Lupita bought 7 pounds of pretzels at a local wholesaler for $16.80. Her friend Charles bought 5 pounds of pretzels at the supermarket for $12.75. Charles thinks he got the better deal because $12.75 is less than $16.80. Is Charles’s reasoning correct? Explain why or why not.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Charles's reasoning is wrong.

Step-by-step explanation:

Lupita has 7 pounds for 16.8 and Charles has 5 pounds for 16.8.

Let's set up ratios.

So Lupita got the best deal, not Charles. Poor him.

Which could be the dimensions of a rectangle with an area of 60 square units? 1 by 60 units 4 by 15 units 8 by 8 units 10 by 6 units 60 by 2 units

Answers

Answer: 1 by 60 units

4 by 15 units

10 by 6 units

Step-by-step explanation: Any two numbers that when multiplied together produce 60 will work.

8 times 8 is 64, and 60 times 2 is 120. So those will not work as dimensions for a rectangle with 60 square units.

Answer: Lower-right corner  [tex]3^7 \times \frac{1}{3^4}[/tex]

Explanation:

We use the rule that

[tex]a^{-b} = \frac{1}{a^b}[/tex]

The negative exponent tells us to apply the reciprocal if we want the exponent to be positive.

In this case, a = 3 and b = 4

So,

[tex]a^{-b} = \frac{1}{a^b}\\\\3^{-4} = \frac{1}{3^4}[/tex]

which is why overall,

[tex]3^7\times 3^{-4} = 3^7 \times \frac{1}{3^4}[/tex]

Since there are multiple steps, we would use PEMDAS. Since dividing comes before subtracting, we would divide -4/7 first.
-4/7= −0.571428571428571
Since it’s a really big decimal, we’re going to round it to the nearest hundredth. That would get you -0.57
Next we would do 3-0.57
3-0.57= 2.43


So your answer would be 2.43

Since its a parallelogram, opposite sides are congruent. Therefore:

a - 1.5 = 20.5

  +1.5     +1.5

a = 22

Answer:

a=22

Step-by-step explanation:

a-1. 5 =20. 5 ( opposite side of parallelogram are equal )

or, a=20. 5+1. 5

or, a=22

you can do it from another side too.

2a-20. 8 = a + 1. 2 ( opposite side of parallelogram are equal )

or, 2a - a = 1. 2 + 20. 8

or, a = 22

The probability that Mae will roll an odd number

[tex]P(E) = \frac{3}{6}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

Given that Mae has a number cube with 6 sides that are numbered 1 through 6.

n(S) = { 1,2,3,4,5,6,} = 6

Let 'E ' be the event of odd numbers

Mae will roll an odd number

n(E) = {1, 3, 5} = 3

Step(ii):-

The probability that Mae will roll an odd number

[tex]P(E) = \frac{n(E)}{n(S)} = \frac{3}{6}[/tex]

Which value of y makes the inequality 3y^2+2(y-5)>8 true


A y=0
B y= -1
C y= -2
D y= -3

Answers

Answer:

Conclusion:

As y = -3 MAKES the inequality TRUE.

Therefore, option D i.e. y = -3 is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the inequality

3y² + 2(y - 5) > 8

For y = 0

substitute y = 0 in the inequality

3y² + 2(y - 5) > 8

3(0)² + 2(0 - 5) > 8

3(0) + 2(-5) > 8

0 - 10 > 8

-10 > 8

FALSE!

-10 can not be greater than 8.

Hence, y = 0 does not make the inequality true.

For y = -1

substitute y = -1 in the inequality

3y² + 2(y - 5) > 8

3(-1)² + 2(-1 - 5) > 8

3(1) + 2(-6) > 8

3 - 12 > 8

-9 > 8

FALSE!

-9 can not be greater than 8.

Hence, y = 1 does not make the inequality true.

For y = -2

substitute y = -2 in the inequality

3y² + 2(y - 5) > 8

3(-2)² + 2(-2 - 5) > 8

3(4) + 2(-7) > 8

12 - 14 > 8

-2 > 8

FALSE!

-2 can not be greater than 8.

Hence, y = -2 does not make the inequality true.

For y = -3

substitute y = -3 in the inequality

3y² + 2(y - 5) > 8

3(-3)² + 2(-3 - 5) > 8

3(9) + 2(-8) > 8

27 - 16 > 8

11 > 8

TRUE!

11 is indeed greater than 8.

Hence, y = -3 MAKES the inequality TRUE.

Conclusion:

As y = -3 MAKES the inequality TRUE.

Therefore, option D i.e. y = -3 is true.
