Parker reviews his homework before he turns it in. When he sees the equation 1.02 divided by 0.6= 0.17, he knows it is wrong. He

says, "Since the divisor is 0.6 I can tell the answer is wrong by comparing the quotient and the dividend"

Answer:

The result of the division of a number by a fraction is larger than the fraction.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here,we note that value Parker divided by 0.6. =1.02

Written down result of the division = 1.02/0.6 = 0.17

However, since the numerator is 1.02, then the result of dividing it by a fraction should yield a higher number instead of 0.17

Therefore we check as follows

1.02/0.6 = 1.7

The error is apparently due to dividing 1.02 by 6 rather than 0.6

Given the function f(x)=4|x-5|+3 for what values of x is f(x)=15
Andreyy89

Answer:

  {2, 8}

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find x for ...

  15 = 4|x -5| +3

  12 = 4|x -5| . . . . subtract 3

  3 = |x -5| . . . . . . divide by 4

  ±3 = x -5 . . . . . . show the meaning of absolute value

  5 ±3 = x = {2, 8} . . . . . add 5

The values of x for which f(x) = 15 are 2 and 8.

jacob just had lunch at a restaurant and leaves a 18% tip. Choose all the expressions that will give his total cost in terms of
Leokris [45]

Answer:

1.18b

Step-by-step explanation:

Jacob had lunch at a restaurant and his bill was b.

Now, Jacob leaves 18% of his bill amount as a tip.

So, the tip amount at the rate of 18% of the bill amount will be \frac{18 \times b}{100} =0.18 \times b

Therefore, the total cost of Jacob for the lunch will be b + 0.18b = 1.18b. (Answer)

Is the ordered pair a solution of y ≥ 2x − 5? a. (3, 1) b. (1, −4)
Deffense [45]

Answer:

a. Yes

b. No

Step-by-step explanation:

To find if an ordered pair is a solution to the inequality, substitute its x and y values for the x and y in the inequality and solve. If the equation is true, then it is a solution. If it is not, then it is not a solution.

1) First, substitute the x and y values of (3, 1) into the inequality. So, substitute 3 for x and 1 for y:

1 \geq 2(3)-5\\1\geq 6-5\\1\geq 1

1 is greater than or equal to 1, so (3,1) is a solution.

2) Second, do the same with the point (1, -4). Substitute 1 for x and -4 for y:

-4\geq 2(1)-5\\\\-4\geq 2-5\\-4\geq -3

However, -4 is not greater than or equal to -3, thus (1, -4) is not a solution.
