In Sam’s pet corner, there are puppies and parrots, the total of 15 heads and 50 feet. How many parrots and how many puppies?

1 answer:

3 0

Puppies = 4 feet
Parrots = 2 feet

15 heads = 15 animals

Assumed all Parrots,
15 x 2 = 30 feet

50 - 30 = 20
There are 20 extra feet which must belong to puppies' extra 2 feet each
20 ÷ 2 = 10

There are 10 puppies
15 - 10 = 5
There are 5 parrots

Check:
10 x 4 + 5 x 2 = 50 feet (Correct)

The table of values represents an exponential function f(x).

Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

-3.98 (nearest hundredth)

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rate of change of function f(x) over the interval a ≤ x ≤ b is given by:

$\dfrac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}$

Given interval: -2 ≤ x ≤ 2

$\implies a = -2$

$\implies b = 2$

$\implies f(a) = f(-2)=16$

$\implies f(b) =f(2)= \dfrac{1}{16}$

Substituting the values into the equation:

$\begin{aligned}\implies \textsf{rate of change} & =\dfrac{\frac{1}{16}-16}{2-(-2)}\\\\ & = \dfrac{-\frac{255}{16}}{4}\\\\ & = -\dfrac{255}{64}\\\\ & = -3.98\: \sf (nearest\:hundredth)\end{aligned}$

In health class, students record the weights of the sandwiches they have for lunch. The weights are shown in the line plot below

Dvinal [7]

To find the average weight, you need to add all of the numbers and then divide them
I'll start off by doing this:
1/8+1/8 = 2/8
1/4+1/4+1/4+1/4 = 1
3/8+3/8 = 6/8
1/2+1/2 = 1
then I'll add them together:
2/8+6/8 = 1
1 + 1 + 1 =3
now we need to divide the amount of numbers. the amount of sandwiches weighted (10) will have to be divided
therefore, we get 3/10. because this can't be simplified, this will be your final answer.

Which expression is equivalent to (7 + 2i)(-3 - 4i)?

malfutka [58]

B -13 -34i

(7 + 2i)(-3 - 4i)
Take the 7 then times it buy the second bracket 7x(-3-4i) then take 2i from the first bracket and times it with the second bracket 2ix (-3-4i)

Then keep simplifying
