Answer:

(A)x= -8

Step-by-step explanation:

One-fourth x + 2 = \frac{1}{4}x+2

\frac{1}{4}x+2=-\frac{5}{8}x-5

Next, we Expand the Left hand Side by multiplying each term in the bracket by 1/4

\frac{1}{4}x+\frac{2}{4}=-\frac{5}{8}x-5

Bringing terms with x to the left Hand Side i.e. collecting like terms

\frac{1}{4}x+\frac{5}{8}x=-5-2\\\\(\frac{1}{4}+\frac{5}{8})x=-7\\\\\frac{7}{8}x=-7

On Cross multiplying

7x = -7 X 8

x=-\dfrac{7*8}{7}\\

x=-8

Determine the x and y intercepts
kakasveta [241]
Answer:
x-intercepts: (2,0), (4,0)
y-intercepts: (0,-8)

Explanation:
To find the x intercept(s), you must compute where y=0. So solve 0= -x^2 + 6x - 8. So, the x intercepts are: (2,0) and (4,0) since the solutions to the mentioned equation are x=2 and x=4. To find the y intercept(s) compute what is y when x=0. In this case, when x=0, y=-8. So the only y intercept is (0,-8).

The farmer's market sells fruit baskets. Each basket contains 12 apples and 4 pears. Use a to represent the cost of each apple a
romanna [79]

Answer:

a) a x 12

b) p x 4

c) (a x 12) + (p x 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

These are the answers because:

1) Since a is representing the cost of each apple, we have to multiply the a with 12.

2) Since p is representing the cost of each pear, we have to multiply the p with 4.

3) Finally, for c, each basket contains 12 apples and 4 pears. Therefore, we just use our eautions from before and add them which will give you the total cost of one basket.

Hope this helps! :D

35 women's shoes are formal.

52 women's shoes are casual.

The total number of women's shoes is 107.  So the probability that a randomly selected one is casual is:

P = 52/107

P ≈ 48.6%
