Jim is standing beside a pool. He drops away from 4 feet above the surface of the water in the pool. The weight travels a total

distance of 12 feet down before landing on the bottom of the pool. Explain how you can write a sum of integers to find the depth of the water.

The weight is dropped from 4 feet above the surface. Add -12 to represent the distance the weight falls before it hits the bottom. 4+(-12)=8. The water is 8 feet deep.

Tom brought 7/8 gallons of water to a party and his friends drank2/3 of it. How many gallons of water did they drink?
natka813 [3]
In plain and short, what's 2/3 of 7/8?  well, is just their product.

\bf \cfrac{7}{8}\cdot \cfrac{2}{3}\implies \cfrac{7\cdot 2}{8\cdot 3}\implies \cfrac{14}{24}\implies \stackrel{simplified}{\cfrac{7}{12}}

A factory produces 90 packages of mixed nuts in 1 min. A quality control manager selected 10 of these 90 packages at random and
valentina_108 [34]
Answer:

34

explanation:

First of all, put the numbers in order

30, 31, 31, 32, 33, 35, 35, 35, 36, 36

Then, find the middle number.
In this case, there is an even amount of numbers so, we have to pick the 2 middle numbers which is 33 and 35.

Now all you have to do is add these two numbers together then divide by 2 which will give you 34.

or, in simpler questions like this one, you can just say 34 as you know it is between 33 and 35.


In other questions, it might have and odd amount of numbers, for example:

3, 3, 5, 8, 10

so all you would do here is pick the middle number which would be 5. (it has 2 numbers on each side of it)

What is the equation of a line that is perpendicular to y=4x-5 and passes through (-4,6)
lozanna [386]

Answer:

y=-1/4x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

perpendicular lines have slopes that multiply to -1.

Our given line:

y=4x-5

the slope (m) in it is 4. To find the slope of the perpendicular line:

4m=-1

divide by 4

m=-1/4

the slope of the new line is -1/4

here's our equation so far:

y=-1/4x+b

Since the line will pass through the point (-4,6) we can use it to solve for b (y intercept)

so substitute (-4,6) into the equation

6=-1/4(-4)+b

6=1+b

5=b

the y intercept is 5

so our equation is:

y=-1/4x+5

hope this helps! :D

Determine which of the following equations, when graphed, intersect at the point (4, 0). Select all that apply. x - y = 4 -x - y
Elza [17]

Answer: only (x-y=4) and (x+y=4).


Step-by-step explanation:

Notice target point has y=0, so all terms with y are zero. Then all 6 equations reduce to m x = k, for various m and k. So calculate 4×m and compare to k six times.


x - y = 4 4=4 yes

-x - y = 4 -4=4 no

2x - y = 7 8=7 no

x + y = 4 4=4 yes

2x + y = 7 8=7 no

2x + y = -7 8=-7 no.
