e points did she score in the second game?

35=(6*x)+x
35=6x=x
35=7x / divide each side by 7
5=x

x= the first game

5*6= 30

30 points in the second game

Good Luck!

A candy store sells caramels and milk chocolate by the pound the table below shows the total cost in dollars for a pound of each

MakcuM [25]

The cost of $1\frac{3}{4}$ pounds chocolate milk is $6.25 more than the cost of $1\frac{3}{4}$ pounds of Caramel.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Cost of one pound of Caramels = $10.28

Cost of $1\frac{3}{4}$ pounds of Caramel = $10.28*1\frac{3}{4}$

Cost of $1\frac{3}{4}$ pounds = $10.28*\frac{7}{4}=\frac{71.96}{4}= \$17.99$

Cost of one pound of chocolate milk = $13.85

Cost of $1\frac{3}{4}$ pounds = $13.85*1\frac{3}{4}=13.85*\frac{7}{4}$

Cost of $1\frac{3}{4}$ pounds = $\frac{96.95}{4}=\$24.24$

Difference = 24.24 - 17.99 = $6.25

The cost of $1\frac{3}{4}$ pounds chocolate milk is $6.25 more than the cost of $1\frac{3}{4}$ pounds of Caramel.

A King in ancient times agreed to reward the inventor of chess with one grain of wheat on the first of the 64 squares of a chess

statuscvo [17]

Let's start by visualising this concept.

Number of grains on square:
1 2 4 8 16 ...

We can see that it starts to form a geometric sequence, with the common ratio being 2.

For the first question, we simply want the fifteenth term, so we just use the nth term geometric form:
$T_n = ar^{n - 1}$
$T_{15} = 2^{14} = 16384$

Thus, there are 16, 384 grains on the fifteenth square.

The second question begs the same process, only this time, it's a summation. Using our sum to n terms of geometric sequence, we get:
$S_n = \frac{a(r^{n} - 1)}{r - 1}$
$S_{15} = \frac{2^{15} - 1}{2 - 1}$
$S_{15} = 2^{15} - 1 = 32767$

Thus, there are 32, 767 total grains on the first 15 squares, and you should be able to work the rest from here.

Answer: choice D

----------------------------------------------

Work Shown:

I'm assuming the problem is -4*(1-x) <= -12+2x where the first term is -4 and not 4

-4*(1-x) <= -12+2x
-4*(1-x) <= -12+2x
-4+4x <= -12+2x
-4+4x-2x <= -12+2x-2x
-4+2x <= -12
-4+2x+4 <= -12+4
2x <= -8
2x/2 <= -8/2
x <= -4

To graph x <= -4, you plot a closed circle at -4. Then you shade to the left of the closed circle. This matches with choice D

The SAT and ACT exams are often used to predict a student's first-term college grade point average (GPA). Different formulas are

spayn [35]

Answer:

In this example it seems that "a" is a fixed value that is added to adjust the scale value. . It seems that "b" is a factor that adjust the value of the ACT score as a predictor for success in the chosen field of study.

Step-by-step explanation: The scores from the SAT and ACT are not in the same format as GPA. So the scale needs adjustment. Also the tests measure different knowledge and skills. They may be more or less reliable as predictors of success in a given field of study, so the "b" factor would change for different majors.
