Part A

Answers

Answer 1

Using proportions, it is found that the signed number -15 represents the team's total loss of yards on the 3 plays.

What is a proportion?

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.

In this problem, in one play, the team lost 5 years, that is, the amount is -5. What is the amount on three plays? The rule of three is given by:

1 play - -5 yards

3 plays - n yards

Applying cross multiplication:

n = 3 x (-5) = -15.

The signed number -15 represents the team's total loss of yards on the 3 plays.

The volume of the compound shape, that is the object formed by two hemispheres and a right cylinder is 66π in³.

How to determine the volume of the compound shape

The volume is the space occupied by an object. The volume of the compound shape equals the sum of the individual volumes, that is, of each part, which are represented by two hemispheres and a right cylinder.

Now we proceed to determine the volume of the compound shape (V), in cubic inches, by apply the following calculation:

V = (4/3) · π · (3 in)³ + π · (3 in)² · (10 in)

V = 66π in³

3a+5c=96

Answers

Answer:

a=17

c=9

Step-by-step explanation:

balls

Answer:

c=9 and a=17

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 2a+3c=61

2. 3a+5c=96

the LCM between 2 and 3 is 6 so

equation 1 *3

3.6a+9c+183

equation 2*2

4. 6a+10c=192

equation 3 - equation 4

5. -c=-9

c=9

substitute c into equation 1 or 2 to find a

3a+5(9)=96

3a+45=96

3a=51

a=17

Bella is typing a 400 word essay. She types 50 words in 2 minutes.
Enter an equation in the form of y=mx+b, that represents the number of words (y) remaining to type after x minutes.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y=25x[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

If Bella types 50 words in 2 minutes, we can divide 50 by 2 to see how many words she types in 1 minute.

[tex]50/2=25[/tex]

So, Bella types 25 words per minute. When she first began writing her essay, she did not have words to start with, so there is no y-intercept ([tex]b[/tex]).

Therefore, the equation that represents this relation is [tex]y=25x[/tex].

Solving the equation

We can divide 400 by 25 to determine how many minutes it would take her to finish her essay.

[tex]\frac{400}{25} =16[/tex]

Therefore, it will take her 16 minutes to complete her essay.

Find the perimeter of the composite figure using pi

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We see a semicircle, not a "composite figure." The perimeter of the semicircle is the sum of the length of the arc and the length of the straight edge:

  P = (1/2)πd +d . . . where d is the diameter and πd is the full circumference

  P = d(1 +π/2)

  P ≈ (3 ft)(1 +1.57) = 7.71 ft . . . . . using 3.14 for π

The perimeter of the figure is about 7.71 feet.

You want to save for retirement. assuming you are now 25 years old and you want to retire at age 50, you have 25 years to watch your investment grow. you decide to invest in the stock market, which has earned about 13% per year over the past 80 years and is expected to continue at this rate. you decide to invest $1,000 today. required: how much do you expect to have in 25 years?

Answers

Answer:

4250

Step-by-step explanation:

0.13 = 13%

1000×0.13=130
130×25= 3250 + 1000 = 4250

What I did:

You have to turn the percent to a decimal first

Then multiply the decimal by the first investment amount (1000)

then multiply that by the years that you have before retirement
You add that amount plus the 1000 you have started with

Identify the solution to the system of equations
{x=-2y-6 -3x-7y=18

Answers

Answer:

(- 6, 0 )

Step-by-step explanation:

x = -2y - 6 → (1)

- 3x - 7y = 18 → (2)

substitute x = - 2y - 6 into (2)

- 3(- 2y - 6) - 7y = 18 ← distribute parenthesis and simplify left side

6y + 18 - 7y = 18

- y + 18 = 18 ( subtract 18 from both sides )

- y = 0 , then

y = 0

substitute y = 0 into (1)

x = - 2(0) - 6 = 0 - 6 = - 6

solution is (- 6, 0 )

Answer:

  (x, y) = (-6, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

A system of equations is easily solved using a graphing calculator. The attached shows the solution to be ...

  (x, y) = (-6, 0)

__

The first equation gives a convenient expression for substituting for x in the second equation:

  -3(-2y -6) -7y = 18

  18 -y = 18 . . . . . . . . simplify

  y = 0 . . . . . . . . add y-18

  x = -2(0) -6 = -6

The solution by substitution is (x, y) = (-6, 0).
