Answer:

Option C is correct

(20, 16)

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the statement:

Mira picked two numbers from a bowl. The difference of the two numbers was 4, and the sum of one-half of each number was 18

System of equation is given as:

\frac{1}{2}x+\frac{1}{2}y = 18            .....[1]

x-y = 4                                           .....[2]

Multiply both sides by 2 in [1] we have;

x+y = 36             ....[3]

Add equations [2] and [3] we have;

2x = 40

Divide both sides by 2 we have;

x = 20

Substitute the value of x in [2] we have;

20-y = 4

Subtract 20 from both sides we have;

-y = -16

Divide both sides by -1 we have;

y = 16

therefore, the two numbers did Mira pick is, (20, 16)

The answer is 80. This is because we can find the area of one of the triangles by (4*8)/2 = 16. We multiply this by 4 since there are 4 triangles. 16*4 = 64. Now finally, we add the area of the base to this value. 4*4+64=80. Therefore the answer is 80 cm^2

Which expression represents this word phrase?<br><br> five more than the product of x and 6
disa [49]

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

<u>The expression is:</u> 6x + 5

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>

Product means <u>multiplication</u>

Therefore, the product of x and 6 means that we will multiply x by 6

<u>This would give us:</u> 6x

Now, five more than the product means that we will <u>add</u> 5 to the product we just obtained

<u>This means that:</u>

<u>five more than the product of x and 6 is:</u>

6x + 5

Hope this helps :)

Use complete sentences to describe how measurements of position in two directions (vertical and horizontal) are sufficient enoug
4vir4ik [10]

Essentially, you can always tell a thing's position by 3 coordinates. We also say that our world is three-dimentional: it has three dimensions -that's why three coordinates are needed. If something is on a flat surface, you know its one coordinate (all points on the same surface have the same coordinate) so you only need two more (you can call them vertical and horizontal)
