Write two different expressions that
represent the quantity x decreased
by 30%.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x - 30 = 14 - 3x

    4x = 44

      x = 11

Let's call the unknown number x

Now let's decrease it by 30, that is x-30

Now let's write out "14 decreased by three times the number", that is 14 - 3x

The problem says these are the same, that is x - 30 = 14 - 3x

We now want to isolate, or solve for, x

Move the x to one side of the equation by adding 3x to both sides

3x + x -30 = 14 - 3x + 3x

4x -30 = 14

Now move the 30 to the right hand side by adding 30 to both sides

4x - 30 + 30 = 14 + 30

4x = 44

Now all we have to do to get x is divide both sides by 4

4x/4 = 44/4

x = 11

A. m^2+7m+10=0
B. m^2-7m+10=0
C. m^2+7m+31=0
D. m^2-7m+31=0

Answers

Answer:

  A.  m^2+7m+10=0

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a problem in pattern matching, and in substituting a variable for a pattern.

  (x^2+3)^2 +7x^2 +21 = -10 . . . . . . given

  (x^2 +3)^2 +7(x^2 +3) = -10 . . . . . factor the last two terms

  m^2 +7m = -10 . . . . . . . . . . . . subsitute m for x^2 +3

  m^2 +7m +10 = 0 . . . . . . . . add 10 to both sides; matches A

Ben runs 3/4 mile each day.How many Miles Does ben run in 12 days

Answers

Answer:

9 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

0.75x12=9

or

75x120=90

90/10=9

If Ben runs 3/4 mile each day than he runs 9 miles in 12 days.

To find out how many miles Ben runs in 12 days

we need to multiply the distance he runs each day (3/4 mile) by the number of days (12).

First, let's convert 3/4 mile to a decimal:

3/4 mile = 0.75 mile

Now, we can calculate the total distance Ben runs in 12 days:

0.75 mile × 12 days

= 9 miles

Therefore, Ben runs 9 miles in 12 days.

K(-3, 0), I(0, 2), and T(3, 0) are three vertices of a kite. Which point could be the fourth vertex?

Answers

The coordinates of the fourth vertex of the kite with vertices (-3, 0), (0, 2) and (3, 0) are represented by the point E(x,y) = (0, -2).

How to determine the fourth vertex of a kite

A rhomboid is a quadrilateral with two pairs of sides of equal length and two pairs of equal angles. A kite is a rhomboid whose vertices observe the following properties: [tex]P_{1} (x, y) = (-x, 0)[/tex]. [tex]P_{2} (x,y) = (0, y)[/tex], [tex]P_{3}(x,y) = (x, 0)[/tex], [tex]P_{4}(x,y) = (0, -y)[/tex].

In this question we must determine the coordinates of the fourth vertices according to the kite characteristics. After a quick comparison in the known points, the coordinates of the fourth vertex are E(x,y) = (0, -2).

The coordinates of the fourth vertex of the kite with vertices (-3, 0), (0, 2) and (3, 0) are represented by the point E(x,y) = (0, -2). [tex]\blacksquare[/tex]

2. You bought 8 bags of gummy bears and they cost $2.79 each. How much did
the gummy bears cost after you included the 8% sales tax?
Your answer

Answers

it would be $25.52, i’m pretty sure this is right, i’m sorry if it isn’t!!

Answer:

$24.11

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the total price of the gummy bears by multiplying the 2.79 each bag by the 8 bags. 2.79×8=22.32.Convert the percentage into a decimal. Move the decimal place that is after the 8% (same as 8.0% if you need to visualize the location of the decimal) to 2 places to the left. This means your decimal is 0.08.Multiply the decimal by the total untaxed cost from the first step. This will give you the tax. 22.32×0.08=1.7856, which rounds to currency of 1.79. Add the tax and the untaxed total together to get the grand total. 1.79+22.32=24.11Your answer is $24.11
