Karl and Mark are walking through the woods dropping breadcrumbs to help them find their way home. After ten minutes, their brea

In that three minute window (13 min - 10 min = 3 min), they used 24 bread crumbs (120 - 96 = 24).

So they're using 24 bread crumbs / 3 minutes or 8 crumbs/min.

The rate of change is a decrease of 8 crumbs/min from their basket.

evablogger [386]

Answer: 771 3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

15 3/8+756

we can apply the assosiative propery and do 15+756+3/8

so 15+756= 771

so finally you do 771+3/8=771 3/8

216 students enrolled in a freshman-level chemistry class. By the end of the semester, 5 times the number of students passed as
Semenov [28]

Answer:

The no. of student failed is 36.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, the number of student enrolled= 216

Let us suppose number of student failed = x

Given,

no. of student passed is 5 times no. of student failed.

Then, no. of student passed = 5x

x +5x = 216

6x = 216

x = 216/6

x = 36

Thus, the no. of student failed is 36.

Solve the system of linear equations by substituting. Check your solution
Ghella [55]
QUESTION 4

The given system of linear equations are,

y = 5x - 7...(1)

and

- 3x - 2y = - 12...(2)

We put equation (1) into equation (2) to obtain,

- 3x - 2(5x - 7) = - 12

We expand to get,

- 3x - 10x + 14 = - 12

Group like terms to get,

- 3x - 10x = - 12 - 14

Simplify to get,

- 13x = - 26

Divide both sides by -13 to get,

x = 2

Put the value of x into equation (1) to get,

y = 5(2) - 7

y = 10 - 7 = 3

The solution is

x = 2 \: \: and \: \: = 3

QUESTION 5

The given system of linear equations are

-4x+y=6....(1)
and

-5x-y=21...(2)

We make y the subject in equation (1) to get,

y = 4x + 6....(3)

Put equation (3) into equation (2) to get,

- 5x - (4x + 6) = 21

We expand to get,

- 5x - 4x - 6 =21

We group like terms to get,

- 5x - 4x = 21 + 6

This implies that,

- 9x = 27

We divide both sides by -9 to get,

x = - 3

Put the value of x in to equation 3 to get,

y = 4( - 3) + 6

y = - 12 + 6 = - 6

Therefore the solution is

x = - 3 \: and \: y = - 6

QUESTION 6

The given equations are,

-7x-2y=-13...(1)

and

x-2y=-13...(2)

Make x the subject in equation (2) to get,

x = 2y - 13...(3)

Put equation (3) into equation (1) to get,
- 7(2y - 13) - 2y = - 13

We expand to get,

- 14y + 91 - 2y = - 13

We group like terms to obtain,

- 14y - 2y = - 13 - 91

.Simplify to get,

- 16y = - 104

Divide through by -16 to get,

y = \frac{13}{2}

Put the value of y into equation (3) to get,

x = 2( \frac{13}{2} ) - 13

x = 13 - 13 = 0

Therefore

x = 0 \: and \: y = \frac{13}{2}

What are the zeros of the quadratic function f(x) = 2x2 + 16x – 9?
Lena [83]
To find the zeros of this equation you need to first set it equal to zero
2x2 + 16x - 9 = 0
But since you can't FOIL this equation you need to move the non-variable number over
2x2 +16x = 9
Now solve for x by pulling an x out of the equation
x(2x + 16) = 9
x = 9
2x +16 = 9
2x = -7
x = -7/2
So your zeros would be at x = 9, and -7/2
