Answer:

It's because of the decimal of .8

Step-by-step explanation:

It can be confusing but since its not a whole number when you multiply with a whole number gets smaller instead of bigger. So the whole number basically has to give some of it to the decimal so, that the outcome can be a whole number.

Sorry, if this isn't the best!

Answer:

80% of 8.75=7. I'm pretty sure this is the reason.

Determine which ordered pair is a solution of y = –5x + 10. a. (–15, 5)
maria [59]
Y = - 5 x + 10
A ) x = - 15, y = 5
5 = 75 + 10
5 ≠ 85
B ) x = 2, y = 0
0 = - 5 · 2 + 10
0 = 0  ( correct )
C ) x = - 1,  y = - 5,
- 5 = 5 + 10
- 5 ≠ 15
D ) x = 3, y = 25
25 = - 15 + 10
25 ≠ - 5
Answer:
B ) ( 2, 0 )

|-3 + 15| what is the sum (answer) ? I think it is 12 but my friend thinks it is 18. Who is right?
Aliun [14]
I do believe it is 12 as well considering the fact that it's negative three and not positive. If it was a positive three then maybe it would be 18.

Construct a frequency distribution and a frequency histogram for the data set using the indicated number of classes. Describe an
elena-s [515]

Answer and Explanation:

Number of classes = 8

    Highest value =2300

  Lowest value = 1250

Class width= highest value – lowest value / number of classes

               = 2300 – 1250/8

                = 131.25 = 132

So, we can write class as 1250+132=1382

Class                                        frequency

1250-1382                                 2

1382-1514                                 3

1514-1646                                 6

1646-1778                                 2

1778-1910                                 3

1910-2042                                 2

2042-2174                                 1

2174-2306                                 1

What to do if quadratic equation has a negative spuare root?
alex41 [277]

If the negative square root is found to be one of your solutions, then that is indicative of a pair of imaginary roots (the imaginary i). According to the conjugate rule, if you have one solution that is imaginary, you will have another but with the opposite sign. For example, if a solution to a quadratic is found to be 2 - i, then its conjugate, 2 + i is also a solution. They will ALWAYS go in pairs. Same thing with radical solutions. If one solution is found to be 3+\sqrt{5}

then 3-\sqrt{5} will also be a solution.
