Sergio is buying plums at $1.60

per pound. He buys at least 1

pound. The weight of each plum

is a quarter of a pound. Sergio

states he can buy a number of

plums that cost exactly $3.80.

Complete Parts A and B to show

Sergio's statement is false.



PLEASE HELP QUICKLY NO LINKSS!

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Sergio's statement is false

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of one pound of plum = 1.60

Total quantity of plum bought = 1

Weight of each plum = 1/4 pound

If he buys plum of $ 3.80 at the rate of $1.60 per pound, he purchases 2.375 pounds of plum

Weight of one plum = 1/4 pound, thus total number of plum purchased = 9.5

Since 0.5 pound of plum means half plum which is not possible to buy

Hence Sergio's statement is false

Miguel and Jacqui built towers out of craft sticks.Miguel's tower had a 4-inch base.Jaquis tower had a 6-inch base.Miguels tower had a volume of 128 cubic inches and jaquis had a volume of 288.Who's tower was taller

Answers

Answer:

Height is same for both the towers

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation is as follows;

For 1st tower

The height is

= 128 ÷ 4^2

= 8 inches

And,  

For the 2nd tower

The height is

= 288 ÷ 6^2

= 8 inches

So as we can see that the height of the both the tower is same i.e. 8 inches so the same should be considered

The motion of the ball from the time it was thrown upwards was modeled closely by the function,h(t)=-16t2+128t+144, where h(t) represents the height of the ball in feet after t seconds. After how many seconds did the ball reach the ground?
please I need help

Answers

Answer:

9 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

When the ball reaches the ground, the height, h(t), is 0. Might as well make the numbers easier to work with - since for the x-intercepts (t-intercepts), h(t) = 0, you can divide the entire equation by the greatest common factor, in this case -16, to make things better:

[tex]0=-16t^2+128t+144\\0=t^2-8t-9[/tex]

Now you can solve this any way you like, such as by using:

[tex]\frac{-b \± \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\[/tex]

This is an easy polynomial though, and you may be able to factor it just by eyeballing it:

[tex]0=t^2-8t-9\\0=(t-9)(t+1)\\t=9,-1[/tex]

You can't have negative time, so we reject -1, leaving only 9 as the answer.

A school club visits a science museum. Student tickets cost $10 each.

Which equation below could model this situation? *

B. 300=10x + 15y
C. 25x=300

B because 300 is the total. In order to get the total you would need to add 10x and 15y. Both x and y represent the amount of people.

37) The endpoint of the diameter in circle 0 are (-2,5) and (6,5), find the equation of the circle in standard form

Answers

Answer:

(x-2)^2+y^2=16

Step-by-step explanation:

If the center of the circle is (h,k) and the radius is r, then the equation of a circle is (x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2 (with the Pythagorean theorem)

So, the center of this circle 0 is (2,0) and the radius is 4. Thus, the equation is (x-2)^2+y^2=16

Answers

Answer:

lucas = 9

rafael = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

two equations can be derived from the question

r + l = 15 equation 1

r = l - 3  equation 2

r = rafael

l = lucas

substitute for r in equation 1

l - 3 + l = 15

combine similar terms

l + l = 15 + 3

2l = 18

l = 9

substitute for l in equation 1

r + 9 = 15

r = 15 -  9

r = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 1 = 2002

2002 - 2000 = 2 (the years since 2000)

y = (275 x 2) + 50

y = 875

Question 2 = 1425 likes

2005 - 2000 = 5 (the years since 2000)

y = (275 x 5) + 50

y = 1425

Question 3 = 2018

Since y = 5000

5000 - 50(the extra likes) = 4950

4950 / 275 = 18 (the years since 2000)

2000 + 18 = 2018 (the year)

What is the slope given the two points?
(-3,12) & (4,5)

Answers

Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

(-3 , 12)  & (4, 5)

Slope = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}\\[/tex]

          [tex]= \frac{5 - 12}{4-[-3]}\\\\= \frac{-7}{4+3}\\\\=\frac{-7}{7}\\\\= -1[/tex]

Answer: -1

Explanation:

Let, (-3,12) be (x1,y1) and (4,5) be (x2,y2)

We know that slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

So, slope of given two points = (5 - 12)/(4 - (-3))

= -7/(4+3)

= -7/7

= -1

Therefore, slope of given two points = -1

Put the following equation of a line into slope-intercept form, simplifying all

10x + 2y = -18

Answers

Answer:

y = -5x-9

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope intercept form is

y = mx+b  where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

10x + 2y = -18

Subtract 10x from each side

10x + 2y-10x =-10x -18

2y = -10x-18

Divide each side by 2

2y/2 = -10x/2 -18/2

y = -5x-9

Sides of a triangle is

The maximum angle is opposite to c.

So,

[tex]a =6, b =11, c = 12 \\\\cos C =\frac{a^2+b^2-c^2}{2 ab}\\\\cos C =\frac{36+121-144}{2\times 6\times 11}\\\\cos C = \frac{13}{132}\\\\cos C = 0.0985\\\\C =84.3^o[/tex]

Triangle ABC ~ Triangle DEF. Measure of angle A = 20
degrees and measure of angle F = 65 degrees. AB=10, DE = 15, EF= 12.
Find measure of angles B, E, D and C and the length of BC.

Answers

Answer:

B=95°

E=95°

D=20°

C=65°

BC=7cm

Step-by-step explanation:

the triangles look like they are identical, just different in size only. Since DE= 15 and AB=10 that may mean that they have a 5cm difference making side BC= 7cm since EF= 12 minus 5 equals 7cm. Now for the other angles, a triangle no matter what,if we put all their angles together equal 180°. We already know angle A= 20 so the same applies to angle D. We also know that angle F=65 degrees, that makes angle C the same. The only thing that's left are angles B and E that can be found by adding our other angles. So if A+C(20+65)=85 then 180-85=95 degrees is angle B and since the triangles are identical the same goes to E.
