A. The number of 10-boards Peter bought is equal to n divided by 10. Then, each of the 10-boxes will get two boxes of nails. The number of boxes of nails that Peter will have after buying n boards will be,

    N = (2)(n/10)

Simplifying,

<em>   N = n/5</em>

b. If the number of boards are 90 then,

     N2 = (90/10)(2)(100 nails/box)
     N2 = 1800

Answer: 1800

The exact answer is:

The algebraic expression n/10, where n is the number of boards, represents the number of times he gets 2 free boxes of nails. So 2(n/10), or n/5, is the number of boxes, and 100(n/5), or 20n, is the number of nails. Substituting 90 in for n,

If the factors of function f are (x - 6) and (x - 1), what are the zeros of function f?
lidiya [134]
X=6 and x=1

You can find your zeros by determining what you have to plug into the function in order for it to equal zero

If we plug in 6, for example we’d get (6-6)(x-1)

Simplified this is 0(x-1)

Anything times 0 is 0, so this is one of our zeros.

Same goes for x-1, we just need to plug in 1 for it to equal 0

Therefore there are zeros at x=1 and x=6 :))

Which statements are true regarding the rotational symmetry of the shape of a cross? Select three options.
Inga [223]

Answer:

The correct options are;

1) The shape maps unto itself after a rotation of 270 degrees

2) The smallest angle of rotational symmetry is 90 degrees

3) The shape maps unto itself after a rotation of 180 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

We note that the shape of a cross which consists of two equal members (segments) bisecting each other at right angles such that when a member is placed vertically upright, the other member will be horizontal, therefore we have;

After rotation by 90 degrees, the vertical member will become horizontal and vice versa

After rotation by 180 degrees, the vertical member will become horizontal and vice versa again

Similarly, after rotation by 270  degrees, the once vertical member will become horizontal and the horizontal member will become vertical

Yuri’s sister Karina is 12 years old. In the equation below, y represents Yuri’s age in years.
OLga [1]
In the given equation above, it can be deduced that 2 subtracted from 3 times Yuri's age is equal to the age of Karina which was given to be twelve. This statement is similar to that which is given in the choice number four. Thus, the answer is D.
