Answer:
$1.60
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up an equation where you have the total oranges (o) on top and the cost (c) on the bottom. So you will have two fractions equaling each other. So you will have o/c=o/c. Now you just have to replace the variables with what you know. 9 oranges= $3.60, and you want to know how much 4 oranges cost. Since the cost per orange is the same, no matter how many oranges you buy if you divide the amount of oranges by the price you will always get the same number. So replace the variables with the numbers you know and you get,
9/$3.60=4/c
Now to solve an equal fraction problem, simply cross multiply (multiply the two numbers diagonal so 4 and 3.6), and divide (take the multiplied number and divide by the number remaining which will be the number diagonal from the variable) which gives you $1.60 for four oranges.
It is a rational number and it equals 0.5 or 1/2
There are two ways to approach this question. The first is to divide both sides of the equation by 1/4, which is the same as multiplying by 4.
4*(-10)=4*(1/4)(8y-12)
-40=1(8y-12)
-40=8y-12
-40+12=8y-12+12
-28=8y
-28/8=8y/8
-3.5=y
Another method is to distribute 1/4 to each term within the parentheses.
-10=8y*(1/4) - 12*(1/4)
-10=2y - 3
-10+3=2y - 3 +3
-7=2y
-7/2= 2y/2
-3.5=y

Answer:
graph A
Step-by-step explanation:
When looking at a graph, there are two different axes. The vertical values--marked by the center up/down line--are "y-values"; and this is called the "y-axis"
The horizontal values--marked by the left/right line--are "x-values"; and this is called the "x-axis"
For the x-axis, values to the left side of the origin (the place where the y-axis and x-axis intercept) are smaller than 0--they are all negative values.
Values to the right side of the origin are positive--greater than 0.
For the y-axis, positive numbers are on the top half [once again, the midpoint / 0 is where the two lines are both = to 0; the origin] and negative numbers are on the bottom half.
Ordered pairs (points) are written as (x,y)
(x-value, y-value)
We are looking for a graph that decreases (along the y-axis), hits a point below the origin, and goes flat/stays constant.
When a graph is decreasing (note: we read graphs from left to right), the line of the graph is slanted downwards (it looks like a line going down).
So, if we look at the graphs, we can see Graph A descending, crossing the y-axis {crossing the middle line /vertical line / y-axis} at a value of -7, and then staying constant (it is no longer increasing or decreasing because the y-values stay the same)
hope this helps!!
Answer:
Since we cannot find the square root of a negative number (at least not using the real number system), we cannot evaluate the formula any further. There will be no solutions. Use the discriminant to determine whether the quadratic equation has two, one, or no solutions. The result is a negative number. i really hope this helps u. good luck my dude
