Answer:

S=H+2

Step-by-step explanation:

OK, so hailey is the variable H. And she is 2 years younger than her sister.

What is the age of her sister?

So we know it has to be, hailey's age + something? = age of her sister.

what is that +something? it's the number "2 years younger" so hailey's age; which is h, plus 2 is equal to her sister's age.

H+2=S

OK, why do we need to add 2? instead of minus two? Because hailey is 2 years younger than her sister, so you want hailey's age. If you were to minus 2, you'd be thinking that hailey is OLDER than her sister. Because if you want to her sister's age, you would have to SUBTRACT 2 because you are OLDER than her. So if you are younger than the sister, you would add to get your sister's age.

1/2 of Ila’s workspace is covered in paper. 1/3 of the paper is covered in yellow sticky notes. What fraction of Ila’s workspace

Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

$\frac{1}{6}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that 1/2 of Ila’s work-space is covered in paper. 1/3 of the paper is covered in yellow sticky notes.

Ila’s work-space is covered in yellow sticky notes would be 1/3 of 1/2.

$\text{Ila’s workspace is covered in yellow sticky notes}=\frac{1}{3}\times \frac{1}{2}$

$\text{Ila’s workspace is covered in yellow sticky notes}=\frac{1\times1}{3\times 2}$

$\text{Ila’s workspace is covered in yellow sticky notes}=\frac{1}{6}$

Therefore, $\frac{1}{6}$ of Ila’s workspace is covered in yellow sticky notes.

How is the graph of y=4(2)^x+3 translated from the graph of y=4(2)^x

Pie

Answer:

Vertical movement: Move up 3 units

or

Horizontal movement: Move left 3 units

Step-by-step explanation:

If your parent equation is $f(x) = 4(2)^{x}$ and your child equation is $f(x) = 4(2)^{x} + 3$ , then it has vertically moved up 3 units.

If your parent equation is $f(x) = 4(2)^{x}$ and your child equation is $f(x) = 4(2)^{x+3}$ , then it has moved horizontally left 3 units.

A bag of potatoes weights 30 lb. If 74% of a potato is water, how many pounds of water are there in the bag?

Nadya [2.5K]

Answer: There are 22.2 pounds of water in the bag.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we simply have to multiply the total weight of the bag by the water percentage in decimal form (divided by 100).

Mathematically speaking:

30 x (74/100) = 30 x 0.74 =22.2 pounds

There are 22.2 pounds of water in the bag.
