Answer:

18 melon

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Original stack :

Melon = 45

Grape fruits = 60

Mini version :

Grapefruit = 24

Using grapefruit ; we can obtain the scale factor;

60 : 24 = 2.5 : 1

Hence,

Amount of melon in the mini version is :

45 / 2.5

= 18

What is the slope of the line created by this equation?<br> y-6 = -3(x--8)<br> Help!
aliya0001 [1]

Rewrite the equation in slope intercept form:

Y -6 = -3(x - -8)

Use the distributive property on the right side first:

Y -6 = -3x -24

Add 6 to both sides

Y = -3x -18

The slope is the number in front of the x variable.

Slope = -3

Answer:

13/102

Step-by-step explanation:

In a standard deck of 52 cards, there are 13 black spades, 13 black clubs, 13 red diamonds and 13 red hearts. There are 26 <u>black </u>cards in the deck of 52 cards.

Probability of drawing a black card = 26/52 = 1/2

Suppose we drew the black card. There are now <u>only 51</u> cards left in the deck. ALL of the hearts are still there - <u>13</u> of them.

Probability of drawing a heart from this deck of 51  = 13/51

In general, for the probability of event A <u>and then</u> event B, we multiply.

1/2 x 13/51 = 13/102

Find x, if the distance end points is (x,1) and (4,4) with the total distance is the square root of 10.
Alex Ar [27]
Okay, take a look at diagram 1 (I know it's rubbish I did it on paint :D), this shows all the information you've given in the question. The two coordinates and the distance between them.

Now if we draw additional lines on this diagram, we can make a right-angled triangle (this is on diagram 2). We can also work out the lengths of the additional sides because we know both coordinates at the end-points of the additional lines.

Finally because this is a right-angled triangle, Pythagoras' theorem must apply to its sides meaning
( \sqrt{10} )^2 = (x-4)^2 + 3^2
10 = (x-4)^2 + 9
(x-4)^2 = 1 \Rightarrow x-4 = 1
therefore x=5.

What is the value of x in the linear equation below?<br><br><br> 4+3x-ax=9-7x+bx
Furkat [3]

Answer:

x = 5/(10 - a - b)

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

4 + 3 x - a x = 9 - 7 x + b x

Collect in terms of x:

x (3 - a) + 4 = 9 - 7 x + b x

Collect in terms of x:

x (3 - a) + 4 = x (b - 7) + 9

Subtract (b - 7) x + 4 from both sides:

x (10 - a - b) = 5

Divide both sides by 10 - a - b:

Answer:  x = 5/(10 - a - b)

The graph function g(x) is a transformation of the graph of function f(x)=x^2. g(x)=
emmasim [6.3K]
<span>A)2x^2+3   is a transformation of f(x)=x^2:  Stretch the graph vertically by a factor of 2 and then shift the entire resulting graph up by 3 units.  The graph will still look like a parabola that opens up.

</span>B)-2x^2-3   is a transformation of f(x)=x^2:  Stretch the graph vertically by a factor of 2, reflect the resulting graph in the x-axis, and then shift the entire resulting graph down by 3 units.  The graph will still look like a parabola that opens down.
<span>
Answers to C and D are very similar, except that we compress the graph of x^2 v ertically by a factor of (1/2).

None of these A, B, C, D is wrong.
