Complete question :

Mr. Hopkins has a 1 meter wire he is using to make clocks. Each fourth meter is marked off with 5 smaller equal lengths. If Mr. Hopkins bends the wire at ¾ meter, what fraction of the marks is that?

Answer:

15 th ; 15/20

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of wire = 1 m

Number of fourth length possible = 1 ÷ 1/4 = 1 * 4/1 = 4

Each fourth length divided into 5 equal sizes :

Hence. Total number of equal spaced division :

5 * 4 = 20

If wire is bent at 3/4 meter :

Fraction of the mark

3/ 4 of 20

3/4 * 20

(3 * 20) / 4

60 / 4

= 15th

= 15/ 20

The table shows the outputs, y, for different inputs, x: Input (x) 6 12 15 25 Output (y) 14 15 15 16 Part A: Do the data in this

cluponka [151]

Answer:

Part A: No it is not a function

Part B: The equation

Part C: x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A - The table:

Input (x) Output (y)

6 14

12 15

15 15

25 16

This is a function because it has no repeating inputs values which have alternate outputs. Each input is assigned exactly one output.

Part B - The relation y = 7x - 15 has the value y = 27 when x = 6. You can find it by substituting into the equation.

y = 7(6) -15

y = 42 - 15

y = 27

The value of the relation in the table when x = 6 is y = 14. The equation has the greater value.

Part C: To find when y = 6, set it equal to 6 and solve for x.

6 = 7x - 15

21 = 7x

3 = x

Please help me with number ten and twelve

Answer: $93,\ 34^{\circ}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

For figure (i) both triangles are congruent

$\therefore 8x-27=4x+33\\\Rightarrow 8x-4x=33+27\\\Rightarrow 4x=60\\\Rightarrow x=15$

$\Rightarrow PQ=8x-27\\\Rightarrow PQ=93$

For figure (ii)

Two triangles WXZ and WZY are congruent

$\therefore 9x-28=5x-8\\\Rightarrow 4x=20\\\Rightarrow x=5^{\circ}\\\Rightarrow \angle YWX=2(9x-28)\\\Rightarrow \angle YWX=2(17)\\\Rightarrow \angle YWX=34^{\circ}$

Based on the order of operations, which is the first step in simplifying this expression? 9 + 5 x 2(20/4 - 2 + 1)

Leto [7]

Answer:

(Parentheses) P.E.M.D.A.S
Exponents(^)
Multiply(X)
Division(/)
Addition(+)
Subtraction(-)

Step-by-step explanation:

First simplify (20/4-2+1)=

9+5x2(4)=

then simplify again

14x8=112

simplify one more time and you get your answer.

122 is your answer.

So to answer the real question start with parentheses first then work and simplify the equation.

Cristine's middle school has a total of 900 students and 45 teachers. The local high school has 110 teachers and a student-teach

ozzi

45/900=110/x
x=(110/45)*900=2200 students
Cristine will find 2200 students when she gets to high school.
