3/4x + 3 - 2x = -1/4 + 1/2x + 5

Put in terms of 4 as denominator
3/4x + 12/4 - 8/4x = -1/4 + 2/4x + 20/4

Combine like terms
-5/4x + 12/4 = 2/4x + 19/4

Simplify
12/4 = 7/4x + 19/4
-7/4 = 7/4x
x = -1 :)

Check:
3/4(-1) + 3 - 2(-1) = -1/4 + 1/2(-1) + 5
-3/4 + 3 + 2 = -1/4 - 1/2 + 5
-3/4 + 5 = -3/4 + 5
-3/4 = -3/4 :)

mariarad [96]

Answer:

10 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the Perimeter fo a rectangle

= P = 2L + 2W

Where:

L = Length

W = Width

From the question

P = 80 feet

W = 30 feet

Hence:

80 = 2L + 2(30)

80 - 2(30) = 2L

80 - 60 = 2L

20 = 2L

L = 20/2

L = 10 feet

Hence, the length of the fenced area = 10 feet

A student says that the x-intercept of a line is (0,-10,). Is the student correct? Explain.

nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

Yes, the student is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$(0,-10)$

Required

Does it represent the x intercept

At the x intercept, the value of x is 0.

So, the function $(x,y)$ becomes $(0,y)$

$(0,-10)$ can be compared to $(0,y)$

Hence, the student is correct

A nursery has 10 tree seedlings to give out at 2 workshops. It wants to give out a minimum of 2 seedlings at each workshop. How

11111nata11111 [884]

We are given total 10 tree seedlings.

Number of workshops = 2.

Here order doesn't matters.

<em>When order doesn't matters we apply combination.</em>

We know formula of combination:

$C(n,r) = \frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}$

For the given situation, we have

n=10 and r=2.

Plugging values in formula, we get

$\frac{10!}{2!(10-8)!} = \frac{10\times 9\times8!}{2!8!}$

$\frac{10 \times 9}{2} = \frac{90}{2} =45$

<h3>Therefore, 45 different ways can the nursery give out seedlings.</h3>
