Answer:

21

Step-by-step explanation:

We have an equation in the first sentence we are given.  Mike and Alice together recycled 147 bottles, so in equation form that looks like this:

M + A = 147.

That alone doesn't do us much good because we have 2 unknowns.  The next sentence gives us Mike's number of bottles based on Alice's.  If the number Mike recycles is 6 times as many as Alice, replace the word "is" with an "=" and "6 times as many as Alice" with 6A to get:

M = 6A

Now we can go back to the first equation and replace M with 6A:

6A + A = 147

Now we only have A's.  That's a good thing.  Solve for A:

7A = 147

A = 21

Write the equation of a line in standard form that has x-intercept (P,0) and y-intercept (0,R).
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

Rx+Py=RP

Step-by-step explanation:

The points on the straight line are (P, 0) and (0, R).

The slope would be

m=\frac{R-0}{0-P}=-\frac{R}{P}

And b=R, because the y-intercept is at (0, R).

So, the equation of this line would be

y=-\frac{R}{P} x+R

Where we multiply the equation by P

Py=-Rx+RP

Therefore, the equation that represents this line is

Rx+Py=RP

<h2>So, the right answer is B.</h2>

A square napkin is folded in half on the diagonal and placed on the diameter of a round plate (see diagram below). If the folded
Crank

Answer:

A=81(\pi-1)\ in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the area of the plate

The area of a circle is given by the formula

A=\pi r^{2}

we have

r=18/2=9\ in ---> the radius is half the diameter

substitute

A=\pi (9)^{2}\\A=81\pi\ in^2

step 2

Find the area of the square napkin folded (is a half of the area of the square napkin)

we know that

The diagonal of the square is the same that the diameter of the plate

Applying Pythagorean theorem

D^2=2b^2

where

b is the length side of the square

we have

D=18\ in

substitute

18^2=2b^2

solve for b^2

b^2=162\ in^2 -----> is the area of the square

Divide by 2

162/2=81\ in^2

step 3

Find the area of the space on the plate that is NOT covered by the napkin

we know that

The  area of the space on the plate that is NOT covered by the napkin, is equal to subtract the area of the square napkin folded (is a half of the area of the square napkin) from the area of the plate

so

A=(81\pi-81)\ in^2

simplify

A=81(\pi-1)\ in^2
