Answer:

Not correct

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{1}{4}(8y-12)

means multiply \frac{1}{4} by 8y and then multiply \frac{1}{4} by -12

\frac{1}{4}(8y)=2y

\frac{1}{4}(-12)=-3

then the answer must be 2y -3 not 2y -12

**************find x
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

2/(x-2) = 5/(4+x) - set up the ratios of similar sides

2(4 + x) = 5(x - 2) - cross multiply to solve

8 + 2x = 5x - 10   - simplify

18 = 3x                 - simplify to get x on one side of the equation

6 = x                    - divide both sides of the equation by 3 to isolate x

A 6 month old sheltie puppy gets 2.5 cups of food twice per day. Select the equation that describes how many cups of food she ea
Molodets [167]

Answer:

y = 5x

D is the correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that sheltie puppy gets 2.5 cups of food twice per day.

It means that in a day she eats 5 cups of food. It means the rate is 5 cups of food per day.

The equation will be linear.

Let y be the number of cups of food she eat and x is the number of days.

Hence, we have

Slope = 5

And the equation that represents the number of cups of food she eats is given by

y = 5x

D is the correct option.

How would you do 13 as a exponential
Ksenya-84 [330]

Hello! Welcome to Brainly! Let's solve together. :)

To put a number into scientific notation, you multiply it by a power of 10 that will make it a digit 1-10.

As you can see, we can divide by 10, or multiply by 1/10 to get us to 1.3, which is between 1 and 10. How would we get 1.3 to 13? We would multiply by 10!

This gives us our answer below.

1.3(10^{1})

I hope this helps!
