It takes 3/5 feet of ribbon to make a pin. You have 9 feet of ribbon. How many pins can you make?

You can divide 9 by \frac{3}{5} to find the amount of pins, (let's call this number x), you can make with 9 $ ft$ of ribbon.

x=9 \div \frac{3}{5} \\ \\  x= \frac{9}{1} \div \frac{3}{5} \\ \\ x= \frac{9}{1} \times \frac{5}{3} \\ \\ x= \frac{9 \times 5}{1 \times 3} \\ \\ x= \frac{45}{3} \\ \\ x=15

So, 15 pins can be made.

How many solutions exist for the system of equations graphed below?
tamaranim1 [39]

Considering the given graph, the number of solutions for the system of equations is given by:

b.) one

<h3>What is a system of equations?</h3>

A system of equations is when two or more variables are related, and equations are built to find the values of each variable.

In a graph, the number of solutions is given by the number of times the lines intersect. Hence, in this problem, the system has one solution, and option b is correct.

A certain radioactive isotope has leaked into a small stream. Three hundred days after the​ leak, 3% of the original amount of t
sesenic [268]
If the half-life is t, then every t days, the amount of the radioactive isotope will be cut in half.
(1/2)^(number of half-lives) = 3%
number of half-lives = ln(0.03) / ln(0.5)
This gives the number of half-lives as 5.06.
Then 300 days = (5.06)(length of 1 half-life)
length of 1 half-life = 300 / 5.06 = 59.29 days

Given a polynomial function f(x), describe the effects on the y-intercept, regions where the graph is increasing and decreasing,

<span>The y-intercept of  is  .
Of course, it is 3 less than  , the y-intercept of  .
Subtracting 3 does not change either the regions where the graph is increasing and decreasing, or the end behavior. It just translates the graph 3 units down.
It does not matter is the function is odd or even.

The y-intercept, the value of  for  , is</span><span>which is  times the y-intercept of  .</span><span>Because of the negative factor/mirror-like graph, the intervals where  increases are the intervals where  decreases, and vice versa.
The end behavior is similarly reversed.

The same goes for the other end, as  tends to  .
All of the above applies equally to any function, polynomial or not, odd, even, or neither odd not even.
Of course, if polynomial functions are understood to have a non-zero degree,  never happens for a polynomial function.</span><span> </span>
