32 /4 =8 

so I would say that 64 would be your greatest area because 8 squared is 64

adelina 88 [10]

8 employees exercise at least three times a week

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

At the office where Mika works 41% of the 19 employees exercise at least three times a week

To find: Number of people who exercise at least three times a week

From given information,

Total employees = 19

Employees exercise at least three times a week = 41 % of total employees

Therefore, we have to evaluate 41 % of 19

Number of people exercise at least three times week = 41 % of 19

\rightarrow 41 \% \text{ of } 19 = 41 \% \times 19\\\\\rightarrow 41 \% \times 19 = \frac{41}{100} \times 19 = 0.41 \times 19\\\\\rightarrow 41 \% \times 19 = 0.41 \times 19 = 7.79 \approx 8

Thus approximately 8 employees exercise at least three times a week

For what value of “a”are the graphs of 5y = -2x + 10 and 3y = aX- 15 parallel
Pie

Answer:

a = -6/5

Step-by-step explanation:

For the graphs to be parallel the graphs should have same slope(m)

So we rewrite both our equations in the slope-intercept form then compare the slope to find the value of a like this,

y=mx+b

This equation is the slope-intercept form we convert both our equations in this form firstly taking equation 1

5y=-2x+10\\\\y=\frac{-2x+10}{5} \\\\y=\frac{-2}{5}x+\frac{10}{5} \\\\y=\frac{-2}{5}x+2

so if we compare it with y = mx + b the coefficient of x is m and hence

m= -2/5 now solving for equation 2

3y=ax-15\\\\y=\frac{ax-15}{3} \\\\y=\frac{ax}{3}-\frac{15}{3}  \\\\y=\frac{a}{3}x-5\\\\

so here if we compare it with y = mx + b the coeffienct of x is a/3 so since parallel lines have same slope by the formula:

m_1=m_2

we equation both the slope to each other to find the value of a like this,

m_1=m_2\\\\\frac{-2}{5}=\frac{a}{3}\\\\-2(3)=a(5)\\\\-6=5a\\-6/5=a

so the value of a equals

a= -6/5

Write and solve an equation for the following.
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

4+ \frac{1}{2}x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

4 + \frac{1}{2}x = 3 (subtract 4 from both sides)

\frac{1}{2}x = -1 (multiply both sides by 2)

x = -2

DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW TO DO THIS???
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

Cost of a pound of chocolate chips: $3.5

Cost of a pound of walnuts: $1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

x - cost of a pound of chocolate chips

y - cost of a pound of walnuts

We create two equations based on the information we have:

3x+2y=13

8x+4y=33

The whole point of these problems os to get rid of x or y. In this question, we can do this by multiplying both sides of the first equation by 2, and then subtracting it from the second equation:

8x+4y=33

6x+4y=26

2x=7

x=3.5

Then we change x for 3.5 in the first equation:

3×3.5+2y=13

10.5+2y=13

2y=2.5

y=1.25

Hope this helps!
