Answer:

5 ≥ 9*.15 + x*.25

He can buy up to 14 candies

Step-by-step explanation:

Total money ≥number of peppermints * cost per peppermint + number of sour candies * cost per sour candy

We know he has 5 dollars.  He bought 5 peppermints at $.15 cents each and x sour candies at $.25 each

Substituting in

5 ≥ 9*.15 + x*.25

5≥1.35 + .25x

Subtract 1.35 on each side

5-1.35 ≥ 1.35-1.35+.25x

3.65≥.25x

Divide by .25 on each side

3.65/.25 ≥ .25x/.25

14.6 ≥ x

He can buy up to 14 candies.  You can't buy part of a candy

Solve for x. Round to the nearest tenth of a degree, if necessary.
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

x ≈ 52.1°

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the tangent ratio in the right triangle

tan x = \frac{opposite}{adjacent} = \frac{KL}{LM} = \frac{36}{28} , then

x = tan^{-1} (\frac{36}{28} ) ≈ 52.1° () to the nearest tenth )

Hi, the answer is K but can anyone show why
dlinn [17]

Let's do 51 and 52.

51. The contrapositive has the same truth value as the original statement. That's opposed to the converse, which may or may not be true independent of the original statement.

The contrapositive of IF P THEN Q is IF not Q THEN not P.  They're equivalent.  Here that's If the cat is not female then it is not tricolor.

Answer: C

52.  

(x^3)^{(4-b^2)}=1

x^{3(4-b^2)} = 1

For the statement to be true, the exponent must be zero:

3(4-b^2) = 0

b^2 = 4

b = \pm 2

Both positive 2 and negative 2 have a square of 4.

Answer: K

By the way, usually we assume 0^0=1 so the restriction that x \ne 0 isn't really necessary.  Think of the definition of a polynomial or the binomial expansion:

\displaystyle f(x)=\sum_{k=0}^n a_k x^k

\displaystyle(x+y)^n=\sum_{k=0}^n {n \choose k} x^{k}y^{n-k}

For these common equalities to work when x=0 we need to define 0^0=1
