Let the number of comic books be X
if we add 14 to X = 24
so we will find the value of X to get half initial number of comic books William had.
14+X=24
X=24-14
X=10
so the total innitial number of comic books William had is 10+10=20 books.
I hope you don't find the solution too messy. If there is anything you don't get. Let me know and I will explain it:
Answer:
Option B is correct, i.e. The amount of water originally in Wilson's can was 2.5 gallons.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given is the graph of Amount of water (in gallons) v/s Time (in seconds).
It is a linear graph whose general equation is given as follows:-
y=mx+b.
Where y = Amount of water, x = Time, m = slope, b = y-intercept (when time is zero).
Finding slope of line, m = (2.3 - 2.5)/(1 - 0) = -0.2 gallons per second.
Finding y-intercept of line, b = 2.5 gallons (at t=0).
Hence, option B is correct, i.e. The amount of water originally in Wilson's can was 2.5 gallons.
Answer:
B) y² = 4x; There are two outputs for each input
Step-by-step explanation:
For an equation to be called a function, the input values for x must only result in a single output for y.
Based on this definition if a function, the functions y = x², y = -x and y = x are all functions because for any value of x imputed in them, we can only get one equivalent value of y.
The only exception is the function y²= 4x
For this function, for any value of x, there will be more than one output for y. Take x = 1 for example
y² = 4(1)
y² = 4
y = ±√4
y = ±2
This shows that y = 2 and -2
Also if x = 4
y² = 4(4)
y² = 16
y = ±√16
y = ±4
y = 4 and -4
No matter the value of x imputed, the output value y will always be two (a positive and a negative value)
Hence, option B is correct.
Answer:
The answer is 3.64m
This is because if you draw a diagram, and label all the sides of the triangle (opp, hyp, adj), the adjacent angle is 3m. You can now use the sine rule to find the hypotenuse (length of ladder) by doing: cos 30= 3/h. You divide cos 30 by 3 and you get the answer of 3.64m rounding to 2 decimal places.
