Carlita was either sipping the hot chocolate while she was out, or else
approximating the numbers.  The exact number she reported is not
possible.  To see why, I'll do it strictly by the math:

Robins  =  5 times
Cardinals  =  1 time

Total birds  =  6 times 

6 times  =  25 birds

Divide each side by 6 :   1 time  =  25/6  =  4-1/6 birds

Robins =  5 times  =  20-5/6 of them
Cardinals  =  1 time  =  4-1/6 of them

Total:  (20-5/6) + (4-1/6)  =  25 birds.

How many more robins than cardinals  = (20-5/6) - (4-1/6) = 16-2/3 more. 

The math works out fine.  But if the numbers she reported are true,
then some of what she saw was partial birds ... legs, or feathers,
things like that.  Eeeew.   I don't want to talk about it.

20 because 5x5=25 so she saw 5 x as many if you divide 5 and 25 you get five

Answer:

-7 < -4 < 0 < 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Change: -4, 7, -7 and 0

Required

Compare them

From the list of given options, we can observe that the inequality < is used in all options.

This implies that we arrange from least to highest

The least is -7

Then, -4

Then 0

And lastly, 7

So, we have:

-7 < -4 < 0 < 7

Given that (1, 0, 1) is a solution to a system of three linear equations, which of the following is true about the system?
Anna35 [415]
<h3>Answer:  Choice C) </h3><h3>The system can only be independent and consistent</h3>

===========================================================

Explanation:

Let's go through the answer choices

  • A) This isn't possible. Either a system is consistent or inconsistent. It cannot be both at the same time. The term "inconsistent" literally means "not consistent". It's like saying a cup is empty and full at the same time. We can rule out choice A.
  • B) This is similar to choice A and we cannot have a system be both independent and dependent. Either a system is independent or dependent, but not both. Independence means that the two equations are not tied together, while dependent equations are some multiple of each other. We can rule out choice B.
  • C) We'll get back to this later
  • D) The independence/dependence status is unknown without the actual equations present. However, we know 100% that this system is not inconsistent. This is because the system has at least one solution. Inconsistent systems do not have any solutions at all (eg: parallel lines that never cross). We can rule out choice D because of this.

Going back to choice C, again we don't have enough info to determine if the system is independent or dependent, but we at least know it's consistent. Consistent systems have one or more solutions. So part of choice C can be confirmed. It being the only thing left means that it has to be the final answer.

If it were me as the teacher, I'd cross out the "independent" part of choice C and simply say the system is consistent.

. A pitcher’s mound on a women’s softball field is 43 feet from home plate and the distance between the bases is 60 feet. How fa
butalik [34]

Answer:

42.43 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Please find attached an image of the softball pitch

h² = p² + f² -2x p×f×cos45

h² = 43² + 60² - 2x (43)(60) x 0.7071

h² = 1849 +  3600 - 3648.636

h² = 1800.364

h = √1800.364

h = 42.43 feet
