Answer:

3 sips equal a gulp

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

5sips+4gulps=1glass ----> equation A

13sips+7gulps=2glass

Divide by 2 both sides

6.5sips+3.5gulps=1glass ----> equation B

equate equation A and equation B

5sips+4gulps=6.5sips+3.5gulps

Group terms that contain the same variable

4gulps-3.5gulps=6.5sips-5sips

0.5gulps=1.5sips

gulps=(1.5/0.5)sips

gulps=3sips

therefore

3 sips equal a gulp

Mark and his friends ordered two pizzas are the same size the first pizza is cut into six slices of equal size the second pizza
tino4ka555 [31]

1/6 < 1/4 so 1/6 would equal 2/12 and 1/4 would equal 3/12 so which means if you take one from each it would be 5/12 but if you took 2 from the first one it would only be 2/12 which is why you need to read correctly because THE REASON MARK IS CORRECT IS BECAUSE 5/12 IS GREATER THAN 2/12

Maria will spin the arrow on the spinner 2 times. What is the probability that the arrow will stop on the same letter twice? 19
gavmur [86]
Suppose the spinner lands on <em>a</em>.  There's a 1/3 chance that it'll land on <em>a</em> the second time.
Suppose the spinner lands on <em>b</em>.  There's a 1/3 chance that it'll land on <em>b</em> the second time.
Suppose the spinner lands on <em>c</em>.  There's a 1/3 chance that it'll land on <em>c</em> the second time.

We've covered all possibilities for the first spin, and they're all equal, so their average is 1/3.

The probability that it'll land on the same letter twice is 33.3%.

Function g can be thought as scaled version of f(x)=x^2
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

g(x)=-\frac{1}{4} x^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph is reflected against the x-axis, meaning it is negative

Next, we see that the graph is stretched out, therefor we have a fraction

The fraction is -1/4

You can check by inputting the x values into the x variable.

The equation y=−0.0088x2+0.79x+15 models the speed x (in miles per hour) and average gas mileage y (in miles per gallon) for a v
Neko [114]

we are given

y=-0.0088x^2+0.79x+15

where

y is average gas mileage in miles per gallon

x is speed in miles per hour

we have to find average gas mileage at a speed of 60 miles per hour

so, we have

x=60mph

now, we can plug it and find y

y=-0.0088(60)^2+0.79(60)+15

we get

y=30.72

so,

the best approximate for the average gas mileage at a speed of 60 miles per hour is 30.7 mi/gal...........Answer

Which quadratic equation is equivalent to (x – 4)2 – (x – 4) – 6 = 0?
Viktor [21]

I hope choices must be given in the problem.

I am showing the method to find the equivalent equation of the above equation. You can match with your given choices.

First step is to expand the first term. So,

(x-4)² = (x - 4)(x - 4) Since a²= a*a

= x² - 4x - 4x + 4 * 4 By multiplying.

= x² -8x + 16 Combine the like terms.

So, (x - 4)² - (x -4) - 6

= x² - 8x + 16 - x + 4 - 6

= x² - 9x + 14 Combine the like terms.

So, equivalent equation of the above equation is x² - 9x + 14 = 0.
