Mathematics

trasher [3.6K]3 years ago

Answer:to find the difference between 6/8 and 1/7, you need to make the denominators (the bottom numbers) the same. turn 6/8 into 42/56. then turn 1/7 into 8/56. you’ll then do 42/56-8/56. so it’ll be 42-8=36. so it will come out to 36/56, which is (when simplified) is 9/14. your answer will be 9/14.

Salomon tracks the weight of his new puppy every 2 weeks. She weighs 10 lbs the
Gekata [30.6K]

Equation (B) "y = 3x + 10" represents the growth of the puppy.

<h3>What are equations?</h3>
  • An equation is a mathematical formula where the "equal to" sign appears between two expressions having the same value.
  • Like 3x plus 5 equals 15, for example.
  • Different types of equations exist, such as linear, quadratic, cubic, and others.
  • The three primary forms of linear equations are the slope-intercept form, standard form, and point-slope form.

So, the equation that represents the situation:

  • The weight increase is: (10, 13, 16, 19, 22, 25)
  • We can observe that every time, there is a rise of 3lbs of weight.
  • Now, let 10 be a constant as the weight is starting from 10 lbs.
  • And 'x' be the number of time Salomon tracks the weight.

Then:

  • y = 3x + 10

For example, Salomon checks the weight for the 6th time then:

  • y = 3x + 10
  • y = 3(5) + 10
  • y = 15 + 10
  • y = 25

So, the equation is correct.

Therefore, equation (B) "y = 3x + 10" represents the growth of the puppy.

The correct question is given below:
Salomon tracks the weight of his new puppy every 2 weeks. She weighs 10 lbs the day he brings her home. His list for her first 6 "weighs" is as follows: (10, 13, 16, 19, 22, 25}

Which equation represents the growth of the puppy? Select one:

A. y = x + 3

B. y = 3x + 10

C. y = 10x + 3

D. y = x + 10

Simplify the expression.
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

  D. x to the power of nine

Step-by-step explanation:

The applicable rule of exponents is ...

  (x^a)^b = x^(ab)

You have a=3/2, b=6, so ab = 3/2·6 = 9.

  (x^(3/2))^6 = x^(3/2·6) = x^9

Which equation represents the line that passes through the points (6, 7) and (-3, -2)?
Scrat [10]

(6, 7) and (-3, -2)

1. Find the slope.

m = slope

m = (-2 -7)/(-3 -6)

m = -9/-9

m = 1

2. Plug the slope and one of the points into the equation y - y_1 = m(x - x_1).

y - 7 = 1(x - 6)

3. Solve for y.

y - 7 = x - 6

y = x - 6 + 7

y = x + 1

Answer is choice D.

Suppose a lake has a surface area of about 748 acres and an average depth of about 18 feet. About how many cubic feet are in the
zloy xaker [14]

Answer: There are 13464 cubic feet in the lake.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Surface area of lake = 748 acres

Average depth of lake = 18 feet

So, Volume of lake would be

Surface area of lake × Average depth

=748\times 18\\\\=13464

Hence, there are 13464 cubic feet in the lake.
