Seth has 2 ¾ candy bars to give away. If he gives each person ⅛ of a candy bar, how many people will get candy?

Answer: 10 , 10

Step-by-step explanation:

By solving one-step matrix equation, we get [tex]x_{1} =10[/tex], [tex]x_{2}=10[/tex].

A matrix equation is an equation of the form Ax = b , where A is an m × n matrix, b is a vector in R m , and x is a vector whose coefficients x 1 , x 2 ,..., x n are unknown.

A one-step equation is an algebraic equation you can solve in only one step. You've solved the equation when you get the variable by itself, with no numbers in front of it, on one side of the equal sign.

Given one-step matrix equation

[tex]\left[\begin{array}{c}x_{1} &x_{2} \end{array}\right]+\left[\begin{array}{c}-2 &5 \end{array}\right] =\left[\begin{array}{c}8 &15 \end{array}\right][/tex]

By adding the matrix the respective equations are:

[tex]x_{1} +(-2)=8[/tex].....(1)

[tex]x_{2} +(5)=15[/tex].....(2)

By solving [tex]x_{1} +(-2)=8[/tex]

⇒ [tex]x_{1} -2=8[/tex]

Add 2 on the both sides of the equation

⇒ [tex]x_{1}-2+2 =8+2[/tex]

⇒ [tex]x_{1} =8+2[/tex]

⇒ [tex]x_{1} =10[/tex]

Solving equation 2

[tex]x_{2} +(5)=15[/tex]

⇒ [tex]x_{2} +5=15[/tex]

Subtract 5 on both sides of the equation

⇒ [tex]x_{2} +5-5=15-5[/tex]

⇒ [tex]x_{2}=10[/tex]

By solving one-step matrix equation, we get [tex]x_{1} =10[/tex], [tex]x_{2}=10[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

f(-4) means x = -4 so then plug -4 into the function.

y = -4²-16

y = 0

Answer:

f(-4) =0

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=x²-16

Let x = -4

f(-4) = (-4)^2 -16

       =  16-16

       = 0

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf 682}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The nth term of an arithmetic sequence can be found using the following formula.

[tex]a_n=a+d(n-1)[/tex]

where a is the first term, d is the common difference, and n is the term.

First, we should find the common difference.

We can do this by subtracting each term from the term following it. Basically, subtract the first term from the second term, the second from the third, and so on.

[tex]d= a_2-a_1[/tex]

The second term is 25 and the first is 16.

[tex]d= 25-16[/tex]

[tex]d=9[/tex]

Now we know the common difference is 9. We also know the first term is 16 and we are looking for the 75th term.

[tex]d=9 \\a=16 \\n= 75[/tex]

Substitute the values into the formula.

[tex]a_{75}=16+9(75-1)[/tex]

Solve according the PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction).

Solve the parentheses first.

[tex]a_{75}=16+9(74)[/tex]

Multiply next.

[tex]a_{75}=16+666[/tex]

Finally, add.

[tex]a_{75}=682[/tex]

The 75th term in the sequence is 682.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3 x 4 - 5

= 7

The required output of the given function at x = 4 is given as f(x) = 7.

The process in mathematics to operate and interpret the function to make the function or expression simple or more understandable is called simplifying and the process is called simplification.

Here,
To evaluate output from the function f(x) = 3x - 5, at x = 4 we must put the value of x in the function:
f(4) = 3(4) - 5
f(4) = 7

Thus, the required output of the given function at x = 4 is given as f(x) = 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

[tex]\left\{\begin{matrix}2p + 4c = 31.50\\3p + 2c = 33.25\end{matrix}\right.[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call (as suggested)

p = the cost of one pizza

c = the cost of one cheeseburger

The Anderson Family ordered 2 pizzas and 4 cheeseburgers and paid $31.50, thus:

2p + 4c = 31.50             [1]

Next weekend, they ate at the same restaurant and ordered 3 pizzas and 2 cheeseburgers for $33.25, thus:

3p + 2c = 33.25           [2]

To know the cost of one pizza and one cheeseburger, we need to solve the system of equations defined by [1] and [2]

[tex]\left\{\begin{matrix}2p + 4c = 31.50\\3p + 2c = 33.25\end{matrix}\right.[/tex]

Answer:

  a = 57.5

  b = 90

  c = 65

Step-by-step explanation:

The measure of an inscribed angle is half that of the arc it intercepts. The angle at 'a' intercepts an arc of 115°, so its measure is (115/2)° = 57.5°

__

The inscribed angle at 'b' is a semicircle, 180°, so the measure of 'b' is (180/2)° = 90°.

__

The arc 'c' is the remainder of a semicircle after 115° have been taken away. Its measure is 180° -115° = 65°.

  (a, b, c) = (57.5, 90, 65)

Answer: Few phrases make me cringe the way I do when I hear, “Ours is not to reason why; just invert and multiply.” A student’s job in math class is to reason, and a teacher’s job is to help the students see that math makes sense. Understanding division of fractions is complicated, bringing together many ideas that build up to a method that makes sense, especially in the tricky case of a fraction divided by a fraction. Liping Ma writes about research asking teachers to explain what it means to divide by a fraction. Most U.S. teachers were startled to find how difficult this was for them. What if we start with the simpler case of a whole number divided by a fraction?

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

To make the perfect square the first step is  Subtract 40 from both sides option (A) is correct.

Any equation of the form [tex]\rm ax^2+bx+c=0[/tex]  where x is variable and a, b, and c are any real numbers where a ≠ 0 is called a quadratic equation.

As we know, the formula for the roots of the quadratic equation is given by:

[tex]\rm x = \dfrac{-b \pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

The complete question is:

Which is the best first step to solve 5x²+12x = 40 by completing the square?

We have a quadratic equation:

5x²+12x = 40

To make the perfect square:

First, subtract 40 from both sides.

5x²+12x - 40 = 40 - 40

5x²+12x - 40 = 0

Thus, to make the perfect square the first step is  Subtract 40 from both sides option (A) is correct.
