First we need to figure out what half of 128 is

128 ÷ 2 = 64

Now, we need to divide 64 by the amount of students she has (16)

64 ÷ 16 = 4

Therefore, each student will get 4 pencils meaning the answer is D

Hope this helps

3/4(n+3)=9 how do I find n
katrin [286]
It's one of the ways to count it:

3/4 (n + 3) = 9
3/4n + 3/4 * 3 = 9
3/4n + 9/4 = 9
3/4n + 2 1/4 = 9     / - 2 1/4 (both sides)
3/4n = 6 3/4     / : 3/4 (both sides)
n = 9

Mathieu is finding the x-intercepts of the function f(x)=x^2+4x+3. His world is shown below. (In the photo) The Answer is: (He s
navik [9.2K]

Answer:

X intercepts are points where a function intersects or cuts through the x axis where y=0.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the function given which is f(x) =x^2 +4x + 3 we see that this is a parabola of which when the graph is drawn it has a U shape so when finding x intercepts of this function it is those points on the function where the graph cuts the x axis and at those two points f(x)= 0, so here Mathieu had made a mistake of factorizing and equating the x intercepts for this function.

For finding the X intercepts let f(x) = 0

therefore 0= x^2 + 4x + 3  now we solve for x

0= (x+1)(x+3)  

(x+1)= 0 or (x+3)=0

therefore x=-1 or x=-3

now if you substitute these values onto the function they give f(x)= 0,

f(-1) = (-1)^2 + 4(-1) + 3 = 0

f(-3) = (-3)^2 + $(-3) + 3 =0

now let us look at Mathieus answer which is x+1 = x+3 yes these x values do give the same y value but they are not equal because if you can actually solve this further you would not get a defined answer. Both these are factors of the function but are not actually equal as the function would not be able to be drawn if this was the case.

Help please! absolute value equations! ​
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

n = -1                       n = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

5| 2n+8| +3 = 33

Subtract 3 from each side

5| 2n+8| +3-3 = 33-3

5| 2n+8| = 30

Divide by 5

5/5| 2n+8| = 30/5

| 2n+8| = 6

An absolute value equation has two solutions, one positive and one negative

2n+8 = 6              2n+8 = -6

Subtract 8 from each side

2n+8-8=6-8          2n+8-8 = -6-8

2n = -2                    2n = -14

Divide by 2

2n/2 = -2/2            2n/2 = -14/2

n = -1                       n = -7

An ice skater standing on an icy surface pushes off a wall. The ice skater has a mass of 60 kg and exerts a force of 100 N on th
dexar [7]

It's 100 N, which follows directly from Newton's third law - for every force acting on a body, that same body exerts a force equal in magnitude in response.
