Answer:
140
Step-by-step explanation:
If 8 out of 10 are carrying a briefcase, that means 2 out of 10 are not carrying one.
Use a proportion to find how many don't have a briefcase with 700 people
Let x represent the number of people without a briefcase:
=
Cross multiply and solve for x
10x = 1400
x = 140
So, 140 people do not have a briefcase

Answer:
The graph in the attached figure
Step-by-step explanation:
we have
isolate the variable y
Divide by -4 both sides
Remember
When you multiply or divide both sides of an inequality by a negative number, you must reverse the inequality symbol
so
The solution of the inequality is the shaded area above the dashed line
The slope of the dashed line is positive m=1/4
The y-intercept of the dashed line is (0,0)
The x-intercept of the dashed line is (0,0)
using a graphing tool
The graph in the attached figure
Evaluate the function at the three values of the range and see what you get. The appropriate choice is ...
... D) {15, 3, 0}
_____
Evaluation can sometimes be simpler if you rearrange the function to a form called "Horner's form."
... f(x) = (x -4)x +3
Then the evaluation looks like (for x=-2) ...
... f(-2) = (-2-4)(-2)+3 = (-6)(-2) +3 = 12 +3 = 15
This is sufficient to identify D as the answer of choice.
Answer: 64
Step-by-step explanation:
256 is thesame thing as 2 raise to power of 8.
We then multiply 2 raise to power 8 by the power of 3/4. We will then be left with 2 raise to power 6.
2 raise to power 6 equals:
= 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2
= 64
