Answer:

The answer is 42

Step-by-step explanation:

I might be doing this wrong, but if we multiply 40 by 30 to find the total area of the country (1,200 square miles), we can divide the total population (50,000) by each answer choice to find which answer is correct; 50,000/42 is equal to 1,190, the closest product to 1,200. I claim to have possibly done this wrong, but 42 was the correct answer I received on the quiz -- hope I helped!

tigry1 [53]

Answer:

4 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

using the vertex formula of a quadratic,

a(x-h)^{2} + k, where (h,k) is the vertex

h = -8(t-0.5)^{2}+2    h is height and t is time in seconds

the vertex (maximum height) of the dolphin is (h,k) or (0.5, 2)  

Height of 1/2

time of 2 seconds

it will take 2 additional seconds to reach the water again.

this can also be solved using quadratic equation, but since it was already set up in vertex form, i'd use that.

A gumball machine has just been filled with 50 black, 150 white, 100 red and 100 yellow gum balls that have been thoroughly mixe
Andrew [12]
<span>Exactly 33/532, or about 6.2% This is a conditional probability, So what we're looking for is the probability of 2 gumballs being selected both being red. So let's pick the first gumball. There is a total of 50+150+100+100 = 400 gumballs in the machine. Of them, 100 of the gumballs are red. So there's a 100/400 = 1/4 probability of the 1st gumball selected being red. Now there's only 399 gumballs in the machine and the probability of selecting another red one is 99/399 = 33/133. So the combined probability of both of the 1st 2 gumballs being red is 1/4 * 33/133 = 33/532, or about 0.062030075 = 6.2%</span>

Factor the GCF: 21x3y4 + 15x2y2 − 12xy3.
-Dominant- [34]
Ugh, these questions.

21x^3y^4 + 15x^2y^2 - 12xy^3

3xy^2 (7x^2y^2 + 5x - 4y)

Clearing up clutter...

3xy² (7x²y² + 5x - 4y)

That's your answer.  Thanks for working my brain. ;)
