Ally and Beth are at the grocery store. Ally buys a container of milk for $4 and 4.75 pounds of apples. Beth buys a box of cereal for $3 and 5.55 pounds of apples.
Solve for ‘a’ to determine how much 1 pound of apples costs if both shoppers spent the same amount.
4 + 4.75a = 3 + 5.55a
Answers
4 - 3 = (5.55 - 4.75)a
1 = 0.8a
a = $1.25 [A.]
Rearrange the term’s 4.75a-5.55a =3-4
Combine like terms-8a=3-4
Divide both side of the equation by the coefficients of variables a=-1/-0.8
Calculate a=5/4
Correct answer a=5/4

Step-by-step explanation:
The angles of a right triangle will always add up to 180 degrees. The angles specified add up to 270 degrees.
There will also always be a 90 degree angle which makes up the right angle.
Since there will always be a 90 degree angle, the other angles will have to add up to 90.

How can the area of this triangle be determined by forming a rectangle?
Select from the drop-down menus to correctly complete the statements.
Copy and rotate the triangle and place it next to the existing triangle to form a rectangle. The length of the rectangle is
Choose... 2, 4, 11 ,13
units. The width of the rectangle is
Choose... 2,4,11,13
units. The area of the rectangle is
Choose... 13 26 30 169
square units.
The area of the triangle is half the area of the rectangle, so the area of the triangle is

Btw I know the answers but I need proof
A: ehehe I dont kknow for this one :')
B: 64 inches 2
Answers
Answer:
A = picture attached
B = 51 in²
Step-by-step explanation:
The picture attached is the answer for part A. You use the dimensions you already know from the first picture to fill in the net of the slice of pie.
Area of the triangle = 1/2 (base × height)
A = 1/2 (4 × 6) = 1/2 (24) = 12
The area of the triangle is 12. The top is a triangle, but the bottom is also a triangle with the same area. Therefore, the area of the two triangles combined is 24 in². Next, we have to find the area of the rectangle at the sides of the pie.
Area of rectangle = length × width
A = 5 × 2.5 = 12.5
Since there are two rectangles with the same area on both sides of the pie, we can double it and get 25 in². We still have one rectangle left, the one at the back of the pie.
A = 6 × 2.5 = 15
Add the areas altogether to get the answer.
24 + 12.5 + 15 = 51.5 in²
I hope this helps. Sorry if Part B's answer is wrong.
For each function below, find its domain and then determine if the function increasing, decreasing, or constant on each piece of the domain. Sometimes the domain is just one interval, but the function still changes its behavior at some points. s(t)=[tex]\frac{-5}{|t|}[/tex]
The interval on which the function is decreasing is : ( , )
The interval on which the function is increasing is : ( , )
The interval on which the function is constant is : ( , )
Leave unused fields blank.
Answers
Answer and explanation:
First, the domain is all real numbers except 0, since x = 0 is the asymptote.
D: x ∊ R, x ≠ 0
or
D: (-∞, 0) ∪ (0, ∞)
The range is everything below y = 0.
R: y < 0
or
R: (0, -∞)
Next, this function is never constant so there are only intervals of increasing and decreasing. The intervals meet at x = 0.
inc: x > 0
dec: x < 9
or
inc: (0, ∞)
dec: (0, -∞)

An artist enlarged a drawing she made. The original is 3 cm wide and 5 cm tall. The artist set the copier zoom button to 120%. What is the longer dimension of the new drawing?
Pls help
Answers
Answer:
the answer is 6 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Here’s one way you can solve this problem.
A zoom setting of one hundred twenty percent means that the dimensions of the new copy will be one hundred twenty percent of the dimensions of the original drawing.
First, write the scale that expresses the ratio of the original percent to the copy percent, one hundred to one hundred twenty.
Then, let h represent the height of the copy and write the ratio of copy to original as five centimeters to h centimeters.
Next, write a proportion that equates the two ratios. One hundred to one hundred twenty equals five to h.
Then, cross multiply the terms of the proportion. One hundred twenty times five equals one hundred h.
Next, multiply to get six hundred equals one hundred h.
Finally, divide both sides by one hundred to find h. h equals six.
So, the longer dimension of the new drawing is six centimeters, which is one hundred twenty percent of five centimeters.
