Let x be the weight of her parakeet. From this, we know that her fish weighs 8x.

8x + x = 63
9x = 63
x = 7

Her fish weighs 7 x 8 ounces = 56 ounces.

Let x =the weight of the parakeet. 8x=weight of the fish. x+8x=63 <-weight of fish and parakeet together equals 63 ounces. SOLVE FOR X. 9x=63. /9 /9 x=7 <-- parakeet weighs 7 ounces. 8x= 8(7). 8x7= 56. the fish weighs 56 ounces.

Answer:

6x² - 19x + 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

(3x - 2)(2x - 5)

Each term in the second factor is multiplied by each term in the first factor, that is

3x(2x - 5) - 2(2x - 5) ← distribute both parenthesis

= 6x² - 15x - 4x + 10 ← collect like terms

= 6x² - 19x + 10

1. A quadrilateral has vertices (5, 3) (5,-1) (-1,3) and (-1,-1). What special quadrilateral is formed by connecting the midpoin
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

1. Kite,

2. Kite.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The quadrilateral form will have 2 equal  pairs of adjacent sides which is a kite.

2. Find the slope and length of the sides:-

slopes (9-6)/ 0-3) = -1

(6-1) / (3-0) = 5/3

(6-1) / (-3-0) = -5/3

(9-6)/(3) = 1

Lengths = sqrt(9 + 9) = sqrt18

sqrt(25 + 9) = sqrt34

sqrt (25 + 9) = sqrt34

sqrt (9 + 9) = sqrt18.

This is another kite.
