Answer:

The correct answer is that a rose bush costs $10 and a shrub costs $4

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, start by writing equations for what each spent. Use x for the cost of a rose bush and y for the cost of a shrub. Below would be the equations for each.

Rob: 8x + 5y = 100

Amy: 8x + 8y = 112

Now to find the cost, we multiply Rob's equation by -1 and add them together. This will get x to cancel and allow us to solve for y.

-8x - 5y = -100

8x + 8y = 112

------------------

3y = 12

y = 4

So we know the cost of a shrub is $4. Now we can plug that in to either of the original equations and solve for the rose bush cost.

8x + 5y = 100

8x + 5(4) = 100

8x + 20 = 100

8x = 80

x = 10

Which means that a rose bush costs $10.

3.21 meters

There's 100 centimeters in a meter (centi means 100) so 79 centimeters equals 0.79 meters. So 4 - 0.79 is 3.21

Hey, Its the same person. This is Algebra 2. Please Help!

Answer:

first option

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x) = \frac{2x^2+5x-12}{x+4} ← factorise the numerator

     = \frac{(x + 4)(2x-3)}{x+4} ← cancel (x + 4) on numerator/ denominator

     = 2x - 3

Cancelling (x + 4) creates a discontinuity ( a hole ) at x + 4 = 0, that is

x = - 4

Substitute x = - 4 into the simplified f(x) for y- coordinate

f(- 4) = 2(- 4) - 3 = - 8 - 3 = - 11

The discontinuity occurs at (- 4, - 11 )

To obtain the zero let f(x) = 0, that is

2x - 3 = 0 ⇒ 2x = 3 ⇒ x = \frac{3}{2}

There is a zero at ( \frac{3}{2}, 0 )

Thus

discontinuity at (- 4, - 11 ), zero at ( \frac{3}{2}, 0 )

Use the Empirical Rule. The mean speed of a sample of vehicles along a stretch of highway is 68 miles per​ hour, with a standard
Vladimir79 [104]

About 99.7% of vehicles whose speeds are between 59 miles per hour and 77 miles per hour.

Empirical rule states that for a normal distribution, 68% lie within one standard deviations, 95% lie within two standard deviations, and 99.7% lie within three standard deviations of the mean.

Given that mean (μ) = 68 miles per hour, standard deviation (σ) = 3 miles per hour.

68% lie within one standard deviation = (μ ± σ) = (68 ± 3) = (65, 71).

Hence 68% of the vehicle speed is between 65 miles per hour and 71 miles per hour.

95% lie within two standard deviation = (μ ± 2σ) = (68 ± 2*3) = (62, 74).

Hence 95% of the vehicle speed is between 62 miles per hour and 74 miles per hour.

99.7% lie within three standard deviation = (μ ± 3σ) = (68 ± 3*3) = (59, 77).

Hence 99.7% of the vehicle speed is between 59 miles per hour and 77 miles per hour.
