Let the number of cookies that kate eats be ‘n’
kate : n
nacy : 2n-4
avery : 2(2n-4)

n + 2n-4 + 2(2n+4) = 18
7n - 12 = 16
7n = 28
n = 4

kate : 4
nacy : 2x4 - 4 = 4
avery : 2(2x4 - 4) =8

A line segment has endpoints at (–1, 4) and (4, 1). Which reflection will produce an image with endpoints at (–4, 1) and (–1, –4
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:- A reflection of the line segment across the line y = –x .


Explanation:-

A reflection over the line y = -x, the x-coordinate and y-coordinate interchange their places and they are negated (the signs are changed).

Given :- A line segment has endpoints at (–1, 4) and (4, 1) such that it reflects produce an image with endpoints at (–4, 1) and (–1, –4).

(-1, 4)→(-4, 1) and

(4, 1)→(-1, -4)

Thus this shows a reflection of the line segment across the line y = –x.

  • P = Present population
  • R = rate of growth of the population
  • N = number of years

1500 x (1.03)^7 = 1845

Does choosing a blue marble represent the complement event of choosing a red marble? Explain.
Arada [10]

Answer:

Below is the sample response

Step-by-step explanation:

The complementary event for choosing a red marble is choosing a blue or purple. The total number of marbles is 5. The probability of choosing a red marble is 1/5, and the complement would be 4/5. That is not the same as choosing a blue marble.
