Answer:

3:6:4

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Number of apples in the basket=12

Number of pears in the basket=24

Number of oranges in the basket=16

We have to find the ratio of apples, pears and oranges in the  basket.

12=4\times 3

24=4\times 3\times 2

16=4\times 2\times 2

HCF (12,24,16)=4

Now, divide each number by HCF

Then, we get

3:6:4

Therefore, the ratio of apples, pears and oranges in the  basket.

3:6:4

The formula for an exponential equation is y = a * b^x with a and b being a fixed value.

"a" would also be the Y intercept, which is where the graph touches or crosses the Y axis. In the given graph, the curved line touches the Y axis at 100, so the value of a would be 100.

Now we need to find b.

The blue dot at Y 50 is lined up with x = 1, so we can use the point (1,50)

Using the X and Y values we can solve for b:

format: y = a * b^x we replace the letters with the numbers above:

50 = 100 * b^1

b^1 = b so now we have:

50 = 100 *b

Divide both sides by 100 to get b by itself:

b = 50/100, which reduces to 1/2, so b = 1/2

So the equation of the graph becomes y = 100(1/2)^x

You may need to write the 1/2 as 0.5, not sure how you need to enter it.

Answer:

yes, $20.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you draw a line through the points it makes a straight line, so it is linear.  And you get $20 by dividing $100 per the 5 people.

A hockey season ticket holder pays $99.00 for her tickets plus $3.00 for a program for each game. A second person pays $14.00 fo
ddd [48]

The two person will pay the same amount of money when they both watch 9 hockey games.

<h3>How to find the equation and use it to find cost?</h3>

A hockey season ticket holder pays $99.00 for her tickets plus $3.00 for a program for each game. Therefore,

y = 99 + 3x

where

y = total cost

x = number of game

A second person pays $14.00 for a ticket to every game but doesn't buy programs. Therefore,

y = 14x

The number of games they will have the same amount is as follows:

99 + 3x = 14x

99  = 14x - 3x

99 = 11x

x = 99 / 11

x = 9

Therefore, they will have the same amount when they watch 9 games.

Simplify: 3x^2-8x+4 and show work please
Bad White [126]

believe what you're asking is to turn the trinomial into two binomials

So you first have to get 3x²; the only way to get this is

(3x    )(x     )     when multiplying that, you would get 3x²

when dealing with the -8x and the 4, you must find numbers that are factors of four (when multiplied together they will equal 4) and will multiply with the x's to get -8

(3x-2)(x-2)

you can tell that this is the answer because when you multiply though you will get:

3x-2x²-6x+4

or: 3x²-8x_4

Hope this helped
