If 1/5 of the cards are hockey cards, there are 2 hockey cards. if he wants to double that amount, he would multiply it by 2, so 2•2=4. The fraction of hockey cards is now is 2/5.
Answer: 
Each term is half of the previous one, so the common ratio is 1/2. Then to get from the first term to the nth term, you have to take n - 1 steps, multiplying by 1/2 each time and by 6000 to account for the first term.
i hope this helps! :D
Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
0 = –x^2 + 4x – 2
This is of the form
ax^2 +bx +c
a = -1 b = 4 x = -2
The discriminant is
b^2 -4ac
4^2 - 4(-1)(-2)
16 - 8

Answer:
40 km on the highway
30 km on the city roads
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = highway
Let y = city road
The time formula: time = distance / speed.
1) Since we do not know the distance travelled on the highway and city roads but we do know the total time taken, we can say x + y = 70. Set the distances x and y and all equated to 2 hours, since we do not know them, nor do we know the time. This is called a system of equations.
x + y = 70
x/80 + y/20 = 2
2) Solve the system of equations using substitution.
x = 70 - y
---------------
70 - y/80 + y/20 = 2
70 + 3y/80 = 2
y = 30
---------------------------------
x + 30 = 70
x = 70 - 30
x = 40
Therefore, the delivery truck travelled 40 km on the highway and 30 km on the city roads.
Answer:
Red apples get their color from anthocyanins. These are pigments, or natural colorings, that develop as the apple grows. It absorbs all the colors of the rainbow—except for red. The red light reflects off the apple and our brain and eyes work together to let us know what color we are seeing
Step-by-step explanation:
The first part of the question does not correlate to the final question the problem is asking. Therefore, we just need to find out why apples are red. A simple google search can tell you why ^^
