Hello!

To begin solving this, we must determine the total amount of weight that needed to be divided. Since three people each carried 7.8kg of equipment (before the fourth person joined), the total amount is:
7.8x3= 23.4

After the fourth person joins the group, the weight is divided equally among the climbers:
23.4/4= 5.85

Each climber carried 5.85 kilograms of equipment.

I hope this helps you! Have a fantastic day!

Part of the graph of the function f(x) = (x - 1)(x + 7) is
Romashka [77]

Answer:

In BOLD.

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = (x - 1)(x + 7)

Convert to vertex form.

= x^2 + 6x - 7

= (x + 3)^2 - 9 - 7

= (x = 3)^2 - 16

So the vertex is at (-3, -16)

Also, as the vertex is a minimum the graph is increasing on interval x > -3.

From the graph we see:

The graph is positive on the interval

where x < -7  and x > 1.

- and negative where

-7 < x < 1.

The Math Club wants to order t-shirts to recognize students who improved their performance in Algebra I for their hard work and
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

Cost of ordering t-shirts the same at both sides is 7

The cost is $85

Step-by-step explanation:

let x equal the number of tshirts

Hence:

15 + 10x = 50 + 5x

10x-5x= 50-15

5x = 35

35/5x

x = 7

Therefore the cost of ordering t-shirts the same at both sides is 7

The cost is $85

There are 11 green marbles and 18 silver marbles in a bag. You randomly choose one of the marbles. What is the probability of ch
Crazy boy [7]

The Probability of choosing a green marble out of total 29 marbles is 11/29.

What is the Probability?

Probability defines the likelihood of occurrence of an event. There are many real-life situations in which we may have to predict the outcome of an event. We may be sure or not sure of the results of an event. In such cases, we say that there is a probability of this event to occur or not occur.

Total number of marbles = 11 Green + 18 Silver = 29 marbles

Number of Green marbles = 11

Probability = Number of green marble / Total number of marbles

                  = 11 / 29

Thus, The Probability of choosing a green marble out of total 29 marbles is 11/29.
