Mathematics
1 answer:
schepotkina [342]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

  (a)  -20 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The proportion can be solved using "cross multiply" as the first step. This eliminates the fractions and turns it into a linear equation.

  2/7 = -5/(x +3) . . . . . given

  2(x +3) = -35 . . . . . . multiply by 7(x +3)

  2x = -41 . . . . . . . . . simplify, subtract 6

  x = -20 1/2 . . . . . . divide by 2

In how many ways can you spell the word ROOM in the grid below? You can start on any letter R, then on each step you can step on
Zina [86]

Answer:

  84? Not sure but pretty sure

Step-by-step explanation:

In a straight line, the word can only be spelled on the diagonals, and there are only two diagonals in each direction that have 2 O's.

If 90° and reflex turns are allowed, then the number substantially increases.

Corner R: can only go to the adjacent diagonal O, and from there to one other O, then to any of the 3 M's, for a total of 3 paths.

2nd R from the left: can go to either of two O's, one of which is the same corner O as above. So it has the same 3 paths. The center O can go to any of 4 Os that are adjacent to an M, for a total of 10 more paths. That's 13 paths from the 2nd R.

Middle R can go the three O's on the adjacent row, so can access the three paths available from each corner O along with the 10 paths available from the center O, for a total of 16 paths.

Then paths accessible from the top row of R's are 3 +10 +16 +10 +3 = 42 paths. There are two such rows of R's so a total of 84 paths.
