Answer:

The answer is "7".

Step-by-step explanation:

Given values:

$\ bag \ of \ rice= 17\frac{1}{2} \\\\\ eating \ rice \ by \ ken \ per \ day = 2\frac{1}{2}\\\\\ rice = \frac{35}{2}\\\\ \ eat \ by \ day = \frac{5}{2}\\\\\ total \ days = \frac{\ bag \ value}{ \ eat \ by \ day}\\\\\ total \ days = \frac{\frac{35}{2}}{\frac{5}{2}}\\\\\ total \ days = \frac{35}{2} \times \frac{2}{5}\\\\\ total \ days = 7$

How do i check 1/3v=-5 ?

BigorU [14]

If you mean that you want to solve the equation for v, then all you need to do is to multiply both sides by 3:

$\dfrac{1}{3}v=-5 \iff 3\cdot \dfrac{1}{3}v = -5\cdot 3 \iff v=-15$

Y=6x/5 +27 find y-intercept and slope

mixas84 [53]

Answer:

General equation of a line is given by y = mx +c, where m is the gradient /slope, c is the intercept. To find for the intercept on y- axis, put x = 0.
$y = \frac{6(0)}{5 } + 27 \\ y = \frac{0}{5} + 27 \\ y = 27 \\ therefore \: the \: intercept \: on \: y \: is \: 27 \\$
By comparison,
$y = mx + \: c \\ y = \frac{6}{5} x \: +27 \\ m = \frac{6}{5 \: } \: \\ hence \: slope \: is \: \frac{6}{5}$

Dianna and Becky were playing on the same soccer team and took turns being goalie. They stoped 9 out of 10 shots made against th

vitfil [10]

Answer:

27 balls

Step-by-step explanation:

If Dianna and Becky stopped 9 out of 10 shots made against them.

It means they allowed in 1 out of 10 shots made against them.

This is best solved using ratios

Proportion of Shots Stopped : Proportion of Shots allowed=9:1

If the other team scores 3 points, it means the number of shots allowed =3

Let x be the number of shots stopped

Number of Shots Stopped : Number of Shots allowed=x:3

Therefore:

9:1=x:3

$\frac{9}{1}=\frac{x}{3}$

Cross multiplying

x=9 X 3 =27

Dianna and Becky stopped 27 balls from going into the net,

If you apply the changes below to the linear parent function, Fx) = x, what is

Inga [223]

Answer: A. G(x)= ax=y= - f(x) is flip over x-axis. Therefore, f(x) =14x would become f(x) =-14x. Therefore, final transformed function f(x)=-14x is vertically stretch by a factor of 14 and flip over the x-axis.
