Answer:

$1 \frac{2}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

1/3= 2 days

And 1/3÷2= 1/6

So 1/6 of a loaf a day

1/6 x 10= 10/6=

I don't quite understand the log form you have, but the way to solve logarithms is to convert them to exponents.

log(b) a = c
b^c = a

So....

log(b) x = y
b^y = x

Does that make sense?

Sanjay graphs a quadratic function that has x-intercepts of –3 and 7. Which functions could he have graphed?

kykrilka [37]

we will select each options and find zeros

(a)

$g(x)=x^2-4x-21$

for finding x-intercept , we can set g(x)=0

and then we can solve for x

$g(x)=x^2-4x-21=0$

now, we can factor it

$(x-7)(x+3)=0$

we get

$x=7,x=-3$

so, this is TRUE

(b)

$g(x)=(x-3)(x+7)$

we can set it to 0

and then we can solve for x

$g(x)=(x-3)(x+7)=0$

we get

$x=3,x=-7$

so, this is FALSE

(c)

$g(x)=3x^2-12x-63$

we can set it to 0

and then we can solve for x

$g(x)=3x^2-12x-63 =0$

$3(x^2-4x-21) =0$

$3(x-7)(x+3) =0$

$x=-3,x=7$

so, this is TRUE

(d)

$g(x)=-(x+3)(x-7)$

now, we can set it to 0

and then we can solve for x

$g(x)=-(x+3)(x-7)=0$

$x=-3,x=7$

so, this is TRUE

(e)

we have

$g(x)=x^2+4x-21$

now, we can set it to 0

and then we can solve for x

$g(x)=x^2+4x-21=0$

$(x+7)(x-3)=0$

$x=-7,x=3$

so, this is FALSE

Malcolm has been watching a roulette-style game at a local charity bazaar. The game has only ten numbers on the wheel, and every

Mariana [72]

Answer:

Malcolm is showing evidence of gambler's fallacy.

This is the tendency to think previous results can affect future performance of an event that is fundamentally random.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since each round of the roulette-style game is independent of each other. The probability that 8 will come up at any time remains the same, equal to the probability of each number from 1 to 10 coming up. That it has not come up in the last 15 minutes does not increase or decrease the probability that it would come up afterwards.

Write an equation in standard form for the line that passes through the given points.

Agata [3.3K]

So, pretend this is your x-axis and y-axis:

(-2,7) • I

I • (2, 5)

_________________I____________________

TO GET FROM POINT (-2, 7) TO POINT (2, 5), WE MOVE DOWN 2 AND OVER 4, SO THE SLOPE IS -1/2. IF WE FOLLOW THAT SLOPE AND MOVE DOWN 1 AND OVER 2 FROM THE FIRST POINT OF (-2, 7), WE WILL LAND ON A POINT LOCATED AT (0, 6), WHICH WOULD BE THE "Y-INTERCEPT". WE WERE JUST ABLE TO CALCULATE THE SLOPE OF THE LINE AND THEN USE THE SLOPE TO FIND THE INTERCEPT. SO, THE "SLOPE-INTERCEPT" FORM OF THE EQUATION FOR THIS LINE IS:

y = -1/2x + 6

TO RE-WRITE THIS IN STANDARD FORM, WE JUST WANT TO MOVE THE X VARIABLE OVER TO THE LEFT WITH THE Y VARIABLE, SO:

y = -1/2x + 6

+1/2x + 1/2x

1/2x + y = 6 .... and that is your answer!
