Answer:

  • 2 1/4 pounds of blueberries

Step-by-step explanation:

Blueberries - b, raspberries - x

<u>Equations as per question:</u>

  • b = x * 1/5
  • b + 1 4/5 = x

<u>Eliminate b and solve for x:</u>

  • 1/5x = x - 1 4/5
  • x - 1/5x = 1 4/5
  • 4/5x = 9/5
  • x = 9/5 : 4/5
  • x = 9/5 *5/4
  • x = 9/4
  • x = 2 1/4

What are the coordinates of the midpoint of the segment whose endpoints are (-4,6) and (-8,-2)
umka2103 [35]
The formula to find the midpoint of a segment is ((x1 + x2)/2,),(y1 + y2)/2).

The x coordinate of the first point is -4, and the x coordinate of the second point is -8.  The y coordinate of the first point is 6, and the y coordinate of the second point is -2.  Now, we can plug these into our formula.

((-4 + (-8))/2), (6 + (-2))/2)) = (-12/2), (4/2) = (-6, 2)

So, (-6, 2) is the midpoint of the segment.

A water wheel has a radius measuring between 13 feet and 24 feet. The wheel is able to turn 7π9 radians from its starting positi
madam [21]

Answer:

31.76 ft and 58.64 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The radius measures between 13 feet and 24 feet.

The wheel is able to turn 7π/9 radians before getting stuck.

We need to find the range of distances that the wheel could spin before getting stuck. That is, the length of arc.

Length of an arc is given as:

L = \frac{\theta}{2\pi} * 2\pi r

where θ = central angle = 7π/9 radians

r = radius of the circle

Therefore, for 13 feet:

L = \frac{7\pi}{18 \pi} * 2 * \pi * 13\\\\L = 31.76 ft

For 24 feet:

L = \frac{7\pi}{18 \pi} * 2 * \pi * 24\\\\L = 58.64 ft

The wheel could spin between 31.76 ft and 58.64 ft before getting stuck.

\bold{\text{Answer:\qquad }b)\quad \bigg(\dfrac{1}{2},-2\bigg)}

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

The vertex form of an absolute value equation is: f(x)=|x-h|+k where

(h, k) is the vertex. In the given equation, f(x)=\bigg|x-\dfrac{1}{2}\bigg|-2, the h-value is 1/2 and the k-value is -2.

So, the vertex (h, k) = (1/2, -2)
