Mickey's bowling score is 167 and Minnie's bowling score is 61

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is:

1. Mickey's bowling score is 16 less than 3 times Minnie's score

2. The sum of their scores is 228

We need to find the score of each one

Assume that the score of Minnie is x

∵ Minnie's score = x

∵ Mickey's score is 16 less than 3 times Minnie's score

- That means subtract 16 from 3 times Minnie's score

∴ Mickey's score = 3 x - 16

∵ The sum of their scores is 228

- Add their scores and equate the sum by 228

∴ x + 3 x - 16 = 228

- Add like terms in the left hand side

∴ 4 x - 16 = 228

- Add 16 for both sides

∴ 4 x = 244

- Divide both sides by 4

∴ x = 61

Substitute the value of x to find their scores

∵ Minnie's score is x

∴ Minnie's score = 61

∵ Mickey's score is 3 x - 16

∴ Mickey's score = 3(61) - 16 = 167

Mickey's bowling score is 167 and Minnie's bowling score is 61

When you are multiplying powers, what are you actually doing with the exponents?

givi [52]

If you have (3^4)^3 then you multiply the two exponents to get 3^12. if you have 3^4 x 3^3 then you add the exponents to get 3^7

Verify the identity. 4 csc 2x = 2 csc2x tan x

vlada-n [284]

Step-by-step explanation:

$4csc(2x) = 2csc^2(x) tan(x)$

We start with Left hand side

We know that csc(x) = 1/ sin(x)

So csc(2x) is replaced by 1/sin(2x)

$4 \frac{1}{sin(2x)}$

Also we use identity

sin(2x) = 2 sin(x) cos(x)

$4 \frac{1}{2sin(x)cos(x)}$

4 divide by 2 is 2

Now we multiply top and bottom by sin(x) because we need tan(x) in our answer

$2\frac{1*sin(x)}{sin(x)cos(x)*sin(x)}$

$2\frac{sin(x)}{sin^2(x)cos(x)}$

$2\frac{1}{sin^2(x)} \frac{sin(x)}{cos(x)}$

We know that sinx/ cosx = tan(x)

Also 1/ sin(x)= csc(x)

so it becomes 2csc^2(x) tan(x) , Right hand side

Hence verified

Which is 2/3 of 18 <br>A. 27<br>B. 8<br>C. 12<br>D. 6

ahrayia [7]

Answer:

C. 12

Step-by-step explanation:

We know you have the number 18 and the fraction 2/3. The problem is we want to find out what 2/3 of 18 is. Well, if 18 divided by the denominator of that fraction (3) is 6 than we just add 6 because the question is asking for 2/3 NOT 1/3.

On a coordinate plane, a curved line crosses the y-axis at (0, 1), crosses the x-axis at (.25, 0), turns at point (2, negative 3

Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

All real numbers greater than or equal to -3

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The curved line could be a vertical parabola opening upwards with vertex at (2,-3)

The vertex is a minimum

The y-intercept is the point (0,1)

The x-intercepts are the points (0.25,0) and (3.75,0)

The domain is the interval -----> (-∞,∞)

All real numbers

The range is the interval ----> [-3,∞)

All real numbers greater than or equal to -3
