Given:

The expression is

[tex]-2\dfrac{1}{3}-\left(-10\dfrac{1}{6}\right)[/tex]

To find:

The value of the expression.

Solution:

We have,

[tex]-2\dfrac{1}{3}-\left(-10\dfrac{1}{6}\right)=-2\dfrac{1}{3}+10\dfrac{1}{6}[/tex]

Convert the mixed fraction in improper fraction.

[tex]=-\dfrac{2\times 3+1}{3}+\dfrac{10\times 6+1}{6}[/tex]

[tex]=-\dfrac{6+1}{3}+\dfrac{60+1}{6}[/tex]

[tex]=-\dfrac{7}{3}+\dfrac{61}{6}[/tex]

Taking LCM, we get

[tex]=\dfrac{-2(7)+61}{6}[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{-14+61}{6}[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{42}{6}[/tex]

Convert it into mixed fraction.

[tex]=\dfrac{6(7)+5}{6}[/tex]

[tex]=7\dfrac{5}{6}[/tex]

Therefore, the correct option is C.

Answers

Answer:

x=1; y=1

Step-by-step explanation:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

y=-5x+6 ----------(1)

y=3x-2 ----------(2)

As L.H.S from equation 1 and 2 are equal R.H.S will also be equal

Therefore

-5x+6=3x-2

-5x-3x=-2-6

-8x=-8

x=1

put x=1 in equation (1)

y=-5×1+6

y=-5+6

y=1

Therefore , x=1 and y=1.

At a farmers' market Saturday, 5/8 of the vegetables sold were green. Of these, 3/4 were string beans. What fraction of the vegetables sold were string bean? (write your answer as a fraction)

Answers

Answer: 15/32

Step-by-step explanation:

The data that we have is:

5/8 of the vegetable sold where green.

of theses 5/8, 3/4 were string beans.

Then the 3/4 is applied to the 5/8 of green vegetables.

Then the fraction (of the total number of vegetables) that were string beans was:

F  = (3/4)*(5/8) = (3*5)/(4*8) = 15/32

Alan sells electronics, earning a base wage of $320 for one week, and a commission equal to 5% of his sales. he needs to earn at least $600 each week to cover his expenses. set up and solve an inequality to determine what Alans sales can be in order to ensure his expenses are covered.

Answers

Answer:

320 +0.05s ≥ 600sales ≥ $5600

Step-by-step explanation:

For sales of 's', Alan's earnings will be ...

  320 +0.05s

He wants that to be at least 600, so the inequality is ...

  320 +0.05s ≥ 600

__

Its solution is found by subtracting 320 and dividing by 0.05.

  0.05s ≥ 280

  s ≥ 5600

Alan's weekly sales must be at least $5600 for his earnings to cover his expenses.

2.Given point P is between M and N. If MN = 26, MP = x + 4, and PN = 2x + 1, what is the value of x? x = 3 x = 7 x = 12.5 x = 22

3.Given M is the midpoint of HJ, HM = 4x - 12, and MJ = 3x + 9. What is the value of x?

4.If D is the midpoint of CE, DE = 2x + 4, and CE = 6x + 2, then what is CD?

Answers

Answer:

1.   [tex]TV = 68[/tex]

2.  [tex]x = 7[/tex]

3.   [tex]x = 21[/tex]

4.    [tex]CD = 8[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving (1):

Given

[tex]RT = 63[/tex]

[tex]RV = 131[/tex]

Required

Determine TV

To solve TV, we make use of the following formula;

[tex]RV = RT + TV[/tex]

Substitute values for RT and RV

[tex]131 = 63 + TV[/tex]

Make TV the subject of formula

[tex]TV = 131 - 63[/tex]

[tex]TV = 68[/tex]

Solving (2):

Given

[tex]MN = 26[/tex]

[tex]MP = x + 4[/tex]

[tex]PN = 2x + 1[/tex]

Required

FInd x

To solve x, we make use of the following formula;

[tex]MN = MP + PN[/tex]

Substitute values for MP, MN and NP

[tex]26 =x + 4 + 2x + 1[/tex]

Collect Like Terms

[tex]2x + x = 26 - 4 -1[/tex]

[tex]3x = 21[/tex]

Divide both sides by 3

[tex]x = 7[/tex]

Solving (3):

Given

[tex]HM = 4x - 12[/tex]

[tex]MJ = 3x + 9[/tex]

Required

Find x

Since M is the midpoint;

[tex]HM = MJ[/tex]

This gives

[tex]4x - 12 = 3x + 9[/tex]

Collect Like Terms

[tex]4x - 3x = 12 + 9[/tex]

[tex]x = 21[/tex]

Solving (4):

Given

[tex]CE = 6x + 2[/tex]

[tex]DE = 2x + 4[/tex]

Required

FInd CD

Since D is the midpoint;

[tex]CD= DE[/tex]

and

[tex]CE = CD + DE[/tex]

Substitute CD for DE

[tex]CE = DE + DE[/tex]

[tex]CE = 2DE[/tex]

Substitute values for CE and DE

[tex]6x + 2 = 2(2x + 4)[/tex]

Open Bracket

[tex]6x + 2 = 4x + 8[/tex]

Collect Like Terms

[tex]6x - 4x = 8 - 2[/tex]

[tex]2x = 6[/tex]

Divide both sides by 2

[tex]x = 3[/tex]

Recall that;

[tex]CD= DE[/tex]

So;

[tex]CD = 2x + 4[/tex]

Substitute 2 for x

[tex]CD = 2 * 2 + 4[/tex]

[tex]CD = 4 + 4[/tex]

[tex]CD = 8[/tex]

Values of k for which the quadratic equation 2x - kx + k 0 has equal roots is
a)0only
b)4
c)8 only
d)0,8​

Answers

Answer:

The answer is D.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to apply Discriminant Law. When a quadratic equation, ax² + bx + c = 0 has equal roots so the discriminant will be 0. Then, you have to substitute the values into the formula :

[tex]D = {b}^{2} - 4ac[/tex]

[tex]let \: D = 0 ,a = 2,b = k,c = k[/tex]

[tex]0 = {k}^{2} - 4(2)(k)[/tex]

[tex] {k}^{2} - 8k = 0[/tex]

[tex]k(k - 8) = 0[/tex]

[tex]k = 0[/tex]

[tex]k - 8 = 0[/tex]

[tex]k = 8[/tex]

Wetlands offer a diversity of benefits. They provide a habitat for wildlife, spawning grounds for U.S. commercial fish, and renewable timber resources. In the last 200 years, the United States has lost more than half its wetlands. Environmental Almanac gives the percentage of wetlands lost in each state in the last 200 years. For the lower 48 states, the percentage loss of wetlands per state is as follows:
46 37 36 42 81 20 73 59 35 50
87 52 24 27 38 56 39 74 56 31

48 38 60 46 87 50 89 49 67
The percentages are concentrated from 20% to 60% The percentages are concentrated from 60% to 90%
There is a gap showing that none of the lower 48 states has lost from 60% to 69% of its wetlands.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is

[tex]( - 5 \: , \: - \frac{15}{2} )[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The midpoint M of two endpoints of a given line segment can be found by using the formula

[tex]M = ( \frac{x1 + x2}{2} , \frac{y1 + y2}{2} )[/tex]

where

(x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) are the points

From the question the points are

(-4, -9), (-6, -6)

The midpoint is

[tex]M = ( \frac{ - 4 - 6}{2} , \: \frac{ - 9 - 6}{2} ) \\ = ( - \frac{10}{2} , - \frac{15}{2} )[/tex]

An ad for an above-ground pool states that it is 25 m2. From the ad, you can tell that the pool is a circle. If you swim from one point at the edge of the pool to another, along a straight line, what is the longest distance d you can swim? Express your answer in three significant figures.

Answers

Answer:

d ≈ 5.64 m

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that the pool is circular and that the area is 25 m².

Now, the longest chord that connects two points in a circle is the diameter.

Thus, the longest distance d will be the diameter

Area of circle is given by the formula;

A = πr²

Thus;

25 = πr²

r² = 25/π

r = √(25/π)

r = 5/√π

Diameter is twice the radius. Thus;

d = 2 × 5/√π

d = 10/√π

d ≈ 5.64 m
