Skyler solved an equation incorrectly, as shown below:

Step 1: 12 + x = 36
Step 2: x = 36 + 12
Step 3: x = 24

Which statement best explains why Step 2 is incorrect in Skyler's solution?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step 2 is incorrect.

Step-by-step explanation:

It's incorrect because I'm pretty you need to do inverse operation. To get 24 you must subtract, not add.

Step-by-step explanation:

2.25+3 1/2+6=11.75

Then:

20-11.75=8.25

The variable y is directly proportional to the variable x. If y = 32 when x = 20, what is the value of x when y = 40?

Answers

Answer

25

Step-by-step explanation:

20/32 = 0.625

40 x 0.625 = 25

You can check by doing 25/40 and see if you get the same proportion (x/y)

25 is the correct answer 32/20 is 1.6 and 40/25 is also 1.6

The basketball team scored a total
of 80 points, all off of 2-point
baskets and 3-point baskets (no
they didn't make any free throws). If
six 3-point baskets were made, find
the number of 2-point baskets
made.

Answers

Answer:

31 2-point baskets were made

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find how many of the 80 points were made with 2-point baskets by subtracting all the points gained through 3-point baskets. Since there are six 3-point baskets:

# of points through 2-point baskets = 80 - 6(3) = 80 - 18 = 62

To find the number of 2-point baskets that were made, divide the points by the worth of the basket:

# of 2-point baskets made = 62/2 = 31

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  31

Step-by-step explanation:

6×3 = 18 of the 80 points were from 3-point baskets, so the remaining 62 points were 2-point baskets.

  62 = 2b

  62/2 = b = 31

31 2-point baskets were made.

Answers

Answer:

[tex] \cos (u + v) = -\dfrac{56}{65} [/tex]

Good job!

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex] \cos (u + v) = \cos u \cos v - \sin u \sin v [/tex]

[tex] \sin u = -\dfrac{3}{5} [/tex]; u is in QIII.

That makes [tex] \cos u = -\dfrac{4}{5} [/tex]

[tex] \sin v = -\dfrac{12}{13} [/tex]; v is in QIV.

That makes [tex] \cos v = \dfrac{5}{13} [/tex]

[tex] \cos (u + v) = (-\dfrac{4}{5})(\dfrac{5}{13}) - (-\dfrac{3}{5})(-\dfrac{12}{13}) [/tex]

[tex] \cos (u + v) = -\dfrac{20}{65} - \dfrac{36}{65} [/tex]

In each case below, we describe a study to determine whether exercise helps increase certain mood enhancing chemicals in the brain. Indicate whether each describes an experiment or an observational study.
a). Using a random sample of 100 people, we randomly assign half of them to participate in a regular exercise program for a six-week period while the other half makes no changes. At the end of the time period, we measure the brain chemicals.
b). We contact a random sample of 100 people and record how much each person exercises and also measure the chemicals in the brain for each person.

Answers

Answer:

A)Experimental Study

B)Observational Study

Step-by-step explanation:

Observational Study : A study where researchers simply collect data based on what is seen and heard and infer based on the data collected.

Experimental Study: A study which involve the random assignment of -participants into different groups in order to determine the causal effect of a certain condition on a certain outcome .

A) In this case we are randomly classifying the subjects into two groups, where one group participate in a regular exercise program for a six week period, while the other half makes no changes. In this Part we are not observing the data . we are doing experiment over here and comparing those two different groups.

So, By definition It is an experimental study

B) In this case we are recording the data of each person and decision will be based on data

So, By definition It is an observational study

1. A pitched roof is built with a 1:3 ratio of rise to span. If the rise of the roof is 10 meters, what is the span

Answers

Answer:

The answer is B) the span of the roof is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The span is 30 meters if the pitched roof is built with a 1:3 ratio of rise to span.

What is the ratio?

It is described as the comparison of two quantities to determine how many times one obtains the other. The proportion can be expressed as a fraction or as a sign: between two integers.

We have:

A pitched roof is built with a 1:3 ratio of rise to span

rise/span = 1/3

rise = 10 meters

10/span = 1/3

span = 3×10 = 30 meters

Thus, the span is 30 meters if the pitched roof is built with a 1:3 ratio of rise to span.
