sashaice [31]3 years ago

first number: x

second number: y

Sum: x + y = -9   ⇒   y = -x - 9

Product: xy = 20  ⇒ x(-x - 9) = 20

                                 -x² - 9x = 20

                                          0 = x² + 9x + 20

                                           0 = (x + 4)(x + 5)

                           0 = x + 4      or     0 = x + 5

                           x = -4           or      x = -5

y = -x - 9  ⇒  y = -(-4) - 9 = -5    or    y = -(-5) - 9 = -4

Answer: -4, -5

Wendy's mother recorded how many donuts she has eaten over the past few months. Jelly-filled donuts 6 maple donuts 53 glazed don
coldgirl [10]

Answer:

P(\text{Powdered sugar donut})=\dfrac{1}{15} .

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that Wendy's mother recorded how many donuts she has eaten over the past few months.

Jelly-filled donuts = 6

Maple donuts = 53  

Glazed donuts = 11  

Powdered sugar donuts = 5

Now,

Total number of donuts = 6 + 53 + 11 + 5 = 75

We need to find the experimental probability that the next donut Wendy eats will be a powdered sugar donut.

P(\text{Powdered sugar donut})=\dfrac{\text{Powdered sugar donuts}}{\text{Total number of donuts}}

P(\text{Powdered sugar donut})=\dfrac{5}{75}

P(\text{Powdered sugar donut})=\dfrac{1}{15}

Therefore, P(\text{Powdered sugar donut})=\dfrac{1}{15}.

The weight, in pounds, of a newborn baby t months after birth can be modeled by W. A graph of W is shown below. Write an equatio
Agata [3.3K]

the First we need to choose two points in the graph

(0,6)=(t1,w1)

(1,7)=(t2,w2)

the variables are t and w

then we can calculate the slope

m=\frac{w2-w1}{t2-t1}=\frac{7-6}{1-0}=\frac{1}{1}=1

the equation of W is

where

m=1 ---> slope

b=6 ---> y-intercept

\begin{gathered} W=mt+b \\ W=1\cdot t+6 \\ W=t+6 \end{gathered}

the answers are

W=t+6

slope of the function 1

the answer is the third option
