Answer:

Abel receives $60, and Cedric receives $120

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Abel's share = A

Let Cedric's share = C

we are given the following

A + C = 180  - - - - - (1)   (Abel and Cedric will share a total of $180)

A = \frac{C}{2}\ - - - - - - - (2) (Abel will receive half as much as Cedric. )

from equation 2:

A = \frac{C}{2}\\ C = 2A\ - - - - - - (3)

putting this value of C in eqn (3) into eqn (1)

A + (2A) = 180

3A = 180

∴ A = 180 ÷ 3 = 60

to find C, let us replace the value of A in eqn (3) with 60

C = 2A - - - - (3)

C = 2 × 60

C = 120

Therefore, Abel receives $60, and Cedric receives $120

Ruth has a beaker containing a solution of 800 mL of acid and 200 mL of water. She thinks the solution is a little strong, so sh
NISA [10]

Answer:

350 mL of water

Step-by-step explanation:

Well she starts with 200mL of water and there is 800 mL of acid of water.

She drains 100 mL of acid and adds 100 mL of water so there is 300 mL of water.

And she stirs meaning the compounds have mixed.

Then she drains 100 mL and she they are mixed she drains half of acid and half of water so she has 250 mL of water.

The she adds 100 mL of water so now there’s 350 mL of water left.

Find the volume of the prism.
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

The correct answer is first option.  270 m³

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula:

Volume of prism = Base area * Height

Area of triangle = bh/2  where b - base and h - height

From the figure we can see that height of prism = 36 m

Base is a right angled triangle with base 5 m and height = 3 m

<u>To find the Base area</u>

Area of triangle = bh/2 = (3 * 5)/2 = 15/2 = 7.5

<u>To find the volume of prism</u>

Volume = Base area * height = 7.5 * 36 = 270 m³

Therefore the correct answer is first option . 270 m³

8. Graph the following equation: y = x2 + 4x - 5
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

Given: y = x2 + 4x – 5

Find the following

y-intercept

x-intercepts or the zeros of the functions or roots

graph of the function, given vertex is at (-2, -9)

Solve the system of linear equations      – x + 6y = 8        2x + 5y = 3

Write the names of curves, given their equations:  

x2/16 + y2/9 = 1

3y = 2x + 5

(x - 5)2 + (y + 6)2 = 25

x2/16 – y2/25 = 1

y = 2x2 + 10x + 25

Write down the first five terms of the arithmetic progression with the first term 8 and common difference 7, then find the 17th

Write down the first five terms of the geometric progression with the first term 3 and common ratio 2, then find the 17th

How to find if it is a function or not:
Leto [7]

Answer: It is not a function.

Step-by-step explanation:

A function is something that "eats" an input and transforms it into an output.

We write them as y = f(x)

Where x is the input, and y is the output.

Now, a function has an important rule, for each input x, the function can only "transform it" (or map it) into only one possible output.

This means that, for example, if we have, for x = x1.

And a single

f(x1) = y1

f(x1) = y2

where y1 and y2 are different values.

Then this is not a function, because it is mapping the value x1 into two different outputs.

In this case, we would have:

f(Z) = A.

So Z is the input, but we know that a ZIP code works for an entire city, and in a given city we have lots of different street addresses, then for a single value of the input, Z, we have a lot of possible values of the output.

This means taht the set (Z, A) can not represent a function.
