Step-by-step explanation:

a+b+c=78

b=10+a

c=2b

then, we back the first

a+10+a+2b=78

2a+2b=78- 10

2a+2(10+a)=68

2a+2a=48

4a=48

a=12

b=22

c=44

Eddi Din [679]

Answer: Choice C

0 \le d \le 2

Graph with filled in circles at d = 0 and d = 2, shading in between

==========================================

Explanation:

d = amount downloaded in gigabytes

The smallest amount is d = 0. We cannot download a negative amount of data, so this is why d = 0 is the smallest.

The largest amount allowed is d = 2. This is the cap that the ISP has set up.

So basically d can be anything between d = 0 and d = 2, including both endpoints. This means 0 \le d \le 2

We use filled in circles for both endpoints to show to the reader "include these endpoints". Shading is done in between to show the entire solution set of possible d values. For instance d = 1 is in that region so it is possible to have this solution. Something like d = 4 is outside the region and not possible.

What is greater 1/3 or 1/8
Ludmilka [50]
1/3 is greater. Picture a pie with nothing cut into it. Then, you cut 3 equal pieces out of it, leaving no pie remaining. So, if you take 1 piece, you have 2 pieces that you didn't take. So if you do the exact same thing, but you cut <em>8 </em>pieces out of the pie and you take 1 piece, there are still 7 pieces remaining. So 1/8 is a smaller part of the pie than the 1/3, since you are cutting the pie into 8 identical pieces while with 1/3 you are cutting the same sized pie into 3 pieces. Sorry if I was confusing, just ask me if you want an easier-to-understand explanation. Also, if you pick a "brainliest" answer, it actually <em>gives </em>you points.

Find the midpoint (6,3) and (14,9)
scoray [572]

Answer:

(10,6)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation you would use to solve this is (x1+x2/2 , y1+y2/2) so when you plug in the numbers you get this (6+14/2 , 3+9/2) which eventually simplifies into (10, 6)
