1 answer:

3 0

Hello,

Here is your answer:

The proper answer to this question is "4".

Here is how:

First convert the mix number into a fraction:

1 1/8=9/8

5*8=40
1*8=8
-
9*1=9
8*1=8

40-8=32

32/8=4
8/8=1

Which means your answer is 4/1 or 4!

If you need anymore help feel free to ask me!

Hope this helps!

Princeton caught 42 fish this summer, which is 70% of the number of fish his friend Trenton caught.

Mashcka [7]

I hope you actually want to know the number of fishes caught by Trenton the friend of Princeton. Let us write down all the details that are given in the question. These details will help in answering the question.
Number of fishes caught by Princeton = 42
Let us assume the number of fishes caught by Trenton = x
Then
70x/100 = 42
7x/10 = 42
7x = 42 * 10
7x = 420
x = 420/7
= 60
So the number of fishes caught by Trenton = 60.

Percy delivers pizzas for pizza king. He is paid $6 an hour plus $2.50 for each pizza he delivers. Percy earned $280 last week.

Triss [41]

Hey You!

6 × 30 = 90

280 - 90 = 190

190 / 2.50 = 76

We can check using multiplication.

2.50 × 76 = 190

Percy delivered 76 pizzas.

Matrix A = [6 -12 4 8]. What is matrix X if 1/2x=A?

Step2247 [10]

Answer:

$X = \left[\begin{array}{cccc}12&-24&8&16\end{array}\right]$

Step-by-step explanation:

A matrix is given by

$A = \left[\begin{array}{cccc}6&-12&4&8\end{array}\right]$

Now, we have to find the matrix X if $\frac{1}{2} X = A$

⇒ X = 2A

Now, multiplication of a constant with a matrix means multiplication with that constant with all the terms of the matrix.

So, $X = \left[\begin{array}{cccc}6 \times 2&-12 \times 2&4 \times 2&8 \times 2\end{array}\right]$

⇒ $X = \left[\begin{array}{cccc}12&-24&8&16\end{array}\right]$ (Answer)

PLEASE HELP! 13 POINTS!!! WILL MARK BRAINLIEST!!!!

For all linear functions
f(x)=mx+b
m = slope
b = y-intercept (i.e.value of f(0), or value of y when x=0)

We're given
f(x)=-2x+5 => slope = -2, y-intercept=5

Examine the graph of g(x),
we have two intercepts (0,4) and (2,0)
this means slope=(0-4)/(2-0)=-2
y-intercept = 4 (y-value of (0,4)
therefore the equation of g(x)
g(x)=-2x+4 => slope = -2, y-intercept = 4

Means
A. slope of f(x)=slope of g(x) =-2
B. y-intercept of f(x)=5 > y-intercept of g(x)=4
