<span>Asking a student if they have violated the honor code is not the proper question to ask, for a couple of reasons. First is that maybe they don't even know what the honor code is, and second maybe the students aren't being honest in fear of the reprecussions.</span>

Bethany is baking cookies for her school's bake sale. She plans to bake more than 185 cookies, in batchs or 12 cookies. so far,
Aleks [24]

Answer:

48+12b≥185

Step-by-step explanation:

Inequality: 48+12b≥185

Why? she has already backed 48 cookies so you just need to find how many more she needs to bake. (she doesn't need 185 cookies anymore since she's already baked 48)

You don' t need to solve the question,  

But here is how you do...

12b≥137

b≥11.42 (roughly)

Answer:

x = -5, and y = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose that we have two equations:

A = B

and

C = D

combining the equations means that we will do:

First we multiply both whole equations by constants:

k*(A = B) ---> k*A = k*B

j*(C = D) ----> j*C = j*D

And then we "add" them:

k*A + j*C = k*B + j*D

Now we have the equations:

-x  - y = 11

4*x - 5*y = 10

We want to add them in a given form that one of the variables cancels, so we can solve it for the other variable.

Then we can take the first equation:

-x  - y = 11

and multiply both sides by 4.

4*(-x - y = 11)

Then we get:

4*(-x - y) = 4*11

-4*x - 4*y = 44

Now we have the two equations:

-4*x - 4*y = 44

4*x - 5*y = 10

(here we can think that we multiplied the second equation by 1, then we have k = 4, and j = 1)

If we add them, we get:

(-4*x - 4*y) + (4*x - 5*y) = 10 + 44

-4*x - 4*y + 4*x - 5*y = 54

-9*y = 54

So we combined the equations and now ended with an equation that is really easy to solve for y.

y = 54/-9 = -6

Now that we know the value of y, we can simply replace it in one of the two equations to get the value of x.

-x - y = 11

-x - (-6) = 11

-x + 6 = 11

-x = 11 -6 = 5

-x = 5

x = -5

Then:

x = -5, and y = -6

What does this equal y &gt;4x - 5
Tresset [83]

Answer:

This represents the graph area above the line y = 4x - 5 shaded.

Step-by-step explanation:

y > 4x - 5 is an inequality.  First we graph y = 4x - 5, which has y-intercept (0, -5) and slope 4.  Next, we shade all of the area above this line (because the inequality y > 4x - 5 says that all y values are above 4x - 5).

I need help on this quick
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

The hypotenuse to the nearest tenth is 8.1

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the Pythagorean theorem to solve

a^2 + b^2 = c^2 where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse

Let a be the x leg and b be the y leg

a = 7 units

b= 4 units

7^2 + 4^2 = c^2

49+ 16 = c^2

65 = c^2

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(65) = sqrt(c^2)

8.062257748 =c

To the nearest tenth

8.1 =c
