"You are growing like a weed!” D’rek's grandmother said to him when she saw him for the
first time in a year. If D’rek grew 8 inches over the last year, and an average dandelion (a
common weed) grows 0.1 inches in one day, is D’rek growing like a weed? Justify your
answer.

Answers

Answer 1

growth rate:

[tex]=\frac{8}{365}[/tex]Derek is not growing like a weed because the weed grows at 0.1 inch per day, while he grows at a rate of 0.022 inch per day.

The number of days in a year = 365

The question says that D'rek grew at the rate of 8 inches in the last year'

D'reks growth rate:

[tex]=\frac{8}{365}[/tex]

= 0.022 inch per day

From the calculation above, Derek is growing at the rate of 0.022 inch per day. But the question says that the weed grows at the rate of 0.1 inch per day

In conclusion, Derek is not growing like a weed, his growth rate differs from that of the weed.

Hey, I need help with solving this inequality. It is for Introductory Algebra (0308) TSI Review. I need to pass the TSI which is 20 to 45 questions long and I have failed it in the past a total of four times, please help me to understand this: -4<4-2x<6


Thanks So Much!

Answers

Hello!

This one is a little tricky, but easy once you split it into a couple of parts!

So you have your whole inequality:

-4<4-2x<6

Let’s break it into two parts right down the middle. This just makes it way easier to solve! Start with -4<4-2x

Now, solve for “x” in that simple inequality. Remember that the inequality acts just like an equal sign, except for when you divide or multiply by a negative number! Then you have to flip it around.

-4<4-2x

Subtract 4 from each side

-8<-2x

Now, divide by -2 on both sides to get x by itself. Remember you are dividing by a negative in this case, so you have to flip the inequality around once you finish!

4>x

You can rewrite that as x<4 (it means the same thing :)

Now, let’s do the other half of this inequality. We’re doing the same thing, just the other side!

4-2x<6

Solve for x! Subtract 4 from each side

-2x<2

Get x by itself by dividing by -2 on both sides. Remember to flip the inequality since it’s negative!

X>-1

Ok! You’ve solved both parts of this, now it’s time to piece it all together.

You know x is less than 4 based on the first step, but greater than negative one based on the second step! Therefore, you write:

-1
I hope this makes sense! If you have any questions, please let me know!

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

Let M is the midpoint of DE.

Since D is at 8 and DE = 5.

DM = ME = 5/2 = 2.5

Point M is at:

8 + 2.5 = 10.5          if E is to the right of D8 - 2.5 = 5.5            if E is to the left of D#5

Given

XY = 7, YZ = 2x - 1, XZ = 30

Since XZ = XY + YZ, set up an equation and solve for x:

7 + (2x - 1) = 302x + 6 = 302x = 24x = 12#6

The distance from your house to friend's is LN.

We have:

M is midpoint of LN, so LM = MNLM = 3xMN = 2x + 2

Set up an equation, solve for x:

3x = 2x + 23x - 2x = 2x = 2

Find the distance LM:

LM = 3*2 = 6

Find the distance LN:

LN = 2*LM = 2*6 = 12

Half the difference of a number n and 20 is 30. What is the number?​

Answers

Answer:

80

Step-by-step explanation:

Half the difference of a number n and 20 ⇒  (n - 20)/2... is 30 ⇒ = 30

Solve the equation for n:

(n - 20)/2 = 30n - 20 = 30*2n - 20 = 60n = 60 + 20n = 80

The number is 80

Answer:

Number is 40

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be n

(n - 20)/2 = 30

(n - 20) = 2 × 30

n = (2 × 30) + 20

n = 60 + 20

n = 80

Answers

Answer:

66 = ∠JKN

Step-by-step explanation:

∠JKM = 99

∠LKM = 66

KN bisects means middle point divides into two equal parts

so first lets find ∠LKN and ∠NKM

66/2 = ∠LKN and ∠NKM each

33 = ∠LKN

33 = ∠NKM

so if we add ∠JKL + ∠LKN + ∠NKM = 99

∠JKL + ∠LKN + ∠NKM = 99

∠JKL + 33 + 33 = 99

∠JKL  + 66  = 99

∠JKL = 99-66

∠JKL = 33

now to find ∠JKN we must add

∠JKL + ∠LKN = ∠JKN

33 + 33 = ∠JKN

66 = ∠JKN

Is (1, 10) a solution to this system of inequalities?
y > X + 9
y > 10

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

I think the x value is 1

But however I don’t think the solution is (1, 10) because the y value is bigger than as can be seen in one of the equation that is written y > 10 so y can be 11, 12, 13,.....

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

If (1, 10) is a solution to the system then it must satisfy both inequalities.

Using x = 1 and y = 10 , then

10 > 1 + 9 , that is

10 > 10 ← False

and

10 > 10 ← False

Neither of the inequalities are satisfied by (1, 10)

Thus it is not a solution

pat has no more then 20 sweets. she counts her sweets by twos she has one sweet left. then she counts by five. she has 2 left over. how many sweets could she have​

Answers

Answer:

She can either have 7 sweets or 17 sweets.

Step-by-step explanation:

Variable x = number of sweets Pat has

x < 20

Counting by 5's (5, 10, 15) that will result in 2 left over (5 + 2, 10 + 2, and 15 + 2). This leaves 3 possible options as to how many sweets Pat has: 7, 12, and 17.

Counting by 2's (2, 4, 6 . . . 18) that will result in 1 left over (6 + 1, 10 + 1, 16 + 1) This leaves 2 possible options, given the other numbers from counting by 5's were eliminated.: 7 and 17.

-6x+5y=34
-6x-10y=4

Answers

Answer: x = -4

               y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

From equation I

-6x + 5y = 34

-6x = 34-5y

-(-6x) = -(34-5y)

or, 6x = 5y-34

or, x = 5y-34/6

so

substituting the value in equation II

-6x-10y = 4

or, -6{(5y-34)/6} - 10y = 4

or, -(5y-34)-10y = 4

or, -5y + 34-10y = 4

or, -15y = -30

or, y = -30/(-15)

so, y = 30/15

so, y = 2

now

x = (5y-34)/6

   = (5*2-34)/6

   = (10-34)/6

     = -24/6

     = -4

Answer:

x=-4, y=2

Step-by-step explanation:

-6x-10y=4

-6x=4+10y

(4+10y)+5y=34

15y=30

y=2

Andrew bought four bottles of lemonade and two bottles of water for €2.45. From the same shop Michael
bought two bottles of lemonade and four bottles of water for €2.35. What is the total cost of one bottle of
lemonade and one bottle of water?

Answers

Answer:

0.8 euro

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose the price of bottle of lemonade is x, when the bottle of water costs y.

Four bottles of lemonade cost 4x, two bottles of water cost 2y

4x+2y=2.45

Two bottles of lemonade cost 2x, four bottles of water cost 4y

2x+4y= 2.35

These equations( 4x+2y=2.45 and 2x+4y= 2.35) are simultaneous, so

multiply the first one by -2

-8x-4y=-4.9

-8x-4y+2x+4y= -4.9+2.35

-6x=-2.55

x=0.425 euro - the cost of bottle of lemonade

y=(2.45-4*0.425)/2

y=0.375 euro - the cost of bottle of water

0.425+0.375= 0.8 euro - the total cost  of one bottle of

A.
x = 6; m∠XOY = 20°
B.
x = 18; m∠XOY = 6°
C.
x = 20; m∠XOY = 6°
D.
x = 6; m∠XOY = 18°

Answers

Answer:

D.x = 6; m∠XOY = 18°

Step-by-step explanation:

Supplementary angles add to 180 and complementary angles add to 90

∠WOZ + ∠WOX = 180

108 + ∠WOX = 180

∠WOX + ∠XOY = 90

∠WOX + 3x = 90

∠WOX  = 90 -3x

Replace WOX in the first equation

108 + ∠WOX = 180

108 + 90 -3x = 180

Combine like terms

198 -3x = 180

Subtract 198 from each side

-3x = 180-198

-3x = -18

Divide by -3

-3x/-3 = -18/-3

x = 6

∠XOY  = 3x = 3*6 = 18
