ms ruiz planted 14 flowers in 3 pots.she planted 4 flowers in one pot and split the rest equally between the other 2 pots write and solve an equation to find the number of flowers ms ruiz planted in eaxh of 2 pots

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: So, Ms. Ruiz has 14 flowers.  If she put 4 flowers in 1 pot, she has 10 flowers left.  If she splits the rest evenly, she gets 5 flowers each.  Let's make this into an equation: 14=2x+4.  In other words, 14 flowers equals x flowers in one pot, plus x flowers in another pot, plus 4 flowers in another pot.  (Note that 2x=x+x: 2x is another way of writing that out.)  Now, we solve using inverse operations: 14-4=2x+4-4.  10=2x.  10/2=2x/2.  x=5.

Answer: 14=2x+4; x=5
Answer 2
Answer: Your answer should be 14=2x+4 ; x=5

Ned has scored 84 points in the first 6 games of the basketball season. How many points per game has Ned scored?

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is  14.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing we should do in this exercise is to analyze the information we have.

We know that in a total of 6 games, Ned has scored 84 points. If what we want is to get an average of how many points Ned made per game, what we should do is divide the total points for each game.

So:

84: 6 = 14

In this way we can verify that the correct answer is 14.

You multiply the two numbers together. 84 X 6=504

Which expression is a factor of 3ab-6a+4b-8

Answers

the possible factors are (b-2) and (3a+4) but out of the possible following choice tho the answer would be (3a+4)

Final answer:

The expression 2a - 4 is a factor of 3ab - 6a + 4b - 8.

Explanation:

The expression 2a - 4 is a factor of 3ab - 6a + 4b - 8.

To check if an expression is a factor, we can substitute the values of a and b into the expression and see if it simplifies to zero. When we substitute a = 1 and b = 2 into 2a - 4, we get 2(1) - 4 = 2 - 4 = -2. And when we substitute these values into 3ab - 6a + 4b - 8, we get 3(1)(2) - 6(1) + 4(2) - 8 = 6 - 6 + 8 - 8 = 0. Since the expression evaluates to zero, it is a factor of the given expression.

A worm travels 1250 millimeters.how many meters did the worm travel?

Answers

we know that

1\ meter=1,000\ millimeters

so

by proportion

(1)/(1,000)(m)/(mm) =(x)/(1,250)(m)/(mm) \n \n1,000*x=1,250\n \nx=1,250/1,000\n \nx=1.25\ m

therefore

the answer is

1.25\ m

m-meter\nmm-millimeter\n1m=1,000mm\to1mm=0.001m\n------------------\n\n1250mm=(1250\cdot0.001)m=1.250m=\boxed{1.25m}

Find the least common denominator for these two rational expressions a / a^2 - 6a + 9

7 / a^2 - 8a + 15

Answers

factor the 2 denominators:-


a^2 - 6a + 9 = (a - 3)(a - 3)


a^2 - 8a + 15 = (a - 3)(a - 5)


((a - 3) is common to both sets of factors so the LCD is:-


(a - 3)(a - 3)(a - 5) or this can be written as (a -3)^2(a - 5)




What are the amplitude, period, and midline of a function?

Answers

Answer:

Some functions repeat forever (sine and cosine) and those functions are known as periodic functions.

The period goes from from any point to the next matching point or one peak to the next peak.

The mid line or center line is a horizontal axis about which the graph of a periodic function oscillates.

The amplitude is the height from the mid line to the peak .
