A donkey weighs 570 pounds and an elephant weighs 5 tons. How much more does the elephant weigh?

2 answers:

7 0

A ton is equivalent to 1000 pounds so:
the elephant weighs 5000 pounds
5000-570= 4430
The elephants weighs 4430 pounds more.

The correct answer is:

5 tons = 10,000 lb

10,000 lb − 570 lb = 9,430 lb = 4 tons and 1,430 lb

This answer is if you want it in tons and pounds.

The area of the parallelogram shown is (35x2 + 46x +15) square meters. If its base is (5x + 3) meters, find

attashe74 [19]

Answer:

(7x + 5)m

Step-by-step explanation:

area = base * height = (35x2 + 46x +15) m²

base = (5x + 3)

Using algebraic division, find the height. SEE ATTACHMENT

What is the volume of a rectangular prism when the measures are multiplied by 4?

koban [17]

Answer: A. 3072 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for determining the volume of a rectangular prism is expressed as

Volume = length × width × height

Looking at the diagram,

Length = 6 cm

Width = 4 cm

Height = 2 cm

When the measures are multiplied by 4, then

Length = 6 × 4 = 24 cm

Width = 4 × 4 = 16 cm

Height = 2 × 4 = 8 cm

Therefore,

Volume = 24 × 16 × 8 = 3072 cm³

Write an equation in slope-intercept form from the points (0, 3) and (-4,-1)

Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

y = x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form is represented by the formula $y = mx + b$ . We can write an equation in point-slope form first, then convert it to that form.

1) First, find the slope of the line. Use the slope formula $m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$ and substitute the x and y values of the given points into it. Then, simplify to find the slope, or $m$ :

$m = \frac{(-1)-(3)}{(-4)-(0)} \\m = \frac{-1-3}{-4-0} \\m = \frac{-4}{-4} \\m = 1$

Thus, the slope of the line must be 1.

2) Now, since we know a point the line intersects and its slope, use the point-slope formula $y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$ and substitute values for $m$ , $x_1$ , and $y_1$ . From there, we can convert the equation into slope-intercept form.

Since $m$ represents the slope, substitute 1 in its place. Since $x_1$ and $y_1$ represent the x and y values of a point the line intersects, choose any one of the given points (either one is fine) and substitute its x and y values into the equation, too. (I chose (0,3).) Finally, isolate y to find the answer:

$y-3=1(x-0)\\y-3 = x\\y = x + 3$

Is the function linear or quadratic?

fgiga [73]

It is quadratic since a quadratic function is of the form :y=ax²+bx+c ,a,b,c are constants.
