Name:
Triss [41]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason it's A is because to make the ratio 1:1 you need to have a whole number you can't have half a pencil or pen, so what you need to do is add 22 and 96 and divide you should get 59, but if you add 23 to 96 and divide you get 59.5 and you can't have half a pencil (you can but that's not what were looking for). So in problems like this add and then divide by 2 and choose whole numbers because you can't have half in ratios cause that won't give the correct answer.

qaws [65]

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Lisa and Frank type at the same rate.

They both type 1 page every six minutes.

Lisa types 6 pages every 36 minutes, and if we divide the minutes by the pages, we get

\frac{36}{6} = 6

And Frank types 5 pages ever 30 minutes, when we divide we get

\frac{30}{5} = 6

enyata [817]

Given:

The given equation is

1-(x+2)+2x=5(2x-5)-x

Mikel first applies the distributive property.

To find:

The resulted equation of this step.

Solution:

We have,

1-(x+2)+2x=5(2x-5)-x

According to the distributive property,

a(b+c)=ab+ac

Using distributive property, we get

1-(x)-(2)+2x=5(2x)+5(-5)-x

1-x-2+2x=10x-25-x

Therefore, the resulted equation after distributive property is 1-x-2+2x=10x-25-x.

Is {(3,4),(3,5),(4,4), (4,5)} a function
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

<u>No, it's not a function.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

This is not a function because the x-inputs repeat. It would be a function if each x-input was a different number, but the inputs 3 and 4 repeat twice. <u>Therefore, this is not a function.</u>
