Sophia is 12 years old. Her Uncle Reynald tells her that if she adds 5 to her age, multiplies the sum by 3, and then subtracts 4

from the product, she will find his age. She tells him that his age equals the expression 12 + 5 × 3 − 4 . Is Sophia correct? Choose the correct answers from the drop-down menus. Sophia is Choose... . Her uncle's actual age is Choose... .

Answer:

Her uncle's age = 47 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Sophia = 12 years old

Her Uncle Reynald tells her that if she adds 5 to her age,

= 12 + 5

multiplies the sum by 3

= (12 + 5) × 3

and then subtracts 4 from the product

= {(12 + 5) × 3} - 4

she will find his age

{(12 + 5) × 3} - 4

= (17 × 3) - 4

= 51 - 4

= 47

Her uncle's age = 47 years

Sophia wrote:

12 + 5 × 3 − 4

Using PEMDAS

P - product

E - exponent

M - multiplication

D - division

A - addition

S - subtraction

Sophia's expression can be written as = 12+(5*3)-4

= (12 + 15) - 4

= 27 - 4

= 23

Sophia's expression is wrong

For problems 29 - 31 the graph of a quadratic function y=ax^2 + bx + c is shown. Tell whether the discriminant of ax^2 + bx + c
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

29) discriminant  is positive

30) discriminant  is 0

31) discriminant  is negative

Step-by-step explanation:

the graph of a quadratic function y=ax^2 + bx + c is shown. Tell whether the discriminant of ax^2 + bx + c = 0 is positive, negative, or zero.

In the graph of question number 29 we can see that the graph intersects the x axis at two points

so the equation has 2 solutions.

When the equation has two solution then the discriminant is positive

In the graph of question number 30 we can see that the graph intersects the x axis at only one point

so the equation has only  1 solution.

When the equation has only one solution then the discriminant is equal to 0

In the graph of question number 30 we can see that the graph does not intersects the x axis  

so the equation has 2 imaginary solutions.

When the equation has two imaginary solutions then the discriminant is negative

Dan invests £18790 into his bank account. He receives 5,3% per year simple
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

697109 pennies

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you use the formula A = P (1 + rt).

R= rate which is 5.3%

T= time which is 7 years.

P is the principle which is 18790

A= is the answer

so first you multiply 7*5.3% which you get 0.371

then you multiply that with 18790 which then you get 6971.09

if you want pennies you multiply it with 100 to get 697109
