Answer:

Larger number: 38

Smaller number: 19

Step-by-step explanation:

We have two numbers, the smaller number (we will call it x), and the larger number (we will call it y).

We know that y is twice x, so we can write it like:

y = 2x

We also know that if we subtract y minus 12 the result is 7 more than x; wee can write this as:

y-12=x+7

With these two equations, we can substitute y and we get:

<em>2x - 12 = x+7</em>

Now we solve:

<em>2x - x = 7 + 12</em>

x = 19<em> the smaller number is 19</em>

Now we solve for the larger number:

<em>y = 2x</em>

<em>y = 2*19</em>

y=38 <em>The larger number is 38</em>

Which statement is true about the end behavior of the graphed function?
tatyana61 [14]

The <em><u>correct answer</u></em> is:

A) as the x-values go to positive infinity, the functions values go to negative infinity.  

Explanation:

We can see in the graph that the right hand portion continues downward to negative infinity.  The right hand side of the graph is "as x approaches positive infinity," since x continues to grow larger and larger.  This means as x approaches positive infinity, the value of the function approaches negative infinity.

I don't get this pls help
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

  d, e

Step-by-step explanation:

The applicable rules of exponents are ...

  (a^b)(a^c) = a^(b+c)

  a^-b = 1/a^b

__

In this case, it means the product is ...

  (6^1)(6^0)(6^-3) = 6^(1+0-3) = 6^-2 = 1/6^2 = 1/36

__

The 6 without an exponent is equivalent to 6^1, an exponent of 1.

The sum of the exponents is -2.

Add the exponents to simplify the expression.

The value of the expression is 1/36.

An equivalent is any expression that results in 6^-2. One such is (6^5)(6^-7).

__

Only the last two choices, d and e, apply.

Boyd grows only tomatoes and raspberries in his garden. Last year, he grew 140 pounds of tomatoes and 60 pounds of raspberries.
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

29%.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Boyd grew 140 pounds of tomatoes and 60 pounds of raspberries. This year, the production, by weight, of tomatoes declined by 20 percent, and the production, be weight, of raspberries declined by 50 percent.

First of all, we will find the weight of tomatoes and raspberries using the given information.

Since the production, by weight, of tomatoes declined by 20 percent, so this year production of tomatoes is 80% of 140 pounds.

\frac{80}{100}\times 140=0.80\times 140=112

Since the production, be weight, of raspberries declined by 50 percent, so this year production of raspberries is 50% of 30 pounds.

\frac{50}{100}\times 60=0.50\times 60=30

Total production this year: 112+30=142 pounds.

Now, we will percent decrease formula.

\text{Percent decrease}=\frac{\text{Initial value-Final value}}{\text{Initial value}}\times 100

\text{Percent decrease}=\frac{(140+60)-142}{140+60}\times 100

\text{Percent decrease}=\frac{(200)-142}{200}\times 100

\text{Percent decrease}=\frac{58}{200}\times 100

\text{Percent decrease}=0.29\times 100

\text{Percent decrease}=29

Therefore, the total yield, by weight, of Boyd's garden declined by 29%.
