Answer:

since we are not given the options, I will write down a few equations that represent the number of French bread loaves and bagels:

a = number of loaves of French bread
b = number of bagels
available amount of flour = 38

2a + b ≤ 38

2a ≤ 38 - b

a ≤ (38 - b) / 2

a ≤ 19 - 0.5b

b ≤ 38 - 2a

b ≤ 2(19 - a)

Hopefully one of these equations is one of the choices given to you.

For how many positive integers n is it possible to have a triangle with side lengths five, 12, and n

Andre45 [30]

Step-by-step explanation:

you know, a single side cannot be longer than the other 2 sides combined.

otherwise, the triangle cannot "close".

so, it starts with 12 cannot be longer than 5 + n.

therefore, n must be at least 7.

and n cannot be longer than 5+12 = 17

7 and 17 I would normally rule out a well, because in these cases the triangle would just be a flat line, when the 3rd side is as long as the other 2 combined.

so, in reality for a real, visible triangle, the range of valid values is 8 .. 16.

that is 9 positive integer values.

When you have two shapes to compare on a coordinate plane, you can determine the scale factor, knowing that the transformation w

musickatia [10]

Assume that the initial coordinates are (x,y) and that the dilated coordinates are (x',y').

The dilation is therefore:
(x,y) ............> (x',y')

Now, let's assume that the dilation factor is k.
Therefore:
x' = kx
y' = ky

Based on the above, all the student has to do is get the initial coordinates and the final ones and then substitute in any of the above two equations to get the value of k.

Example:
Assume an original point at (2,4) is dilated to coordinates (4,8). Find the dilation factor.
Assume the dilation coefficient is k.
(x,y) are (2,4) and (x',y') are (4,8)
Therefore:
x' = kx .........> 4 = k*2 ..........> k = 2
or:
y' = ky ..........> 8 = k*4 .........> k = 2
Based on the above, the dilation coefficient would be 2.

Hope this helps :)

Carlos deposited $7,924 into a savings account 30 years ago. The account has an interest rate of 4.6% and the balance is current

exis [7]

Answer:

n = 1, this means the interest compounds ANNUALLY.

Step-by-step explanation:

Carlos deposited $7,924 into a savings account 30 years ago. The account has an interest rate of 4.6% and the balance is currently $30,541.83. How often does the interest compound?

Compound Interest Formula

: A = P(1 + r/n)^nt

A = Amount after time t

P = Principal (Initial Amount Invested)

r = Interest rate

n = Number of times the interest is compounded

t = time in years

A = $30,541.83

r = 4.6% = 0.046

t = 30

P = $7,924

Hence,

$30,541.83 = $7924(1 + 0.046/n)^30n

Divide both sides by 7924

$30,541.93/$7924 = (1 + 0.046/n)^30n

$30,541.93/$7924 = (n + 0.046/n)^30n

3.8543576477 = (n + 0.046/n)^30n

We take the logarithm of both sides

log 3.8543576477 = log (n + 0.046/n)^30n

Solving for n,

n = 1

Therefore, from the calculation above, since n = 1, this means the interest compounds ANNUALLY.
