Write an expression to represent: Nine minus the quotient of two and a number x.

2 answers:

5 0

Lets break it down:

I think “nine minus” is clear — it starts off with “9 - something”.

Now, a quotient is the result of division. For example, the quotient of 10/5 is 2, or the quotient of 16/2 is 8. Since in the phrase “quotient of two and x” two comes first, we are diving 2 by x. This is the quotient (2/x).

So to add it all together:

9 - 2/x would be your expression.

Answer: Refer to picture

Explanation: as the weeks go on, the number of sales increase. This means it has to be positively skewed, so graphs with the dots lower as it moves to the right can be knocked out

This leaves us with 2, since the rate of change in sales isn’t linear (22 -> 44 ->66) and is instead quicker at the start, it is not the straight graph, must be the curved one

What is the estimate of the sum of 125, 123, 392 and 294 using front end estimation?

kipiarov [429]

Front end estimation for this question would be to the nearest hundred. So 125 rounded to the nearest hundred is 100, 123 to the nearest hundred is 100, 392 to the nearest hundred is 400, and 294 to the nearest hundred is 300. Adding 100 + 100 + 400 + 300 would be 900.

A rectangular garden is fenced on three sides with a wall forming the fourth

Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

The dimensions are 5 m by 20 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area = length * width = 100 m^2.

2 times the width + the length = 30 m.

So we have the equations:

wL = 100

2w + L = 30

From the first equation:

L = 100/w so substituting in the second equation, we have:

2w + 100/w = 30

Multiply through by w:

2w^2 + 100 = 30w

2w^2 - 30w + 100 = 0 Divide by 2:

w^2 - 15w + 50 = 0

(w - 5)(w - 10) =

w = 5 or 10m.

So L = 100/5 or 100/10

= 20 or 10.

As it is rectangular then w = 5 and L = 20.
