Answer:

The bakery gave out 4 slices of pie.

Step-by-step explanation:

We first find out how many slices were in both cherry pies. We can do this by multiplying 2 by 6 and get 12. Because they gave out 8 slices, they gave away 4 slices. An equation for this would be (x equals how much pie was given away):

2(6)-8=x

Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

The proportion of people who were caught after being on the 1010 Most Wanted list would be 40.81%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the FBI wants to determine the effectiveness of their 1010 Most Wanted list, and to do so, they need to find out the fraction of people who appear on the list that are actually caught, supposing a sample of 517517 suspected criminals is drawn, and of these people, 211211 were captured, to estimate the proportion of people who were caught after being on the 1010 Most Wanted list using this data, the following calculation must be performed:

517,517 = 100

211,211 = X

211,211 x 100 / 517,517 = X

21,121,100 / 517,517 = X

40.81 = X

Therefore, the proportion of people who were caught after being on the 1010 Most Wanted list would be 40.81%.

Which of the following is an equivalent equation obtained by completing the square of the expression below? x^2+6x−8=0 A (x+3)^2
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

Solving the equation x^2+6x-8=0 by completing the square method we get \mathbf{(x+3)^2=17}

Option B is correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve the equation x^2+6x-8=0 by completing the square method.

For completing the square method: we need to follow: a^2+2ab+b^2=(a+b)^2

We are given:

x^2+6x-8=0

Solving by completing the square

x^2+2(x)(?)+(?)^2-8=0

We need to find ? in our case ? is 3 because 2*3= 6 and our middle term is 6x i,e 2(x)(3)=6x.

So, adding and subtracting (3)^2

x^2+2(x)(3)+(3)^2-8-(3)^2=0\\(x+3)^2-8-9=0\\(x+3)^2-17=0\\(x+3)^2=17

So, solving the equation x^2+6x-8=0 by completing the square method we get \mathbf{(x+3)^2=17}

Option B is correct option.

Find the component form of the vector that translates P(4,5) to p'.
Veronika [31]

Answer:

Component form : (-7 , 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

P(4 , 5) = P'(4 +x , 5+y) = P'(-3 , 7)

4 + x = -3

    x = -3 - 4

    x = -7

5 + y = 7

     y = 7 - 5

     y = 2

Vector form : -7i + 2j

Component form : (-7 , 2)
