You bought a package of paper for $3 and some pencils for $2 each at the school store. You paid $15 for everything that you bought. How many pencils did you buy?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

6  pencils

Step-by-step explanation:

Total cost = paper * cost of a package + pencils * cost of a pencils

We bought 1 pack of paper at 3 dollars and p pencils at 2 dollars

15  = 1*3 + p*2

15 = 3+2p

Subtract 3 from each side

15-3 = 3+2p-3

12 = 2p

Divide by 2

12/2 = 2p/2

6 = p

What is the slope of a line that is perpendicular to the line y = -1/2x + 5

Answers

To find the slope of a line perpendicular to another line, we simply need to find the inverse negative of the slope of the first one. This makes sense if you visualize it on a graph or in your head.

The slope of the line given is -1/2.

To find the inverse negative we first inverse the number, then take then negatuve of that (or opposite order).

The inverse of -1/2 is, -2 (switch the numerator and denominator or do to the power of -1, ^-1).

The negative of -2 is, 2.

Therefore the slope of the line perpendicular to y = -1/2x + 5 is 2.

Two students, Galen and Mai, worked on a project.
Galen worked for 3 2/3 hours.
Mai worked for 2 4/5 hours.
What was the total time spent on the project?
How much more time did Galen spend on the project than Mai?

Answers

Answer:

Mia worked 4/5 of an hour less than Galen.

or

Galen spent 4/5 of an hour more working on the project.

Step-by-step explanation:

First we have to find the LCM (Lowest Common Multiple) of 5 and 3 -

3: 3, 6, 9, 15, 18, 21, 24, 27, 30

5: 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50

We can see here, that the lowest common multiple is 15.

Now we need to convert the 2/3 and 4/5 into fractions that are equivalent to something fraction that has the denominator of 15.

2/3x5= 10/15

4/5x3= 12/15

So, now, the hours of work time of both Galen and Mia are having the same denominator, now, we can subtract.

3 10/15 - 2 12/15 = 12/15

Now, we understand that 12/15 was the amount of time Galen worked more than Mai. But, still, there is still more to do.

Suspense......

SIMPLIFY!!!

12/15 both come in 3's multiplication table.

12/15 divided by 3 = 4/5

Now, our final answer simplified is 4/5.

Answer:

6 7/12 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation: The total miles she rides is the miles she rides to school + the miles she rides back

Step 1: Convert both mixed numbers into fractions.

2 3/4 = 11/4

3 5/6 = 23/6

Step 2: Find GCF by multiplying both fractions by opposing denominators

11/4 = 66/24    (11 * 6 = 66, 4 * 6 = 24)

23/6 = 92/24    (23 * 4 = 92, 6*4=24)

Step 3: Add both fractions

92/24 + 66/24 = 158/24

Step 4: Simplify

158/24= 79/12 = 6 7/12 miles

When writing an equation of a line, keep in mind that you ALWAYS need two pieces of information when you go to write an equation:
1. ANY point on the line
2. Slope (m)
3. Y-intercept (b)

Once you have these two pieces of information, you plug the x and y values from your point and the slope (m) value into the slope-intercept form, y = mx + b.


Start by solving for the slope of each line. We need two ordered pairs (x, y) from each line to solve for the slope:

Offer A:
(0, 400) and (80, 700)

Let (x1, y1) = (0, 400)
(x2, y2) = (80,700)

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (700 – 400)/(80 – 0) = 300/80 = 15/4

Therefore, the slope (m) for Offer A = 15/4

Next, we need the y-intercept. The y-intercept is the y-coordinate of the point where the graph of the linear equation crosses the y-axis. The y-intercept is also the value of y when x = 0. One of the points we used for solving the slope for Offer A reflects the description for the y-intercept, which is point (0, 400). The y-coordinate is 400–this is the y-intercept of the line.

Now, we can establish the linear equation for Offer A: y = 15/4x + 400

Do the same steps for the other offer:

Offer B:
(0, 500)) and (100,900)
Let (x1, y1) = (0, 500)
(x2, y2) = (100,900)

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (900 - 500)/(100 – 0) = 400/100 = 4

Therefore, the slope for Offer B is 4.

Next, we need the y-intercept. For Offer B, the line crosses at point (0, 500). The y-coordinate, 500 is the y-intercept (b) of the line.

The linear equation for Offer B is:
y = 4x + 500



**NOTE: please double-check the coordinates that I used for solving the slopes of each line before using my inputs. I had a slight difficulty going through the coordinates of your graph because it’s a bit blurry (using my phone to write this post).

A bird weighs 10 N and is standing 3 m up whats its GPE

Answers

Answer:

30 J

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : -

Height ( h ) = 3m

Weight ( W ) = 10 N

To find : GPE = ?

Note : -

GPE is Gravitational Potential Energy.

It is expressed in Joules ( J ).

Formula : -

W = mg

mg = 10 N

Formula : -

GPE = mgh

GPE = 10 x 3

GPE = 30 J

Therefore,

A bird weighs 10 N and is standing 3 m, it's

GPE is 30 J.

Answer:

The answer is GPE = 300 Nm (Newton meters)

Step-by-step explanation:

The bird's mass weighs to 10 Newtons.

Presuming this took place on Earth, the gravitational force is 10 Newtons.

The bird is standing 3 meters above the ground.

Using the GPE formula (GPE = mgw,) the answer should be 300 Newton metres.

Answers

Answer:

1. d  2. a  3. d  4. a  5. a

Step-by-step explanation:

For 1, d is negative because, if there an even number of negatives, the answer will be positive. a. would have been correct, but you multiply that one by 0. 0 is not negative, so the answer has to be d.

2. is -21. You can multiply 3 times seven then make it negative, or simply add -7 together 3 times.

3. is d because the two negatives cancel each other out. Even numbers of negatives cancel each other out. therefore, 17 times 6 is 102.

4. -120 is the answer because there are 3 negatives. That is an odd number, so we know our answer is negative. -5 times -3 is 15, and 15 times -8 is -120.

5. is a because -1 times 4 is -4, then -4 times -9 is 36. 36 times -3 is then -108.

To find b, start by subtracting 20 from both sides:

-20 -20

30 = -1/3b

Now isolate b by dividing both sides by -1/3:

30/(-1/3) = (-1/3b)/(-1/3)

-90 = b

Answers

Answer:

y = - 2|x - (-2)| + 1  

Step-by-step explanation:

The general form of an absolute value function is y = a|x – h| + k, where a ≠ 0.

The value of a determines whether the graph opens up or down.  If a is negative, the graph opens down. This holds true, as the value of a = -2

The given graph for the absolute function has a vertex (h, k) of (-2, 1). This is the maximum point of the graph.  

Therefore, the missing values on the given equation is the value of the vertex.  It has to be written as  y = - 2|x - (-2)| + 1 because the equation on your given problem is formatted according to the general form of the absolute value function,  y = a|x – h| + k.

Answers

Fractions are integers that have both a numerator and a denominator. They are represented as; [tex]\frac{x}{y}[/tex]

Where:

x = Numerator

y = Denominator.

It will take them both [tex]\frac{7}{12}[/tex] hours or 0.583 hours to finish the job together.

To solve the above question, we would be applying the operations of the addition of fractions.

From the question,

Leni can decorate the room in 4 hours. This means in 1 hour, Leni can paint 1/4 of the room.

Lucy, her sister can decorate the room in 3 hours. This means in 1 hour, lucy can decorate 1/3 of the room.

Let us represent the number of hours it will take them both to decorate the room working together as "T"

Hence,

1/T = 1/4 + 1/3

Lowest Common Denominator for (3, 4 ) = 12

Hence,

1/T = 3 + 4 / 12

1/T = 7/12

Find the reciprocal of both sides

T = 7/12 hours or can be expressed in decimals as 0.583 hours.

Therefore, it will take them both [tex]\frac{7}{12}[/tex] hours or 0.583 hours to finish the job together.
