She is incorrect cause if we take the number 20 and take 25% of it it equals 5 so now 20 is only 15. They if we take 75% away from 20 is equals 15 so then we only have 5 from 20 left. Therefore she’s incorrect because 75% leaves 5/20 and 25% leaves 15/20. Hope that makes sense.

The functions f(x)=−3/4x+2 1/4 and g(x)=(1/2)^x+1 are shown in the graph.
Svet_ta [14]
-3x/4 + 9/4 = (1/2)^x + 1
-3x/4 - 2^-x = -5/4

(Using log rules)

㏑|-3x/4| - ㏑|2^-x| = ㏑|-5/4|
㏑|3x/4| - x㏑|2| = ㏑|5/4|
e^㏑|3x/4| - e^㏑|2|x = e^㏑|5/4|
|3x/4| - 2x = 5/4
|3x| - 8x = 5
|3x-8x| = 5
|-5x| = 5
|5x| = 5
x=1, -1

Please help, basic Algebra question
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

The given expression  (\frac{5}{6} a^{9}p^{5})  ^{3} = \frac{125}{216}  \times a^{(27) } \times p^{(15)}

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given expression is:  (\frac{5}{6} a^{9}p^{5})  ^{3}

Now, starting from the outer most bracket.

As we know :

(abc)^{n}   = (a)^{n} \times (b)^{n}  \times (c)^{n}

and (a^m)^{n} = a^{(m \times n)}

⇒ (\frac{5}{6} a^{9}p^{5})  ^{3} = (\frac{5}{6})^{3} \times (a^{9})^{3}   \times (p^{5}) ^{3}\\

=\frac{125}{216}  \times (a)^{(9\times3) } \times (p)^{(5 \times 3)}\\= \frac{125}{216}  \times a^{(27) } \times p^{(15)}

Hence, the given expression  (\frac{5}{6} a^{9}p^{5})  ^{3} = \frac{125}{216}  \times a^{(27) } \times p^{(15)}

A farmhouse shelters 16 animals, some are pigs, and some are ducks. Altogether there are 42 legs. How many pigs are there?
zalisa [80]

Answer:

5 pigs

Step-by-step explanation:

A farmhouse shelters 16 animals, some are pigs, and some are ducks. Altogether there are 42 legs. How many pigs are there?

Let us represent:

Number of pigs = x

Number of ducks = y

Our system of equations is given as:

A farmhouse shelters 16 animals, some are pigs, and some are ducks.

x + y = 16...... Equation 1

x = 16 - y

Altogether there are 42 legs.

Ducks have 2 legs(feet) , pigs have 4 legs,

4x + 2y = 42..... Equation 2

We substitute

16 - y for x in Equation 2

Hence:

4(16 - y) + 2y = 42

64 - 4y + 2y = 42

Collect like terms

- 4y + 2y = 42 - 64

-2y =- 22

y = -22/-2

y = 11 ducks

Solving for x.

x = 16 - y

x = 16 - 11

x = 5 pigs

Therefore, we have 5 pigs
