500 : 1 expresses the ratio of sheets of paper to reams in simplest form ⇒ D

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is:

  • There are 4000 sheets of paper
  • There are 8 reams

We need to find the ratio between the sheets of paper to the reams in simplest form

∵ The number of the sheets is 4000

∵ The number of the reams is 8

→ sheet  :  ream

→ 4000  :  8

to simplify the ratio divide the two terms by the same number

∵ 4000 ÷ 2 = 2000 and 8 ÷ 2 = 4

∵ 2000 ÷ 2 = 1000 and 4 ÷ 2 = 2

∵ 1000 ÷ 2 = 500 and 2 ÷ 2 = 1

∴ 4000 and 8 can be divided by 8 to get the simplest form

   of the ratio

→ sheet        :  ream

→ 4000 ÷ 8  :  8 ÷ 8

→ 500           :  1

∴ The ratio of sheets to reams is 500 : 1

500 : 1 expresses the ratio of sheets of paper to reams in simplest form

Pls!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!​

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

The table shows a linear function.

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1}  }

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (1, 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (2, 7) ← 2 ordered pairs from the table

m = \frac{7-3}{2-1} = 4, thus

y = 4x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute any ordered pair into the partial equation

Using (1, 3), then

3 = 4 + c ⇒ c = 3 - 4 = - 1

y = 4x - 1 → C

Write an equation that illustrates a number with two decimal places multiplied by a number with one decimal place. The product h
Vilka [71]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number with two decimal places be 1.23

Let the number with one decimal place be 4.5

Then 1.23 multiplied by 4.5

= 1.23 × 4.5

= 5.535

The result has more than two nonzero digits.

Note: When you multiply two decimal numbers, the decimal place(s) of the result is the addition of the decimal places of each of the numbers being multiplied.

Which expression shows the sum of the polynomials with like terms grouped together?
Leto [7]

Answer:

C. (-4x^2)+2xy^2+[10x^2y+(-4x^2y)

Step-by-step explanation:

A. [9-4x2) + (-4x2y) + 10x2y] + 2xy2  : in this polynomial the first term is not a like term, then this is incorrect.

B. 10x2y + 2xy2 + [(-4x2) + (-4x2y)]  : in this polynomial, the terms that are grouped, are not like terms, then is incorrect.

C. (-4x2) + 2xy2 + [10x2y + (-4x2y)]  ; This polynomial is the right answer because the like terms are grouped.

D. [10x2y + 2xy2 + (-4x2y)] + (-4x2): This polynomial is incorrect because one of the terms that are grouped is not a like term.

X + 2y = 10
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

(-12,11)

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 2y = 10

3x + 4y = 8

(-2)x + (-2)2y = (-2)10

3x    + 4y       = 8

-2x - 4y = -20

3x  + 4y = 8

Add to eliminate:

x = -12

Substitute x to solve y:

x + 2y = 10

(-12) + 2y = 10

-12 + 2y = 10

2y = 10 + 12

2y = 22

y = 22 ÷ 2

y = 11

Check:

x + 2y = 10

(-12) + 2(11) = 10

-12 + 22 = 10

10 = 10
