Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

If you divide 4/5 divided by 1/8 you get 6.4. Therefore, you can only make 6 full burgers.

Does anyone know how he got from step 1 to step 2??????????
padilas [110]

9514 1404 393

Explanation:

Both sides of the equation are squared.

  \dfrac{x-12}{4}=\sqrt{x} \qquad\text{given}\\\\ \left(\dfrac{x-12}{4}\right)^2=x \qquad\text{square both sides}\\\\ \left(\dfrac{x}{4}-3\right)^2=x \qquad\text{divide out the fraction}\\\\ \dfrac{x^2}{4^2}-\dfrac{6}{4}x+9=x \qquad\text{$(a-b)^2=a^2-2ab+b^2$}\\\\\dfrac{x^2}{16}-\dfrac{5x}{2}+9=0 \qquad\text{subtract $x$}

I like this better without fractions, so would multiply by 16 at this point (or earlier).

  x^2 -40x +144 = 0

  (x -36)(x -4) = 0

  x = 4 or 36 . . . . . . x = 4 is extraneous

The solution is x = 36.

If the mean, median, and mode are all the same for 4, 9, 7, 8, and x, what is the value of x?​
seropon [69]
<h3>Answer:  x = 7</h3>

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

Explanation:

Since we have an odd number of values, this tells us that the median is part of the data set. It's the middle most item after we sort the values.

Recall that the mode is the most frequent item. Since the mode and median are the same, this must mean x can only be equal to one of the following

4, 9, 7 or 8

We can only pick one of those values.

----------------------

If x = 4, then the set {4,9,7,8,x} updates to {4,9,7,8,4} which sorts to {4,4,7,8,9}

The middle most item is in slot 3, which would be 7. So the median is 7.

The median 7 does not match with the mode 4.

So we cross x = 4 off the list.

-----------------------

If x = 7, then we have {4,7,7,8,9}

The mode is 7 and the median is 7. So far, so good.

Now let's compute the mean. Add up the values and divide by 5 because there are 5 items.

(4+7+7+8+9)/5 = 35/5 = 7

We've shown that the set {4,7,7,8,9} has mean 7.

Overall, that set has the same mean, median and mode. So the answer is confirmed.

I'll let you check the cases when x = 8 and x = 9.

What is the missing side length in this right triangle?
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

A. 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Ooh, look! This triangle is a Pythagorean triple! Without even needing to use a formula, I can tell that you are correct and the answer is A. 15.

It's based off of a 3-4-5 right triangle, because 9-12-15 simplifies to that if you divide every term by 3. It's basically just a bigger version of a 3-4-5 triangle! Isn't math cool:)
