Answer:  see below

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Any value x such that |x| < 1 will make the conjecture false

<em>In simpler words, let x be a fraction between 0 and 1.</em>

One example: Let x = \dfrac{1}{2}

Then x⁴ = \bigg(\dfrac{1}{2}\bigg)^4

             = \dfrac{1}{16}

\dfrac{1}{16} < \dfrac{1}{2}

so the conjecture is false.

A concession stand charges $2.50 for a bag of popcorn. The stand has already sold 30 bags of popcorn. How many more bags x of po
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

The concession stands needs to sell 14 or more bags.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Cost per bag of popcorn = $2.50

Number of bags already sold = 30

Cost of 30 bags = 30*2.50 = $75

Bags needs to be sold to make $110 = x

2.50x + 75 ≥ 110

2.50x ≥ 110-75

2.50x ≥ 35

Dividing both sides by 2.50

\frac{2.50x}{2.50}\geq \frac{35}{2.50}\\x\geq 14

Hence,

The concession stands needs to sell 14 or more bags.

Please help me, I don't know how to do this...
Lunna [17]

Answer:

  A.  5

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle will be a right triangle when the side lengths satisfy the Pythagorean theorem: the sum of the squares of the legs is equal to the square of the hypotenuse.

  (x +1)^2 +x^2 = (√61)^2

  x^2 +2x +1 +x^2 = 61 . . . eliminate parentheses

  2x^2 +2x = 60 . . . . . . .subtract 1, collect terms

  x^2 +x -30 = 0 . . . . . divide by 2, subtract 30

  (x +6)(x -5) = 0 . . . . factor the quadratic

  x = -6 or +5

The solution is x = 5.

_____

Side lengths cannot be negative. Solution values are values of x that make the factors zero. x+6=0 when x=-6, for example.
