Answer: 5a + 2b

Step-by-step explanation:

She purchased 12a pounds of apples and she used 7a pounds, so that means 12a - 7a = 5a

She purchased 4b pounds of bananas and used 2b pounds, so that means 4b - 2b = 2b

Lisa is sitting on the dock beside the lake she drops a rock from her hand into the lake after the rock hits the surface of the

soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer: 4.2495 feets

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Rate of change (speed) when rock hits the lake surface = - 3in/s

Distance or depth after 5 seconds :

Distance = rate of change * time

Distance = (- 3 in/s × 5) = - 15 inches

1 inch = 0.0833 feet

15 inches = (-15 * 0.0833) = - 1.2495 feets

Distance between Lisa's hand and lake surface = 3 feets :

Distance between Lisa's hand and rock after 5 seconds :

(3 feets + 1.2495 feets) = 4.2495 feets

The length of a rectangle is 8 1/2 inches and the width is 3 1/4 inches. What is the ratio, using whole numbers, of the length t

frosja888 [35]

Short answer 34/13
Start by converting both to improper fractions.

8 1/2 = (2*8 + 1)/2 = 17/2

3 1/4 = (3*4 + 1)/4 = 13/4

Next set up a 4 layer fraction

$\dfrac{\dfrac{17}{2}}{\dfrac{13}{4} }$

Invert the lower fraction and multiply $\dfrac{17}{2}* \dfrac{4}{13}$

Cancel the 2 and the 4 leaving you with a 2 in the numerator. $\dfrac{17*2}{13} =\dfrac{34}{13}$

If f(x) =3x-5 them find values of f(3) and f(-7). please explain step by step

LenKa [72]

Answer:

f(3) = 4

f(-7) = -26

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

$f(x) =3x-5$

To find f(3), replace every x with 3:

$f(3) =3(3)-5\\f(3) =9-5\\f(3) =4$

Therefore, f(3)=4.

$f(x) =3x-5$

To find f(-7), replace every x with -7:

$f(-7) =3(-7)-5\\f(-7) =-21-5\\f(-7) =-26$

Therefore, f(-7)=-26.

I hope this helps!

Question 4 pleaseeeeeee

arsen [322]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Unit rate means one quantity in terms of another unit quantity. In the answer choices, we see that the denominator is always in terms of UNIT LITERS (1 L), so that means, we have to find gallons in terms of UNIT LITERS.

It means, we have to divide gallons by liters to get in terms of unitary liters.

Let's check the first line:

19.5/75 = 0.26 Gallons / 1 Liter

Now, checking 2nd:

39/150 = 0.26 Gallons / 1 Liter

So, yes, they are the same and other 2 lines would be the same as well. The unit rate is:

0.26 gal/1L

That's answer choice B
