Answer:

option C is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that Jack and Jillian sell apples at a produce stand .

We are given that an expression which shows Jack's earning=2x-8

We have to find that first term what represent in the given expression

Jillian earns for each bag  of apples she sells=$2

Let Jillian sold number of bags of apples =x

Then ,Jillian earn total at the end of the week =2\timesx=$2x

Jack has earned $ 8 less than Jillian earn

Therefore, total earning of jack=2x-8

In the given expression the first term 2x represent the earning of Jillian.

Hence, option C is true.

Answer:

The first term (2x) represents Jillian's earnings at the end of the week. Where the 2 represents the amount of money she earns per pag, and the 'x' is the number of bags sold.

Let us explain this with an example: if Jillian sells 36 bags, then she will earn 2×36 = $72

andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

184.86 sq. cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

The following triangular prism has a base that is a right triangle.  

We need to describe the net of this triangular prism.

The need of triangular prism contains three rectangles and two congruent right angles as shown in the below figure.

Now, using the net we have to find the surface area of the prism.

Area of a rectangle is

Area=length\times width

A_1=4.3\times 10=43

A_2=6.75\times 10=67.5

A_3=5.2\times 10=52

Area of a triangle is  

Area=\dfrac{1}{2}\times base\times height

A_4=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 4.3\times 5.2=11.18

A_5=A_4=11.18

So, total area is

A=A_1+A_2+A_3+A_4+A_5

A=43+67.5+52+11.18+11.18=184.86

Therefore, the surface area of the prism is 184.86 sq. cm.

Students at Mendel Middle School are planning a fair for their school's fundraiser. Liam volunteers to help plan the event. The
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

15 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

x is the number of hours that Liam volunteered in the first month

The next month he volunteered 1\dfrac{2}{3} times the time he volunteered the first month.

Total time he volunteered in the two months is 40 hours so

x+1\dfrac{2}{3}x=40\\\Rightarrow x+\dfrac{5}{3}x=40\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{3x+5x}{3}=40\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{40\times 3}{8}\\\Rightarrow x=15

Time he volunteered in the first month is 15 hours.

Solve. x/2 ≤ -4<br><br> a. x ≤ -2<br> b. x ≥ -2<br> c. x ≤ -8<br> d. x ≥ -8
Aloiza [94]

Answer: Choice C,  x ≤ -8

x is less than or equal to -8

put another way, x can be -8 or it can be smaller than -8

===============================================

We have some unknown number x, and we divide it by 2. The result is -4 or smaller. To find possible values for x, we need to solve for it. To do this, we multiply both sides by 2. Multiplication will undo division.

On the left side, the x/2 turns into x after you multiply it by 2.

On the right side, the -4 turns into -8 after you multiply it by 2

So that's how we go from x/2 ≤ -4 to x ≤ -8

Extra info: To graph this on a number line, plot a filled in closed circle at -8 on the number line. Then shade to the left of the closed circle. The closed circle says "include this value in the solution set". The shaded region represents all the values smaller than -8, eg the value -10.

The graph below represents the function f(x), and the table below represents the function g(x).
Serggg [28]
Correct answer:
<span>"The maximum value of g(x) is greater than the minimum value of f(x)."

The maximum value of g(x) is -1 (looking at the table, is the higher number for the g(x) entry), and the minimum value of f(x) is -3 (looking at the graph is the lower y/f(x) you can point on it). So, the maximum value of g(x) is indedd greater than the minimum value of f(x).</span>
