Answer:

30 red beads

Step-by-step explanation:

The data collected by Jake shows that there are 1.5 times as many red beads as yellow beads.

Red beads + Yellow beads = 50 beads total:

1.5n            + n = 50, where n represents the number of yellow beads.

Simplifying this equation, we get 2.5n = 50, so that n = 20.

If there are 20 yellow beads, then there must be (50 - 20) red beads, or

30 red beads.

Given right triangle DEF, what is the value of sin(E)?<br> A. 3/5<br> B. 3/4<br> C. 4/5<br> D. 4/3
wariber [46]

Answer: OPTION A.

Step-by-step explanation:

First you must calculate the lenght of the side DF by applying the Pythagorean theorem, as following:

DE=\sqrt{10^{2}-8^{2}}=6

Now you can find sin(E) as you can see below:

sin\alpha=opposite/hypotenuse

Where:

\alpha=E\\opposite=DF=6\\hypotenuse=EF=10

Then:

 sin(E)=6/10

sin(E)=3/5

Rules: (-) plus (-) equals positive.
Anything negative in absolute value will turn positive. Example, | -2 | —> 2

|-4b-8|+|-1 -b^2| +2b^3; b=-2

First step is substituting all the “b” to -2.
|-4(-2) -8| + |-1 -(-2)^2| +2(-2)^3
Then start solving.
|8-8| + |-1 -(4)| +2(-8)
|0| + |-5| -16
0 +5 -16= -11
Answer: -11

while observing the fare meter in a taxi, a student records the following data: reading on taxi fare meter time (minutes) meter
mario62 [17]
(0,5.25)(10,13.75)
slope(m) = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
slope(m) = (13.75 - 5.25) / (10 - 0) = 8.5/10 = 0.85

y = mx + b
(0,5.25)...x = 0 and y = 5.25
slope(m) = 0.85
now we sub, we r looking for b, the y int
5.25 = 0.85(0) + b
5.25 = b

so ur equation is : y = 0.85x + 5.25 or C(t) = 0.85t + 5.25 <==

cost of a 12 min taxi ride.....sub in 12 for t
C(t) = 0.85t + 5.25
C(12) = 0.85(12) +5.25
C(12) = 10.20 + 5.25 = 15.45 
so a 12 min ride would cost u : $ 15.45 <==

Please help me Solve -2a -5&gt;3
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

a < -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write out inequality

-2a - 5 > 3

Step 2: Add 5 to both sides

-2a > 8

Step 3: Divide both sides by -2

a < -4

Here, we can see that any value of <em>a </em>less than -4 works. So <em>a</em> could be -124 or -5, or even -1271293587923857 and it would work.
