Answer:

4 crickets

Step-by-step explanation:

On the first day, the lizard ate 50% of the 10 crickets it was given. 50% of 10 is 5 (10 times 0.5), so five crickets remain. The next day, the lizard ate 20% of the 5 remaining crickets. 20% of 5 is 1 (5 times 0.2), and 5-1=4, so 4 crickets are left.

If there are choices, please list them.

If not, it is certainly a capital gain if you live in the United States.

And capital gains are taxed. Again if you are in the US and you are not a trader, you will be taxed at a different higher rate if you sold it in less than a 1 year period.

Over a year and it is called a long term gain and the tax rate is lower. There's more about how to write off short term losses and gains, but that's getting into complexity you probably don't need to know about.

Answer:

16 cm2

Step-by-step explanation:

By equa tion of area of triangle: S = 1/2 * height * base

Triangle B: 32  = 1/2 * 8 * x --> x = 8 (cm)

The base of triangle A is half of the base of triangle B so it is 4 cm.

The area of triangle A = 1/2 * 8 * 4 = 16 (cm2)

What is the constant of variation for the quadratic variation? 0.1y = 3x2
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

The constant of variation for the given quadratic equation is, 30

Step-by-step explanation:

One of the form of a quadratic equation is written as:

y = kx^2     ....[1]

where k is the coefficient and for this case the constant of variation.

In order to obtain the answer for the given equation, we write the given equation to the form above.

0.1y=3x^2  or

y=(\frac{3}{0.1})x^2 or

y=30x^2

Comparing this equation with equation [1], to get the value of k;

k=30.

therefore, the  constant of variation is, 30.
