Answer:

60 Possible meals

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 5 possible choices for the first item (salads).

Let's pretend you choose the House Salad.

What are all the possible choices you have for entree and dessert combinations?

12.

Simply add up the possible choices you have for entree/dessert combinations across Salads (this is the definition of multiplication).

So 5 x 12 = 60.

Hope this helped! ;)

Quadrilateral ABCD is inscribed in a circle with angle measures m∠A = (11x − 8)°, m∠B = (3x2 + 1)°, m∠C = (15x + 32)°, and m∠D =

dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

No for all of the 4 values

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the internal angles of a quadrilateral is always 360°, so we have that:

m∠A + m∠B + m∠C + m∠D = 360

11x - 8 + 3x2 + 1 + 15x + 32 + 2x2 - 1 = 360

5x2 + 26x - 320 = 0

Solving the quadratic function using Bhaskara's formula, we have:

Delta = 26^2 + 4*5*320 = 7076

sqrt(Delta) = 84.12

x1 = (-26 + 84.12)/10 = 5.81

x2 = (-26 - 84.12)/10 = -11.01 (this value will generate negative angles, so it is not valid).

Now, finding the angles, we have:

m∠A = 11*5.81 - 8 = 55.91°

m∠B = 3*(5.81)^2 + 1 = 102.27°

m∠C = 15*5.81 + 32 = 119.15°

m∠D = 2*(5.81)^2 - 1 = 66.51°

As all these values are different from the values shown, the answer is No for all of them.

Answer:

$\text{Average rate}=\frac{\text{40 laps}}{\text{ hour}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Please consider the complete question.

Sebastian swan laps every day in the community swimming pool. He swam 45 minutes each day, 5 days each week, for 12 weeks. In that time, he swam 1800 laps. What was his average rate in laps per hour?

Let us convert time taken into hours as:

$\text{Days}=5\times 12=60$

$\text{Minutes}=60\times 45$

1 hour = 60 minutes. To convert minutes into hours, we will divide total minutes by 60.

$\text{Hours}=\frac{60\times 45}{60}=45$

Now, we will divide 1800 by 45 to find average rate in laps per hour as:

$\text{Average rate}=\frac{\text{1800 laps}}{\text{45 hours}}$

$\text{Average rate}=\frac{\text{40 laps}}{\text{ hour}}$

Therefore, Sebastian's average rate is 40 laps per hour.

Alborosie

X + y = 2 —> y = 2 - x
insert to first equation
2-x=x^2-3x-6
x^2 - 3x - 6 - 2 + x = 0
x^2 - 2x - 8 = 0
(x-4)(x+2) = 0
x = 4 or x = -2
