Which statements about the values of 4.099 and 40.99 are true? Select all that apply. 4.099 is 110 of 40.99. 4.099 is 1100 of 40
liraira [26]

Answer:

40.99 is 10 times more than 4.099

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the values :

4.099 and 40.99

4.099 is 110 of 40.99 : 110 * 40.99 = 4508.9 (false)

4.099 is 1100 of 40.99 : 1100 * 40.99 = 45089 (false)

40.99 is 10 times more than 4.099 : (10 * 4.099) = 40.99 (true)

40.99 is 100 times more than 4.099 : (100 * 4.099) = 409.9 ( false)

4.099 is 10 times more than 40.99 : (10 * 40.99) = 409.9 (false)

Please help I think these are the right answers!!!
Papessa [141]

We performed the following operations:

f(x)=\sqrt[3]{x}\mapsto g(x)=2\sqrt[3]{x}=2f(x)

If you multiply the parent function by a constant, you get a vertical stretch if the constant is greater than 1, a vertical compression if the constant is between 0 and 1. In this case the constant is 2, so we have a vertical stretch.

g(x)=2\sqrt[3]{x}\mapsto h(x)=-2\sqrt[3]{x}=-g(x)

If you change the sign of a function, you reflect its graph across the x axis.

h(x)=-2\sqrt[3]{x}\mapsto m(x)=-2\sqrt[3]{x}-1=h(x)-1

If you add a constant to a function, you translate its graph vertically. If the constant is positive, you translate upwards, otherwise you translate downwards. In this case, the constant is -1, so you translate 1 unit down.

A software company keeps a ratio of 2.5 testers to every 10 software developers. If the company hires 20 developer in one year,
pochemuha

Answer:

They will need to hire 5 testers.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question can be solved using a simple rule of three.

For each 10 developers, we need 2.5 testers. So how many testers are needed for 20 developers?

10 developers - 2.5 testers

20 developers - x testes

10x = 20*2.5

10x = 50

x = \frac{50}{10}

x = 5

They will need to hire 5 testers.
