Answer 1

Answer:

First x=-13 (The sum of a number and three is divided by five. The result is negative two.)

Second x=-10 (Half of a number is added to four. This sum is equivalent to negative one.)

Third x=-3.5 (The sum of a number and two is equal to the quotient of six and negative four.)

Fourth x=3.25 (The difference between four times a number and five has a result of negative eight.)

Fifth  x=12 ( The difference between a number and five is multiplied by negative two. The  resulting product equals fourteen. )

Step-by-step explanation:

We will consider number = x

1. Half of a number is added to four. This sum is equivalent to negative one.

[tex]\frac{1}{2}x+4=-1[/tex]

Now solving to find value of x

[tex]\frac{1}{2}x+4=-1\\\frac{1}{2}x=-1-4\\\frac{1}{2}x=-5\\x=-5*2\\x=-10[/tex]

So, value of x=-10

2. The sum of a number and three is divided by five. The result is negative two.

[tex]\frac{x+3}{5}=-2[/tex]

Solving:

[tex]\frac{x+3}{5}=-2\\x+3=-2*5\\x+3=-10\\x=-10-3\\x=-13[/tex]

So, value of x=-13

3. The difference between four times a number and five has a result of negative eight.

[tex]4x-5=-8[/tex]

Solving:

[tex]4x-5=8\\4x=8+5\\4x=13\\x=13/4\\x=3.25[/tex]

So, value of x=3.25

4. The difference between a number and five is multiplied by negative two. The  resulting product equals fourteen.

[tex](x-5)*-2=-14[/tex]

Solving

[tex](x-5)*-2=-14\\-2x+10=-14\\-2x=-14-10\\-2x=-24\\x=-24/-2\\x=12[/tex]

So, value of x=12

5. The sum of a number and two is equal to the quotient of six and negative four.

[tex]x+2=\frac{6}{-4}[/tex]

Solving:

[tex]x+2=\frac{6}{-4}\\x+2=-\frac{3}{2}\\x= -\frac{3}{2}-2\\x=\frac{-3-2*2}{2} \\x=\frac{-3-4}{2} \\x=\frac{-7}{2} \\x=-3.5[/tex]

So, value of x=-3.5

Now arranging based on values of x

x=-10, x=-13, x=3.25, x=12, x=-3.5

First x=-13 (The sum of a number and three is divided by five. The result is negative two.)

Second x=-10 (Half of a number is added to four. This sum is equivalent to negative one.)

Third x=-3.5 (The sum of a number and two is equal to the quotient of six and negative four.)

Fourth x=3.25 (The difference between four times a number and five has a result of negative eight.)

Fifth  x=12 ( The difference between a number and five is multiplied by negative two. The  resulting product equals fourteen. )

Anna makes unique jewelry. The owner of the "Unique" store agreed with Anna to deliver 20 bracelets a week. At the moment, Anna has 80 bracelets made, and can make 17 bracelets a week. For how many consecutive weeks will Anna be able to supply her bracelets to the "Unique" store?

Answers

Answer:

7 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

80 ÷ 20 = 4

She over those four week she makes 17 per week. So,

17 × 4 = 68

Next, divide the product by 20:

68 ÷ 20 = 3.4

But 3.4 is only 3 full weeks so then its 3.

Lastly, add the 3 weeks we just solved for the the 4 weeks from before and you get 7 weeks.

So, Anna will be able to supply the "Unique" store for 7 weeks.

Answers

Answer:

160 students in the 6th grade.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 160 students in the 6th grade because if 48 students is 30 percent then 10 percent is 16.  Meaning that 100 percent would be 160.

Students l Percent

The answer would be A because if you combine all the like terms you will get A as a result.

-2x^2+8x-9+4x+7x^2+2
-2x^2+7x^2 combine both of these and it will get you 5x^2
And then you would do 8x+4x which would be 12x and lastly you would -9+2 which would be -7 so the answer is A.

Review the diagram.

On a coordinate plane, a vector labeled 120 meters forms angle 25 degrees with the x-axis. It goes to point mirror 1. Another vector labeled 90 meters goes from point mirror 1 to mirror 2. It forms angle 20 degrees with a horizontal line. Point mirror 2 goes to (0, 0).

A laser beam is aimed 25° from horizontal at a mirror 120 m away. The beam bounces off the mirror and continues for an additional 90 m at 20° above horizontal until it hits a target, mirror 2. What is the distance between the origination point and the target?

approximately 85 m
approximately 122 m
approximately 174 m
approximately 194 m

Answers

Answer:

Approximately 85 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the distance between the origination point and the target

Distance between original point and mirror 1 = 120 m

Distance between mirror 1 and mirror 2 = 90 m

The measure of angle Opposite the distance between the origination point and the target = 20 + 25 = 45°

Use Cosine rule to find x as shown below:

Use The Law of Cosines to find side a first:

[tex] a^2 = b^2 + c^2 - 2bc \times Cos(A) [/tex]

Where,

a = x

b = 90 m

c = 120 m

A = 45°

Plug in the values

[tex] x^2 = 90^2 + 120^2 - 2(90)(120) \times Cos(45) [/tex]

[tex] x^2 = 22,500 - 21,600 \times Cos(45) [/tex]

[tex] x^2 = 22,500 - 15,273.5065 [/tex]

[tex] x^2 = 7,226.4935 [/tex]

Square both sides

[tex] x = \sqrt{7,226.4935} [/tex]

[tex] x = \sqrt{7,226.4935} [/tex]

x ≈ 85 m

the length of a rectangle is 4 feet longer than its width.its area is 32 square feet.what are its dimensions?

Answers

Answer: Length=8, Width=4

Step-by-step explanation: I did this by trial and error, but you can also use an equation. The length is x+4, the width is x. Your equation would be x(x+4)=32. That is equal to x^2+4x=32. Solve this by completing the square. X^2+4x+ (4/2)^2=32+ (4/2)^2

X^2+4x+4=36. (X+2)(x+2)=36. X+2=6, x=4.

What are the coordinates of the vertex of the graph of the absolute value function h(x) = 3|x + 5| + 2?

Answers

Answer:

(-5,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

h(x) = 3|x + 5| + 2 is an absolute value function in vertex form. Vertex form is f(x) = a | x - h | + k with a vertex at (h,k). So find h and k in the function, 3|x + 5| + 2, but remember in the formula h is negative so flip the sign of what ever is in your function. So if h=-5 and k=2, then the vertex is (-5,2).

But this school in Japan is way different, they want families to pay 80,000 Yen or $735 in the U.S. This is outrageous and should not be allowed as some families could maybe not afford it or families who are going through hard times. Nevertheless, Families should not have to pay hundreds of dollars for uniforms, and why people should think this too. According to the article Is this uniform too much? Wada explains that He knows the uniform costs more last year, but he considers it worth the price because multiple boutiques are near the school. Others tell Wada it is not a good idea as it is a public school so most people will have different financial backgrounds. To wrap it up, it is not a good idea as it is a public school and most families could be struggling, and it is a public school in last year the uniforms are cheaper so they should just go with that option.
