Answer:

  A)  23

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of sandwiches will be ...

  (3 chests)(14 lunches/chest) = 42 lunches

The fraction that have ham sandwiches is 0.55, so the number is about ...

  (0.55)(42 lunches) = 23.1 lunches ≈ 23 lunches

About 23 lunches contain ham sandwiches.

Answer:

A

14 x 3 = 42 lunches

42 x 0.55 = 23.1

so there are about 23 ham sandwiches

Answer:

2. n = 11

4. g = -2

6. t = 21

8. n = 4

10. y = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

2. 63  = -3(1 - 2n)

Dividing both the side by negative 3 we get

-21=1-2n\\2n=1+21\\2n=22\\n=\frac{22}{2} \\\therefore n=11

4. -g + 2(3 + g) = -4(g + 1)

First we will open the bracket by distributive property A( B +C) = AB + AC

-g+2\times 3 + 2\times g = -4\times g + -4\times 1\\-g+6+ 2g=-4g-4\\\textrm{we will take all the g term the left side and the constant to the right side}\\4g-g+2g=-6-4\\5g=-10\\g=\frac{-10}{5}\\\therefore g=-2

6.-3(t +5 ) + (4t + 2) = 8

Using distributive property A( B +C) = AB + AC we get

-3\times t + -3\times 5 + 4t + 2=8\\-3t-15+ 4t + 2=8\\t=8+15-2\\t=21\\\therefore t=21\\

8. -8 - n = -3(2n -4)

Using distributive property A( B +C) = AB + AC we get

-8 - n = -3\times 2n - -3\times4\\-8-n=-6n+12\\\textrm{all the n terms to the left inside and the constant of the right-hand side}\\6n-n=8+12\\5n=20\\n=\frac{20}{5}\\ \therefore n= 4

10. -4( 2 - y) + 3y = 3(y - 4)

Using distributive property A( B +C) = AB + AC we get

-4\times 2 --4\times y + 3y = 3\times y -3\times 4\\-8+4y+3y =3y-12\\\textrm{all the y terms to the left side and the constant to the right side}\\4y+3y-3y=-12+8\\4y=-4\\y=\frac{-4}{4}\\ \therefore y=-1

Given the relation y = 7x2 + 3, if the input is 4, what is the output? (4 points)
aivan3 [116]
I'm assuming that you meant: 
y = 7x² + 3 

Remember! Inputs are always x values (unless stated otherwise). Meaning the problem says: 
x = 4 

y = 7(4)² + 3 

The square only applies to the 4. The 7 is not going to be squared! (To be exact it only applies to whatever the value of x is. 

4² = 4·4 = 16

Remember: 
Parenthesis
Exponents
Multiplication
Division
Addition
Subtraction

Follow PEMDAS from left to right (or in the case above from top to bottom).

7·16 + 3 = ? 

16·7 = 10·7 + 6·7 = 70 + 42 = 112
(All I did to multiply was break it up into parts. If it confuses you don't worry about it, and just multiply it out like normal or use a calculator if you are allowed to)

112 + 3 = ? 

Our output is: 
115!
