Andy claims that his bird can do single-digit multiplication. He shows the bird 12 cards with simple multiplication problems tha

t are either correct or incorrect. The bird correctly identifies the correctness of the card 9 times out of 12. If the bird were simply guessing, how many would the bird be expected to get correct? (1 point)

If the bird were just guessing there would be two options (right or wrong) and we would expect them to be equally likely to occur (50% chance for each). A 50% of correct, out of 12 cards gives us:

12×0.50=6

If the bird was guessing we would expect 6 correct answers. (1/2 of the total correct and 1/2 wrong.)

So the answer would be 6.

Which expression has a value of 22? A. 14 + 2 x 5. B. (14+2) x 5 C. 24 - 6÷ 3. D. (24 - 6) ÷ 3
zimovet [89]

Use PEMDAS:

P Parentheses first

E Exponents (ie Powers and Square Roots, etc.)

MD Multiplication and Division (left-to-right)

AS Addition and Subtraction (left-to-right)

A. 14 + 2 × 5 = 14 + 10 = 24 ≠ 22

B. (14 + 2) × 5 = 16 × 5 = 80 ≠ 22

C. 24 - 6 ÷ 3 = 24 - 2 = 22

D. (24 - 6) ÷ 3 = 18 ÷ 3 = 6 ≠ 22

<h3>Answer: C.</h3>

What is the range of the function f(x) = |x| – 3?
Likurg_2 [28]
Why not draw the graph of y=|x|?  It has a v-shape, and the vertex is at (0,0).

The graph of f(x) = |x| - 3 looks exactly the same, EXCEPT that the whole graph of |x| is shifted 3 units downward.  The smallest value that y can have is therefore -3.

Can you now figure out the range of f(x)?

The plans for a shed call for a rectangular floor with a perimeter of 204 ft. The length is two times the width. Find the length
Harlamova29_29 [7]
A-length
b-width
perimeter of rectangular floor: 2a+2b=204
<span>The length is two times the width: a=2b
</span>2a + 2b = 204
2*2b + 2b = 204
6b = 204|:6
b = 34
a=2b=2*34=68

a=68->length
b=34->width

a horticulturalist is building a fence around a rectangular garden using the side of a building for one side of the enclosure. s
Harman [31]
The garden area is maximum when the enclosure is a square.
If a is the length of the side of the square then the length of the building is also a.
The perimeter length is 4a made up of 81+a feet, so 81+a=4a and 3a=81 making a=27 feet.
