Answer:

150

Step-by-step explanation:

Anagha's mother bought an equal number of ladoos and pedas. Let there are x number of ladoos and pedas.

She puts x/3 of the ladoos and x/5 of the pedas into a packet and gave it to Anagha to distribute at school.

Total no of sweets in the packet = 80

\dfrac{x}{3}+\dfrac{x}{5}=80\\\\\dfrac{5x+3x}{15}=80\\\\\dfrac{8x}{15}=80\\\\x=\dfrac{80\times 15}{8}\\\\x=150

So, there are 150 ladoos brought by Anagha's mother.

A flagpole casts a shadow of 30 ft. A boy standing next to the flagpole casts a shaow of 9ft. What is the height of the flagpole
morpeh [17]
20 ft because the shadow would be 3/2 of the height. 9 is 3/2 of 6 so the height would be 20 bc 30 is 3/2 of 20

8 less than 1/3 a number n is -13
AysviL [449]
Let's set up an equation.

so we know the answer is -13.
1/3 of a number (our variable) can be written as 1/3n.
8 less than that would be subtracting 1/3n by 8

so we have -13 = 1/3n - 8.

To solve:
Add 8 to both sides: -5 = 1/3n
Multiply both sides by 3 (to cancel fraction): -15 = n

You can check by plugging -15 into the equation we made.

oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

$695.94

Step-by-step explanation:

25% of 856 = 214

6.3% of 856 = 53.928

856 + 53.928 = 909.928

909.928 - 214 = 695.928 about 695.94

Given the functions: f(x) = x^2-9 and g(x) = 3 what is (f/g)(x)? A. x-3 B. x-9 C. x+3 D. x+9
uysha [10]

Answer:

f + g)(x) = f (x) + g(x)

= [3x + 2] + [4 – 5x]

= 3x + 2 + 4 – 5x

= 3x – 5x + 2 + 4

= –2x + 6

(f – g)(x) = f (x) – g(x)

= [3x + 2] – [4 – 5x]

= 3x + 2 – 4 + 5x

= 3x + 5x + 2 – 4

= 8x – 2

(f × g)(x) = [f (x)][g(x)]

= (3x + 2)(4 – 5x)

= 12x + 8 – 15x2 – 10x

= –15x2 + 2x + 8

\left(\small{\dfrac{f}{g}}\right)(x) = \small{\dfrac{f(x)}{g(x)}}(

g

f

)(x)=

g(x)

f(x)

= \small{\dfrac{3x+2}{4-5x}}=

4−5x

3x+2

My answer is the neat listing of each of my results, clearly labelled as to which is which.

( f + g ) (x) = –2x + 6

( f – g ) (x) = 8x – 2

( f × g ) (x) = –15x2 + 2x + 8

\mathbf{\color{purple}{ \left(\small{\dfrac{\mathit{f}}{\mathit{g}}}\right)(\mathit{x}) = \small{\dfrac{3\mathit{x} + 2}{4 - 5\mathit{x}}} }}
