Answer:

Check attached

Step-by-step explanation:

[] The first one you add

    () -8 + 9 = 1

    () -2/5 + 1/5 = -1/5

    () 1/1 = 5/5, 5/5 - 1/5 = 4/5

[] The second one you subtract, the + and - become a -

    () 9 - 5 = 4

    () 2/5 - 3/5 = -1/5

    () 4 - 1/5 = 3 4/5

    () 3 * 5 = 15, 15 + 4 = 19/5

[] The third one you add

    () 2 + 2 = 4

    () 1/5 + 2/5 = 3/5

    () 4* 5 = 20, 20 + 3 = 23/5

for the equation y=ax^2 how does the sign of coefficient affect the graph of the curve

Answers

Answer:

The sign of the coefficient determines the direction of where the graph opens.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the quadratic equation, y = ax²:

The sign of the coefficient, a, affects the graph of the curve as it determines the direction of where the graph opens.

If the value of a is negative (a < 0), then the graph of the parabola opens downward. If the value of a is positive (a > 1), then the graph of the parabola opens upward.  

 

Please see the attached screenshots of the graphed equations (y = -x², and y = x²), to show the effects of changing the sign of a quadratic equation's coefficient.

I got 12 but my teacher said it was wrong? what's the right answer then?​

Answers

Answer:

it is 12 but you probably didnt show our work

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is an example you can use:I multiplied 15 by .80 because I know that 4/5 is 80 of 100.

Answer:

0.12

Step-by-step explanation:

This is probably where you got confused

4/5% = 0.8%

-------------------------

15 / 10 = 1.5

1.5 / 10 = 0.15

0.15 / 10 = 0.015

or

15 / 1000 = 0.015

-------------------------

0.015 x 5 = 0.075

0.015 x 3 = 0.045

0.075 + 0.045 = 0.12

More Detailed Version

4/5 of 1% = 0.8%

0.8% is in the thousandths digit

15 / 1000 = 0.015

0.015 x 5 = 0.075

0.015 x 3 = 0.045

0.075 + 0.045 = 0.12

Answers

Multiplication:-

a. 7/3 × 2/9 = 7x2/3x9 = 14/27.

b. 3/7 × 5/11 = 3×5/7×11 = 15/77.

c. 15/8 × 6/25 = 3×3/4×5 = 9/20.

d. 21/20 × 15/14 = 3×3/4×2 = 9/8.

Division:

a. 3/4 ÷ 5/7 = 3/4 x 7/5 = 21/12 = (3 x 7) / (3 x 4) = 7/4

b. 9/5 ÷ 6/11 = 9/5 x 11/6 = 99/30 = (3 x 33) / (3 x 10) = 33/10

c. 15/8 ÷ 6 = 15/8 x 1/6 = 15/48 = (3 x 15) / (3 x 16) = 15/16

d. 8/7 ÷ 12 = 8/7 x 1/12 = 8/84 = (4 x 2) / (4 x 21) = 2/21.

Culcul constant des fractions:

a. 3/7 + 15/7 x 3/2

= 3/7 + 45/14

= (3 x 2) / (7 x 2) + 45/14

= 6/14 + 45/14

= 51/14

b. 9/5 x (1/4 - 5/12)

= 9/5 x [(1 x 3) / (4 x 3) - 5/12]

= 9/5 x (3/12 - 5/12)

= 9/5 - 2/12

= (9 x 12) / (5 x 12) - (2 x 5) / (12 x 5)

= 108/60 - 10/60

= 98/60

= (2x 49) / (2 x 30)

= 49/30.

c. (3/8 + 7/5) ÷ (9/4 - 5/3)

= [(3 x 5) / (8 x 5) + (7 x 8) / (5 x 8)] ÷ [(9 x 3) / (4 x 3) - (5 x 4) / (3 x 4)]

= (15/40 + 56/40) ÷ (24/12 - 20/12)

= 71/40 ÷ 4/12

= 71/40 x 12/4

= 852/160

= (4 x 213) / (4 x 40)

= 213/40.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) 8316/99=84

You take to whole and divide it by the length to get the width.

b) 288-58-58=172/2=86

You take the width and subtract it from the perimeter twice because there are two sides. then take that answer and divide it by two to get what your last two sides equal. This gives you the length.

Two sisters share an inheritance of $1 million by a ratio of 2:3. How much does each sister inherit

Answers

Answer:

$400,000 and $600,000

Step-by-step explanation:

2x = one sister amount

3x = the other sister amount

Total money = $1,000,000

5x = 1,000,000

 x =  1,000,000/5

 x = 200,000

2x = 2(200,000)  = $400,000

3x = 3(200,000) = $600,000

Check:  one sister amount + the other sister amount = $1, 000,000

              $400,000 + $600,000 = $1,000,000

ratio 2:3=2+3=5

so the first sisters share is

(2/5×1,000,000)

=200,000×2

=400,000.....thats the first sisters share

so....the second sister's share is

(3/5×1,000,000)

=3×200,000

=600,000.....thats the second sisters share

and to check if your answer is correct

you can add both of their shares

600,000+400,000=1,000,000.

How Long will it take each student plan to be paid down to $1000?

Answers

The corresponding answers for each student plan are:

plan A: 15 years

plan B: 5 years

plan C: 10 years

plan D: 9 years

Thus, first, the graph corresponding to each of the plans must be analyzed. The Y-axis corresponds to money and the x-axis corresponds to the time in years.

Thus, in-plane A, it can be observed that to reach the desired value, the graph will be projected in exponential, so it will be close to 15 years. In plan B, this projection will be reached around 5 years. In plans C and D, this projection will be 10 years and 9 years respectively.

Jared’s average daily balance for last month was $560. The finance charge was $8.12.

a. What was the monthly percentage rate?
b. What was the APR?

Answers

Answer:

A) monthly percentage rate = 1.45%

B) APR = 17.4%

The monthly percentage rate was 1.45 % and the annual percentage rate was 17.4%.

What is the percentage?

The percentage is defined as a ratio expressed as a fraction of 100.

We have been given that Jared’s average daily balance for last month was $560. The finance charge was $8.12.

We have to determine the monthly percentage rate.

The monthly percentage rate is the percentage ratio of the finance charge to the average daily balance.

The monthly percentage rate = finance charge / average daily balance

The monthly percentage rate = $8.12 / $560 × 100

The monthly percentage rate = 0.0145 × 100

The monthly percentage rate = 1.45 %

The Annual percentage rate = 12 × monthly percentage rate

The Annual percentage rate = 12 × 1.45 %

The Annual percentage rate = 17.4 %

Therefore, the monthly percentage rate was 1.45 % and the annual percentage rate was 17.4%.
