Answer: (x%/100%)*3 pounds = M

where x% is the percentage of the 3 pounds of tomatoes that Glenn used.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, i guess that there is a missing percentage here.

Suppose that this percentage is x%

such that:

0% ≤ x% ≤ 100%

Now, the 3 pounds of tomatoes is the 100%.

Then a mass M will correspond to the amount that he used to make the sauce, the x%.

We have the realtion:

100%*M = x%*3pounds

M = (x%/100%)*3 pounds.

Juan cuts a piece of paper in half. he then cuts each half into thirds and each of those pieces into eights. finally, he cuts ea

Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

D: 768

Step-by-step explanation:

First, he divides a piece of paper in half.

$1 \div \frac{1}{2} = 2$

He gets two pieces.

Next, he cuts each of the pieces into three parts.

$2 \div \frac{1}{3} = 6$

Thirdly, he cuts each of the 6 pieces into 8 pieces.

$6 \div \frac{1}{8} = 48$

Lastly, he divides each piece into 16 parts.

$48 \div \frac{1}{16} = 768$

He has 768 pieces in the end. (D)

Which equation is equivalent to log Subscript 3 Baseline (x + 5) = 2?

adell [148]

Answer:

The correct option is right-bracket squared 3 squared =x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is \log _{3}(x+5)=2

Option a: \log _{3}(x+5)=3^{2}

This is not possible because using logarithmic rule, if \log _{a} b=c then b=a^{c}

Hence, option a is not equivalent to \log _{3}(x+5)=2

Option b: \log _{3}(x+5)=2^{3}

This is not possible because using logarithmic rule, if \log _{a} b=c then b=a^{c}

Hence, option b is not equivalent to \log _{3}(x+5)=2

Option c: x+5=3^{2}

This is possible because using logarithmic rule, if \log _{a} b=c then b=a^{c}

Hence, option c is equivalent to \log _{3}(x+5)=2

Option b: x+5=2^{3}

This is not possible because using logarithmic rule, if \log _{a} b=c then b=a^{c}

Hence, option b is not equivalent to \log _{3}(x+5)=2

Thus, the correct option is c: x+5=3^{2}

Hence, the equation x+5=3^{2} is equivalent to \log _{3}(x+5)=2

What is the equation in point-slope form of the line passing through (4, 0) and (2, 6)? (5 points) y = 4x − 2 y = 2x − 4 y = −3(

DIA [1.3K]

For this case we have that by definition, the point-slope equation of a line is given by:

$y-y_ {0} = m (x-x_ {0})$

We have the following points:

$(x_ {1}, y_ {1}) :( 2,6)\\(x_ {2}, y_ {2}) :( 4,0)\\m = \frac {y_ {2} -y_ {1}} {x_ {2} -x_ {1}} = \frac {0-6} {4-2} = \frac {-6} {2} = -3$

We chose a point:

$(x_ {0}, y_ {0}) :( 4,0)$

Substituting in the equation we have:

$y-0 = -3 (x-4)\\y = -3 (x-4)$

Finally, the equation is: $y = -3 (x-4)$

OPTION C
