Cate solved an inequality to find c, the possible number of cats that a shelter can house. She found that c < 28. Which statement best describes a possible solution to Cate’s problem?

The shelter can house 15.6 cats because 15.6 < 28.
The shelter can house –8 cats because –8 < 28.
The shelter can house 17 cats because 17 < 28.
The shelter can house 28 cats because 28 < 28.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the expression:

12x² + ax - 20

3x + 4 is a factor. Therefore:

12x² + ax - 20 = (3x · 4x) + ax + (4 · (-5))

12x² + ax - 20 = (3x + 4)(4x - 5)

(3x + 4)(4x - 5) = (3x)(4x) + (3x)(-5) + (4)(4x) + (4)(-5)

= 12x² - 15x + 16x - 20 = 12x² + x - 20

12x² + ax - 20 = (3x + 4)(bx + c)

12x² + ax - 20 = (3x)(bx) + (3x)(c) + (4)(bx) + (4)(c)

12x² + ax - 20 = 3bx² + 3cx + 4bx + 4c

12x² + ax - 20 = 3b² + (3c + 4b)x + 4c

therefore

3b = 12

a = 3c + 4b

4c = -20

3b = 12 ⇒ b = 4

4c = -20 ⇒ c = -5

substitute to a:

a = 3 · (-5) + 4 · 4

a = -15 + 16

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve an equation for a specific variable by using inverse operations to undo what is done to the variable. The resulting function is evaluated by substituting the given value for the variable.

__

We are given the equation ...

  6x -3y = 2

Solving for y, we get ...

  6x -2 = 3y . . . . . add 3y-2 to both sides

  2x -2/3 = y . . . . . divide by 3

  f(x) = 2x -2/3 . . . . write using functional notation

__

To find f(3), we use x=3 in the function.

  f(3) = 2(3) -2/3 = 6 -2/3

  f(3) = 5 1/3

The resulting equation on using the completing the square is y = (x+5)² - 25

The quadratic equation has a leading degree of 2. Given the equation below;

y = x^2+10x

Add the square of the half of coefficient of x to have;

y = x^2+10x + (10/2)²- (10/2)²
y = x^2 + 10x + 5² - 5²

y = x^2 + 10x  + 25 - 25

y = (x+5)² - 25

Hence the resulting equation on using the completing the square is y = (x+5)² - 25

First function; Initial value = 250; Decay; Decay rate = 11%

Second function; Initial value = 40; Growth; Decay rate = 11%

How to solve exponential decay functions?

1) The first function is;

40 = 250(0.89)^(x)

y = 250 (initial value)

Decay because 0.89 < 1

Thus;

Decay rate: (1 - 0.89) * 100 = 11%

2) The second function is;

250 = 40(1.11)^(x)

y = 40 (initial value)

Growth because 1.11 > 1 so growth

Growth rate: (1.11 - 1) * 100 = 11%

The number of weeks by which the students in both classes will know how to write the same number of letters will be 4 weeks.

A linear system is one in which the parameter in the equation has a degree of one. It might have one, two, or even more variables.

Mr. McMillan and Ms. Burke are teaching their classes how to write in cursive.

Mr. McMillan has already taught his class 8 letters.

The students in Ms. Burke's class, who started the unit later, currently know how to write 12 letters.

Mr. McMillan plans to teach his class 4 new letters per week.

Ms. Burke intends to cover 3 new letters per week.

Eventually, the students in both classes will know how to write the same number of letters.

Then the number of weeks by which the students in both classes will know how to write the same number of letters will be

Let x be the number of the weeks and y be the total number of the letters.

Then the equation will be

y = 4x + 8 …1

The bearing from C to A of the given travel path is gotten as; 100.63°

From the bearing image attached, we can use trigonometric ratios to get;

tanx = opp/adj

x = 53 + θ ---------- eqn(1)

opp = 119

adj = 59

Thus;

tan x = 119/59

tan x = 2.0169

x = tan⁻¹(2.0169)

x = 63.63°

From eqn (1), we have;

θ = x - 53

θ = 63.63 - 53

θ = 10.63°

Thus, the bearing from C to A = 90 + 10.63 = 100.63°

Step-by-step explanation:

f = s + 28          Eq. 1

f+8 = 3(s+8)      Eq. 2

f = father age

s = son age

replacing Eq. 1 on Eq. 2

(s+28) + 8 = 3(s+8)

s + 36 = 3*s + 3*8

s + 36 = 3s + 24

The probability of rolling an even number on a number cube and spinning red or yellow on the spinner will be 1/4 or 0.25.

The complete question is given below.

I rolled a number cube and spun a spinner. The number cube is numbered 1 to 6. The spinner has 4 equal parts: red, blue, yellow, and green. What is the probability of rolling an even number on a number cube and spinning red or yellow on the spinner?

Its basic premise is that something will almost certainly happen. The percentage of favorable events to the total number of occurrences.

Then the probability of rolling an even number on a number cube and spinning red or yellow on the spinner will be

The probability of getting even number on dice will be

Total event = 6 {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}

Favorable events = 3 {2, 4, 6}

P₁ = 3/6

P₁ = 1/2

The probability of getting red or yellow will be

Total event = 4 {red, blue, yellow, green}

Favorable events = 2 {red, yellow}

P₂ = 2/4

P₂ = 1/2

Then the both event occur simultaneously, then we have

P = P₁ × P₂

P = 1/2 × 1/2

P = 1/4

P = 0.25

The tens in 145,577 is 70.

The hundreds in 146,888 is 800

10. The missing conversion is 20.32 inches

11. Total number of red cars is 34

12. Total number of blue cars is 36

13. Total number of silver cars is 70

Ratio is the number of times a quantity is contained more  or less than another in a whole.

Analysis:

10. If 1 inch = 2.54cm

     Then 8 inches = 8 x 2.54cm = 20.32 cm

     First car park: Total number of cars = 60

     ratio of red:blue:silver = 1:2:3

     Total ratio = 1+2+3 = 6

     number of red cars = 1/6 x 60 = 10

     number of blue cars = 2/6 x 60 = 20 cars

     number of silver cars = 3/6 x 60 = 30

   second car park: Total number of cars = 80

    ratio of blue: red: silver = 2:3:5

    total ratio = 2+3+5 = 10

    number of red cars = 3/10 x 80 = 24

    number of blue cars = 2/10 x 80 = 16

    number of silver cars = 5/10 x 80 = 40

11.  Total number of red cars = 10+24 = 34

Answer: Option 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The second and third options do not contain the line y = 2x+6, so they can be eliminated.

Between the first and fourth options, only the first option shows the line y=2x+6 being shaded below, so it is the answer.

The graph of the inequality is graph A

Inequalities are the mathematical expressions in which both sides are not equal. In inequality, unlike in equations, we compare two values. The equal sign in between is replaced by less than (or less than or equal to), greater than (or greater than or equal to), or not equal to sign.

In an inequality, the two expressions are not necessarily equal which is indicated by the symbols: >, <, ≤ or ≥.

Given data ,

Let the inequality equation be represented as A

Now , the value of A is

Substituting the values in the equation , we get

y ≥ ( 1/5 ) ( 4x - 1 )   be equation (1)

y ≤ 2x + 6   be equation (2)

Now , To graph the system of inequalities, we can start by graphing the boundary lines for each inequality and then determine which region of the coordinate plane satisfies both inequalities.

For the first inequality, y >= (1/5)(4x-1), we can start by graphing the line y = (1/5)(4x-1), which has a y-intercept of -1/5 and a slope of 4/5. We can draw this line as a solid line, since the inequality includes the "or equal to" condition:

And , for the second inequality, y <= 2x+6, we can graph the line y = 2x+6, which has a y-intercept of 6 and a slope of 2. We can also draw this line as a solid line, since the inequality includes the "or equal to" condition:

Hence , the inequality is solved and the solution to the system of inequalities is the shaded region above the line y = (1/5)(4x-1) and below the line y = 2x+6, including the boundary lines.
