Answer:

Money Possessed by Liam = $ 250

→Cost of Present , that Liam and his Classmate bought for their Teacher = $ 120

→Amount that Liam Paid for the present , is half of total Amount which is equal to,

$=\frac{120}{2}=60$ $

Money Left with Liam

=$ 250 -$ 60

=$ 190

The equation is:
250 - (120 ÷ x)

I hope this helps! :D

A student is running a 5-kilometer race. He runs 1 kilometer every 3 minutes. Select the function that describes his distance fr

Rom4ik [11]

Alright, so we know that the race is 5 kilometers, so the equation will be 5-<some value>= <distance from finish line>. We also know that the student runs a kilometer every three minutes, so 3x=1km . Multiplying both sides by 5, we get 15y=5km (y being the number to make the equation make sense, or the slope). When the student has run 5km, the distance from the student to the finish line should be 0, so we get that 5-5=0, and plugging 15y in for 5 we get 5-15y=0. For 15x to equal 5, 3y=1 and y=1/3. Therefore, we plug that in for y, getting 5-15(1/3)=0. However, we have to make it for all times! Since 15 represents the minutes, we make that x, and since 0 represents the distance remaining, we make that the distance remaining, making it 5-(1/3)x=distance left. You can also think of y as the slope in y=mx+b - it stays constant that way.

The graph models the function y = −x2 − x + 6. Which attribute(s) of the graph tell you the root(s) of the function? Determine t

Alex73 [517]

In a graph the roots of the function are given by the cut points with the x axis.
On the other hand, we have the following equation:
y = -x2 - x + 6
To find the roots, we equate to zero:
-x2 - x + 6 = 0
Rewriting we have:
x2 + x - 6 = 0
(x-2) (x + 3) = 0
The roots are:
x1 = 2
x2 = -3
Answer:
The roots are:
x1 = 2
x2 = -3
