Answer:

13

Step-by-step explanation:

If Alex and Joan's combined weight is 310, keep that in mind for each trip.

(1000-310)/50=answer

100-310= 690

690/50= 13.8

But you can't have a partial box, so it'll be only 13. You can't round up because then the total weight will be 10 over.

1st: x = -5y - 5z - 2
2nd: x = 5y/4 - z + 19/4
3rd: x = -5y + z - 20
Not sure if this was correct, but anyways hope this helps! :)

The true statement about the diagram is (a) IJ ≅ JG

<h3>How to determine the true statement?</h3>

From the question, we understand that:

KH bisects line IG at point J

This means that:

Line segment IG is divided into two equal parts, and point J is the middle

So, we have:

IJ ≅ JG

Hence, the true statement about the diagram is (a) IJ ≅ JG

The angles in a triangle are in the ratio 1:2:3 a) Show that the triangle is a right -angled triangle b) The hypotenuse of the t
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

8.5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Angles of the triangle:

  • x+2x+3x= 180
  • 6x= 180
  • x= 30
  • 30°, 60° and 90°

Right triangle as it has 90° angle

Sides are a, b and 19 cm

  • sin 30°= a/19 ⇒ a= 19 sin 30°= 19*0.5= 8.5 cm  = shortest side
  • sin 60°= b/19 ⇒ b= 19 sin 60°= 19*0.866= 16.45 cm

azul is planting a vegetable garden. he is using a bag of marbles to determine how many of each veggie to plant. his bag contain
kaheart [24]
1. Total number of marbles=10 red marbles+80 green marbles+110 orange marbles=200 marbles
2. Let's call "V" the event that consists that he selects a green marble from the bag. Then:
 P(x)=80/200
 P(x)=0.4

 3. This problem can be represented by a binomial distribution, where:

 P=0.4
 q=1-P=0.6
 n=50

 4. The expect value in a binomial function is written as below:

 E(x)=nxP
 E(x)=50x0.4
 E(x)=20

 The answer is: He can expect 20 zucchini.

Use the remainder theorem to show that (x+1) is a factor of f(x)=2x^3-7x^2-5x+4
Nitella [24]

well, the remainder theorem says that if the polynomial f(x) has a factor of (x-a), then if we just plug in the "a" in f(x) it'll gives a remainder, assuming (x-a) is indeed a factor, then that remainder must be 0, so if f(a) = 0 then indeed (x-a) is a factor of f(x).  After all that mumble jumble, let's proceed, we have (x+1), that means [ x - (-1) ], so if we plug in -1 in f(x), we should get 0, or f(-1) = 0, let's see if that's true.

\begin{array}{llrll} f(-1)&=&2(-1)^3-7(-1)^2-5(-1)+4\\\\ &&2(-1)-7(1)-5(-1)+4\\\\ &&-2-7+5+4\\\\ &&-9+9\\ &&0&~~\checkmark \end{array}
