Before we calculate we can use some common sence thinknig to narrow down the choices. We know that Robert is gonig DOWN the hill, so it doesnt make sence that he woudl have a positive rate of change (i.e. the number feet up the hill he is is decreasing, not increasing) So right away, A & B are clearly wrong.
If we look at the last two (C & D) we can see that if -460 were right after 10 minutes he would have walked down 4,600 feet. This is WAY more that the total height of the hill and so can't be correct.
So C must be correct.
We can check this with some simple math:
Answer: The system of equations are;
a + b = 9 ———(1)
a + 3b = 23———(2)
Step-by-step Explanation: The variables used here are a and b. Where a represents the number of free throws and b represents the number of three-pointers.
From equation (1), what we have is the total number of shots he has taken altogether which is 9 shots in all. All 9 shots are an addition of free throws and three pointers (that is a + b).
In equation (2), what we have is the points obtainable times the number of shots taken (for each shot). This means if a is a free throw, then 1 times a is equal to number of free throws times 1. Similarly, if b is a three-point throw, then 3 times b is equal to the number of three pointers thrown times 3.
The solution to the equation above gives us,
a = 2 and b = 7
Answer:
D. 127.5 square units
Step-by-step explanation:
AC=17
BD=15
AB=11.5
Diagonal (1&2) are given, base of the rhombus is also given.
Height is not given
Area of a rhombus given the diagonals
=1/2×d1×d2
Where,
d1=AC=17
d2=BD=15
Area of a rhombus=1/2×d1×d2
=1/2×17*15
=1/2×255
=127.5
D. 127.5 square units
The value of the <em>a, </em>in the provided quadratic equation for which Nancy found one solution as x=1 is 9.
<h3>What is the solution of equation?</h3>
The solution of the quadratic equation is the solution of the variable of the equation, for which the equation satisfies.
Nancy found that x=1 is one solution to the quadratic equation. The quadratic equation is,

For this equation, one solution is <em>x</em>=1. Put this value in the above equation to get the value of <em>a,</em>

Thus, the value of the <em>a, </em>in the provided quadratic equation for which Nancy found one solution as x=1 is 9.
