If a carton of eggs costs $1.25, how many cartons can be bought for $10?

2 answers:

8 0

The equation would be 1.25x = 10

x represents the number of cartons

isolate x by dividing 10 by 1.25

x = 8

Therefore 8 cartons can be bought for 10$.

The function g(x) = 5x2 – 10x written in vertex form is g(x) = 5(x – 1)2 – 5. The function g(x) is shown on the graph along with

natka813 [3]

The general vertex form of the a quadratic function is y = (x - h)^2 + k. In this form, the vertex is (h,k) and the axis of symmetry is x = h. Then, you only need to compare the vertex form of g(x) with the general vertex form of the parabole to conclude the vertex point and the axis of symmetry. g(x) = 5(x-1)^2 - 5 => h = 1 and k = - 5 => theis vertex = (1, -5), and the axis of symmetry is the straight line x = 1. <span>Answer: the vertex is (1,-5) and the symmetry axis is x = 1.</span>

The number w and 0.8 are additive inverses.

umka2103 [35]

Since, the number w and 0.8 are additive inverses.

A number 'a' is said to have an additive inverse '-a' if "a+ (-a)= 0".

Since, 'w' and '0.8' are additive inverses of each other such that $w + 0.8 = 0$

Therefore, the value of 'w' should be '-0.8' so that $-0.8 + 0.8 = 0$ .

So, the value of 'w' is =0.8

Now, Refer to the attached image which represents the position of 0.8 , w ( that is -0.8) and the sum of 0.8 and w.

Sum of 0.8 and w = 0.8 + w

= 0.8 +(-0.8)

= 0.

Two boats leave port at noon. Boat 1 sails due east at 12 knots. Boat 2 sails due south at 8 knots. At 2 pm the wind diminishes

Ivan

Answer:

14.86 knots.

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Given that:</em>

The boats leave the port at noon.

Speed of boat 1 = 12 knots due east

Speed of boat 2 = 8 knots due south

At 2 pm:

Distance traveled by boat 1 = 24 units due east

Distance traveled by boat 2 = 16 units due south

Now, speed of boat 1 changes to 9 knots:

At 3 pm:

Distance traveled by boat 1 = 24 + 9= 33 units due east

Distance traveled by boat 2 = 16+8 = 24 units due south

Now, speed of boat 1 changes to 8+7 = 15 knots

At 5 pm:

Distance traveled by boat 1 = 33 + 2 $\times$ 9= 51 units due east

Distance traveled by boat 2 = 24 + 2 $\times$ 15 = 54 units due south

Now, the situation of distance traveled can be seen by the attached right angled $\triangle AOB$ .

O is the port and A is the location of boat 1

B is the location of boat 2.

Using pythagorean theorem:

$\text{Hypotenuse}^{2} = \text{Base}^{2} + \text{Perpendicular}^{2}\\\Rightarrow AB^{2} = OA^{2} + OB^{2}\\\Rightarrow AB^{2} = 51^{2} + 54^{2}\\\Rightarrow AB^{2} = 2601+ 2916 = 5517\\\Rightarrow AB = 74.28\ units$

so, the total distance between the two boats is 74.28 units.

Change in distance per hour = $\dfrac{Total\ distance}{Total\ time}$

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{74.28}{5} = 14.86\ knots$

The flathead rail tunnel in Montana is about 7 3/4 miles long. A train travels at a speed of 3/4 mile per mile minute.how long w

kogti [31]

7 3/4 × 3/4 = So u add 3×3=9
Then add 4×4=16 Give you 9/16
Then you add that 7 you left out with 9/16
But just the 9 not the 16
7 × 9 = 63 And your answer is 63/16
Hope i help :-)
