Saying m is multiple choice questions, that equation would be:
14m+24=16m+14
subtract the 14 from each side to get:
14m+10=16m
subtract the 14m from each side to get:
10=2m
divide each side by 2 to get the answer:
5=m
multiple choice questions are worth 5 points.

Find the fractional part of a circle corresponding to 144 degrees
ruslelena [56]
<span>If you change the percentage to a decimal fraction then Multiply 360 *the number of degrees in a circle* by the decimal fraction. The result is the angle measure of your pie slice For example, 10% would be a 36 degree angle. 25% would be a 90 degree angle. 17.5% would be 360 times .175 = 63 degrees</span>

i need help asa!! . f(x) = 4x + 6 g(x) = 2x + 10 At what input would both functions produce the same output?
adelina 88 [10]

x = 2

solve 4x + 6 = 2x + 10

subtract 2x from both sides

2x + 6 = 10

subtract 6 from both sides

2x = 10 - 6 = 4

divide both sides by 2

x = \frac{4}{2} = 2

as a check f(2) =(4 × 2 )+ 6 = 14 and g(2) =( 2× 2) + 10 = 14

PLEASE HELP!!!

<h3>Answer: B. About 93%</h3>

You have the correct answer.

=======================================================

Explanation:

Focus solely on the "in anime club" row. We do this because of the phrasing "given the student is in the anime club". We know for a fact that whoever is randomly picked, they are in the anime club. So we don't have to worry about other data values in the other rows.

Divide the value 0.13 which is in the "takes Japanese" column over 0.14, which is in the "total" column.

Basically we're computing P(A|B) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(B)} where A and B represent the events "takes Japanese" and "in anime club" respectively. The upside down U symbol represents intersection to indicate both events are happening at the same time.

So we end up with 0.13/0.14 = 0.92857142857142 which rounds to 0.93, then that converts to 93% when you move the decimal point over to the right two spots.

When a sprinkler is installed in the ground, the spray of water goes up and falls in the pattern of a parabola. The height, in i
Westkost [7]

Answer:

(1) 256 inches

(2) 5 feet

(3) 400 inches

(4) 10 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

(1) The function that gives the height in inches of the spray of water at a distance <em>x</em> from the sprinkler head is given as follows;

h(x) = 160·x - 16·x²

At x = 2 feet, we have;

h(2) = 160 × 2 - 16 × 2² = 256

Therefore, the height of the spray water at a horizontal distance of 2 feet from the sprinkler head h(2) = 256 inches

(2) The x-coordinate, x_{max}, of the maximum point of a parabola given in the form, y = a·x² + b·x + c is found using the following formula;

x_{max} = -b/(2·a)

The x-coordinate, x_{max}, of the maximum point of the given equation of the parabola, h(x) = 160·x - 16·x², (a = -16, b = 160) is therefore;

x_{max} = -160/(2 × (-16)) = 5

Therefore, the number of feet along the way, the function will reach maximum height, x_{max} = 5 feet

(3) The function, h(x) = 160·x - 16·x², will reach maximum height, h_{max}, at x = 5, therefore;

h_{max} =  h(5) = 160 × 5 - 16 × 5² = 400

The maximum height of the spray, h_{max} = 400 inches

(4) The water is at ground level where h(x) = 0, therefore;

At ground level, h(x) = 0 = 160·x - 16·x²

160·x - 16·x² = 0

∴ 16·x × (10 - x) = 0

By zero product rule, we 16·x = 0, or (10 - x)  = 0, from which we have;

x = 0, or x = 10

The water is at ground level at x = 0 and x = 10 feet, therefore, the water will hit the ground again (the second time after leaving the sprinkler head at x = 0) at x = 10 feet.
