Answer:

m - 7.50 = 12.50

and

m = 7.50 + 12.50

Step-by-step explanation:

The best answers would be:

m - 7.50 = 12.50

and

m = 7.50 + 12.50

First of all, let's figure out what the question is asking us:

The question is asking us to find the amount of money on the gift card

It tells us to use "m" for "the amount of money on the gift card"

Now that we know the following, we can put together the equation

m = the amount of money on the gift card

$7.50 = cost of the book

$12.50 = amount remaining

Since he receives the gift card and then buys a book that costs $7.50, we are going to "have to subtract $7.50 from m". And we know that $12.50 is remaining, so we "make the equation equal to 12.50".

So, let's set up the equation:

m - 7.50 = 12.50

Now that we know the equation, we can solve for "m"

m - 7.50 = 12.50

Step 1: Add 7.50 to both sides.

m − 7.50 7.50 = 12.50 + 7.50

Step 2: Simplify

Answer: m = 20

Another way you can set up this equation is:

m = 7.50 + 12.50

Because we want to find "m", we set it equal to the equation. Since Salim bought a book for $7.50 and had $12.50 remaining, we want to find how much he had on the gift card that made him have $12.50 remaining when he bought the book. So, we have to add 7.50 and 12.50, to find how much is on the gift card.

So, the equation "m = 7.50 + 12.50", makes sense when solving for "m"

Hint: Once you have realized that the equation has Like Terms on the same side you must Combine the Like Terms by either adding them together or subtracting them.

Now that we know the equation, let's solve it

m = 7.50 + 12.50

Step 1: Combine like terms

m = (7.50 + 12.50)

m = 20

Since both equations equal $20 and both make sense, we can conclude that these are the best options.

Which represents the number of times all outcomes less than a given outcome occur? cumulative frequency relative frequency frequ

max2010maxim [7]

Answer: cumulative frequency

Step-by-step explanation:

A frequency is the number of times a data value occurs.
A relative frequency is the fraction or proportion of times an answer occurs.

The cumulative frequency analysis is the analysis of the frequency of occurrence of values of a phenomenon less than a reference value.

In a data set, the cumulative frequency for a value x is the total number of scores that are less than or equal to x.

Hence, cumulative frequency represents the number of times all outcomes less than a given outcome occur.

The following data was collected on a cheetah its ran 1/2 mile in 2/3 min,1/4 in 1/3 min,and 3/4 mike in 1 min. Explain how you

svp [43]

Proportional means equal, by the way.

I know that this is a proportional relationship because, if you really look at it, you can see the equality between the three pieces of data. 1/2 = 2/4, and 2/4 mile in 2/3 minute... Divide those two numerators by 2/2 and you get the next data piece. Now, multiply the second data piece by 3/3, and you get the third piece.

Now, look at the numbers I told you to multiply/divide by. They all equal 1. In other words, the only difference between them is the time, the unit rate of the distance (1/4 mile/1/3 min) remains the same.

Maths functions <br> please help!

Vlad [161]

Answer:

$\textsf{1)} \quad f(x)=-x+3$

2) A = (3, 0) and C = (-3, 0)

$\textsf{3)} \quad g(x)=x^2-9$

4) AC = 6 units and OB = 9 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given functions:

$\begin{cases}f(x)=mx+c\\g(x)=ax^2+b \end{cases}$

Given points:

H = (-1, 4)
T = (4, -1)

As points H and T lie on f(x), substitute the two points into the function to create two equations:

$\textsf{Equation 1}: \quad f(-1)=m(-1)+c=4 \implies -m+c=4$

$\textsf{Equation 2}: \quad f(4)=m(4)+c=-1 \implies 4m+c=-1$

Subtract the first equation from the second to eliminate c:

$\begin{array}{r l} 4m+c & = -1\\- \quad -m+c & = \phantom{))}4\\\cline{1-2}5m \phantom{))))}}& = -5}\end{aligned}$

Therefore m = -1.

Substitute the found value of m and one of the points into the function and solve for c:

$\implies f(4)=-1(4)+c=-1$

$\implies c=-1-(-4)=3$

Therefore the equation for function f(x) is:

$f(x)=-x+3$

Function f(x) crosses the x-axis at point A. Therefore, f(x) = 0 at point A.

To find the x-value of point A, set f(x) to zero and solve for x:

$\implies f(x)=0$

$\implies -x+3=0$

$\implies x=3$

Therefore, A = (3, 0).

As g(x) = ax² + b, its axis of symmetry is x = 0.

A parabola's axis of symmetry is the midpoint of its x-intercepts.

Therefore, if A = (3, 0) then C = (-3, 0).

Points on function g(x):

A = (3, 0)
G = (1, -8)

Substitute the points into the given function g(x) to create two equations:

$\textsf{Equation 1}: \quad g(3)=a(3)^2+b=0 \implies 9a+b=0$

$\textsf{Equation 2}: \quad g(1)=a(1)^2+b=-8 \implies a+b=-8$

Subtract the second equation from the first to eliminate b:

$\begin{array}{r l} 9a+b & = \phantom{))}0\\- \quad a+b & =-8\\\cline{1-2}8a \phantom{))))}}& = \phantom{))}8}\end{aligned}$

Therefore a = 1.

Substitute the found value of a and one of the points into the function and solve for b:

$\implies g(3)=1(3^2)+b=0$

$\implies 9+b=0\implies b=-9$

Therefore the equation for function g(x) is:

$g(x)=x^2-9$

The length AC is the difference between the x-values of points A and C.

$\implies x_A-x_C=3-(-3)=6$

Point B is the y-intercept of g(x), so when x = 0:

$\implies g(0)=(0)^2-9=-9$

Therefore, B = (0, -9).

The length OB is the difference between the y-values of the origin and point B.

$\implies y_O-y_B=0-(-9)=9$

Therefore, AC = 6 units and OB = 9 units
