Answer:

80 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

hey there,

< We know that the rope is 3 pieces long. To make this into an equation, let's just write x + y + z = 150.

Assuming "y" is our second piece, we can tell y = 2x, because it is two times the size of the first piece, which is "x". We also know "z" (our third piece): z = 30.

We can try inputting all the things we know now. x + (2x) + 30 = 150. From here, we can find that x = 40. Since y is our second piece, y = 2x, so 2 x (40) = 80. The second piece would be 80 feet long. >

Hope this helped! Feel free to ask anything else.

Answer:

4x ≤ 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Omar gets 30 dollars off because $25 + $5 = 30. Let x = pairs of socks

We know each pair costs $4, so the cost would be 4x. Omar has to buy as many pairs as he can with only the coupon and gift card. Omar has to spend $30 (the full discount) or less than $30. Therefore, the inequality would be: 4x ≤ 30 or 4x is less than or equal to 30 ($30).

Total number of dogs = 37

Number of dogs that are female = 24

Number of dogs that are male is given by

$37-24\\\\=13$

We need to find the percentage of dogs are male:

So, Percentage of the dogs are male is given by

$\frac{13}{27}\times 100\\\\=48.14\%$

Which best describes the transformation that occurs from the graph of f(x)=x^2 to g(x)=(x-2)^2+3??

Leokris [45]

answer right 2, up 3

any function with the following form is a transformation from f(x) = x²

g(x) = (x – a)² + b

were a moves the function to the right when a is a positive number and to the left when its a negative number, and b moves the function up when b is positive and down when its negative.

then for a=2 positive and b=3 positive, we have

The price of a notebook in 2012 is $2000.

lozanna [386]

First, find 30% of 2,000. To do so you need to convert 30% into a decimal by dividing it by 100.

30% ⇒ 0.30

Now multiply 0.30 by 2,000 to find 30% of 2,000.

2,000 × 0.30 = 600

Subtract 600 from 2,000 to find the price of the notebook in 2013.

2,000 - 600 = 1,400

Now find 30% of 1,400 using the same process.

1,400 × 0.30 = 420

Subtract 420 from 1,400 to find the price of the notebook in 2014.

1,400 - 420 = 980

<h2>Answer:</h2>

The value of the notebook in 2014 is $980.
