A granola bite contains 27 calories. Most of the calories come from c grams of carbohydrates. The rest come from other ingredien

joja [24]

Answer:

a. 5 represents the number of calories that come from other ingredients.

b. Neither 8 nor 3 satisfy the given equation, so neither 8 nor 3 can be the solution to the equation.

c. c = 5.5

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the equation:

$4c + 5 = 27$

Where $c$ represents the grams of carbohydrates

27 is the total number of calories that are received by the granola bite.

4 is the number of calories from 1 gram of carbohydrates and

5 is the number of calories that are received from other ingredients.

Answer of Part a:

5 is the number of calories that are received from other ingredients.

Part b:

Let us take left hand side (LHS) and put values of c = 8 and 3 one by one.

So, LHS becomes:

4 \times 8 + 5 = 37 $\neq RHS\ i.e.\ 27$

4 \times 3 + 5 = 17 $\neq RHS\ i.e.\ 27$

So, Priya is correct that neither 8 or 3 could be solution.

Part c:

$4c + 5 = 27\\\Rightarrow 4c = 22\\\Rightarrow \bold{c = 5.5}$

So, solution to the equation is: c = 5.5

Apply the rule (-x, y - 2) to the following point, what is the result?

BaLLatris [955]

Answer: Second Choice. (3, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given point

(x, y) = (-3, 5)

Given the rule for application

(-x, y - 2)

Determine the new x-value

x = -3

-x = - (-3) = 3

Determine the new y-value

y = 5

y - 2 = (5) - 2 = 3

Therefore, the result is $\Large\boxed{(3,~3)}$

Hope this helps!! :)

Solve for a and x in ax^2=48

Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

$ax^2 = 48\\a = \frac{48}{x^2}$

$ax^2 = 48\\x^2 = \frac{48}{a} \\x = \frac{\sqrt{48} }{\sqrt{a} } \\x = \frac{4\sqrt{3} }{\sqrt{a}} \\x = \frac{4\sqrt{3a} }{a}$

Which of the following is a solution of x2 + 4x = −8?

Vladimir [108]

$x^{2}+4x = -8
\\\\
x^{2}+4x+8 = 0
\\\\
\Delta = b^{2}-4ac
\\\\
\Delta = (4)^{2}-4 \cdot (1) \cdot (8)
\\\\
\Delta = 16-32
\\\\
\Delta = -16$

There's no solution in the set of real numbers.

$\boxed{S = \{ \ \ \}}$
