25 inch and the  width of the television set is given to be 15 inches and we are asked to find the height of the screen.

We can solve this question using the Pythagoras theorem.

The Pythagoras theorem states that in a right-angle triangle;

opposite²  +  adjacent²  = hypotenuse²

From the question, the width is given to be 15 inches, the with is  our adjacent. Also the diagonal is given to be 25 inches, the diagonal is  our hypotenuse. And we were ask to find the height, the height is our opposite.

so;

opposite = ?  

adjacent = 15

hypotenuse = 25

Let opposite = x

we can now substitute into our theorem;

opposite²  +  adjacent²  = hypotenuse²

x²     +    15²  = 25²

x²   =   25²  -   15²

x²    =  625  -  225

x²   = 400

x    =  √400

x     =  20

opposite  =  20 inches

Since opposite is the height of the screen, then the height of the screen is 20 inches.

Therefore the height of the screen is 20 inches.  

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

he whole assignment seems to deal only with one simple concept, a direct variation

Sometimes text or your notes have definitions that are difficult to understand.

Here is the definition that is easy to understand:

A direct variation gives you an equation that contains no constants, and there are no exponents on the two variables.

e.g. y = 8x is a direct variation,

but y = 8x + 4 is NOT, since I see a constant of 4

a direct variation can be written in the form

y = kx , where k is the constant of variation

#1, not a variation, I see a +1 sitting there as a constant

#2, yes it is a direct variation:

-12x = 6y

6y = -12x

y = -2x

so the constant of variation is -2 , if y varies directly with x

or

-12x = 6y

x = -(1/2)x

now the constant of variation is -1/2 , if x varies directly as y

so it depends how you express the equation, either in terms of x or in terms of y

#3,

.7x - 1.4y = 0

.7x = 1.4y

1.4y = .7x

y = (.7/1.4)x = (1/2)x

so , yes it is, and the constant of variation is 1/2

From #4 on, you have to first find the equation.

I will do #4, you try the remaining.

#4, they tell us it is a direct variation, so it must look like

y = kx

They give us x=2 when y = -10

let's plug in those values:

-10 = k(2)

2k = -10

k = -5

aaahhhh, so y = -5x is our equation

#6, same way, just some fractions to deal with

#7, to graph, pick any x, and find the y to get ordered pairs,

e.g. let x = 3, then y = (1/3)(3) = 1, --> point(3,1)

let x = 9, then y = (1/3)(9) = 3 ---> point (9,3)

plot those two points, and join with a straight line

Notice how I picked multiple of 3's for my x's so I could take 1/3 of the x without ending up with fractions?

#8 , same as #7, pick multiples of 2 for your x's

#9 and #10 are the same type

#9

assume it is a direct variation, then its equation must be

y = kx

use the first given data: x = 3, y = 5.4

then 5.4 = k(3)

3k = 4.5

k = 1.5

equation is y = 1.5x

do the other points satisfy our equation?

for (7, 12.6)

is 12.6 = 1.5(7) ?

12.6 = 10.5 ??? NO, so the given data is NOT a direct variation

#10 same way

Answer:1. 2y=5x+1 answer is A Not a direct variation

2. -12x=6y answer is D Direct variation, constant of variation is -2

3. 0.7x-1.4y=0 answer is B Direct variation, constant is 1/2

4. y=-10 when x=2 answer is A y=-5x

5. y=7 1/2 when x=3 answer is C y=5/2 x

6. y=10.4 when x=4 answer is D y=2.6x

7. y=1/3 x answer is A the graph that reads (6, 2) where the green arrow is on the top right portion and on the bottom left is (-6, -2)

8 y=-1/2 x answer is C graph

9. the table x is first 3, 7, 12 y is next 5.4, 12.6, 21.6 answer is B Direct variation, y=1.8x

10. the table x is first -2, 3, 8 y is next 1, 6, 11 answer is A not a direct variation

p.s. this is for the direct variation practice

Answer:

900 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Plan A: 700 free minutes + 15 cents per minute over 700 ($40)

Plan B: 500 free minutes + 5 cents per minute over 500 ($50)

The charges for x minutes (assumed x>700) for plan A will be

40+0.15(x-700)

The charges for x minutes (assumed x>500) for plan B will be

50+0.05(x-500)

To find the value of x where both charges are the same, we equate

40+0.15(x-700)=50+0.05(x-500)

Operating

40+0.15x-105=50+0.05x-25

Simplifying

0.10x=90

x=900 minutes

Both plans would charge the same amount when 900 minutes per month are used

Answer:

She should sell 20 band posters from total 80 to keep the maintain the same ratio.

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of movie posters collector has  = 120

The total number of band posters collector has  = 80

The current ratio of movie poster : band poster  = 120 : 100

or, reducing the ratio further, we get

ratio of movie poster : band poster  = 6 : 5   ......  (1)

Now, the number of posters she wants to sell = 24

So, the remaining movie poster left = 120 - 24  = 96

Let us assume she sells m band posters to keep the ratio equal.

So, the number of band posters she is left with = 100 - m

⇒The ratio of movie poster left  : band poster  left = 96 : 100 - m  .. (2)

Now here as the ratio remains same after selling m band posters, so

[tex]\frac{6}{5}  = \frac{96}{100 - m} \\\implies 100 - m = 96 \times\frac{5}{6} =  80\\or, 100 - 80 = m\\\implies  m= 20[/tex]

or, m = 20

Hence, she should sell 20 band posters from total 80 to keep the maintain the same ratio.

A graph of a right-angled triangle, ΔABC with side lengths of 3, 4, and 5 units is shown in the picture below.

In Mathematics and Euclidean Geometry, a triangle is a two-dimensional geometric shape that comprises three side lengths, three vertices and three angles only.

Generally speaking, there are five major types of triangle based on the length of their side lengths and angles, and these include the following;

In this scenario, the lengths of three of the sides of the triangle and the measure of the included angle are;

The measure of arc QPN is 148° if the measure of angle QNT is 74°.

Given a circle with center O.

TS is the tangent of the circle at point N.

From the figure, we have, ∠ONT = 90°, since the angle formed at the tangent by the diameter is always the right angle.

Now,

m∠ONT = m∠QNT + m∠ONQ

Substitute the values.

90° = 74° + m∠ONQ

m∠ONQ = 90 - 74 = 16°

Now, from triangle QNO, OQ = ON, since, both are radii of the same circle.

The angle which lies opposite to these sides will be also equal.

So, m∠ONQ = m∠OQN =  16°.

Now, by the angle sum property of a triangle, the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°.

So,

m∠ONQ + m∠OQN + m∠QON = 180°

16° + 16° + m∠QON = 180°

m∠QON = 180° - (16° + 16°)

m∠QON = 148°

The measure of arc QPN is equal to the central angle = 148°

For 2.5 x - 1.75 = 5 (7 - 0 5 x) ,   x  = 1.47/1.1

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given equation is :  2.5 x - 1.75 = 5 (7 - 0 5x)

By DISTRIBUTIVE PROPERTY:

A(B -  C) =  AB - AC

Solving for the value of x , we get:

2.5 x - 1.75 = 5 (7 - 0 5 x)

⇒ 2.5 x - 1.75 = 5 (7)  - 5 (05 x)

⇒ 2. 5 x - 1. 75 = 35 - 25 x

or, 2. 5 x + 25 x = 35 + 1. 75

or, 27 . 5 x = 36.75

⇒ x =  36.75/ 27.5  =  7.35/ 5.5 = 1.47/1.1

or, x  = 1.47/1.1

Hence, for 2.5 x - 1.75 = 5 (7 - 0 5 x) ,   x  = 1.47/1.1

Total number of Jelly beans in the sack = 72

Number of red beans = 36

Number of green beans = 12

Number of yellow beans = 12

Number of orange beans = 6

Number of black beans = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let total number of jelly beans be =[tex]x[/tex]

We are given fractions of different colors of beans. To find the exact number of beans we need to multiply the fraction with the total number of beans.

Fraction of total are red beans = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Number of red beans = [tex]\frac{1}{2}\times x= \frac{x}{2}[/tex]

Fraction of total are green beans = [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex]

Number of green beans = [tex]\frac{1}{6}\times x= \frac{x}{6}[/tex]

Fraction of total are yellow beans = [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex]

Number of yellow beans = [tex]\frac{1}{6}\times x= \frac{x}{6}[/tex]

Fraction of total are orange beans = [tex]\frac{1}{12}[/tex]

Number of orange beans = [tex]\frac{1}{12}\times x= \frac{x}{12}[/tex]

Number of black beans = 6

Total number of beans can be given as

[tex] \frac{x}{2}+\frac{x}{6}+\frac{x}{6}+\frac{x}{12}+6[/tex]

Since we assumed total number of beans to be [tex]x[/tex], so we have.

[tex] \frac{x}{2}+\frac{x}{6}+\frac{x}{6}+\frac{x}{12}+6=x[/tex]

Multiplying each term by 12 to remove fractions.

[tex] (12\times\frac{x}{2})+(12\times\frac{x}{6})+(12\times\frac{x}{6})+(12\times\frac{x}{12})+(12\times6)=12\times x[/tex]

[tex]6x+2x+2x+x+72=12x[/tex]

combining like terms.

[tex]11x+72=12x[/tex]

Subtracting both sides by [tex]11x[/tex]

[tex]11x+72-11x=12x=11x[/tex]

[tex]72=x[/tex]

∴ [tex]x=72[/tex]

Total number of Jelly beans in the sack = 72

Number of red beans = [tex]\frac{1}{2}\times 72= 36[/tex]

Number of green beans = [tex]\frac{1}{6}\times 72= 12[/tex]

Number of yellow beans = [tex]\frac{1}{6}\times 72= 12[/tex]

Number of orange beans = [tex]\frac{1}{12}\times 72= 6[/tex]

number of black beans = 6

Justin has 72 jelly beans in total. By dividing the total number accordingly, he has 36 red, 12 green, 12 yellow, 6 orange, and 6 black jelly beans.

Let's assume the total number of jelly beans Justin has is represented by the variable x. We know that half of them are red, so there are x/2 red jelly beans. Similarly, since 1/6 are green and another 1/6 are yellow, there are x/6 green jelly beans and x/6 yellow jelly beans. As for the orange jelly beans, they represent 1/12 of the total, which means Justin has x/12 orange jelly beans. We are given that there are 6 black jelly beans, which do not need to be divided into fractions. To find the total, x, we can write an equation considering all the portions mentioned and the known number of black jelly beans:

x/2 (red) + x/6 (green) + x/6 (yellow) + x/12 (orange) + 6 (black) = x

Finding a common denominator (12), we rewrite the equation:

6x/12 + 2x/12 + 2x/12 + x/12 + 6 = x

Combine like terms:

(6x + 2x + 2x + x)/12 + 6 = x

11x/12 + 6 = x

To solve for x, subtract 11x/12 from both sides:

6 = x - 11x/12

6 = x(12/12) - 11x/12

6 = (12x - 11x)/12

6 = x/12

Multiplying both sides by 12 gives us:

x = 72

So, Justin has a total of 72 jelly beans. Calculating the number for each color:

In conclusion, Justin has 36 red, 12 green, 12 yellow, 6 orange, and 6 black jelly beans, adding up to a total of 72 jelly beans.

Answer:

a. 4 represents the amount of pounds of strawberries each friend got.

b. 4 represents the number of friends who were sharing the strawberries.

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to analize the information given in the exercise.

You know that the total amount of pounds of strawberries that are shared equally is:

[tex]Total=20\ lb[/tex]

a. Then if the group of people is formed by 5 friends, you need to divide the total pounds of strawberries that by 5 in order to calculate the amount of pounds of strawberries each one of them got.

If in the equation [tex]20\div5=4[/tex], 5 represents the number of people, then 4 represents the amount of pounds of strawberries each friend got.

b. If each person got 5 pounds of strawberries, you can calculate the number of friends who was sharing them by dividing the total pounds of strawberries by 5.

So, if in the equation [tex]20\div5=4[/tex],  5 represents the pounds of strawberries per person, then 4 represents the number of friends who were sharing the strawberries.

The mathematics problem given, namely 20 divided by 5 equals 4, represents the principle of equally distributing 20 strawberries among 5 friends. Each friend gets 4 strawberries.

The subject of your question is mathematics. The equation 20 divided by 5 equals 4 represents how twenty pounds of strawberries can be equally divided among a group of five friends. This is a division problem, an essential operation in arithmetic.

The principle it is demonstrating is how to distribute something equally among a group. In this case, if we have 20 strawberries and need to distribute them evenly among 5 friends, each friend will receive 4 strawberries. This is represented mathematically as 20 (total strawberries) divided by 5 (number of friends) equals 4 (strawberries per friend). So, your equation is correct.
