So first you would have to do is read the problem carefully and understand what it's asking you and what I mean is look for some clues that would help you to solve the problem. For instance, the word fewer is a good word to help us because the word fewer means less or taking away and so what that tells us is, what we have to do is subtract 1089 points from 14370 points they want to know how many points did Amy scored and so in order to do that we need to subtract and so our final answer would be 13281 as our final answer and so thank you for this question and keep in mind that you always have to read the question carefully in order to understand. So Amy scored 13281 in the game. Have a blessed day.

I don't know what you mean by "Broken apart," but I'll do my best...

20 x 90 = 1800

9 x 7 = 63

1800 + 63 = 1863

I hope this helped you! :)

Find the missing segment

patriot [66]

Answer: x=49
Step by step explanation: to find one of the sides just subtract 35 from 60, then you get 35/25=x/35, which is 25x=1225, the last step is to divide both sides by 25 and you get the final result of 49

Find the first four terms of the recursive sequence defined by the following formula: an = an-1 4 where a4 = 2 1 4 , , , 2 1 4.

Elina [12.6K]

The first four-term of the sequence is found by the given equation $a_{n-1} = 4a_n$ is given as 144, 36, 9, and 9/4.

<h3>What is a sequence?</h3>

A sequence is a list of elements that have been ordered in a sequential manner, such that members come either before or after.

The given equation will be

$\rm a_n = \dfrac{a_{n-1}}{4} \\\\a_{n-1} = 4a_n$

And

$a_4 = 2 \dfrac{1}{4} = \dfrac{9}{4}$

For n = 4, we have

$\rm a_{4-1} = 4a_4\\\\a_3 \ \ \ = 4*\dfrac{9}{4} \\\\ a_3 \ \ \ = 9$

For n = 3, we have

$\rm a_{3-1} = 4a_3\\\\a_2 \ \ \ = 4*9 \\\\ a_2 \ \ \ = 36$

For n = 2, we have

$\rm a_{2-1} = 4a_2\\\\a_1 \ \ \ = 4*36 \\\\ a_1 \ \ \ = 144$

The open tray shown in the illustration is to be manufactured from a 18-by-19-inch rectangular sheet of metal by cutting squares

defon

Answer: You should cut out squares that are 4 inches by 4 inches.

One of the ways to do this problem is write and graph an equation. We can write an equation for the volume of this shape and then use a graphing calculator to graph it. If we look where the graph crosses 440, we will have our solution.

The volume needs to be 440. If we let x equal the side of the square that is cut out, we have the following dimensions.

Length = 19 - 2x
Width = 18 - 2x
Height = x

Volume = LWH

So our equation could be: y = (19 - 2x)(18 - 2x)x

If you graph that equation, it will intersect at the point (4, 440). Therefore, our square could be 4 by 4 inches.

Solve the simultaneous equations<br> x-6y=5<br> xy - 2y2 = 6<br> -<br> Show clear algebraic working.

mojhsa [17]

Answer:

(- 7, - 2 ) , (9.5, 0.75 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equations

x - 6y = 5 ( add 6y to both sides )

x = 5 + 6y → (1)

xy - 2y² = 6 → (2)

Substitute x = 5 + 6y into (2)

(5 + 6y)y - 2y² = 6 ← distribute and rearrange left side

5y + 6y² - 2y² = 6

4y² + 5y = 6 ( subtract 6 from both sides )

4y² + 5y - 6 = 0 ← in standard form

(y + 2)(4y - 3) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for y

y + 2 = 0 ⇒ y = - 2

4y - 3 = 0 ⇒ 4y = 3 ⇒ y = $\frac{3}{4}$ = 0.75

Substitute these values into (1) for corresponding values of x

y = - 2 : x = 5 + 6(- 2) = 5 - 12 = - 7 ⇒ (- 7, - 2 )

y = 0.75 : x = 5 + 6(0.75) = 5 + 4.5 = 9.5 ⇒ (9.5, 0.75 )
