Daniel [21]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

x=-\frac{9}{4} \\ or \:\\x = -2\frac{1}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

-2 (x + 1/4)+1=5\\\\-2\left(x+\frac{1}{4}\right)+1=5\\\\\mathrm{Subtract\:}1\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}\\\\-2\left(x+\frac{1}{4}\right)+1-1=5-1\\\\Simplify\\-2\left(x+\frac{1}{4}\right)=4\\\\\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}-2\\\frac{-2\left(x+\frac{1}{4}\right)}{-2}=\frac{4}{-2}\\\\Simplify\\x+\frac{1}{4}=-2\\\\\mathrm{Subtract\:}\frac{1}{4}\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}\\\\x+\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{4}=-2-\frac{1}{4}\\\\Simplify\\x=-\frac{9}{4}\\\\x = -2\frac{1}{4}

Which rigid transformation(s) can map AMNP onto ATSR?
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

Translation means moving the figure horizontally or vertically.

Reflection means flipping across a vertical or a horizontal line.

In the figure we see that we can vertically shift the point P to R down by some units.

Then we see that if we reflect that triangle NMP across the line which joins P & R we get the triangle STR.

So to have triangle MNP map onto to TSR we need to translate & then reflect.

Option C) is the right answer.

4x + 5y = 12 and 3x + 4y = 9.25 . Solve for systems of equations
masha68 [24]

Answer:

y=1

x=7/4

Step-by-step explanation:

4x + 5y = 12

3x + 4y = 9.25

4x + 5y = 12

12x + 16y =37

-12x -15 y =-36

12x + 16y =37

y=1

x=7/4

1/5 of the shoes in a factory are green. If you pick a shoe, replace it, pick another shoe and replace it, and pick a third shoe
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

The probability that none of the three shoes selected are green = 64/125

Step-by-step explanation:

If we have 1/5 of shoes being green, then the number of non-green shoes = 1-1/5 = 4/5

Now, this is a probability with replacement.

probability of the first shoe since it’s not green = 4/5

probability of second shoes since it’s not green = 4/5

probability of third shoe since it’s not green = 4/5

Now, the probability that none of the shoes are green = 4/5 * 4/5 * 4/5 = 64/125
