Ivy and her brother, Hayden, each got a box of chocolates for Valentine’s Day. Her box contained 12 chocolates, and his box contained 10 chocolates. They both knew that their dad loved chocolate, so they each gave him half of their chocolates. Also, they each gave their mother two chocolates; then they ate the rest. How many chocolates did Ivy get to eat? How many chocolates did Hayden get to eat?

Answers

Answer: 10 and a half For ivy For Hayden 8 half

Step-by-step explanation: because ivy gave Her mother 2 each and her father half and for her brother

Answer:

Given to father by Ivy: 12/2=6

Given to father by Hayden: 10/2=5

Now,

Chocolates given to mother by Ivy: 2

Chocolates given to mother by Hayden: 2

Now total chocolates given by Ivy to mother and father: 6+2 = 8

Now total chocolates given by Hayden to mother and father: 5+2=7

Now total chocolates left  with Ivy 12-8=4

Now total chocolates left with Hayden: 10-7= 3

Thus ivy and Hayden has  4&3 chocolates respectively

Julius designed a quadrilateral-shaped banner with colored tape around the edges and along the diagonal. The banner has a length of 10 feet, a width of 22 inches, and a diagonal of 122 inches.


Which statement about the banner is true?


A. The banner is not a rectangle because 10² + 22² ≠ 122² ; therefore, the angles opposite the diagonal are not right angles.


B. The banner is a rectangle because 120² + 22² = 122² ; therefore, the angles opposite the diagonal are not right angles.


C. The banner is not a rectangle because 120² + 22² ≠ 122² ; therefore, the angles opposite the diagonal are not right angles.


D. The banner is a rectangle because 10² + 22² = 122² ; therefore, the angles opposite the diagonal are not right angles.

What is the equation of the line that is parallel to the line 5x + 2y = 12 and passes through the point (−2, 4)?

y = – 5/2x – 1

Answer:

y=5/2x-1

Step-by-step explanation:

Write an equation in the form y=mx+b that represents the x-y table

Answers

Choose two coordinates. I will choose the ones you chose, (-2, -3) and (0, 1).

Find the slope first using the slope equation: [tex]\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}[/tex]

y2 is 1, y1 is -3, x2 is 0, and x1 is -2.

[tex]\frac{1-(-3)}{0-(-2)}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1+3}{0+2}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{4}{2}[/tex]

m = [tex]2[/tex]

The slope is 2.

Now that we found out the slope, we can start to assemble our equation. The m in the equation y = mx + b stands for the slope.

Now the equation is: y = 2x + b.

We need to figure out the y-intercept next. The b in the equation stands for the y-intercept. Choose one coordinate. I will chose (0, 1). x = 0 and y = 1. Substitute 0 in for x and 1 into y.

y = 2x + b

1 = 2(0) + b

1 = 0 + b

1 = b

Now we know what b is. Plug in 1 for b in the equation.

y = 2x + 1

Answer: -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

You have to write the number-line out man. However, the answer is -2

Step-by-step explanation:

When solving problems like these, knowledge or integers and whole numbers are important. First, find the absolute values of both numbers.

Absolute value of -6: 6

Absolute value of 4: 4

Subtract the values: 6 - 4 = (Positive 2)

THEN, look at the number with the Greater Absolute value. In this case, it is -6. Because -6 has the greater absolute value, your answer should be the connotation of that number. IN THIS CASE, the number with the greater absolute value, -6, has a negative sign. Therefore, your answer should be negative. Your answer is -2.
