Maura writes an expression equivalent to 8a - (-3 - 5a) - 2a. Her work is in the picture. In what step does Maura make a mistake? Describe her error and find the correct equivalent expression.

* 8a - (-3 - 5a) -2a *

Step 1: 8a + 3 - 5a - 2a
Step 2: (8a - 5a - 2a) + 3
Step 3: (3a - 2a) + 3
Step 4: a + 3

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

11a + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 : 8a + 3 - 5a - 2a

error => - 5a

8a - (- 3 - 5a) - 2a =

= 8a + 3 + 5a - 2a

= (8a + 5a - 2a) + 3

= 11a + 3

Answer 2

Answer:

11a+3

Step-by-step explanation:

8a-(-3-5a)-2a

Open the bracket first

8a+3+5a-2a

Collect like terms

8a+5a-2a+3

13a-2a+3

11a+3

So the final answer is 11a+3

The error is the that when you open the bracket the minus outside the bracket will multiply everything inside the bracket...and -×-=+

Margo deposited $100 into a savings account earning 4.5% simple annual interest. At the end of each year, she adds $100 to her account. Fill in the table below to figure out how much money was in Margo's account at the end of 3 years.

Answers

Answer:

                    principal     interest              total money in account

                                                                         at the end of year

Year one       $100             $4.5                              $104.5

year two        $200          $ 9 +$4.5                         $ 213.5

year three      $300          $ 9 +$4.5 + $13.5           $ 327

Step-by-step explanation:

Simple interest for any principal is given by

I = p* r* t/100

I = interest rate accrued on principle amount

p is the amount deposited

r is the rate of interest

t is the time period of saving

_______________________________________________

For year one

p = $100

r = 4.5%

t=1

I = 100*4.5*1/100 = 4.5

_______________________________________________

For year two $100 more is added to already existing $100 in account.

p = 100 +100 = $200

r = 4.5%

t=1

I = 200*4.5*1/100 = 9

_______________________________________________

For year two $100 more is added to already existing $200 in account after two years.

p = 100 +100 +100 = $300

r = 4.5%

t=1

I = 300*4.5*1/100 = 13.5

_______________________________________________

There fore total  money in Margo account is

$300 saving deposited by her

$4.5 + $9 + $13.5 = $27 (interest accrued in three time)

Formulating the results in tabular form

                     principal     interest    total money in account

                                                            at the end of year

How can you record hundredths as fractions and decimals?

Answers

Hundredths as fractions and decimals is given below.

Step-by-step explanation:

When we  write a decimal number, look at the decimal point first. If the last number is two places away from the decimal point, it is in the hundredths place. The number 0.39 would be written as thirty-nine hundredths. The nine is the last number and is in the hundredths place.

First, convert the decimal to fraction using tenths, hundredths, thousandths, etc. depending on the number of decimal places. e.g. 1.75 = 1 75/100. Next, simplify the fraction part to the lowest common term. e.g. 75/100 = 3/4.

5 hundredths is 5 over one hundred, 5 hundredths as a Fraction is 5/100. If you divide 5 by one hundred you get 5 hundredths as a decimal which is 0.05.To convert a fraction to decimal, we divide the numerator by the denominator using long division and to convert a fraction to percent, we convert the fraction to decimal and the decimal to percent. To convert a percent to decimal or fraction, we divide the percent by 100 and reduce the fraction.4 hundredths is 4 over one hundred, 4 hundredths as a Fraction is 4/100. If you divide 4 by one hundred you get 4 hundredths as a decimal which is 0.04.

Samuel and Sebastian go to the movie theater and purchase refreshments for their friends.

Samuel spends a total of $36.75 on 1 bag of popcorn and 3 drinks.

Sebastian spends a total of $138.00 on 3 bags of popcorn and 12 drinks.

Write a system of equations that can be used to find the price of one bag of popcorn and the price of one drink.

Using these equations, determine and state the price of a drink, to the nearest cent.

Answers

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

samuel---> 1pc+3dr=36.75

sebastian--->3pc+12dr=138

1pc+4dr=46

1pc+4dr=46

1pc+3dr=36.75

so 1 dr=46-36.75=$9.25

4dr is 9.25×4=37

so 1 pc=46-37=$9.00

Answer:

$9.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of popcorn: x

Cost of drink: y

x + 3y = 36.75

x = 36.75 - 3y

3x + 12y = 138

x + 4y = 46

36.75 - 3y + 4y = 46

y = 46 - 36.75

y = 9.25

Answers

Answer:

x = -6         x=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the roots, we set it equal to zero

(x + 6)(x + 3) =0

Using the zero product  property

x+6 =0        x+3 =0

x = -6         x=-3

Answer:

x=-6,x=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question we will have to solve one after another

(X+6)(x+3)

Let equate the equation to zero

So

(X+6)(x+3)=0

X+6=0

Substrate 6 from both sides

X=-6

X+3=0

Substrate 3 from both sides

x=-3

Therefore x=-6,x=-3

The fish population of Lake Collins is decreasing at a rate of 5% per year. In 2001 there were about 1,200 fish. Write an exponential decay function to model this situation. Then find the population in 2006.

Answers

The student's question involves creating an exponential decay function to determine the fish population in Lake Collins after five years, given a starting population in 2001 and a 5% annual decrease. The function is N(t) = 1200e^-rt, with r being 0.05 and t being 5. The estimated fish population for the year 2006 is approximately 935.

The student is asking for an exponential decay function to model the decrease in the fish population at Lake Collins. We are given that in 2001, there were about 1,200 fish, and the fish population is decreasing at a rate of 5% per year. To model this situation, we use the exponential decay formula:

N(t) = N0e-rt

Where:

N(t) is the fish population at time tN0 is the initial fish populationr is the decay rate (as a decimal)t is the time in years since the initial count

For this problem, the initial population N0 is 1,200, the decay rate r is 0.05 (since 5% is 0.05 as a decimal), and the time t we are interested in is 2006 - 2001 = 5 years. Plugging these values into the formula, we get:

N(5) = 1200e-0.05 * 5

Calculating N(5), the fish population in 2006, using the above formula:

N(5) = 1200e-0.25 ≈ 1200 * 0.7788 ≈ 935

Therefore, the estimated fish population in Lake Collins in 2006 would be approximately 935 fish.

April rewrote a quadratic function in vertex form.
h(x) = 5x2 – 30x + 30
Step 1: h(x) = 5(x2 - 6x+ + 30
Step 2: h(x) = 5(x2 - 6x + 9) + 30 – 45
Step 3: h(x) = 5(x - 3)2 + 15.
April said that the vertex is (3, 15). Is April correct?

Answers

Final answer:

April correctly transformed the quadratic function into vertex form, and the resulting vertex is (3, 15), as determined by the completion of the square method.

Explanation:

April is indeed correct about the vertex of the function h(x). The vertex form of a quadratic function is h(x) = a(x - h)^2 + k, where the point (h, k) is the vertex of the parabola. April has rewritten the quadratic function h(x) = 5x^2 - 30x + 30 into vertex form as h(x) = 5(x - 3)^2 + 15, indicating that the vertex is at (3, 15). This can be verified through the completion of the square method, where a perfect square trinomial is created by adding and subtracting the appropriate constant term. April added and subtracted 9 inside the parentheses, which is (6/2)^2, to keep the equation equivalent. Finally, she factored out the coefficient of the quadratic term (5) before completing the square, which is correct.

The Venn diagram represents probabilities associated with two events. A is the event that the student has a regular afterschool activity, and B is the event that the student comes to school by bus. What is the probability that the student has an after-school activity and does NOT come to school by bus?

Answers

Answer:

0.22

Step-by-step explanation:

Looking at the Venn Diagram,

the intersection "0.43" means coming via bus and having after-school activity.

"0.12" means students who does not come by bus and who does not have after-school activity.

Now, we want probability of "having after-school" activity (the area A) but NOT COMING VIA BUS (area outside B).

We want the area outside B but within A.

That area is labeled 0.22

Hence,

The probability that the student has an after-school activity and does NOT come to school by bus is 0.22
