Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:  Kai picked 858 blueberries and Nico picked 78 blueberries.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that Kai picked 11 times as many blueberries as Nico and together they picked 936 blueberries.

We are to find the number of blueberries that Kai and Nico picked.

Let x and y represents the number of blueberries that Kai and Nico picked respectively.

Then, according to the given information, we have

x=11y~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)\n\nx+y=936~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(ii)

Substituting the value of x from equation (i) in equation (ii), we get

x+y=936\n\n\Rightarrow 11y+y=936\n\n\Rightarrow 12y=936\n\n\Rightarrow y=(936)/(12)\n\n\Rightarrow y=78.

And, from equation (i), we get

x=11*78=858.

Thus, Kai picked 858 blueberries and Nico picked 78 blueberries.

Answer 2
Answer: First you need to break it down. If Kai picked 11 times more blueberries then Nico, the amount of blueberries he picked multiplied by the amount of blueberries Kai picked would be 936. Nico had to have picked more blueberries then ten, because 10x11 is only 110, and that isnt 936. He had to have picked more then 20, because 20x11 is 222. And he picked more then 30 because 30x11 is only 333. Normally I would keep on doing this, and soon you will get to 85. Thats your answer, and i hope i kinda helped you

Can someone explain to me how to do this? :

8^2y+4 = 16^y+1

Answers

Answer:

y = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the problem is 8^(2y+4)=16^(y+1), it would be nice if we could convert both sides of this equation to the same base; that way, we could compare the exponents directly in an equation of their own. Fortunately, 8 and 16 are both powers of 2 -- 2^3 and 2^4, we can rewrite the original equation by substituting those in:

(2^3)^(2y+4)=(2^4)^(y+1)

When you have an exponent raised to another exponent, you multiply those exponents together, so we can simplify our equation by distributing a 3 in the left exponent and a 4 in the right:

2^(3\cdot(2y+4))=2^(4\cdot(y+1))\n2^(3\cdot2y+3\cdot4)=2^(4\cdot y+4\cdot1)\n2^(6y+12)=2^(4y+4)

With both of our bases the same, we can now simply compare their exponents directly to solve for y:

6y+12=4y+4\n2y=-8\ny=-4

In the spinner below the large wedges are twice the size of the smaller ones. What is true about the probability of landing on 6 and the probability of landing on 5?​

Answers

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

If we take each small section to be "1" unit, we can say the large sections (for "2" and "5") are "2" units each. So in total there will be 8 sections.

Since 5 is "2" sections, we can say:

P(5) = 2/8 = 1/4

And 6 is "1" section, so we can say:

P(6) = 1/8

Definitely, Probability of landing a 6 is HALF that of probability of landing a 5. Also we can see this is the picture.

So, from the answer choices, A is right.
