Answer:

Each friend will receive 7 candies.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Number of candies in one bag = 20 pieces

Number of candies in other bag = 15 pieces

Total number of candies = 20 + 15 = 35 pieces

Number of friends = 5

Let,

c be the number of candies each friend will receive.

5c = 35

Dividing both sides by 5

\frac{5c}{5}=\frac{35}{5}

c = 7

Hence,

Each friend will receive 7 candies.

Ronald is making hats and scarves for charity. He has enough yarn to make 5 hats and 8 scarves. Takes him 12 hrs to knit a hat,
kari74 [83]

Constraints are simply the subjects of an objective function.

The inequality that represents the constraint is: 12x + 6y \le 20

Represent the number of hats with x, and the number of scarves with y.

From the question, we have:

  • He spends 12 hours to knit a hat
  • He spends 6 hours to knit a scarf

So, the equation of the total time spent is:

Time = 12x + 6y

This time spent is not more than 20 hours.

So, the inequality is

12x + 6y \le 20

Hence, the inequality that represents the constraint is: 12x + 6y \le 20

The graph shows the solution to a system of inequalities:
tangare [24]

Answer:

Option A. 4x+3y\leq 12 and x\geq 0

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The solution of the first inequality is the shaded area below the solid line 4x+3y=12

The solid line passes through the points (0,4) and (3,0) (the y and x intercepts)

therefore

The first inequality is

4x+3y\leq 12

The solution of the second inequality is the shaded area to the right of the solid line x=0

therefore

The second inequality is

x\geq 0

Find the equation of a line perpendicular to y - 12 = 2x – 8 that passes through the point (2, 3). (answer in slope-intercept fo
Alla [95]

Answer:

\displaystyle y=-\frac{1}{2}x+4

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Equation of a Line</u>

We can find the equation of a line by using two sets of data. It can be a pair of ordered pairs, or the slope and a point, or the slope and the y-intercept, or many other combinations of appropriate data.

We are given a line

y - 12 = 2x -8

And are required to find a line perpendicular to that line. Let's find the slope of the given line. Solving for y

y = 2x +4

The coefficient of the x is the slope

m=2

The slope of the perpendicular line is the negative reciprocal of m, thus

\displaystyle m'=-\frac{1}{2}

We know the second line passes through (2,3). That is enough information to find the second equation:

y-y_o=m'(x-x_o)

\displaystyle y-3=-\frac{1}{2}(x-2)

Operating

\displaystyle y=-\frac{1}{2}(x-2)+3

Simplifying

\displaystyle y=-\frac{1}{2}x+4

That is the equation in slope-intercept form. Intercept: y=4

OLga [1]
Answer:

z = 86

Explanation:

If you select a card at random, what is the probability of getting:A number smaller than 5 (counting the ace as a 1)?
garri49 [273]

4 Aces, 4 2's, 4 3's 4 4's

= 16 cards total out of 52 cards

 so probability would be 16/52 which reduces to 4/13
