Answer:

Profit earned by Randi on her last snow shoveling and salting job= $ 60

Let number of hours spent by Randi on that day while working as a shoveler and salter = x hours

Writing the statement in terms of inequality

→ Number of hours worked= Amount of profit earned

→ x=60

→If profit is less than $60.00, then Number of hours will be less.

→If Profit is more i.e greater than $60.00, Number of hours will be more.

If the mean of the data below is 3.8 find m. <br>x 1 2 3 4 5 6 <br>y 2 4 7 m 6 3

Ivahew [28]

Answer:

m = 0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean can be calculated as:

$\frac{2 + 4 + 7 + m + 6 + 3}{6} = 3.8$

Then, all the values can be added and the expression turns into:

$\frac{22 + m }{6} = 3.8$

The expression can be simplified by multiplying on both sides by 6:

$\frac{22 + m }{6}*6 = 3.8*6$

$22 + m = 22.8$

Which makes m = 0.8

Answer:

$2x^2+xy-3y^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by taking everything out of the parentheses:

$3x^2-2xy-2y^2-x^2-(-3xy)-(y^2)$

Note two negatives make a positive:

$3x^2-2xy-2y^2-x^2+3xy-y^2$

Combine like terms:

$3x^2-x^2-2xy+3xy-2y^2-y^2$

Simplify

$2x^2+xy-3y^2$

Find the set of values of k for which the line y=kx-4 intersects the curve y=x²-2x at 2 distinct points?

Sonbull [250]

Answer:

$-6 < k < 2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$y = x^2 - 2x$

$y =kx -4$

Required

Possible values of k

The general quadratic equation is:

$ax^2 + bx + c = 0$

Subtract $y = x^2 - 2x$ and $y =kx -4$

$y - y = x^2 - 2x - kx +4$

$0 = x^2 - 2x - kx +4$

Factorize:

$0 = x^2 +x(-2 - k) +4$

Rewrite as:

$x^2 +x(-2 - k) +4=0$

Compare the above equation to: $ax^2 + bx + c = 0$

$a = 1$

$b= -2-k$

$c =4$

For the equation to have two distinct solution, the following must be true:

$b^2 - 4ac > 0$

So, we have:

$(-2-k)^2 -4*1*4>0$

$(-2-k)^2 -16>0$

Expand

$4 +4k+k^2-16>0$

Rewrite as:

$k^2 + 4k - 16 + 4 >0$

$k^2 + 4k - 12 >0$

Expand

$k^2 + 6k-2k - 12 >0$

Factorize

$k(k + 6)-2(k + 6) >0$

Factor out k + 6

$(k -2)(k + 6) >0$

Split:

$k -2 > 0$ or $k + 6> 0$

So:

$k > 2$ or k $> -6$

To make the above inequality true, we set:

$k < 2$ or $k >-6$

So, the set of values of k is:

$-6 < k < 2$

Mnenie [13.5K]

1/2 because the baker has 4 cups of strawberries after they make the cheesecake and the 4 cups divided between the 8 batches would equal 1/2 cup of strawberries in each batch
