Answer: Andy is 35 and Mike is 21.

Step-by-step explanation:

Andy’s present age: Mike’s present age

= 5:3

Andy’s age in “if”: Mike’s age in “if”

=6:2

1 unit = 7

5 unit = 35 (Andy’s age)

3 unit = 21 (Mike’s age)

1/2 of a bag of candy is skittles, 1/4 is m and m's, and 3/4 of the rest of it are life savers. The rest are sour patch kids. Wh
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

6.25%

Step-by-step explanation:

Total = 1 ; as a decimal

1/2 = skittles

1/4 = M&Ms

Skittles +M&Ms = 1/2 + 1/4 = 3/4

Remainder = 1 - \frac{3}{4}

Remainder = \frac{1}{4}

Sour patch = \frac{1}{4} *\frac{1}{4} =\frac{1}{16}

As a percentage , multiply 1/16 by 100 and it becomes 6.25%

PLS HELP ALGEBRA 2 QUESTION ASAP 5 STARS AND BRAINLIEST what type of polynomial is <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=-5x%5E%7B4%
devlian [24]

Answer:

Binomial

Step-by-step explanation:

Edited to add:

It can also be called a binomial because there are 2 unlike terms x and y. I'm not sure what you are studying, so it may be better to go with binomial. The Quartic is when you are looking at the degree of a single term polynomial.

You can name a polynomial based on terms, or based on degrees.

If it's based on degree it would be bi-quadratic, because it's ^4 and you have 2 different terms. If you're looking at terms it would be binomial because you have x and y to solve for.

The degree of terms is a major deciding factor whether an equation is homogeneous or not. A polynomial of more that one variable is said to be homogeneous if the degree of each term is the same. For example, 2x^7+5x^5y^2-3x^4y^3+4x^2y^5 is a homogeneous polynomial of degree 7 in x and y.

You have a 4 term polynomial with 2 variables x and y. The highest degree in your equation is 5 (4 + 1 from the first term) so the degree of the multivariable polynomial expression is 6.

All these answers are correct, it just depends what you're studying. If some of these words are new, and others you recognize from class or your book, go with the one that looks familiar.

Dave is comparing the circumferences of several trees in his yard. The oak tree is 0.539 meters in circumference, the ash tree h
stepan [7]

Answer:   c. elm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The circumference of the oak tree= 0.539 meters

=0.539\times100=53.9\text{ cm}   [∵ 1 m = 100 cm]             (1)

The circumference of the ash tree= 0.509 yards

=0.509\times3\text{ feet}   [∵ 1 yard = 3 feet]

=0.509\times3\times 30.48\text{ cm}  [∵ 1 foot = 30.48 cm]

=46.54296\approx46.54\text{ cm}        (2)

The circumference of the elm tree = 6281.70 millimeters

=\dfrac{6281.70}{10}=628.17\text{ cm}          (3)

The circumference of the poplar tree = 0.000385 miles

=0.000385 \times5280\text{ feet}   [∵ 1 mile = 5280 feet]

=0.000385 \times5280\times30.48\text{ feet}  [∵ 1 foot = 30.48 cm]

=61.959744\approx61.96\ \text{ cm}              (4)

From (1) , (2) , (3 ) and (4) it is clear that

46.54< 53.9 < 61.96 < 628.17

Hence, the elm tree has the greatest circumference.
