Library amount: l
Robbie: r=(1/3)l
Martha: m=15
rest of books: l-r-m=e+w+b
Elena: e=15
Winfield: w=1/5(e+w+b)
bookstore: b=5


w=(e+w+b)/5
w=(15+5+w)/5
w=4+w/5
(4/5)w=4
w=5

l-r-m=e+w+b
l-(1/3)l-15=15+5+5
(2/3)l=25+15
(2/3)l=40
l=60=amount of books

After placing an equation into his calculator Rob got the following table. He then determine that X=6 when f (x) = -4 is he corr
icang [17]

Answer:

No, unless the function decides to follow a different pattern. See more explanation below.

Step-by-step explanation:

He is wrong, the table doesn't tell us what happens at x=6.

It does tell us the following:

1) When x=-4, f(x)=6.

2) When x=-2, f(x)=3.

3) When x=0, f(x)=-1.

4) When x=2, f(x)=-4.

So maybe he got it the x and f(x) value switched in his brain.

Because according to 1) x=-4 when f(x)=6.

If the points keep having x increase while y decreases, then every x>2 will have a y less than -4 correspond to it.

In a second grade class containing 13 girls and 10 boys, 2 students are selected at random to give out the math papers. what is
Natali5045456 [20]
The fact that the first chosen student was a girl is already decided, so there is no need to find the probability of that happening. There are a total of 13+10, or 23 students. A girl was already selected, so that leaves 22 students. The chance that a boy is chosen is 10/22, or 5/11.

The equation to determine the weekly earnings of an employee at the hamburger shack is given by w(x), where x is the number of h
SVETLANKA909090 [29]
To arrive at the answer, I graphed the piecewise function using a graphing calculator, then evaluated it at x=38 and x=52. I drew a line at y=445 and found the point of intersection on the graph.

a) The difference between earnings for 52 hours ($580) and earnings for 38 hours ($380) is $200.

b) An employee must work 43 hours to earn $445.

Find the area of the shape below.
lawyer [7]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  164π cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a circle is given by the formula ...

  A = πr²

The radius (r) is half the diameter (d), so the area of a semicircle in terms of its diameter is ...

  1/2A = (1/2)(π)(d/2)² = (π/8)d²

The given shape is the combination of three (3) semicircles. The smallest has a diameter of 6 cm; the middle-sized one has a diameter of (32 cm -6 cm -8 cm) = 18 cm. The largest has a diameter of 32 cm.

The total area will be ...

  area of largest + area of middle-size - area of smallest

  = (π/8)(32² +18² -6²) = (π/8)(1312) . . . . cm²

The area of the shape is 164π cm².
