To answer this you would need to first find out what 3/8 of the 5/9 would be. 3/8 would be the amount that remains after five eights were accounted for. The question says it is 5/9 of the remaining, and 3/8 of the total would be what remains. Multiply 3/8 by 5/9 to get 5/24. This represents the part that would be green. Then I added the original 5/8 for blueand 5/24 for green. The amount is 20/24, or 5/6. This represents the part that is green or blue. 1/6 would be the other color which is red. To find the total, you would solve 1/6x =48. To solve this divide 48 by 1/6. Keep change and invert your division problem. It would be 48×6. The answer is 288 total votes. You said check your work by multiplying 5/8 by 288. You get 180. 288-180=108. Multiply 5/9 by 108 to get 60. 108-60 is 48!!!

Directions- Write a formula from the given day for each linear function Find the equation of the line parallel to 6x+3y-11=0, th
lukranit [14]

Answer:

y = -3x-1 or 3x + y = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

6x + 3y - 11 = 0 can be written as y = -3x + (11/3)

In parallel lines the slope remains the same but the constant changes. To find the constant you place in the cordinates for x and y.

5 = -3(-2) + b

5 = 6 + b

5 - 6 = b

-1 = b

Now you replace (11/3) by the new b, -1

y = -3x - 1

Select all of the following that are quadratic equations.
kifflom [539]
A quadratic equation is one in which the highest exponent of x is 2.
7x^2+14x=0 is quadratic; the highest exponent is 2.
x³-3x²+1=0 is NOT quadratic.  The highest exponent of x is 3, not 2.
5x-7=0 is NOT quadratic.  The highest exponent of x is 1, not 2.
x²+3x-5=0 is quadratic; the highest exponent of x is 2.
x-5=9x+7 is NOT quadratic.  The highest exponent of x is 1, not 2.
x²-x=3x+7 is quadratic; the highest exponent of x is 2.

Stan worked 4 years less than Marco.This year Stan has worked 29 years.If b is how long Marco worked, the equation b - 4 = 29 re
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

Add 4 on both sides.

In the equation there is a -4.

If -4+4=0, that is how you would get rid of the -4.

But, you need to add 4 to 29 to really get rid of the -4.

So, 29+4 is 33.

b=33

A baby weighs 10 pounds at age 1, and four years latter the child's weight is 42 pounds. Assume that childhood weight W (in poun
Sergeu [11.5K]
In this problem, we have been given that there is a baby and the weight of the baby is £10 at birth and it is observed that after four years. That means when time is four years, the weight of the baby, That is observed to be 40 lb. And here, considering the weight of the baby to be increasing linearly with respect to the time. In years, we have to express this weight in terms of. So as we are given that the weight is a linear function of time teeth. So in that case this is the way by which we say that y is a linear function of X. And instead of X, let's put T here. And instead of white, let's put W to indicate that weight is a linear function of time. And as we are given that at birth, that is a physical 20 years. The way it is £10. So we substitute T. S. Zero and ws £10 in this equation. So we're going to get 10 equals zero times A. That's zero plus be solving this, we're gonna get Bs 10 and putting this value of weight as 40 lb and the time has four years as well In the same equation, we're going to get 40 equals four A plus B. And we already have determined B. Let's put that here and solving this, we're going to get the value of a coming out to be seven point fight. And now let's put the values of A. And B back into this equation of W. So we get ws eight times t. That's 7.5 times T Plus B. That's 10. So this is the expression, in fact, we can say this is the linear expression for W with respect to time.
