Answer:

$23.20 and $29

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set up a simple equation to solve this problem.

4x + 5x = 52.2

9x = 52.2

x = 5.8

To find out how much each person received, we multiply 5.8 with the ratio numbers 4 and 5. That gives us $23.20 and $29, respectively.

It would be 46 for the salary and for the income would be 35 because if u subtract that and then divide it u get 50

What are the zeros of the function? h(x)=x3−2x2−3x Select each correct answer.

Nat2105 [25]

Hello again!

It looks like you need a lot of help today. I'm glad I am able to help you!

h(x) = x³ - 2x² - 3x

The question you need to ask yourself is "How do you find the zeros of a function.

Answer: To find the zeros of a function, just set the function equal to zero then solve for x

x³ - 2x² - 3x = 0

Factor the left sides

x(x + 1)(x - 3) = 0

Now we can set factors equal to 0

x = 0 or x + 1 = 0 or x - 3 = 0

x = 0 or x = 0 - 1 or x = 0 + 3

x = 0 or x = -1 or x = 3

Thus,

The zeros of the function are: x = 0 or x = -1 or x = 3

As always, I am glad to help students like you!

3 RIGHT TRIANGLES

1 big right triangle is divided into 2 smaller ones. Medium and small.

a.How far is the spot on the beach from the parking lot?

Medium triangle: long leg = 32 m ; short leg = x

Small triangle: long leg = x ; short leg = 18m

32/x = x/18

32*18 = x*x

576 = x²

√576 = √x²

24 = x

Parking lot to the beach is 24 meters.

b. How far will he have to walk from the parking lot to get to the refreshment stand?

Use Pythagorean theorem:

Medium triangle: long leg = 32 m ; short leg = 24 m ; hypotenuse = ?

32²+ 24² = c²

1024 + 576 = c²

1600 = c²

√1600 = √c²

40 m = c

Parking lot to refreshment stand is 40 meters.

The perimeter of an isosceles triangle is 32 inches. If the base is longer than half of the two other equal sides by 2 inches, f

Leona [35]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let equal sides of an isosceles triangle = a inches

Base = $\frac{1}{2}a+2$ inches

Perimeter = 32 inches

a + a + $\frac{1}{2}a+2$ = 32

$2a + \frac{1}{2}a+2 = 32\\\\\frac{2a*2}{1*2}+\frac{1}{2}a+2=32\\\\\frac{4a}{2}+\frac{1}{2}a+2=32\\\\\frac{5}{2}a+2 = 32\\\\$

Subtract 2 from both sides

$\frac{5}{2}a=32-2\\\\\frac{5}{2}a=30\\\\a=30*\frac{2}{5}\\\\a=6*2$

a = 12 inches

base = $\frac{1}{2}*12+2$

= 6 + 2

Base = 8 inches

What is the value expression 8+24 divided by (2 times 6) - 4

Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given mixed operations there is a particular order that must be followed.

Using the order set out in the acronym PEMDAS

P - Parenthesis ( brackets ), E- Exponents ( powers ), M - Multiplication, D - Division, A- Addition, S - Subtraction

8 + 24 ÷ (2 × 6) - 4

= 8 + 24 ÷ 12 - 4 ← parenthesis

= 8 + 2 - 4 ← division

= 10 - 4 ← addition

= 6 ← subtraction
