Let
x-------> total peanuts originally from the bag
we know that
1) Phillip took 1/3 of the peanuts from the bag--------> (1/3)*x
remaining=x-(1/3)*x-------> (2/3)*x
2) Joy took 1/4 of the remaining peanuts-------> (1/4)*[(2/3)*x]----> (1/6)*x
remaining= (2/3)*x-(1/6)*x------> (1/2)*x
3) Brett took 1/2 of the remaining peanuts------> (1/2)*(1/2)*x-----> (1/4)*x
remaining= (1/2)*x-(1/4)*x-------> (1/4)*x
4) Preston took 10 peanuts------> 10
(1/4)*x-10=71----> multiply by 4 both sides----> x-40=284----> x=324 peanuts
5) Total originally peanuts from the bag is equal to 324 peanuts
6) Phillip took (1/3)*x-----> (1/3)*324=108 peanuts
7) Joy took (1/6)*x------> (1/6)*324=54 peanuts
8) Brett took (1/4)*x------> (1/4)*324=81 peanuts
9) Preston took 10
so
check
108+54+81+10=253
remaining=324-253------> remaining=71-------> is correct
Answer:
40200
Step-by-step explanation:
(8x7x6x5x4x3x2x1) - (5x4x3x2x1)
Or simply plug 8! - 5! into the calc.
Answer: y= (x+2)² −
5
Step-by-step explanation:
The way I got this answer is by completing the square. The first step though, when looking at this equation, is to see if we can factor it. The way to check is to look at the coefficient for x² which is 1, and the constant, in this case -1. If we multiply those together, we get −. Now we look at the middle term, 4x. We need to find any numbers that multiply to equal − 1x² and add to 4x. There aren't any, which means it is not factorable.
Hope I helped
G. From the origin move right 3 units,then up 6 units
H. From the origin move left 2 units,then up 11 units
J. From the origin move right 8 units, then down 10 units
K. From the origin move left 16 units, then down 20 units
L. Plot the first point at the origin then move up 5 units
M. From the origin move left 14 units and plot the next point at the origin
See if the distance between the two lines is consistent with a compass.
Make sure the lines intersect at right angles with the corner of a piece of paper.
Measure each of the angles with a straightedge.
There is no way to ensure you have constructed parallel lines.
