The answer is D, because the question asks for "...the sum of x and 5..." which means that they want x and 5 to be together, so that eliminates every answer choice except D.

Your question states...

Sixteen -------> 16
divided by -------> /
the sum of x and 5 -----> x+5
is 12 ------> = 12

16/x+5 = 12

Answer D

The reason it is NOT answer A is because is says "divided by the sum of x and 5". In the order of operations, division happens before addition, so if it did not say "the sum of", then 16 divided by x (16/x) would happen before adding 5 (like in answer A). But is says "the sum of" so you have to do the addition first.

The distance between B and C

alina1380 [7]

Answer:

The answer is

<h2> $\sqrt{13} \: \: or \: \: 3.6055 \: \: units$ </h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between two points can be found by using the formula

$d = \sqrt{( {x1 - x2})^{2} + ({y1 - y2})^{2} } \\$

where

(x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) are the points

From the question the points are

B ( 3 , 1 ) and C( 6 , 3)

The distance between them is

$|BC| = \sqrt{( {3 - 6})^{2} + ({1 - 3})^{2} } \\ = \sqrt{ ({ - 3})^{2} + ( { - 2})^{2} } \\ = \sqrt{9 + 4}$

We have the final answer as

$\sqrt{13} \: \: or \: \: 3.6055 \: \: units$

Hope this helps you

at a school there are 10 students taking only chemistry, 9 students taking only physics 5 students taking both, and 16 students

sveticcg [70]

Answer:

If there are 10 students taking only chemistry, 9 students taking only physics, and 5 students only taking both chemisty and 16 students are taking neither; I would add 10+9+5+16=40 (total students) and divide 10/40 (25% chemistry) 9/40 (22.5% physics) 5/40 (12.5% both) 16/40 (40% neither)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Determine a single event with a single outcome.

2. Identify the total number of outcomes that can occur.

3. Divide the number of events by the number of possible outcomes.

A scientist testing the effects of a chemical on apple yield (apples/acre) sprays an orchard with the chemical. A second orchard

JulsSmile [24]

Following are the dependent variables:

<em>1. The amount of water that each orchard receives.</em>

<em>2. The species of trees in the orchard.</em>

Reason:

The exercise scientist is looking for the effects of a chemical between an apple crop to which it is administered and another to which it is not, 4 options are presented, of which it is essential to count as a variable the amount of water each Orchard and tree species in the orchard, since they can generate alterations in the results, the other two variables of the exercise such as number of apples and size of the orchards are not significant and their variations do not affect the scientist's objective.
