attashe74 [19]

Answer: $\frac{11}{15}$

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that:

- 2/5 of the spice mixture was oregano.

- 1/3 of the spice mixture was basil.

Then, to find the fraction of the total amount of spice mixture that was oregano and basil, you must add both fractions, as following:

- Find the least common multiply of the denominators:

$LCM=5*3=15$

- Divide the LCM by each original denominator and multiply the result by each numerator.

- Make the addition.

Then, the result is:

$\frac{(2*3)+(1*5)}{15}=\frac{6+5}{15}=\frac{11}{15}$

Solve X-9+2wx=y for x

maxonik [38]

X - 9 + 2wx = y Add 9 to both sides x + 2wx = y + 9 Factor out the x x (1 + 2w) = y + 9 Divide both sides by (1 + 2w) x = (y + 9) / (1 + 2w)

Charlotte’s weekly paycheck is based on the number of hours worked during the week and on the weekend. If she works 13 hours dur

Schach [20]

X: earn per hour during the week
y: earn per hour during the weekend

13x + 14y = 250.90
15x + 8y = 204.70

Multiply the first equation by 4 and the second equation by 7

52x + 56y = 1003.6
105x + 56y = 1432.90

Subtract the first equation from the second:

53x = 429.30

x = 429.30/ 53
x = 8.10

Solve any of the equation for y:

15x + 8y = 204.70

y = [204.70 - 15(8.10)]/8 = 10.40

y - x = 10.40 -8.10 = 2.30

Answer: she earns $2.30 per hour more during the weekend than during the week.

Which function below has the largest slope?

postnew [5]

The slope of f(x) can be computed as
(f(4) -f(2))/(4 -2) = (12 -4)/(2) = 8/2 = 4

The slope of g(x) is the coefficient of x
10

The slope of h(x) is
(1 level)/(1 play) = 1

The function with the largest slope is g(x).

Cameron, Arthur, and Jamie are playing soccer. Their locations are recorded by a motion tracking system. The grid shows distanc

Luden [163]

Answer:

1. Arthur is about 54 meters away from Cameron.

2. Jamie is about 56 meters away from Cameron.

3. Arthur is closer to Cameron.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given the locations of Cameron (70,10), Arthur (20,30) and Jamie (45,60) on the the grid in meters.

1. To find the distances of Arthur and Jamie from Cameron we will use distance formula.

$\text{Distance}=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^{2}+(y_2-y_1)^{2}}$

$\text{Distance between Cameron and Arthur}=\sqrt{(70-20)^{2}+(10-30)^{2}}$

$\text{Distance between Cameron and Arthur}=\sqrt{(50)^{2}+(-20)^{2}}$

$\text{Distance between Cameron and Arthur}=\sqrt{2500+400}$

$\text{Distance between Cameron and Arthur}=\sqrt{2900}$

$\text{Distance between Cameron and Arthur}=53.8516480713450403\approx 54$

Therefore, the distance Arthur is about 54 meters away from Cameron.

2. Let us find the distance between Cameron and Jamie.

$\text{Distance between Cameron and Jamie}=\sqrt{(70-45)^{2}+(10-60)^{2}}$

$\text{Distance between Cameron and Jamie}=\sqrt{(25)^{2}+(-50)^{2}}$

$\text{Distance between Cameron and Jamie}=\sqrt{625+2500}$

$\text{Distance between Cameron and Jamie}=\sqrt{3125}$

$\text{Distance between Cameron and Jamie}=55.9016994374947424\approx 56$

Therefore, Jamie is about 56 meters away from Cameron.

3. We can see that 56 is greater than 54, therefore, Arthur is closer to Cameron.
