The number of students in Mr. Boggs’s homeroom is equal to b. Add the total number of students in each class and set it equal to 90.
90 = b + 1.5(b + 2) + 15 + (2b – 9)
Use the Distributive Property, and collect like terms. 90 = b + 1.5b + 3 + 15 + 2b – 9
90 = 4.5b + 9
Answer:
d) x-intercept
Step-by-step explanation:
The zeros of a function are the values of x that make y = 0.
Thus, they are the points where the graph crosses the x-axis, that is, the x-intercepts.
a) is wrong. the y-intercept is simply the value of y when x = 0.
b) and c) are wrong. A quadratic can have only one maximum or one minimum; it can't have both. And they are not zeros except in the special case of y = ±ax².
The diagram below is the graph of y = x² + 3x - 46. It shows the zeros at x = -23 and x = 20. The minimum and the y-intercept are not zeros of the function.
The answer would be 'b'
Now, here Luke walks total 2¼ miles but his friend's home is ¼ mile. So, number of trips he makes = Total miles walked ÷ Distance to his friend's home
= 2¼ ÷ ¼ = 9
He had 40 pencils left after he gave away 8, so originally he had 40 + 8 pencils, which is 48.
Now, he bought 4 packages, which had a total of 48 pencils, so divide 48 by 4, which is 12. He had 12 pencils in each package.
To determine the solution arithmetically, first add 8 to 40, then divide 48 by 4.
To determine the solution algebraically, set up and solve the equation 40 = 4x - 8.
Each package contained 12 pencils.
Hope this helps
