Answer:

correct

Step-by-step explanation:

dividing both quantities in a ratio by the same non zero number does indeed find an equivalent ratio.

for example

60 : 36 ( divide both parts by 6 )

= 10 : 6 ← equivalent ratio ( divide both parts by 2 )

= 5 : 3 ← equivalent ratio in simplest form

in fact dividing the original by the HCF of the 2 quantities gives the ratio in simplest form immediately , that is

60 : 36 ( divide both parts by 12 )

= 5 : 3

Consider the exponential function f(x) = 2(3x) and its graph.

AveGali [126]

Answer:

The initial value of the function is 2

The base of the function is 3

The function shows exponential growth

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 2(3^x)

Exponential functions are those with the following equation:

y = a*b^x

where a ≠ 0, b > 0 and b ≠ 1 and x is a real number.

a is the y-intercept and b is the base.

The initial value of the function is the same as the y-intercept

If a is positive, the function growth. If a is negative, the function decay

Ted and Jude are each saving money each month. After x months, the amount of money, in dollars, that Ted has saved is represente

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

True Statements are -

B. In 3 months, Ted will have saved the same amount that Jude saved in 2 months.

D. The total amount of money Jude has saved is always $20 more than the total amount Ted has saved.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given - Ted and Jude are each saving money each month. After x months, the amount of money, in dollars, that Ted has saved is represented by the

equation T = 40x, and the amount of money that Jude has saved is represented by the equation J = 60x.

To find - Choose all of the statements that are true.

A. Each month, Jude saves two-thirds as much money as Ted saves.

B. In 3 months, Ted will have saved the same amount that Jude saved in 2 months.

C. The amount of money Jude saves each month is $20 more than the amount Ted saves each month.

D. The total amount of money Jude has saved is always $20 more than the total amount Ted has saved.

Proof -

Given that,

After x months,

Ted saved the amount of money, T(x) = 40x

Jude saved the amount of money, J(x) = 60x

Now,

In 1 month,

Ted saved money, T(1) = 40(1) = 40

Jude saved money, J(1) = 60(1) = 60

So,

In 1st month, Jude saved money 20 more than Ted saved.

Now,

In 2 month,

Ted saved money, T(2) = 40(2) = 80

Jude saved money, J(2) = 60(2) = 120

So,

In 2nd month, Jude saved money 40 more than Ted saved.

Now,

In 3 month,

Ted saved money, T(3) = 40(3) = 120

Jude saved money, J(3) = 60(3) = 180

So,

In 3rd month, Jude saved money 60 more than Ted saved.

So,

Option C is incorrect

Because

In 1st month, Jude saves is $20 more than the amount Ted saves

In 2nd month, Jude saves is $40 more than the amount Ted saves

Now,

In 1st month,

Ted saves = 40

and

$\frac{2}{3}(40)$ = 26.67

So, Jude will save = 40 + 26.67 = 66.67

But Jude saves 60

So,

Option A is incorrect.

i.e. A. Each month, Jude saves two-thirds as much money as Ted saves.

Now,

We can see that,

In 3 months, Ted will have saved the money = 120

In 2 months, Jude will have saved the money = 120

So,

Option B is correct.

i.e. B. In 3 months, Ted will have saved the same amount that Jude saved in 2 months.

Also,

We can see that

In 1st month, Jude saved money 20 more than Ted saved.

In 2nd month, Jude saved money 40 more than Ted saved.

In 3rd month, Jude saved money 60 more than Ted saved.

So,

Option D is correct.

i.e. D. The total amount of money Jude has saved is always $20 more than the total amount Ted has saved.

∴ we get

True Statements are -

B. In 3 months, Ted will have saved the same amount that Jude saved in 2 months.

D. The total amount of money Jude has saved is always $20 more than the total amount Ted has saved.

Find the sum.

Strike441 [17]

You are gonna use the distributive property.

4(2.5g - 4) + 3(1.2g - 2)

So you are going to multiply 4 with everything inside the first set of parenthesis and your gonna multiply 3 with everything insides the second set of parenthesis.

4 x 2.5g - 4 x 4 + 3 x 1.2g - 3 x 2

10g - 16 + 3.6g - 6

You wanna combine like terms:

10 - 3.6g + 16 - 6

6.4g + 10

You answer is 6.4g + 10.

Hope this Helps!!
