Any help at all would be deeply appreciated. i am DESPERATE

You collect 140 total pieces of candy trick or treating and 35 of them are m&m's. What fraction of the candy is not m&m'

tekilochka [14]

$\frac{3}{4}$ of the candy is not m&m's.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Total pieces of candy = 140

Number of m&m's = 35

Fraction = $\frac{Number\ of\ m&m}{Total\ pieces\ of\ candy}$

Fraction = $\frac{35}{140}$

Both 35 and 140 are multiples of 7, therefore,

Fraction of m&m's = $\frac{5}{20} = \frac{1}{4}$

As the number of m&m's fraction and not m&m's fraction will make a total of 1, therefore

fraction of m&m's + fraction of not m&m's = 1

fraction of not m&m's = 1 - fraction of m&m's

fraction of not m&m's = $1-\frac{1}{4}=\frac{4-1}{4}$

fraction of not m&m's = $\frac{3}{4}$

$\frac{3}{4}$ of the candy is not m&m's.

If you shift the linear parent function, f(x) = x, up 6 units, what is the equation of the new function?

Annette [7]

To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

1. You have the following parent function given in the problem above: $f(x)=x$

2. If you want to shift this parent function up six units, you only have the add a $6$ , then, you will obtain the following new function:

$g(x)=x+6$

Therefore, as you can see, the answer is: $g(x)=x+6$

PLEASEEEE HELPPPPPPPPPPP

Answer:

The correct option is first graph.

Therefore,

The two points for the line y+5=-2(x-4) ( red color )line are

point A( x₁ , y₁) ≡ ( 0 , 3) .......Blue color

point B( x₂ , y₂) ≡ $(\dfrac{3}{2},0)$ ............Green color

The Graph is attached below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

$y+5=-2(x-4)$

Which can also be written as

$y=-2x+8-5\\y=-2x+3$ .....Equation of line

Let the points be point A, and point B

To Find:

point A( x₁ , y₁) ≡ ?

point B( x₂ , y₂) ≡ ?

Solution:

For Drawing a graph we require minimum two points but we will have here three points.

For point A( x₁ , y₁)

Put x = 0 in the given equation we get

y = -2 × 0 +3

y =3

∴ y = 3

∴ point A( x₁ , y₁) ≡ ( 0 , 3)

For point B( x₂ , y₂)

Put y = 0 in the given equation we get

0 = -2x + 3

$x=\dfrac{3}{2}$

∴ point B( x₂ , y₂) ≡ $(\dfrac{3}{2},0)$

Therefore,

The two points for the line y+5=-2(x-4) ( red color )line are

point A( x₁ , y₁) ≡ ( 0 , 3) .......Blue color

point B( x₂ , y₂) ≡ $(\dfrac{3}{2},0)$ ............Green color

The Graph is attached below.
