Hey there! :)

There are 3 pennies
There is a total of 18 coins; 3 + 5 + 4 + 6 = 18

3 ÷ 18 = 0.16666666667 = 0.17

Your answer is 1/6 or 0.17

Hope this helps :)

Which of these people had balanced their checkbook correctly. Gary: the balance in his check register is $500 and the balance in
otez555 [7]

Gary should be the correct choice because when you balance their checkbook correctly you should have a balanced or equal amount in both your check register and your bank statement.

Good luck! Please let me know if I have chosen the wrong answer. All though I am very confident in my answer.

Find an equation for the line with the given properties. Perpendicular to the line x - 6y = 8; containing the point (4,4) O 1) y
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

Option 3 - y=-6x+28

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Perpendicular to the line x - 6y = 8; containing the point (4,4).

To Find : An equation for the line with the given properties ?

Solution :

We know that,

When two lines are perpendicular then slope of one equation is negative reciprocal of another equation.

Slope of the equation x - 6y = 8

Converting into slope form y=mx+c,

Where m is the slope.

y=\frac{x-8}{6}

y=\frac{x}{6}-\frac{8}{6}

The slope of the equation is m=\frac{1}{6}

The slope of the perpendicular equation is m_1=-\frac{1}{m}

The required slope is m_1=-\frac{1}{\frac{1}{6}}

m_1=-6

The required equation is y=-6x+c

Substitute point (x,y)=(4,4)

4=-6(4)+c

4=-24+c

c=28

Substitute back in equation,

y=-6x+28

Therefore, The required equation for the line is y=-6x+28

So, Option 3 is correct.

Consider the quadratic function f(x) = –2x2 5x – 4. the leading coefficient of the function is?
evablogger [386]

Answer:

\text{-2 is the leading coefficient of the quadratic equation }f(x)=-2x^2+5x-4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the quadratic function

f(x)=-2x^2+5x-4

we have to find the leading coefficient of given quadratic equation.

\text{The general form of quadratic equation is }ax^2+bx+c=0

The coefficient of x^2 i.e a is known as the leading coefficient.

Comparing given equation with the standard equation, we get

a=-2

\text{Hence, -2 is the leading coefficient of the quadratic equation }f(x)=-2x^2+5x-4

Answer:

Angle ACD = 38°

Step-by-step explanation:

The full, correct question is presented the attached image to this solution.

Given

Point O is the centre if the circle

Points A, B, C and D are points on the circle

Angle AOB = 140°

Angle OAC = 14°

Angle AOB = 2 × (Angle ACB) [angle subtended at the centre of the circle is twice the angle subtended at the circumference of the circle)

140° = 2 × (Angle ACB)

Angle ACB = (140°/2) = 70°

(Angle AOB) + (Angle OAB) + (Angle ABO) = 180° [sun of angles in a triangle is 180°]

But Angle OAB = Angle ABO = a [base angles of an iscosceles triangle are equal since OA and OB are both radii for the circle O)

(Angle AOB) + (Angle OAB) + (Angle ABO) = 180°

140° + a + a = 180°

2a = 40°

a = (40/2) = 20°

Angle OAB = Angle ABO = 20°

Angle CAB = (Angle OAC) + (Angle OAB) = 14° + 20° = 34°

Triangle ADC is an iscosceles triangle, hence,

Angle DAC = Angle ACD = x [base angles of an iscosceles triangle are equal]

But

(Angle DCB) + (Angle DAB) = 180° [Opposite angles of a cyclic quadilateral (a quadilateral inscribed in a circle) sum up to give 180°]

Angle DCB = (Angle DCA) + (Angle ACB) = (x + 70°)

Angle DAB = (Angle DAC) + (Angle CAB) = (x + 34°)

(Angle DCB) + (Angle DAB) = 180°

(x + 70°) + (x + 34°) = 180°

2x + 104° = 180°

2x = 180° - 104° = 76°

x = (76°/2) = 38°

Angle DAC = Angle ACD = 38°

Angle ACD = 38°

Hope this Helps!!!
