Answer:

lost 150

Step-by-step explanation:

X = Dante's pennies

Y = Mia's pennies

X + Y = 350                                       1/2 X = 2/3 Y

                                                               X = 4/3 Y

4/3 Y + Y = 350

7/3 Y = 350

Y = 350 * 3/7

Y = 50 * 3

Y = 150

X + 150 = 350

X = 200

                                                    1/2 * 200 = 2/3 * 150

                                                      100 .      =   100

Answer:

Altogether they lost 150 pennies.

Step-by-step explanation:

X = Dante's pennies

Y = Mia's pennies

X + Y = 350                                       1/2 X = 2/3 Y

                                                                X = 4/3 Y

4/3 Y + Y = 350

7/3 Y = 350

Y = 350 * 3/7

Y = 50 * 3

Y = 150

X + 150 = 350

X = 200

                                                     1/2 * 200 = 2/3 * 150

                                                       100 .      =   100

1/2 * 200 = 100 -> Dante lost 100 pennies

1/3 * 150 = 50 -> Mia lost 50 pennies

Altogether they lost 150 pennies.

Find the area of a circle with a radius of 2.5 inches. round to the nearest tenth. use 3.14 for pi.
nignag [31]

Answer:

a=19.6 inches^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a circle can be found using

a=πr^2

We know the radius is 2.5, so we can substitute it in for r

We can also substitute 3.14 in for π

a=(3.14)*(2.5^2)

a=(3.14)*(6.25)

a=19.625

Round to the nearest tenth

a=19.6 inches^2

Find the slope of the described line by x - 6y = -12​
Simora [160]

Answer:

Slope <em>m</em> = 1/6

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Pre-Algebra</u>

  • Equality Properties

<u>Algebra I</u>

Standard Form: Ax + By = C

Slope-Intercept Form: y = mx + b

  • m - slope
  • b - y-intercept

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

x - 6y = -12

<u>Step 2: Rearrange</u>

<em>Find slope-intercept form.</em>

  1. Subtract <em>x</em> on both sides:                    -6y = -x - 12
  2. Divide -6 on both sides:                      y = 1/6x + 2

<u>Step 3: Break Function</u>

<em>Identify Parts.</em>

Slope <em>m</em> = 1/6

y-intercept <em>b </em>= 2

What is the rate of change and initial value for the linear relation that includes the points shown in the table?
uysha [10]
X   1 2 3
y 10 8 6
So find the slope m:  (6-10)/(3-1) = -4/2 = -2
Going backwards when x = 0, y will be 12 (you can see this)
So
<span>Initial value: 12, rate of change: −2
