Answer:

c) 1

Step-by-step explanation:

=> ax+y = 5

<u><em>Putting x =2, y =3</em></u>

=> a(2)+3 = 5

=> 2a = 5-3

=> 2a = 2

<em>Dividing both sides by 2</em>

=> a = 1

Anna, Gina, and Ted divided up a box of post cards. Anna took one-fourth of the cards. Gina took half of what remained. Ted took
aliina [53]

Answer:

16 cards

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use logic to find out how many cards were in the beginning.

If Ted took 6 cards, and Gina took half of what remained, then when Gina took cards, she had 6\cdot2=12 to choose from.

Now, Anna took \frac{1}{4} of the cards, meaning that 12 is \frac{3}{4} of the amount of cards there originally were.

\frac{12}{x} = \frac{3}{4}\\\\12\cdot4=48\\\\48\div3=16

Hope this helped!

If anyone can help me it would be appreciated I will give out 50 points I need answers quick.
Allushta [10]

Answer:

Step 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Tasha was correct in all the steps leading up to the fourth one. However, in the fourth step was where she messed up.

She said that: \frac{1}{256} =-\frac{1}{4^{-4}}=4^{-4}

However, when we have a negative exponent, in order to get rid of the negative, we simply take the reciprocal of the number and then make the exponent positive. Here, the answer should be:

\frac{1}{256} =\frac{1}{4^{4}}=4^{-4}
