Let x = # of 25-cent stamps

y = # of 2-cent stamps

{ x+ y = 88

{ 0.25x + 0.02y = 15.56

60 25-cent stamps 28 2-cent stamps

Graph the functions on the same coordinate plane. f(x)=7 and g(x)=x^2+2x-8 . What are the solutions to the equation f(x)=g(x)?

Murrr4er [49]

If we use a graphing tool, we can plot both graphs and find the solution quickly

<span>g(x)=x^2+2x-8</span> =7 =f(x)

The solutions are x1 =-5 , x2 = 3

Answer:

Option B is not a justification

Step-by-step explanation:

Option A is a justification (to get two pair of similar triangles (ABC-ACD) and (ABC-BCD))

Option C is a justification (a^2 = cy, b^2 = cx, a^2 + b^2 = cy + cx)

Option D is a justification (a^2 + b^2 = cy + cx = c(y + x) = c^2)

=> Option B is not a justification

A science museum has a spherical model of the earth with a diameter of 6.5 m. What is the volume of the model? Use 3.14 for and

natka813 [3]

radius = diameter/2

radius = 6.5/2 = $\frac{13}{4}$ m

<span>volume </span> $= \frac{4}{3}$ x $\pi$ x (radius)³

$= \frac{4}{3}$ x $\pi$ x $( \frac{13}{4})^3$

$= \frac{4}{3}$ x $\pi$ x $\frac{2197}{64}$

$= \frac{2197}{64}$

= 144 cubic meters
