Two friends leave school at the same time, Sarah is heading due north and Beth is heading due east. One hour later they are 10 miles apart. If Sarah had traveled 8 miles from the school, how many miles had Beth traveled?6 miles
10 miles
8 miles
4 miles

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: If you picture this scene in your head, you will get a simple 3x4x5 right triangle. 4 times 2 is 8, 5 times 2 is 10, so Sarah should, by now, have traveled 3 times 2 miles.
Final answer: Sarah has traveled 6 miles after an hour.
Hope this helped! :)

Helping tip: The reason it is not 4 is because they are not traveling west and east away from each other. They are traveling north and east, so they are moving in two directions to form a right triangle, and the hypotenuse would be 10 (miles). The side, or distance, that Beth has traveled is 8. So as this is a typical variation of a 3x4x5 triangle, Sarah will have traveled 6 miles.
Answer 2
Answer:
wouldn't it actually be 2 miles but since its not listed I would say 4 because if there 10 miles apart and Sarah is 8miles from the school were they both started then 10-8=2. or you can take the two and divide it by 8 and get 4

7/8=?/ 48 what is the answer

Answers

Let x be the missing number

7/8 = x/48

Cross- multiply

7/8= x/48

(7)*(48) = x*8

336 = 8x

Flip the equation

8x = 336

Divide both sides by 8

8x/8 = 336/8

x= 42

Check my answer

First , replace x by 42

7/8 = 42/48

The seventh term of the sequence -2, -6, -10, -14, ... is _____. -26 -24 -22 -20

Answers

We'll it keeps on subtracting by 4 to get each number.

-2,-6,-10,-14,-18,-22,-26.

Negative 26 is your answer. Hope this helped!

Answer:

-26

Step-by-step explanation:

We are counting by 4s

1) 2 - 4 = -2

2) -2 - 4 = -6

3) -6 - 4 = -10

4) -10 - 4 = -14

5) -14 - 4 = -18

6) -18 - 4 = -22

7) -22 - 4 = -26

Find the difference using fraction bars or a paper and pencil. Write your answer in simplest form.11/12 - 3/4

Answers

First, find the lowest common denominator. That is 12. You only have to change 3/4 into 12ths.

3/4 = 9/12

11/12 – 9/12 = 2/12 = 1/6
We must find a common denominator, first


11/12 - 9/12


2/12


Simplified, it becomes 1/6

–6x4y – 7x3y2 + 4x2y3 – 3xy4 – y5

Answers

The difference of the polynomials given is  -2x³y² + 9x²y³ - 3xy⁴ - 6x⁴y + y⁵

Given are two polynomials are :

(-2x³y² + 4x²y3³ - 3xy⁴) and (6x⁴y - 5x²y³ - y⁵)

We need to subtract the polynomials and find the difference.

(-2x³y² + 4x²y3³ - 3xy⁴) - (6x⁴y - 5x²y³ - y⁵)

By multiplying the signs into the brackets

= -2x³y² + 4x²y3³ - 3xy⁴ - 6x⁴y + 5x²y³ + y⁵

Grouping the like terms, we get

= -2x³y² + (4x²y3³ + 5x²y³) - 3xy⁴ - 6x⁴y + y⁵

= -2x³y² + 9x²y³ - 3xy⁴ - 6x⁴y + y⁵

Therefore, the difference between the polynomials is -2x³y² + 9x²y³ - 3xy⁴ - 6x⁴y + y⁵

At a hockey game, a vender sold a combined total of 176 sodas and hot dogs. The number of sodas sold was three times the number of hot dogs sold. Find the number of sodas and the number of hot dogs sold.

Answers

Answer:

Hot dogs sold: 44

Sodas sold: 132

Step-by-step explanation:

This is is a problem of a system of two equations with two unknowns. This can be solved in multiple ways (the substitution method, the elimination method, the equalization method, the graphic method...) . I will resolve it using the equalization method that is a little bit more practical from my point of view.

First, we have to determine the system by the data we are given:

\left \{ {{y+x=176} \atop {y=3x}} \right.

Where:

y=sodas sold\nx=hot dogs sold

Secondly, we are going to isolate any variable from both equations. I chose to isolate Y.

\left \{ {{y=176-x} \atop {y=3x}} \right.

Thirdly, we equalizate both equations.

Y= Y

So we get:

176-x=3x

Then we isolate X.

-x-3x=-176

-4x=-176

x=-176:(-4)

x=44

So now we know that the number of hot dogs sold was 44! If the sodas sold were three times the number of hot dogs sold, then we know that there were 132 sodas sold at the hockey game!

Find n.
3/10= n/50
n=______

Answers

If you would like to find n, you can do this using the following steps:

3/10 = n/50
n = 3/10 * 50
n = 3 * 5
n = 15

The correct result would be n = 15.
