15. 

2500 X 15 = 37500
37500 ÷ 100 = 375
375 + 200 = 575
The answer is C.


16. 
The easiest way to answer this question is by going through each answer one by one: 

14:6 = 28:18
28 <span>÷ 14 = 2
</span>18 <span>÷ 6 = 3
</span>Since both numbers were multiplied by different numbers, we can establish that this is not a true proportion. 

42:7 = 6:2 
42 ÷ 7 = 6
7 ÷ 7 = 1
42:7 = 6:1
By dividing both numbers by the same number, we can establish that the answer is wrong. 

2:3 = 3:2
This is obviously wrong. That is because, in ratios, the order counts. So the first 3 is more than the first 2, therefore the second number on the other side of the ratio should be more than the first. 

3:5 = 12:20
12 <span>÷ 3 = 4
</span>20 <span>÷ 5 = 4
</span>Since both numbers were multiplied by the same number, this is a true proportion. 

The answer is D.

Solve this quadratic equation by completing the square <br> x^2+6x=18
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

( x + 3 )² - 27

Step-by-step explanation:

x² + 6x = 18

→ Minus 18 from both sides to get a quadratic equation

x² + 6x - 18

⇒Completed square from is ( x + a )² + b

⇒The value of 'a' will always be half the 'b' value in the equation

ax² + bx + c

→( x + 3 )² + b

Expand out the equation to find 'b'

x² + 6x + 9

We have do something to get from 9 to - 18 which -27

So the answer is ( x + 3 )² -27

Tara wants to attend a four-year college to become a math teacher. Which statements explain the possible differences in total ye
Naddika [18.5K]
Answer:

- A public in-state college charges less for in-state tuition than for out-of-state tuition.
- Tara will most likely have to pay room and board expenses at an out-of-state public college, but might be able to commute to a public college in state.

Explanation:
If Tara wants to study out of state she could face higher tuition costs; public universities generally favor their residents with lower tuition costs, contrary to the charge for students who comes from other states.
Also, if she wants to study outside the state, Tara would have to analyze the costs of a residence and food that she will have to cover if she studies outside the state. On the contrary, if she studies in the state she could live with her family and only cover the transportation costs.

hope this helps!
