Since the base is 3 inches and the height is 4 inches, as well as the area of a triangle being base*height/2, we get 3*4/2=6 in. for each triangle. Since we need 20 pieces for each puzzle, we multiply 6 by 20 to get 120. In addition, since 80 puzzles are needed, with 20 pieces for each puzzle, we have 120 inches for each puzzle and 120*80 = 9600 square inches of wood used
Answer:
x = 0, x = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Both graphs correctly plot f(x).
Only the bottom graph correctly plots g(x).
The points of intersection of f(x) and g(x) are (0, -4) and (1, -2). The x-value of these points are x = 0 and x = 1. These are the values of x for which f(x) = g(x).
Answers:
1.) 18 lemons
2.) 80 minutes
Explanation:
Porportions are a lot like fractions. For the first question, you can make the fraction 6/8, or 3/4 simplified. This means that for every 8 cups of water, you need 6 lemons.
Then, to find the amount of lemons you need if you have 24 cups of water, you need to think about what×8= 24. If we divide 24 by 8, we get 3, so if we multiply our fraction by 3/3, we should get the answer.
If we do 6/8 × 3/3, we get 18/24. This means that we need 18 lemons if we were to use 24 cups of water.
For the next question, our fraction 15/60, for 15 cakes baked in 60 minutes. Now we need to divide 20 cakes by 15.
This question is a little different from the first one because there will be a decimal involved. If we do 20/15, we get 1⅓. This means that this time, we will multiply 15/60 by (1⅓)/(1⅓).
If we multiply 60 by 1⅓, we get 80, which is the number of minutes needed to bake 20 cakes.
Hope this helps :)
For this case, we must clear variable "x" from the given equation, expressed in terms of "a".
We have:
3/a x-4=20
By clearing "x" we have:
Adding 4 to both sides of the equation:
3/a x = 20 + 4
Multiplying by a/3 on both sides of the equation:
x=24a/3
x=8a
So, x=8a
Answer:
x=8a
