Answer:

Just because Michelle checked out 20% of her borrowed books were fictions does not mean Michael had more books. For example, Michelle could have borrowed 100 books, which would result into her borrowing 20 fiction books while Michael could have borrowed just 1 fiction book with a 100% of his borrowed books being a fiction book.

Step-by-step explanation:

Just because Michelle checked out 20% of her borrowed books were fictions does not mean Michael had more books. For example, Michelle could have borrowed 100 books, which would result into her borrowing 20 fiction books while Michael could have borrowed just 1 fiction book with a 100% of his borrowed books being a fiction book.

In other words, percentage is just the simplied ratio of something. Percentage cannot account for the original value and its original value cannot be assumed that it is small just because the percentage is small.

Find the domain of the graphed function.
Darya [45]

The domain of the graphed function is [-3, 2)

<h3>How to determine the domain and the range?</h3>

From the given graph, we have the following highlights:

  • Minimum x value = -3 (closed circle)
  • Maximum x value = 2 (open circle)

Open circles are represented with () while closed circles are represented with []

Hence, the domain of the graphed function is [-3, 2)

Someone please help me on number 3 and if the others are wrong please let me know ITS MULTI STEP EQUATION COMBINING LIKE TERMS
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

#1: x = 3; #2 c = 1/2; #3 = x = 22; #4 is correct (x = -8)

Step-by-step explanation:

for the first equation everything was right until 22x = 66

after

22x = 66

you must divide everything by 22

x = 3

that is for #1

for the second equation you copied down the question wrong

the negative is still there

6c - 8 - 2c = -6

combine 6c and -2c

4c - 8 = -6

the negative remains on the 8

add 8 to both sides

4c = 2

divide 4 to both sides

c = 2/4 or just 1/2

for the third equation you must first combine like terms

-3x + 25 + x + 21 = 2

combine -3x and x & 25 and 21

-3x + x = -2x

25 + 21 = 46

-2x + 46 = 2

then subtract 46 from both sides

-2x = -44

now divide both sides by -2

x = 22

that is your answer

number four should be correct

K/6+8=5                           C/2+5=1
K/6=-3                              C/2=-4
K=-18                               C=-8

9+A/6=8                          D/4-9=-3
A/6=-1                             D/4=6
A=-6                                D=24

This is a special product factorization.
If the first term is a perfect square, the last term is a perfect square, and the middle term is twice the product of their square roots then you get the form
(a + b)^2.
SO....(5x + 9)^2 or (5x +9)(5x +9)
