Answer:

(D) 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Prudence has 12 pairs of gold earrings and 12 pairs of silver earrings.

Total Number of Earrings =12+12=24

Relative Frequency of Picking a Gold Earrings =12/24= 0.5

If she randomly pulls six pairs of earrings out of the drawer to take with her on a trip

Number of Possible Outcome =Relative Frequency X Number of Trials

=0.5 X 6

=3

She would most likely take 3 gold earrings.

If the mass of a material is 49 grams and the volume of the material is 7 cm^3, what would the density of the material be?
inysia [295]
The equation for density is:
density =  \frac{mass}{volume}

To help you remember - my teacher told us to remember "We <span>♡ density," and the heart stands for </span>\frac{m}{v}, or \frac{mass}{volume}. Cheesy, but it works!<span>
</span>
Back to the problem:
We know the mass if 49g and the volume is 7 cm^{3}, so plug these values into the equation for density:
density = \frac{mass}{volume}\\&#10;density = \frac{49\:g}{7\:cm^{3}} \\&#10;density = 7\:g/cm^{3}

Answer: The density is 7 g/cm^{3}

What’s the vertex form of F(x)=x^2+2x-3
kupik [55]

Answer:

\large\boxed{f(x)=(x+1)^2-4}

Step-by-step explanation:

\text{The vertex form of a quadratic equation}\ f(x)=ax^2+bx+c:\\\\f(x)=a(x-h)^2+k\\\\(h,\ k)-\text{vertex}\\=====================================

\bold{METHOD\ 1:}\\\\\text{convert to the perfect square}\ (a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2\qquad(*)\\\\f(x)=x^2+2x-3=\underbrace{x^2+2(x)(1)+1^2}_{(*)}-1^2-3\\\\f(x)=(x+1)^2-4\\==============================

\bold{METHOD\ 2:}\\\\\text{Use the formulas:}\ h=\dfrac{-b}{2a},\ k=f(k)\\\\f(x)=x^2+2x-3\to a=1,\ b=2,\ c=-3\\\\h=\dfrac{-2}{2(1)}=\dfrac{-2}{2}=-1\\\\k=f(-1)=(-1)^2+2(-1)-3=1-2-3=-4\\\\f(x)=(x-(-1))^2-4=(x+1)^2-4

Describe how you would find
cestrela7 [59]
Well if it’s volume just multiply all the numbers together so 8x5= 40x3=120 so the answer would be 120
