Answer:

Option (B)

Step-by-step explanation:

x² + x - 1) x³ + 6x² + 0x + 5 ( x + 5

           - (<u>x³ +   x²  -  x</u>)

                      5x² + x + 5

                    -(<u>5x² + 5x - 5)</u>

                             -4x + 10

Result : x+5+\frac{-4x+10}{(x^{2}+x-1)}

By the comparing the result with the Lorie's solution,

She made a mistake in the last step in which she combined the constant incorrectly.

Therefore, Option (B) will be the answer.

Rita is planting saplings along her garden fence. When she started, she had x packages of saplings with 5 saplings per package.
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

If we represent x (number of packages of saplings) on a number line graph, it will start on number 4 (number of packages Rita still has) then moves to the right to number 7, that is the number of packages when Rita started to plant.

The heaviest land animal ever recorded (according to the Guinness Book of World Records) was a male African bush elephant. He we
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

The largest African elephant weighed 13.5 tons (27,000 pounds) The world record holder weighed this much and stood 13ft/4m tall at the shoulder. There are other species of elephants, namely the Asian and the Indian, but they are much smaller than the African. The African elephant is the king among the giants on land. No other land animal comes close to the size of these creatures. It would take 165 full-grown men to make up the same weight as the world's record African elephant. The noise of an elephant digesting its food (when its tummy's growling) can be heard up to 600ft/183m away. Elephants actually have control over their digestive processes because they are able to stop the sounds of digestion when they sense danger. Here are some other cool elephant factoids:

Isabella filled her pool with water at a constant rate.
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

The size of Isabella's pool is 220 liters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the size of Isabella's pool be x liters, R be the rate of fill, t be the time of fill and V be the volume of water filled in the pool.

As the rate of fill is constant,

Therefore, volume of water filled in the pool can be given as,

V= Rt

Volume of water left is given as x-V=x-Rt

From the table,

Volume of water left after t=2 minutes is 184 liters.

So, x-R(2)=184\\x-2R=184 -------- 1

Volume of water left after t=12 minutes is 4 liters.

So, x-R(12)=4\\x-12R=4 ------------2

Multiply equation 1 by 6 and equation 2 by -1, we get

6x-12R=1104\\-x+12R=-4

Now, we add the above equations, we get

(6x-x)+(12R-12R)=1104-4\\5x=1100\\x=\frac{1100}{5}=220

Therefore, the size of Isabella's pool is 220 liters.

A researcher measures IQ and weight for a group of college students. What kind of correlation is likely to be obtained for these
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

Option b

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a  researcher measures IQ and weight for a group of college students.

In general, we think that the weight has nothing to do with IQ of a person and hence not correlated.

But if we go deep, we find that after a certain weight, the person becomes lazy and inactive with a chance to have reduced IQ

Weight gain causes also health problems including less activity of both brain and body and hence there is a chance for less IQ

So we find that as weight increases iq decreases and when weight decreases, IQ increases.

Thus we can say that there is a negative correlation but not necessarily near to one.

Hence option b is right
