If you want to go the long way you can go one by one to get the answer (shown here) 1 + 5.9= 6.9 divided by 2 = 3.45 (not a win)
2+ 5.9= 7.9 div. by 2 = 3.95 (not a win)
3+ 5.9= 8.9 div. by 2 = 4.45
4+ 5.9= 9.9 div. by 2 = 4.95
5+ 5.9= 10.9 div. by 2 = 5.45
6+ 5.9= 11.9 div. by 2 = 5.95 Win the lowest score Winona can get is a 6 in order to get the winning score.

Help ASAP!!!!<br> Which statement about the graph of the function y=(1/3)x are true?
mafiozo [28]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

1) False:  The function is decreasing (because the base, 1/3, is between 0 and 1).

2) True:  The function is decreasing (see #1, above)

3) False:  There is no x-intercept.

4) True:  If x is 0, then y = (1/3)^0 = 1.

5) False:  the range consists of the set of all real numbers greater than zero.

Write a function that is passed in a positive integer, n, and sum up all the digits from 1 to n, doubling the even numbers. In o
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

Written in Python

def sums(n):

    total = 0

    for i in range(1,n+1):

         if i%2 == 0:

              total = total + i*2

         else:

              total = total + i

    return(total)

Step-by-step explanation:

The function is written in Python

def sums(n):

This initializes total to 0

    total = 0

This iterates through the integers that makes up n i.e. 1,2,3.....n

    for i in range(1,n+1):

This checks if current digit is even

         if i%2 == 0:

If yes, it adds the double of the digit

              total = total + i*2

         else:

If otherwise, it adds the digit

              total = total + i

This prints the calculated sum or total

    return(total)

To call the function from main, use the following:

print(sums(n))

Where n is a positive integer. i.e. n \geq 1

Substitution to solve the linear system
STALIN [3.7K]

y=4x+2. eq1

y=5x. eq2

4x=2-y

x=(2-y) /4

substitute in equation 2

y=5(2-y) /2

y=(10-5y)/2

4y=10-5y

9y=10

y=10/9

substitute in equation 2 or 1

substituting in equation 2

10/9=5x

x=10/45

x=10/45 y=10/9

you can verify it also.

Can someone help me with 12 and explain how and why that’s the answer?
GuDViN [60]
Change both 4 to 2^2 and 8 to 2^3
you now have 2^2(4x-5)=2^3(3x-4)
2(4x-5)=3(3x-4)
8x-10=9x-12
x=2
