Answer:

No.

Step-by-step explanation:

This type of problem is actually a trick problem. The question indicates that the PRODUCT of 3.93 and 0.07 would be about 4. The question is referring to the answer of the two values Multiplied to each other.

To visualize the question, we have:

3.93 x 0.07

This would give us:

0.2751

Kerri would be correct if she was looking for the SUM of the two values.

This would be:

3.93 + 0.07

This would give us:

Therefore in trick problems like this ones, it is better to look at what exactly is being asked.

Answer:

No, Kerri is not correct because to visualize this question we have 3.93 times 0.07 and this would give us 0.2751. Kerri would be correct if she was looking for the sum of the two numbers.

This was similar to the other person who answered the question but I tried to make it more into a whole paragraph. Hope this helps :)

Hi there! The answer is A. - 22

We can use PEMDAS to find our answer, which says divide first (before adding).

- 24 - 8 : (-4) =

Since we divide two negative numbers, we end up with a positive value.
- 24 + 2 =

Now we can add
-24 + 2 = -22

19. At a boardroom meeting, the sales manager is happy to announce that sales have risen from $850,000 to $1,750,000 at a

klasskru [66]

The number of years it would take sales to reach $1,750,000 is 14.65 years.

<h3>What is the number of years?</h3>

The formula that can be used to determine the number of years it would take for the sales to reach $1,750,000 is:

Number of years : In (FV / PV) / r

Where:

FV = future level of sales - $1,750,000
PV = present level of sales = 850,000
r = rate of growth - 4.931998%

Number of years : In ($1,750,000 / 850,000) / 0.04931998

Number of years : In (2.06) / 0.04931998

Number of years : 14.65 years

Fill in the missing numbers to complete the linear equation that gives the rule for this table.

irakobra [83]

The value of the missing number to complete the linear equation are 31 and -10 respectively.

What is Algebraic expression ?

Algebraic expressions are the idea of expressing numbers using letters or alphabets without specifying their actual values. The basics of algebra taught us how to express an unknown value using letters such as x, y, z, etc. These letters are called here as variables. An algebraic expression can be a combination of both variables and constants. Any value that is placed before and multiplied by a variable is a coefficient.

Here the given tables shows the coordinates of the linear equation and to find the equation we consider any two points let suppose the those two points be (0,-10) and (1,21).

Now using slope formula to find the slope of line m :

m = (y₂-y₁)/ (x₂-x₁)

m = (21-(-10))/(1-0)

m = 31

Let us first find the equation of the line using point-slope equation of line :

(y-y₁) = m(x-x₁)

Substituting all the values in above equation to get the equation of line :

(y-(-10)) = 31(x-0)

(y+10) = 31x

y = 31x - 10

Therefore, the value of the missing number to complete the linear equation are 31 and -10 respectively.
