Answer: The number of small cookies sold = 75

Step-by-step explanation:

GIven: Yesterday, the store sold 7 large cookies for every 5 small cookies.

Let 7x be the number of cookies and 5x be the number of small cookies.  (i)

They sold 30 more large cookies than small cookies.

i.e. 7x-5x=30           (Using (i))

\Rightarrow\ 2x=30\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{30}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=15

Thus, the number of small cookies sold = 5 (15)=75   (Using (i))

Hence, the number of small cookies sold = 75

<span>5t=3b+660....and ... 2t+5b=450

from the first we can see that t=(3b+660)/5 and using this value in the second...

(6b+1320)/5+5b=450 making all have common denominator..

6b+1320+25b=2250

31b=930

b=30...and since 2t+5b=450

t=150</span>

How is the graph of the parent function y=x² transformed to produce the graph of y=3(x+1)²?
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

Always the easiest way to study these questions is to get a graph. The one below shows

Red: y = x^2

Blue: y= 3(x + 1)^2

You will notice that (x+1)^2 shifts the graph Left -- the opposite to what you might think.

The 3 is a little harder. It narrows the red mother graph. Which choice says that?

The choice is between b and d. Why. Because the blue graph is to the left of the red one.

You have to learn the meaning of compressed. A better word might be narrows.

Answer

B

If one kg. of potatoes costs $4.99, what would 1.8 kg cost?
lina2011 [118]
You can use the proportion.
$4.99 / 1 kg = x / 1.8 kg
x = ($4.99 * 1.8 kg) / 1 kg
x = $8.98

Therefore, in 1.8 kg of potatoes, it costs at $8.98

Which equation is true? I. (32 ÷ 8 – 2)6 = (32 – 1)2 II. 72 ÷ 9·4 = 62 ÷ (6 + 3) II only Neither I nor II I only I and II
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer: The answer is (b) Neither I nor II.


Step-by-step explanation: We are given two equations and we need to find which is true. Since it is a simple algebraic question, so we just need to follow BODMAS rule to check the equations.

The equations are as follows -  

(I)~~L.H.S=(\dfrac{32}{8}-2)6=(4-2)6=2\times 6=12.

R.H.S=(32-1)2=31\times 2=62.

Since L.H.S ≠ R.H.S, so this equation is not correct.

(II)~~L.H.S=\dfrac{72}{9\times 4}=2.

R.H.S=\dfrac{62}{6+3}=\dfrac{62}{9}.

Since L.H.S ≠ R.H.S, so this equation is also not correct.

Thus, the correct option is (b) Neither I nor II.

If CE bisects ZBCD and if m ZBCE = 3x - 6
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

m∠BCD = 90°

∠BCD is a right angle

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>If a ray bisects an angle, that means it divides the angle into two equal parts in measure</em>

∵ Ray CE bisects ∠BCD

→ Means divide it into two angles BCE and ECD which equal in measures

∴ m∠BCE = m∠ECD = \frac{1}{2} m∠BCD

∵ m∠BCE = 3x - 6

∵ m∠ECD = 2x + 11

→ Equate them to find x

∴ 3x - 6 = 2x + 11

→ Add 6 to both sides

∵ 3x - 6 + 6 = 2x + 11 + 6

∴ 3x = 2x + 17

→ Subtract 2x from both sides

∵ 3x - 2x = 2x - 2x + 17

∴ x = 17

∵ m∠BCE =  \frac{1}{2} m∠BCD

→ Substitute x in the measure of ∠BCE to find it, then use it to

   find m∠BCD

∵ m∠BCE = 3(17) - 6 = 51 - 6

∴  m∠BCE = 45°

∵ 45 = \frac{1}{2} m∠BCD

→ Multiply both sides by 2

∴ 90 = m∠BCD

∴ m∠BCD = 90°

→ The measure of the acute angle is less than 90°, the measure of

   the obtuse angle is greater than 90°, and the measure of the

   right angle is 90°

∴ ∠BCD is a right angle
