Answer:

C, D, E

Step-by-step explanation:

The numbers of marbles are:

  • Janae - m;
  • Jerome - m;
  • Gwen - 4(m+2);
  • John - 8m+4.

Janae, Jerome, and Gwen combined have

m + m + 4(m+2) = m + m +4m + 8 =6m + 8 marbles.

If John has more marbles than Janae, Jerome, and Gwen combined, then

8m+4>6m+8,\\ \\8m-6m>8-4,\\ \\2m>4,\\ \\m>2.

So, possible answers are

  • Janae and Jerome each have 3 marbles;
  • Janae and Jerome each have 4 marbles;
  • Janae and Jerome each have 5 marbles.

The area of a regular octagon is 35 cm^2. What is the area of a regular octagon with sides five times as long?
Marat540 [252]
So... let's say the smaller regular octagon has sides of "x" long, then the larger octagon will have sides of 5x.

\bf \qquad \qquad \textit{ratio relations}
\\\\
\begin{array}{ccccllll}
&Sides&Area&Volume\\
&-----&-----&-----\\
\cfrac{\textit{similar shape}}{\textit{similar shape}}&\cfrac{s}{s}&\cfrac{s^2}{s^2}&\cfrac{s^3}{s^3}
\end{array} \\\\
-----------------------------\\\\
\cfrac{\textit{similar shape}}{\textit{similar shape}}\qquad \cfrac{s}{s}=\cfrac{\sqrt{s^2}}{\sqrt{s^2}}=\cfrac{\sqrt[3]{s^3}}{\sqrt[3]{s^3}}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\

\bf \cfrac{small}{large}\quad \stackrel{area~ratio}{\cfrac{s^2}{s^2}}\implies \stackrel{area~ratio}{\cfrac{x^2}{(5x)^2}}\implies \stackrel{area~ratio}{\cfrac{x^2}{5^2x^2}}\implies \stackrel{area~ratio}{\cfrac{\underline{x^2}}{25\underline{x^2}}}=\stackrel{area~ratio}{\cfrac{35}{a}}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{1}{25}=\cfrac{35}{a}\implies a=\cfrac{25\cdot 35}{1}

A home improvement store rents vacuums at $45 for the first day and $22 for each day thereafter. If y represents the total cost
Gwar [14]

Answer with explanation:

Amount charged by Home Improvement Store for first day=$ 45

Amount charged per day after first day = $ 22

y= Total cost

x=Number of days Rented

Writing the above statement in terms of function

→y=1×$45 +(x-1)×$22

→→Total amount charged(y)=45+22x-22

→→→y=22x+23

is, the required function.
