Answer:

5/12 of a pound or 0.42 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

$1 is 12 times less than $12. So, if the amount of money is divided by 12, than the amount of apples you can buy is also divided by 12:

5/12 = 0.42

You can buy 5/12 of a pound or approximately 0.42 pounds of apples for $1.

Answer:

5/12 or 0.41666667 pound

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up the equation as 5/12=x/1 and cross multiply. Then you will get 12x=5. Divide both sides by 12 and then you will get 5/12.

Sin(-x)= -cos x for all values of x. True or false
kogti [31]

Answer:

That's incorrect. The simplest way to show this is by evaluating the functions at a given point. Let's say x=0, then:

Sin(-x) = Sin(0) = 0

-cos x = -cos (0) = -1

Therefore, Sin(-x)≠-cos x.

How many x-intercepts does the graph of each quadratic equation have? Show your work.
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In each case we find the discriminant b^2 - 4ac.

If the discriminant is negative, we have two unequal, complex roots.

If the discriminant is zero. we have two equal, real roots.

If the discriminant is positive, we  have two unequal real roots.

#51:  8v^2 - 12v + 9:  the discriminant is (-12)^2 - 4(8)(9) = -144.  we have two unequal, complex roots

#52:  (-11)^2 - 4(4)(-14) = 121 + 224 = 345.  we  have two unequal real roots.

#53:  (-5)^2 - 4(7)(6) = 25 - 168 (negative).  we have two unequal, complex roots.

#54:  (4)^2 - 16 = 0.  We have two equal, real roots.

8x – 3 = -19<br><br>Who give it fast they have branliest <br>Give the correct answer step by step​
lakkis [162]

Answer:

<h2>x= -2</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

8x - 3 =  - 19

Collect like terms and simplify

8x =  - 19 + 3 \\ 8x =  - 16

Divide both sides of the equation by 8

\frac{8x}{8}  =  \frac{ - 16}{8}

Simplify

x =  - 2
