Amy is x years old. Ben is 2 years older than Amy. Alice is six years younger than Amy.
a) Write an expression for Ben's age and Alice's age in terms of x.​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Amy = x years

Ben = x + 2  (years)

Alice = x - 6 (years)

Answer:

a)

Amy's age is x.

• Ben's age is 2 more than Amy's age.

∴ Ben's age = x + 2

• Alice's age is 6 less than Amy's age.

∴ Alice's age = x - 6

Which interval is the solution set to 0.35x – 4.8 < 5.2 – 0.9x? (–[infinity], –8) (–[infinity], 8) (–8, [infinity]) (8, [infinity])

Answers

(-∞,8) is interval is the solution to set 0.35x – 4.8 < 5.2 – 0.9x.

How to solve the inequality?

0.35x - 4.8 < 5.2 - 0.9x

Adding 0.9x to both sides of equation.

0.35x - 4.8 + 0.9x < 5.2 - 0.9x + 0.9x

1.25x - 4.8 < 5.2

Adding 4.8 to both sides of equation.

1.25x - 4.8 + 4.8< 5.2 + 4.8

1.25x < 10

Dividing both sides of equation by 1.25

x < [tex]\frac{10}{1.25}[/tex]

Hence x < 8

Thus, (-∞,8) interval is the solution to given set 0.35x – 4.8 < 5.2 – 0.9x.

Answer:

The answer is C: 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Your equation is equal to (3/2)/(4/2) due to absolute value (all numbers are positive even if negative symbol is infront of it) which is equal to 3/4.

Step-by-step explanation:

what is the real problem definition ?

is there now an absolute value around the top "-2", or not ?

in any case, remember, when we divide 2 rational numbers like this :

a/b / c/d

the result is

"outer multiplication" over "inner multiplication" :

a×d / b×c

as alternative you can always also say

a/b / c/d = a/b × d/c = a×d / b×c

so,

if the problem is

3/-2 / |-4/-2|

the result is

3×2 / 4×-2 = 6/-8 = - 3/4

if the problem is

3/|-2| / |-4/-2|

the result is

3×2 / 4×2 = 6/8 = 3/4

please pick the solution based on the actual problem.

Anna has been studying a type of bacteria that triples every month. originally, there were 4 bacterial cells. she wants to know how many there will be after 15 months. which equation should she use?

Answers

Anna should use the following equation,

[tex]a_{15} = 4(3)^{15}[/tex]

Equation for Determining the Number of Bacterial Cells

Initially, the count of bacterial cells = 4

It is given that the bacterial cell triples every month.

Hence, the equation for the count of bacterial cells after first month is,

a₁ = 4(3)

This count of 4(3) triples again in the second month.

So, after the second month, the equation for the count of bacterial cells is given by,

a₂ = 4(3)(3) = 4(3)²

Calculating the Count of Bacterial Cells For Each Month

Again, this count triples in the third month.

Therefore, the  equation for the count of bacterial cells after the third month becomes,

a₃ = 4(3)(3)(3) = 4(3)³

This count triples again in the fourth month and this process continues till 15 months.

Hence, the equation for determining the number of bacterial cells comes out to be as follows,

a₁₅ = 4(3)¹⁵

Answers

The surface area of the composite shape is: 315 in.².

What is the Surface Area of the Composite Shape?

Surface area = surface area of square pyramid + surface area of square prism - 2(base area)

Surface area of square pyramid = Area of base + 1/2(perimeter of base × slant height) = 9² + 1/2[4(9) × 7] = 207 in.²

Surface area of square prism = 2a² + 4ah = 2(9²) + 4(9)(3)

Surface area of square prism = 2(9²) + 4(9)(3) = 270 in.².

So sin is defined as [tex]\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}[/tex]. and cosine is defined as [tex]\frac{adjacent}{hypoteunse}[/tex]. So we need the adjacent side.

To the nearest tenth of a percent, by what percent is the number of bacteria expected to grow by each minute?
O .1%
O 1.0%
O 1.1%
O 1.4%

Answers

If my simplification is valid the answer is:

1.4 % growth each minute

I don’t feel like the representation
P = 120(1.82) is important in this certain problem.

So P the predicted number of bacteria is not practical with this problem.

Use the 82% per hour and divide it by 60 because there are 60 minutes in an hour.

When doing this you find the rate in which bacteria grows which is about 1.4%.

The prediction is about 1.82 percent for 120 something it’s not clarified, but I’m guessing that’s minutes.

So you can prove that the prediction is over the rate in which bacteria grows per minute.

Answers

A pair of points which is perpendicular to line L is: D. (3, -5),(-6, 3).

How to calculate the slope of a line?

Mathematically, the slope of any straight line can be calculated by using this formula;

[tex]Slope = \frac{Change\;in\;y\;axis}{Change\;in\;x\;axis}\\\\Slope = \frac{y_2\;-\;y_1}{x_2\;-\;x_1}[/tex]

For points A, we have:

[tex]Slope = \frac{3\;-\;(-6)}{3\;-\;(-9)}\\\\Slope = \frac{9}{12}[/tex]

Slope = 9/12.

For points B, we have:

[tex]Slope = \frac{6\;-\;(-2)}{-6\;-\;(-9)}\\\\Slope = \frac{8}{-3}[/tex]

Slope = -8/3.

For points C, we have:

[tex]Slope = \frac{3\;-\;(-6)}{3\;-\;(-5)}\\\\Slope = \frac{9}{8}[/tex]

Slope = 9/8.

For points D, we have:

[tex]Slope = \frac{3\;-\;(-5)}{-6\;-\;3}\\\\Slope = \frac{-8}{9}[/tex]

Slope = -8/9.

In Mathematics, the condition for perpendicularity of two lines is:

m₁ × m₂ = -1

9/8 × 8/9 = -1

Thus, points (3,−5) and (−6,3) are perpendicular to line L.
