Mr. Reynolds, the gym teacher, divided a class of 16 students into 2 equal teams. How many students were on the team?

Answer: To solve the equation "-5/8x + 10" for x when x equals -8, we can first substitute -8 for x in the equation:

-5/8(-8) + 10

Next, we can simplify the expression by performing the calculations within the parentheses:

-5/8(-8) + 10 = 5/8(8) + 10 = 5(8)/8 + 10 = 40/8 + 10 = 5 + 10 = 15

Therefore, the value of "-5/8x + 10" when x equals -8 is 15.

If a boy grows 5 inches, he will be one half a tall as his sister , his sister is 68 inches tall. So the height of the boy is 29 inches

In mathematics, the opposite of multiplication is the process called division. Finding the number of times one quantity is included within another is the procedure. The letters "/" or "" are typically used to denote this. For instance, 8 boys divided by 2 may be expressed as 8/2 or 82. The outcome in this situation would be 4, which is the quantity that 2 may be found in 8 times. The quotient, or outcome of the division, and the remainder, or quantity remaining after dividing, may both be found using division. Calculus, algebra, geometry, and other branches of mathematics all make use of the crucial mathematical notion of division.

The simplified form of the given expression has a numerator of (x + 9)(2x + 1) and the denominator of (x + 7) and the expression does exist when (x = 9) and this can be determined by factorizing the given expression.

By identifying the biggest factors that the terms in the equation have in common, factoring is a technique used in mathematics to simplify algebraic expressions.

Given :

Expression - [tex]\frac{3x^2 - 27x}{2x^2+13x-7}[/tex] ÷ [tex]\frac{3x}{4x^2-1}[/tex]

First, factorize the expression, [tex]4x^2-1[/tex]

So, [tex]4x^2-1[/tex] = [tex](2x-1) (2x+1)[/tex]

Now, factorize the equation: [tex]2x^2+13x-7[/tex]

[tex]2x^2+13x-7[/tex] = [tex]2x^2+14x -x -7[/tex]

                     = [tex]2x(x+7) -1(x+7)[/tex]

                     = [tex](2x-1) (x+7)[/tex]

Now, factorize the equation: [tex]3x^2-27x[/tex]

So, [tex]3x^2-27x[/tex] = [tex]3x(x-9)[/tex]

Now, substitute the factorized terms in the given expression:

= [tex]\frac{3x(x-9)}{(2x-1) (x+7)}[/tex] ÷ [tex]\frac{3x}{(2x-1) (2x+1)}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{(x+9) (2x+1)}{(x+7)}[/tex]

Khadija has 8 nickels and 2 quarters

From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:

Worth of coins = $0.90

Type of coins = Dimes and quarters

Represent the nickels with n and the quarters with q

So, we have the following representation

n + q = 10

0.05n + 0.25q = 0.9

Make n the subject

n = 10 - q

So, we have

0.05(10 - q) + 0.25q = 0.9

Evaluate the products

0.5 - 0.05q + 0.25q = 0.9

This gives

0.2q = 0.4

Divide both sides by 0.2

q = 2

Recall that

n = 10 - q

So, we have

n = 10 - 2

Evaluate

n = 8

Hence, the number of nickels is 8

Initial money spent = 1000$

They decided to make 0.3$ revenue on both candy and soda hence total 0.6$ revenue in one pack

one pack costs for 2$ where 0.6$ is revenue and actual cost is 1.4$

Total packs to sell = 1000/1.4

= 714 packs

y = 4x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

24 coins gained after 6 weeks

24 / 6 = 4 coins a week

y = 4x + 2

Answer:

y + 9 = 2(x + 5): slope is 2

y - 4 = -3(x - 3): slope is -3

(12/5, 29/5)

Step-by-step explanation:

y + 9 = 2(x + 5)

y + 9 - 9 = 2(x + 5) - 9   ==> subtract both sides by 9 to isolate y

y = 2(x + 5) - 9 ==> simplify

y = 2x + 2*5 - 9  ==> distribute x and 5 by multiplying them by 2

y = 2x + 10 - 9

y = 2x + 1  ==> slope is 2

y - 4 = -3(x - 3)

y - 4 + 4 = -3(x - 3) + 4  ==> add both sides by 4 to isolate y

y = -3(x - 3) + 4

y = -3x - 3(-3) + 4  ==> multiply x and -3 by -3 by distributive property

y = -3x - (-9) + 4

y = -3x + 9 + 4  ==> simplify

y = -3x + 13  ==> slope is -3

Since y = -3x + 13 and y = 2x + 1:

2x + 1 = -3x + 13  ==> solve for x

2x + 3x + 1 = -3x + 3x + 13

5x + 1 = 13

5x + 1 - 1 = 13 - 1

5x = 12

x = 12/5

y = 2x + 1

y = 2(12/5) + 1  ==> plug in 12/5 for x

y = 24/5 + 1  ==> solve for y

y = 24/5 + 5/5

y = (24+5)/5  ==> y = 29/5   ==> (x, y) = (12/5, 29/5)

The function y = (x + 2)^(1/2) + 3 belongs to the family of square root functions. A square root function is a type of function in which the independent variable (in this case, x) is under the radical sign.

In mathematics, a function is a relationship between a set of potential inputs and an equally likely set of outputs, with the condition that each input is associated to just one possible outcome. In other terms, a function is a category of mathematical action that accepts one or more parameters for input and generates a return result. Equations or graphs are frequently used to depict functions, which are useful for both modeling and solving mathematical issues.

In computer programming, a function is a block of code that completes a particular task and can be used repeatedly throughout a program. Programmers have the option of creating their own functions or using ones that are already included in the language.

Number of people is represented by N(t)

Time is represented by 't' hours

Function representing relation between number of people who heard about the rumor and time

The​ manager's likely​ error is $20 if a store is instructed by corporate headquarters to put a markup of ​11% on all items. An item costing ​$18 is displayed by the store.  

It's the ratio of two integers stated as a fraction of a hundred parts. It is a metric for comparing two sets of data, and it is expressed as a percentage using the percent symbol.

It is given that:

A markup of ​11% on all items. An item costing ​$18 is displayed by the store manager at a selling price of ​$2.

The original price of the T.V is 350 dollars

a percentage is a number or ratio that can be expressed as a fraction of 100. If we have to calculate percent of a number, divide the number by the whole and multiply by 100. Hence, the percentage means, a part per hundred. The word per cent means per 100. It is represented by the symbol “%”.

le the original price of T.V be x.

so if the t.v was sold 40% off, I means that the sale price of T.V  = 60x/100

0.6x.

if the original price is 140 more than sale price, it means sale price is 140 less = x - 140

Equating both expressions we have

x - 140 = 0.6x

x - 0.6x = 140

0.4x = 140
