Answer: 20
Step-by-step explanation:
x+y=5
x-y=4
---------
x+y=5
x=4+y
--------
(4+y)+y=5
4+y+y=5
4+2y=5
2y=1
y=0.5
x=4.5
---------
x²-y²=(4.5)²-(0.5)²=20.25-0.25=20
Answer:
4 : 24 or 1 : 6
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 4 bananas and 24 fruits so we just make that a ratio of 4 : 24.
We can then simplify that ratio to 1 : 6.
C 75.00- 1/3 were cookies which is 150 cookies. 150x0.50=75.00
Answer:



Step-by-step explanation:
The given probabilities are:


Their sum is 
The probabilities that will complete the model should add up to
so that the sum of all probabilities is 1.





Answer:
4 inches should be turned up on both sides.
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find this, create a situation in which we give the amount turned up on each side as x. Then give the amount that isn't turned up as 16 - 2x (since 2x is the amount turned up). Now we can find the area by multiplying the 3 measurements.
100 * x * (16 - 2x) = MAX
100 * (16x - 2x^2) = MAX
-200x^2 + 1600x = MAX
Now that we have a quadratic function, we can find the maximum value of x by using the vertex formula for x values (-b/2a).
x = -b/2a
x = -1600/2(-200)
x = -1600/-400
x = 4
