7/20 barrels of corn are the buffalo fed each day.

How to solve word problems?

It's actually fairly easy to solve word problems using a tried-and-true step-by-step approach.

  • Aloud to yourself, read the issue.
  • Make a Drawing.
  • Ask yourself, "What am I looking for?"
  • List the items that have been provided.
  • Locate the key phrases.
  • Solve.
  • Verify your work.

Here are some actions to take:

  1. Recognize the issue, including all the terminology used to describe it. Recognize what you need to look for, Recognize the issue's context.
  2. Convert the issue into an equation. Give the unknown a variable (or variables) to symbolize, Indicate exactly what the variable stands for.
  3. Put the strategy into action and find a solution.

Given:

Elephants at the Norfolk zoo are fed = 1/2

Buffalo are fed 7/10 as much corn as the elephants = 7/10 * Elephants fed

= 7/10 * 1/2

= 7/20

Hence, 7/20 barrels of corn are the buffalo fed each day.

The functions f(x) and g(x) are described below:
sesenic [268]

Suppose that the <u>function</u> f(x) is the <u>parrent</u> function and the<u> graph</u> of the function g(x)=f(x)-a can be obtained from the graph of the parrent function f(x) by <u>shifting down</u> a units.

Rewrite the expression for the function g(x) in the following way:

g(x)=32x-9=32x+8-8-9=32x+8-17=f(x)-17.

This shows that the shift down is made by 17 units.

Answer: 17 units

You want to distribute 7 candies to 4 kids. If every kid must receive at least one candy, in how many ways can you do this?
puteri [66]

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

lets begin to set up this question. i personally find questions like these easiest when i begin to set up ideas to help my brain process it better, for example:

person a

person b

person c

person d

we know that each (person) must receive at least 1 candy. we also know that we have 7 candies. therefore if we want do draw this out :

person a- 1

person b- 1

person c- 1

person d -1

notice that we now have given away 4 of the 7 candies. now we have 3 candies left. we can simply:

person a- 2

person b-2

person c-2

person d- 1

but, keep in mind that there are still many more ways that we can distribute the candies to other kids. the question we are asked is how may ways can we do this. since i have already illustrated the question, you can either learn how to put this into an equation, or experiment how many variations there are. the answer, either way is 15.

The sides of triangle can be represented by x+3, 2x+4 and 3x-1. what would be the perimeter of it were scaled down by half
svlad2 [7]

The perimeter will also be scaled down by half if the original triangle if it were scaled down by half.

<h3>What is the perimeter of a triangle?</h3>

The total length of a triangle's boundary is referred to as its perimeter. It is the total of the triangle's three sides. A triangle's perimeter will be equal to a+b+c if its three sides are a, b, and c.

The sides of the original triangle are:

x+3, 2x+4, 3x-1

The perimeter of the triangle will be

x+3+2x+4+3x-1\\=6x+6

If it were scaled down by half then new sides will be

\frac{x+3}{2} , \frac{2x+4}{2} , \frac{x-1}{2}

So, the perimeter of the new triangle will be

\frac{x+3}{2} + \frac{2x+4}{2} + \frac{3x-1}{2}\\=\frac{x+3+2x+4+3x-1}{2} \\=\frac{6x+6}{2}\\ =3x+3

This is half of the original triangle's perimeter. Therefore, the perimeter of the new triangle is half of the perimeter of the original triangle.
