A guppy was swimming 8 feet below the surface of the river. It swam down 6 more feet
to escape a large, hungry fish. What is the position of the guppy now relative to the
surface?
To solve the problem, Jenna subtracted 8 - 6 and came up with an answer of 2 feet. Is Jenna
correct? Why or why not?
Yes, Jenna is correct.
No. The answer should have been -2 feet, not 2 feet, because the guppy is
below the surface.
No. Jenna should have subtracted -8 - 6 because the guppy started 8 feet
below the surface and swam down 6 more feet.

Answer:

a = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that don't contain a variable.

Answer  or  i can giv u the ansur if you want it

Step-by-step explanation:

When two variables are proportionate, they increase and decrease at the same ratio.

36 / 40 = 0.9

0.9 * 140 = 126

When y = 140, x = 126.

2. 150 / 30 = 5

5 * 48 = 240lbs

A person who weighs 48 lbs on the moon weighs 240lbs on Earth.

3. 110 / 66 = 0.6

0.6 * 80 = 48

y = 48 when x = 80

Answer:

15:20:8

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to find a common factor between 4 and 5 because there are 3 men to 4 women and 5 women for 2 children, those numbers don't directly correlate. The easiest waay would be to multiply 4 and 5.

4 x 5 = 20

So we can correct the first ratio.

3 X 5 = 15

So the ratio of men to women is 15:20.

Now we find the ratio of women to children.

4 x 5 = 20

4 x 2 = 8

The ratio of women to children is 20:8.

Now that we have the same number in each ratio for women, we can combine them.

The ratio of men to women to children is:

15:20:8

Answer:

Length of the garden = 13 ft

Width of the garden = 9 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of my new garden = l ft

It's given in the question,

width of the garden = 9 ft

Formula to calculate the perimeter of a rectangle is,

P = 2(L + W)

Where L = length of the garden

W = width of the garden

P = perimeter of the garden

Length of the fence = 44 ft

By substituting values in the formula,

44 = 2(l + 9)

22 = l + 9

l = 22 - 9

l = 13 ft

Therefore, length of my new garden = 13 ft

Width of the garden = 9 ft

Answer:

AB=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

AB=4

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Since you are finding the intersection points of two parabolas:

a. y=-x²+9

b. y=2x²-3

2. You have to set them equal to each other:

2x²-3= - x²+9

2x²+x=9+3

3x²=12

x²=4

This is the crucial part; the absolute value of x is equal to plus minus the square root of 4, since either -2 squared with parentheses or 2 squared is equal to 4.

√x²=±√4

x=±2

or

x=2; x=-2

3. Then you substitute them into each equation. For this step, any sign 2 will work.

a. y=-(2)²+9

y=-4+9

y=5

b. y=2(2)²-3

y=8-3

y=5

4. So our coordinates will be (2,5) and (-2,5). These are the points of intersection.

5. Now we use the distance formula:

The subscripts didn't work for this but I mean the square root of x 2 - x 1 in parentheses plus y 2 -y 1.

=

√16=

4

The absolute value rule that I mentioned above doesn't work for this because its a distance and you can't have a negative distance.

So AB=4

The distance between two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) is given by:

[tex]D = \sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2}[/tex]

With this, we will found that the distance between A and B is: 4 units.

The first thing we need to do is find A and B.

We know that the points are the intersection between the two parabolas.

y = -x^2 + 9

y = 2*x^2 - 3

The intersection is given by the zeros of the difference:

(2*x^2 - 3) - (-x^2 + 9) = 0

3*x^2 -12 = 0

3*x^2 = 12

x^2 = 12/3 = 4

x = √4 = ±2

To find the points, we need to evaluate one of the parabolas in these two x-values.

Let's use the first one:

y = -(2)^2 + 9 = 5

So we have the point (2, 5)

For the other point:

y = -(-2)^2 + 9 = 5

So we have the point (-2, 5)

Then we can define:

A =  (2, 5)

B = (-2, 5)

Using the distance equation we get:

[tex]D = \sqrt{(2 - (-2))^2 + (5 - 5)^2} = 4[/tex]

The distance between A and B is 4.

Answer:

X = 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

since you want to solve for x, you want to get it by itself

to start, you want to try to get (x+2) by itself, and you can do this by multiplying both sides by the reciprocal of 3/4

[tex](\frac{4}{3}) \frac{3}{4}(x+2) = 6 (\frac{4}{3})[/tex]

since a number multiplied by its reciprocal is equal to 1, this leaves you with

[tex](x+2) = \frac{24}{3}[/tex]

[tex](x+2) = 8[/tex]

now, you can subtract 2 from both sides in order to get x by itself

[tex](x+2)-2 = 8-2[/tex]

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

and then you have your answer

x = 6

[tex]f(g(x))=\sqrt{8x-4}[/tex]                           [factor]

[tex]f(g(x))=\sqrt{4(2x-1)}[/tex]                      [square root of 4]

[tex]f(g(x))=2\sqrt{2x-1}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of Girls in a school is 180.

Find the number of girls​.

There are girls in a school = 3/7

Number of boys in a school = 240

Assume that there are x students in a school.

Number of Girls = 3/7 of All Students.

= 3/7 of x

= 3x/7

We know that,

Total Students = Number of Boys + Number of Girls.

240 + 3x/7 = x

240 = x - 3x/7

240 = (7x - 3x) /7   (Taking L.C.M.)

240 × 7 = 4x

x = 60 × 7

x = 420

Total number of Students in a school is 420.

Thus, Number of Girls = 3/7 × x

= 3/7 × 420

= 180

So,  the number of Girls in a school is 180.
