Answer:

52 roses and 117 sunflowers

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the ratio of roses to sunflowers is 4:9, we can represent how many there are of each as 4x and 9x, respectively. We know that there are 65 more sunflowers than roses, so we can set up the following equation to solve for x:

4x+65=9x

Solving for x, we get:

4x+65=9x

4x+65-4x=9x-4x (Subtract 4x from both sides of the equation to isolate x)

65=5x (Simplify)

5x=65 (Symmetric Property of Equality)

\frac{5x}{5}=\frac{65}{5} (Divide both sides of the equation by 5 to get rid of x's coefficient)

x=13 (Simplify)

Therefore, since x=13, we know that there are 4x=4*13=52 roses and 9x=9*13=117 sunflowers. Hope this helps!

Two number cubes are rolled.
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

When two number cubes  are rolled,

Sample space= Total Possible outcome {11,22,33,44,55,66,12,21,13,31,14,41,15,51,16,61,23,32,24,42,25,52,26,62,34,43,35,53,36,63,45,54,46,64,56,65}=36

Probability of an event = \frac{\text{Total favorable outcome}}{\text{Total possible outcome}}

Sum of 4 is obtained when ={13,31,22}=3

Probability of getting 4 when 2 number cubes are rolled= \frac{3}{36}=\frac{1}{12}

Sum of the numbers is greater than 9= 10, 11,12={55,64,46,56,65,66}=6

Probability of getting(Sum of the numbers is greater than 9)=\frac{6}{36}=\frac{1}{6}

Does anyone know the minim value of the function f(x) =2x^2 -4x -6?. I’m online due to my quarantine and am looking for extra he
navik [9.2K]

Answer:

f(x) = - 8

Explanation:

The given function is

f(x) =2x^2 -4x -6

The first step is to find the derivative of the function. Recall, if

y = ax^b

y' = abx^(b - 1)

Thus,

f'(x) = 4x - 4

We would equate f'(x) to zero and solve for x. We have

4x - 4 = 0

4x = 4

x = 4/4

x = 1

We would substitute x = 1 into the original function and solve for f(x) or y. It becomes

f(1) =2(1)^2 -4(1) - 6 = 2 - 4 - 6

f(1) = - 8

Thus, the minimum value is f(x) = - 8
