Answer:

Claire = 30 stickers

Josh = 60 stickers

Ann = 67 stickers

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Claire stickers= x

Josh = 2x

Ann= 2x + 7

Total stickers = 157

Total stickers = Claire stickers + Josh stickers + Ann stickers

157 = x + (2x) + (2x+7)

157 = x + 2x + 2x + 7

157 = 5x + 7

Subtract 7 from both sides

157 - 7 = 5x + 7 - 7

150 = 5x

Divide both sides by 5

150/5 = x

30 = x

x = 30

Claire stickers= x

=30 stickers

Josh = 2x

= 2(30)

= 60 stickers

Ann= 2x + 7

= 2(30) + 7

= 60 + 7

= 67 stickers

Claire = 30 stickers

Josh = 60 stickers

Ann = 67 stickers

Hana is playing a virtual reality game in which she must toss a disc to land on the largest triangular section of the board. If
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

Her probability of success is 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, we have to calculate the area of the entire board

That would be the rectangle of the measure 50 cm by 40 cm

We have the area as the product of this two

That would be 50 * 40 = 2,000 cm^2

Now, the value calculated is the area of the entire possible landing area

Secondly, we need to get the area that counts as a success

that would be the area of the triangle that has a base of 50 cm and a height of 40 cm

The area of this is the product of the two divided by 2

we have this as ;

50 * 40 * 1/2 = 1,000 cm^2

So, her probability of success is simply the area of the triangle divided by the area of the rectangle

= 1000/2000 = 1/2

If the point (4,-2) is included in a direct variation relationship, which point also belongs in this direct variation? A. (-4,2)
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

(-4,2) belongs in this direct variation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the direct variation relationship is expressed by the equation y = mx ........ (1), where x and y are in direct variation and k is the variation constant.

Now, the point (4,-2) is included in the direct variation relationship, then from equation (1) we get, -2 = 4m

⇒ m =  - \frac{1}{2}

Therefore, the equation (1) becomes y = - \frac{1}{2}x

⇒ x + 2y = 0 ......... (2)

Now, from the given four options only the point (-4,2) satisfies the relation (2).

Hence, (-4,2) belongs in this direct variation. (Answer)

Yo sup??

4x+5y=-9

y=(-4x)/5-9/5

we see that this is of the form y=mx+c

where m is the slope

therefore the slope of the line is -4/5

To find y intercept, put x=0

y=-4*0/5-9/5

y=-9/5

Therefore y intercept is -9/5

Hope this helps.

Reduce to simplest form
Alina [70]

Answer:

-1 5/28

Step-by-step explanation:

-3/7 + (-3/4)

Get a common denominator of 28

-3/7 *4/4 = -12/28

-3/4 *7/7 = -21/28

-12/28 + -21/28

-33/28

-28/28 - 5/28

-1 5/28
