Allison is going to the post office to buy 34cent stamps and 3 cent adjustment stamps. Since the current postage rate is 49 cent she will need 5 times as many 3 cent adjusment stamps as 34 cent stamps. If she has $12.25 to spend, what is the largest number of 34 cent stamps she can buy?

Answers

Answer 1

Determine the largest number of 34 cent stamps she can buy

The largest number of 34 cent stamps she can buy is 30

Given:

Total money = $12.25

let

x = 34 cent stamp

y = 3 cent stamp

34 cent stamp = 5 × 3 cent stamp

x + y = 0.49

x = 5y

0.34x + 0.3y = 12.25

0.35(5y) + 0.3y = 12.25

1.75y + 0.3y = 12.25

2.05y = 12.25

y = 12.25/2.05

y = 5.9756097560975

approximately, y = 6

Recall,

x = 5y

x = 5(6)

x = 30

Therefore, the largest number of 34 cent stamps she can buy is 30

Answer:

It's not proportional

Step-by-step explanation:

The first 2 days are proportional because, they travel at an increment of 60 miles an hour.

But, on the third day, it is not proportional because they travel at an increment of 90 miles an hour.

360 / 4 = 90

120 / 2 = 60

60 / 1 = 60

Answer:

The answer would be yes and no!! But, it would be no!

Step-by-step Explanation:

Yes: On Monday and Tuesday, those would be proportional because they are just counting by 60´s. 60 plus 60 would give you 120.

No: On Wednesday, this ¨person¨ traveled 360 miles in 3 hours. Now, you aren´t counting by 60´s anymore. Even though you started out counting by the 60´s, doesn´t mean you will finish like that.

60´s:

1 hour = 60 mi

2 hours = 120 mi

3 hours should be = 180 miles, not 360 Because:

360 mi would be equal to 6 hours. Do you see where I´m going with this?

Hope that helps you so you can put it in a mathematical way. Have a great day!!

help me im having trouble on slopes

Answers

Answer:

The slope-intercept form of an equation looks like this: y=mx+b

The m stands for the slope and the b stands for the y-intercept.

We need two points from the line to write out this equation.

For example (-2,0) and (1,2)

Now that we have the slope, we can plug it into our equation: y= 2/3x + b

To get b, our y-intercept, we just need to plug in one of the points found and solve. For example (-2,0)

Now that we have both our m and b values, we can plug them in to get our equation: y=2/3x + 4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]m= \frac{y1-y2}{x1-x2} = \frac{0-2}{-2-1}[/tex]

[tex]m=\frac{-2}{-3} = \frac{2}{3}[/tex]

[tex]0=\frac{2}{3}(-2)+b[/tex]

[tex]0=-\frac{4}{3}+b\\ 0+\frac{4}{3}=-\frac{4}{3}+\frac{4}{3}+b\\ 0+\frac{4}{3}=b\\ \frac{0*3}{3}+\frac{4}{3}=b\\ \frac{4}{3}=b[/tex]

The correct statements are,

m∠R > 90°

m∠S + m∠T < 90°

m∠R > m∠T

m∠R > m∠S

What is mean by Triangle?

A triangle is a three sided polygon, which has three vertices and three angles which has the sum 180 degrees.

Given that;

Here, RST is a triangle,

Therefore,

m∠R + m∠S + m∠T = 180°

⇒ m∠S+m∠T = 180° - m∠R

Since, m∠R > m∠S + m∠T

⇒ - m∠R < - (m∠S + m∠T) (by multiplying-1 on both sides)

⇒ 180°- m∠R < 180° - (m∠S + m∠T) (by adding 180° on both sides)

⇒ m∠S+m∠T < 180° - (m∠S + m∠T)

⇒ m∠S+m∠T+ m∠S+m∠T < 180° ( by adding m∠S + m∠T on both sides)

⇒ 2(m∠S+m∠T) < 180°

⇒ m∠S+m∠T < 90°

⇒ m∠R > 90° ( because m∠R+m∠S+m∠T = 180° )

Again, m∠R > m∠S + m∠T

⇒ m∠R > m∠S and m∠R > m∠T

Thus, Option first second fourth and fifth are correct.

Since, m∠S = m∠T is only possible when m∠R=90° (but it is not given)

That is why m∠S = m∠T is not correct.

And, there are not enough information to prove m∠S > m∠T

That is why m∠S > m∠T is also incorrect.

What is the vertex form of the function: f(x) = -12x - 6x^2- 13?

Answers

Answer:

f(x)=-6*(x+1)^2+-7

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because the vertex is at (-1|-7)

f(x)=-6*x^2+-12*x+-13

f(x)=-6*(x^2+2*x+13/6) ( Factor out )

f(x)=-6*(x^2+2*x+(1)^2+-1*(1)^2+13/6) ( Complete the square )

f(x)=-6*((x+1)^2+-1*(1)^2+13/6) ( Use the binomial formula )

f(x)=-6*((x+1)^2+1*7/6) ( simplify )

f(x)=-6*(x+1)^2+-7 ( expand )

this is because this is a equilateral triangle which is equal to 180° & there are no given measurements for angle T & R so if you do 180 divided by 3 you get 60. hope this helps
