Answer:

Option D) 5/21 pizza is left.

Step-by-step explanation:

Bill has 2/3 of his pizza left from lunch. If he eats 3/7 more of pizza then we have calculate the pizza left.

Let the size of a pizza is x. Now 2x/3 pizza is left with Bill after lunch.

Therefore pizza eaten by Bill = x - 2x/3 = x/3

Now Bill eats 3/7 more of pizza has been eaten by Bill.Therefore total pizza left is

x - x/3 - 3x/7 = x(1 - 1/3 - 3/7) = x( 21 - 7 - 9)/21 = 5x/21

So 5/21 part of pizza is left.

What is the radius of a sphere if its surface area is 2,122.64 square inches? (Use 3.14 for π.) 11 in. 13 in. 121 in. 169 in.

crimeas [40]

To solve this, we are going to use the surface are of a sphere formula: $A=4 \pi r^2$
where
$A$ is the surface area of the sphere
$r$ is the radius of the sphere

We know for our problem that $A=2122.64$ and $\pi =3.14$ , so lets replace those vales in our formula:
$A=4 \pi r^2$
$2122.64=4(3.14)r^2$
$2122.64=12.56r^2$
Now, we just need to solve our equation for $r$ :
$\frac{2122.64}{12.56} =r^2$
$r^2=\frac{2122.64}{12.56}$
$r^2=169$
$r=+or- \sqrt{169}$
$r=13$ or $r=13$
Since the radius of a sphere cannot be a negative number, $r=13$ .

We can conclude that the radius of a sphere with surface area 2,122.64 $in^2$ is 13 in.

Mrs. Carter baked 100 muffins for a bake sale. The muffins were sold in packages of 2. There were 12 muffins left. Write an equa

Sindrei [870]

Answer:

2n + 12 = 100 (Equation)
2n = 88 (Solving)
n = 44 people bought muffins at the bake sale. (Solving)

Step-by-step explanation:

100 muffins, and 2 in each package. Therefore, there are 50 packages. However, in the end, there are 12 left, so there must have been 6 packages left.

For the function f(x)=x^2, what effect will multiplying f(x) by 1/2 have on the graph?

erma4kov [3.2K]

For the function f ( x ) = x² we have the new function f 1 ( x ) = 1/2 x².
f ( x ) = a · x²
- If |a| < 1 the graph is compressed vertically by a factor of a.
- If |a| > 1 the graph is stretched vertically by a factor of a.
Here: a = 1/2 < 1
Answer:
C. The graph will be compressed vertically.
