Answer:

Herman is wrong.  Latoya got the better deal.

Step-by-step explanation:

Latoya bought 8 pounds of potatoes for $18.

    ► 18 / 8 = $2.25 per pound

Herman bought 6 pounds of potatoes for $15.

    ► 15 / 6 = $2.50 per pound

Cheaper per pound is better!

Answer:

x=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation:

8^x= 1/64

Ensure both sides of the equation are in power format by changing 1/64

1/64 = 64^-1

8^x = 64^-1

2^3(x) = 2^6(-1)

The bases will cancel out each other

3(x) = 6(-1)

3x = -6

x = -6/3

x = -2

Check

8^x = 1/64

x = -2

8^-2

= 1/8²

= 1/8*8

= 1/64

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Lower rectangle =  4 * 12 =   48  in^2

Upper trapezoid  1/2 ( 5 + 12 ) *  6 = 51 in^2

total = 48 +  51 = 99 in^2

The probability that she will NOT take out an orange, then an apple, and finally a grapefruit in that order is 0.2917.

Probability helps us to know the chances of an event occurring.

[tex]\rm Probability=\dfrac{Desired\ Outcomes}{Total\ Number\ of\ outcomes\ possible}[/tex]

A.) The probability that she will NOT randomly take out two oranges in a row,

Probability = 1 - (5/12)² = 0.8264

B.) The probability that she will NOT randomly take out two grapefruits in a row,

Probability = 1 - (4/12)² = 0.8264 = 0.8889

C.) The probability that she will NOT randomly take out two apples in a row,

Probability = 1 - (3/12)² = 0.8264 = 0.9375

D.) The probability that she will NOT take out an orange, then an apple, and finally a grapefruit in that order,

Probability = (7/12) × (9/12) × (8/12) = 0.2917

This should help you

The solutions of the given quadratic equation are:

[tex]x = \frac{-7 + \sqrt{17} }{2} \\\\x = \frac{-7 - \sqrt{17} }{2}[/tex]

Here we have the quadratic equation:

[tex]x^2 = -7x - 8[/tex]

To solve it, we can rewrite it as:

[tex]x^2 + 7x + 8 = 0[/tex]

Now if we use Bhaskara's formula, we get the solutions:

[tex]x = \frac{-7 \pm \sqrt{(7)^2 - 4*1*(8)} }{2} \\\\x = \frac{-7 \pm \sqrt{17} }{2}[/tex]

Then the two solutions are:

Answer: 17

Step-by-step explanation:

Don't forget about PEMDAS. (parentheses, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, subtraction)

Start with parentheses

(3+13-10)... 13+3= 16, 16-10=6 ...

so (3+13-10)=6

Now we have...

6 + 14 / 2 + 4

No exponents so we go on.

no multiplication so we go on

Now division...

14 / 2 = 7 because 7 x 2 = 14

Now we have...

6 + 7 + 4

now we do addition, addition is commutative so you can add it in any order you want

6 + 7 = 13, 13 + 4 = 17

therefore, the answer is 17

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

If you imagine the dots continued in a connected line, (imagining where the data points will likely go), the line's slope informs you if it is a negative (going down/negative slope) linear association or if it's a positive (going up/positive slope) linear association.

For A, it has a positive slope [as it increases].

For B, it also has a positive slope

For C, there is no correlation, the dots are not showing any trends

For D, there is a negative slope.

This means that the scatter plot D shows a negative linear association.

Option (D) shows a negative linear association between the variables is the correct answer.

A scatter plot is a type of data visualization that shows the relationship between different variables. Scatter plots are used to plot data points on a horizontal and a vertical axis in an attempt to show how much one variable is affected by another.

For the given situation,

The graph shows the data points on a horizontal and a vertical axis.

A scatter plot with an increasing value of one variable and a decreasing value for another variable can be said to have a negative correlation.

Among graphs, in option (D) when one variable tends to increase in the x-axis, the other variable decreases in the y-axis.

Hence we can conclude that option (D) shows a negative linear association between the variables is the correct answer.

Answer: B, C, D

Step-by-step explanation:

A function assigns the values. The value of (f+g)(x) is (5x³ - 4x² - 6x - 7).

A function assigns the value of each element of one set to the other specific element of another set.

Given F(x)=2x²+6x-4 and G(x)=5x³-6x²-3, therefore, the value of (f+g)(x) is,

(f+g)(x) = f(x) + g(x)

           = 2x²+6x-4 + 5x³-6x²-3

           = 5x³ - 6x² + 2x² - 6x - 4 - 3

           = 5x³ - 4x² - 6x - 7

Hence, the value of (f+g)(x) is (5x³ - 4x² - 6x - 7).

Answer:(-6,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

The values of x, y, and z are 1, 2, and 3 respectively after using the substitution method.

It is defined as the relation between two variables, if we plot the graph of the linear equation we will get a straight line.

If in the linear equation, one variable is present, then the equation is known as the linear equation in one variable.

We have a linear equation in three variable:

2x + 3y - z = 5 ...(1)

4x - y - z = -1 ...(2)

x + 4y + z = 12 ...(3)

[tex]\rm \mathrm{Substitute\:}x=\dfrac{5-3y+z}{2}[/tex]   (from the equation 1 and 2)

After solving:

[tex]\rm \begin{bmatrix}-7y+z+10=-1\\ \dfrac{5y+3z+5}{2}=12\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

From the above, two equations:
y =2

z =3

Plug the above values in equation 1

x = 1

Thus, the values of x, y, and z are 1, 2, and 3 respectively after using the substitution method.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(2x + 4x + 6x) * 2  = 360*

2x + 4x + 6x = 180°

12x = 180°

x = 180 : 12

x = 15

(2x + x) * 2 = 360

2x + x = 180

3x = 180

x = 180 : 3

x = 60°

Answer:

x = 25

Now divide both sides by [tex]\frac{4}{5}[/tex]. You can't divide by a fraction, instead you multiply by flipping the fraction. So now you're multiplying both sides by [tex]\frac{5}{4}[/tex].

20 times 5 = 100. Next you divide [tex]\frac{100}{4}[/tex]. This is equal to 25. You have completed the equation and now have the answer:
