Answer:

The blue portion of the flag is actually 2/6 or 1/3 of the flag

Step-by-step explanation:

If you look at the size of the blue portion of the line it takes up twice the space as the white part. Imagine a small line drawn through the middle of the blue rectangle, now you can see that the flag is split up into 6 parts, rather then 5! Since we now have 2/6 of the flag being taken up by blue, that can be reduced down to 1/3 of the flag covered in blue.

Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

  21,550

Step-by-step explanation:

An increase of 5% means the population is multiplied by 100% +5% = 1.05. This occurs each year for 12 years, so the multiplier is ...

  1.05¹² ≈ 1.7958563

When the initial population is multiplied by this factor, it becomes ...

  12,000×1.7958563 ≈ 21,550

22/110 to its lowest terms
Dmitrij [34]
Find the GCF, in this case 11, and divide both the numerator and denominator by it. Here, it turns out to be 2/11 because 22÷11 is 2 and 110÷11 is 11.

I’m not sure what to do, this was what I got. Someone please help and solve problem #14 in the picture. Thanks!
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

  • x = 8
  • AM = BM = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Your problem setup is correct. The triangle is isosceles, so the marked segments are the same length.

  3x - 8 = 2x

You can solve this by subtracting 2x (from both sides) ...

  x - 8 = 0

Then adding 8 (to both sides):

  x = 8

MB = MA = 2x = 16.

Honestly I dont know how to do this just please help me
V125BC [204]
F(x) = 3x - 2
f(8) = 3(8) - 2
f(8) = 24 - 2
f(8) = 22
f(-5) = 3(-5) - 2
f(-5) = -15 - 2
f(-5) = -17
f(8) - f(-5) = 22 - (-17)
f(8) - f(-5) = 39
Hope this helped! Good luck! :)
