Hello There!

Games won = 84
Games lost = 84 - 14
Games lost = 70
Total games played = games lost + games lost
Total games played = 84 + 70
Total games played = 154.

They played 154 games and lost 70 games.

What value of c makes x2 − 12x + c a perfect square trinomial? −36 −24 24 36

Answers

Take half of the middle coefficient.
Then square it.

-12/2 = -6

(-6)^2 = 36

c = 36

Answer: The value of c must be 36 to make it perfect square trinomial.

Explanation:

A standard perfect square trinomial is [tex]x^2+2ax+a^2=(x+a)^2[/tex] where [tex]a^2[/tex] is the constant term.

Given trinomial [tex]x^2-12x+c=x^2+2(-6)a+c[/tex]

On comparing with standard perfect square trinomial we get a=-6

Therefore the constant term c=[tex]a^2=(-6)^2=36[/tex]

Such that the trinomial becomes [tex]x^2-12x+36=x^2+2(-6)x+(-6)^2=(x-6)^2[/tex] a perfect square trinomial.

Hence the value of c for the given trinomial must be 36 to make it perfect square trinomial.

Answers

Final answer:

The algebraic expression for the word phrase 40% of x is 0.40x.

Explanation:

The algebraic expression for the word phrase 40% of x is 0.40x. To find 40% of x, you multiply x by 0.40. This means that 40% of x is equal to 0.40 times x.

Final answer:

To write an algebraic expression for the phrase '40% of x', multiply x by 0.40, resulting in the expression 0.40x.

Explanation:

The student is asking to write an algebraic expression for the phrase 40% of x. To convert this phrase into an algebraic expression, we take into account that "of" typically means multiplication in mathematics, and we know that 40% can be written as 0.40. Therefore, the algebraic expression for 40% of x is 0.40 * x or 0.40x.

One linear function, t(x), can be modeled by the values in the table below. A second linear function can be modeled by the equation 4x − y + 4 = 0. When comparing the x-intercepts of these lines, which function has the largest x-intercept and what is this value?


x t(x)
−3 0
0 −4
3 −8
6 −12
9 −16

t(x) has the largest x-intercept: −4.
4x − y + 4 = 0 has the largest x-intercept: −1.
t(x) has the largest x-intercept: −3.
4x − y + 4 = 0 has the largest x-intercept: 4.

Answers

We know from table that x intercept (when y or t(x) is 0) is -3

next we can move over the -y from the given equation

y = 4+ 4x

solving for when y is 0

0 = 4 + 4x
-4 = 4x
x=-1

Thus the first equation has larger intercept of -1

A.$165.99
B.$170.10
C.$165.51
D.$174.90

HELPPPPPP ME

Answers

Answer:

Option B. $170.10

Step-by-step explanation:

Gail bought groceries worth = $165.00

She gets rebate of taxes on the amount = $80.00

She has to pay tax on = 165 - 80 = $85.00

In her state sales tax are = 6%

So her tax on groceries  = 6% of 85 = 0.06 × 85 = $5.10

Now she paid total amount = 165 + 5.10 = $170.10

Gail paid $170.10 for the groceries, including sale tax

Option B. $170.10

Solve each system by elimination:
9a-3d=3
-3a+d=-1

Answers

so, the idea behind the elimination is that, you multiply either or both equations by some factor, so that one variable, get a negative twin, and then the twins cancel each other... so... let's do so by multiplying the bottom equation by 3, so we end up with "3d" at the bottom and -3d + 3d zaps each other.

[tex]\bf \begin{array}{lllllll} 9a-3d=3&&~~~9a\underline{-3d}=3\\ -3a+d=-1\implies &\boxed{\times 3}\implies &-9a\underline{+3d}=-3\\ &&--------\\ &&~~0~+~~0 = 0 \end{array}[/tex]

holy macaroni, all the values went kaput.... so, what's cooking?

well, it turns out that, the top equation is really the bottom equation in disguise, so both equations are really twins, and therefore they have infinitely many solutions, not just one solution.

graph wise, if you graph one and graph the other, what will occur is that, one will be pancaked on top of the other, and so every single point in the graph is solution.

The concession stand at a sports arena sells large 3-pints sodas. on an average night four sodas are sold each minute. how many gallons of soda are sold per hour?

Answers

The first thing you must know to answer this is that 1 pint = .125 gallons. That means that each 3 pints drink sold is .375 gallons (.125*3=.375). Now, the stand sells 4 of these .375 gallon drinks a minute. Therefore they would sell 240 of these an hour, since there are 60 minutes in an hour. You can calculated this using this equation [(4 drinks/1min)*(60min/1hour)]. Now we can multiply the number of drinks sold in an hour by the amount of soda in each drink to get the total gallons sold per hour. The equation for this is 240*.375. This equals 90. Therefore the answer is 90 gallons per hour.

Scott earns 16.85 per hour at his job. He works 7 hour per day , 4 days per week. What Scott's gross income in 4 weeks

Answers

Scott's gross income in 4 weeks, rounded to the nearest cent, is $1887.20.

Calculate Scott's daily earnings:

  Scott earns $16.85 per hour, and he works for 7 hours per day.

  Daily earnings = $16.85/hour × 7 hours = $117.95

Calculate Scott's weekly earnings:

  Scott works 4 days per week.

  Weekly earnings = Daily earnings × Number of days worked per week

                  = $117.95/day × 4 days/week

                  = $471.80

Calculate Scott's gross income for 4 weeks:

  Scott works for 4 weeks.

  Gross income for 4 weeks = Weekly earnings × Number of weeks

                            = $471.80/week × 4 weeks

                            = $1887.20

However, we need to ensure the precision of the final answer. As currency involves cents, it's important to round appropriately.

Since we're dealing with money, we'll round to the nearest cent.

After rounding, the gross income for 4 weeks is $1887.20.

What is the value of x?

x = [ ]

Answers

Attached the solution. It is important to know the 30-60-90 and 45-45-90 special right triangles.

Answer:

[tex]x=4[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given an image of two right triangles and we asked to find the value of x.

First of all , we will find the length of segment RT using sine.

[tex]\text{Sin}=\frac{\text{Opposite}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}[/tex]

Upon substituting our given values in above formula we will get,

[tex]\text{Sin}(60^{\circ})=\frac{2\sqrt{3}}{RT}[/tex]

[tex]RT=\frac{2\sqrt{3}}{\text{Sin}(60^{\circ})}[/tex]

[tex]RT=\frac{2\sqrt{3}}{\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}}[/tex]

[tex]RT=\frac{2\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{3}}\times 2[/tex]

[tex]RT=2\times 2[/tex]

[tex]RT=4[/tex]

Now we know that length of segment RT and angle QRT of triangle QRT, so we will use tangent to find the length of segment QR (x) as:

[tex]\text{tan}=\frac{\text{Opposite}}{\text{Adjacent}}[/tex]

[tex]\text{tan}(45^{\circ})=\frac{x}{4}[/tex]

Multiplying both sides of our equation by 4 we will get,

[tex]\text{tan}(45^{\circ})*4=\frac{x}{4}*4[/tex]

[tex]\text{tan}(45^{\circ})*4=x[/tex]

Substituting [tex]\text{tan}(45^{\circ})=1[/tex] we will get,

[tex]1*4=x[/tex]

[tex]4=x[/tex]

Therefore, the value of x is 4 units.

Write y = 3x^2-12x+11 in vertex form. I know the answer, just dont know how to show the work.

Answers

I'll write it out instead of typing it.  I think it would be easier to read.

The equation in vertex form is given as:

y = a (x - h) ² + k where a, h, and k are constant.

The equation y = 3x² - 12x + 11 in vertex form is  y = 3(x - 2)² + 7.

What is an equation?

An equation is a mathematical statement that is made up of two expressions connected by an equal sign.

The equation in vertex form is given as:

y = a (x - h) ² + k where a, h, and k are constant.

We have,

y = 3x² - 12x + 11

3x² - 12x can be written as:

Taking out common value.

3(x² - 4x).

Now,

y = 3(x² - 4x)  + 11 _____(A)

x² - 4x can be written as:

Squaring we get,

= x² - 2.2x + 2² - 2²

= (x² - 2.2x + 4) - 4

[ (a - b)² = a² - 2ab + b ]

= (x - 2)² - 4 ________(B)

Now,

From (A) and (B) we get,

y = 3 (x - 2)² - 4 + 11

y = 3(x - 2)² + 7

Thus,

The equation y = 3x² - 12x + 11 in vertex form is  y = 3(x - 2)² + 7.

Lisa earns $8.10 an hour and worked 40 hours. Jamie earns $10.80 an hour. How many hours would Jamie need to work to equal Lisa’s earnings over 40 hours

Answers

30 hours is how much she would work

Answer:

it takes 30 hours for Jamie to equal Lisa's earnings

Step-by-step explanation:

Lisa earns $8.10 an hour and worked 40 hours.

Total amount Lisa earns = rate times hours

Total amount Lisa earns =[tex]8.10 \cdot 40=324[/tex]

Jamie earns $10.80 an hour

LEt 'n' be the number of hours Jamie works

Total amount Jamie earns =[tex]10.80 \cdot n=10.80n[/tex]

we need to find out 'n' when Jamie earnings is equal to Lisa earnings

[tex]10.80n= 324[/tex]

Divide by 10.80 on both sides

n= 30

So it takes 30 hours for Jamie to equal Lisa's earnings

There are two positive numbers. four times the small number plus 3 times the big number is 41. two times the small number plus the big number is 15. what is 10 times the big number minus 6 times the small number;

Answers

the small number is 2 the large number is 11.
4(2)+11(3)=41
2(2)+11=15
11(10) -2(6) = 98


hope that helps

Final answer:

To find the value of 10 times the big number minus 6 times the small number, we need to solve a system of equations. The solution to the system is x = 2 and y = 11, so the value of 10y - 6x is 98.

Explanation:

To find the value of 10 times the big number minus 6 times the small number, we need to solve the system of equations:

4x + 3y = 41 (equation 1)

2x + y = 15 (equation 2)

We can first solve equation 2 for y by subtracting 2x from both sides: y = 15 - 2x. Now we can substitute this value of y into equation 1:

4x + 3(15 - 2x) = 41

Simplifying, we get: 4x + 45 - 6x = 41

Combining like terms, we have: -2x + 45 = 41

Subtracting 45 from both sides, we get: -2x = -4

Dividing both sides by -2, we get: x = 2

Now we can substitute this value of x back into equation 2 to solve for y:

2(2) + y = 15

Simplifying, we get: 4 + y = 15

Subtracting 4 from both sides, we get: y = 11

Finally, we can calculate 10 times the big number minus 6 times the small number:

10y - 6x = 10(11) - 6(2) = 110 - 12 = 98
