Answer:

Answer B) (2 times )

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start with the person that shook hands more (Dora), so we already know how four of this connections took place See attached image.

step 1:

D is connected to A, B, C, and E

Step 2:

Now proceed with the connections for the second greatest (C who shook hands with 3 people). Notice that C is already connected with D, and can connect with B and with E, but NOT with A (since this person shook hands only once - with D. So C is connected to B, D, and E completing the three handshakes.

step 3: Now just corroborate that B is already connected to two people (C and D).  So just count the number of connections that E is left with: 2 handshakes.

Answer:

( E ) 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:-

- There can be two ways in solving this question. Either we lay-out a map of every person ( Alan, Bella, Claire, Dora, and Erik ) shaking hands with each other.

- We will use an intuitive way of tackling this problem.

- We have a total of 5 people who greeted each other at the party.

- Each of the 5 people shook hands exactly " once "! We can give this a technical term of " shaking hands - without replacement ".

- We will define our event as shaking hands. It takes 2 people to shake hands.

- We will try to determine the total number of unique "combinations" that would result in each person shaking hands exactly one time.

- We have a total of 5 people and we will make unique combinations of 2 people shaking hands. This can be written as:

                            5C2 = 10 possible ways.

- So there are a total of 10 possible ways for 5 people to greet each other exactly once at the party.

- We are already given the data for how many handshakes were made by each person as follows:

                      Name                 Number of handshakes

                       Alan                                   1

                       Bella                                  2

                       Claire                                 3

                       Dora                                   4

               =======================================

                      Total                                  10

               =======================================

- So from the data given. 10 unique hand-shakes were already done by the time it was " Eriks " turn to go and greet someone. This also means that Erik has already met all 4 people in that party. So he doesn't have to approach anyone to shake hands and know someone. He is already been introduced to rest of 4 people in the group.

Answer: Erik does not need to shake hands with anyone! He is known and greeted rest of the 4 people on the group.

<h3>Line of best fit </h3>

From the question, we are to determine if the line can be used to make reasonable predictions of the number of cheese pizzas that would be sold in the upcoming weeks

In the graph, we have a scatterplot.

The line drawn is the <u>line of best fit</u>

Hence,

Yes, the line can be used to make reasonable predictions of the number of cheese pizzas that would be sold in the upcoming weeks. This is because the line is the line of best fit.

Please help me IDk this at all!!!!

It would help if you find common denominator... 12
so 1/3 times 4 both the numerator and denominator
4/12

and 3/4 times by 3 both the numerator and denominator
9/12

the recipe calls for 4/12 cup of oil and you have 9/12

two batches would be 8/12 cups of oil, you have 9/12 that is just enough for the recipe for two batches...

now to simplify it again, 1/3 + 1/3 = 2/3 and 2/3 is less than 3/4 
the answer would be the upper right

vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

<h2>x = 3 and x = 4 → (3, 0) and (4, 0)</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

\text{x-intercept is for y = 0}.\\\\\text{We have the function:}\ y=x^2-7x+12.\\\\\text{Put y = 0 and calculate the value(s) of x.}\\\\x^2-7x+12=0\\\\x^2-3x-4x+12=0\\\\x(x-3)-4(x-3)=0\\\\(x-3)(x-4)=0\iff x-3=0\ \vee\ x-4=0\\\\x-3=0\qquad\text{add 3 to both sides}\\\boxed{x=3}\\\\x-4=0\qquad\text{add 4 to both sides}\\\boxed{x=4}

If DF = 170, find the value of x. Then find DE and EF.<br> DE=3x + 20<br> EF=2x + 40
Julli [10]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  DE = 86

  EF = 84

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume that point E lies on segment DF, so that ...

  DE + EF = DF

  (3x +20) +(2x +40) = 170

  5x = 110 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . collect terms, subtract 60

  x = 22 . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 5

  DE = 3×22 +20 = 66 +20 = 86

  EF = 2×22 +40 = 44 +40 = 84
