Step-by-step explanation:

Imagine a pizza. If a whole pizza was divided into 3 pieces then the size of the pizzas would be pretty big. But if the pizza was divided into 8 pieces the size of the pizzas would be smaller.

1/8, 1/5, 1/3

Since the numerator is the same you look to the denominator to see which is bigger and smaller. 1/8 is the least because if a pie is cut into 8 pieces and you only get one your piece will be significantly smaller than if it is cut into 3 pieces and you get 1. 1/5 is then in the middle.

Which of the following graphs shows the<br> solution set to 2x < 6 and 3x + 2 ><br> -4?

Ilya [14]

Answer:

The third picture

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x in both equations

2x<6

Divide both sides by 2:

x<3

3x+2>-4

Subtract 2 from both sides:

3x>-6

Divide both sides by 3:

x>-2

There is this trick you can use when x is on the left side of the equation to find out which way to shade in you graph. Keep in mind this is only for the left side, it will not work if your variable is on the right.

When the symbol is facing left < then shade left, imagine it is pointing which way to shade. x<3 is represented by the 3 picture on the left. When the symbol is facing right > then shade right, again it is pointing which way to shade. x>-2 is represented by the 3 picture on the right.

The circles are not filled in because the symbol is < and > rather than $\leq and \geq$ . When it is greater than or equal to or less than and equal to (represented by the line under the symbol), then the circle is shaded in.

The function of the length z in meters of the side parallel to the wall is A(z) = z/2(210 - z)

<h3>How to write a function of the length z in meters of the side parallel to the wall?</h3>

The given parameters are:

Perimeter = 210 meters

Let the length parallel to the wall be represented as z and the width be x

So, the perimeter of the fence is

P = 2x + z

This gives

210 = 2x + z

Make x the subject

x = 1/2(210 - z)

The area of the wall is calculated as

A = xz

So, we have

A = 1/2(210 - z) * z

This gives

A = z/2(210 - z)

Rewrite as

A(z) = z/2(210 - z)

Hence, the function of the length z in meters of the side parallel to the wall is A(z) = z/2(210 - z)

Sean's house is currently worth $188,900. According to a realtor, house prices in Sean's neighborhood will increase by 4.8% ever

mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer

Given

Sean's house is currently worth $188,900.

According to a realtor, house prices in Sean's neighborhood will increase by 4.8% every year.

To prove

Formula

$Compound\quaterly\ interest = Principle (1 + \frac{r}{4})^{4t}$

Where r is the rate in the decimal form.

As given

$Take\ Principle\ = P_{0}$

$Rate = \frac{4.8}{100}$

= 0.048

Put in the formula

$Compound\quaterly\ interest = P_{0}(1 + \frac{0.048}{4})^{4t}$

$Compound\quaterly\ interest = P_{0} (1 + \frac{0.048}{4})^{4t}$

$Compound\quaterly\ interest = P_{0} (1 + 0.012)^{4t}$ $Compound\quaterly\ interest = P_{0} (1.012)^{4t}$

Now also calculated monthly.

Formula

$Compound\ monthly = Principle (1 + \frac{r}{12})^{12t}$

As given

$Take\ Principle\ = P_{0}$

$Rate = \frac{4.8}{100}$

= 0.048

Put in the formula

$Compound\ monthly = P_{0} (1 + \frac{0.048}{12})^{12t}$

$Compound\ monthly = P_{0} (1 + 0.004)^{12t}$

$Compound\ monthly = P_{0} (1.004)^{12t}$

As the approximation quarterly growth rate of the value of sean's house is near the Compounded quarterly interest .

Thus Option (A) is correct.

i.e

The expression $(1.0118)^{4t}$ reveals the approximate quarterly growth rate of the value of Sean's house.

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

$63

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

Keith bought 4 shirts for $36

using proportion

Find out would be the cost for 7 shirts

Let

x ----> the cost for 7 shirts

$\frac{4}{36}\ \frac{shirts}{\$}=\frac{7}{x}\ \frac{shirts}{\$}\\\\x=36(7)/4\\\\x=\$63$
