Please help me! Thanks what is the ratio of a to b?

1/2 = a+b/a-b

A. -3

B. -1/2

C. -1/3

D. 3

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: (Cross Multiply)2a+2b=a-b
a=-3b
if b=1; a=-3
correct answer is -3..
Good Luck..
Answer 2
Answer: 1=a+b. 2=a-b a= 2+b 1=2+b+b. a=2-1/2=3/2 -1=2b b=-1/2 a/b= (3/2)/(-1/2) = (3/2)(-2/1) =-3

Answers

You are given the first point (2, 3) and a line x = 4. If you go ahead and graph these, it makes it a little more clear when they say that point p is symmetric with point Q with respect to the line x = 4.

Line x = 4 is the line of symmetry, so point Q is reflected across it. Point p has an x value of 2 (2 away from the line of symmetry, so point Q's x value has to be 2 away on the other side... 6. The y value is unchanged so your point is

The design of a digital box camera maximizes the volume while keeping the sum of the dimensions at 6 inches. If the length must be 1.5 time the height, what should each dimension be?

Answers

v=1.5l*l*w
w=6-l-1.5l
v=1.5l*l*(6-l-1.5l)
which simplifies to 
v=9l^2-3.75l^3
and so we take the derivative of that function in terms of l
(d)/(dx)v=18l-11.25l^2
then we set that to 0
-11.25l^2+18l=0
using the quadratic formula
(-b+or- √(b^2-4ac))/(2a)
(-18+or- √(18^2-4*11.25*0))/(2*-11.25)
simplifying..
(-18+or- √(324))/(-22.5)
(-18+√(324))/(-22.5)=0
(-18-√(324))/(-22.5)=1.6

at this point i noticed an error, i used l instead of h... but thats ok

pluggin 0 and 1.6 for h, lets check answers
1.6: h=1.6 l=2.4 w=2
0: h=0 l=0 w=6

so the answer is h=1.6 l=2.4 w=2, which gives the greatest volume of 7.68

Kenneth has entered a check payment of $350.25 in his checkbook. If the old balance was $545.95, what is his latest balance? A.)$896.25
B.)$195.70
C.)$195

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is B.

Step-by-step explanation:

The old balance of kenneth's checkbook was $545.95.

Kenneth has entered a check payment of $350.25 in his checkbook.

It means the balance of checkbook is reduced by $350.25.

The latest balance of check book is

\$545.95-\$350.25=\$195.70

Therefore the latest balance of kenneth's check book is $195.70. Option B is correct.

what is the new volume of a rectangular prism that is originally 12 cubic meters and is them resized using scale factor of 4 on each side length?

Answers

lets say each side length of the prism is 1, 3, and 4,
1x3x4=12 cubic meters
you then times each by four
1x4=4
3x4=12
4x4=16
you then multiply them together
4x12x16
and the answer would be what it equals
4x12x16=768 cubic meters
so the new prism's volume would be 768 cubic meters

Answer:

1. Flip a fair coin four times, with heads representing teenagers who prefer watching a movie at a theater and tails representing those who do not.

2. Pick a card from a deck of standard playing cards four times, with red suits representing those who prefer watching a movie at a theater and black suits representing those who do not.

4. Roll a six-sided die four times, with even numbers representing those who prefer watching a movie at a theater and odd numbers representing those who do not.

Step-by-step explanation:

Basically you need to do something 4 times, with each time having a 50/50 chance.

For 1, it flips the coin 4 times and a coin toss is 50/50

For 2, it pics 4 cards, and the deck of cards has a 50-50 chance of either red or black

For 3, it spins it only 3 times, so is wrong

For 4, it rolls the die 4 times, and even and odd is 50-50

For 5, 0-5 consist of 6 number, while 6-9 is only 4 numbers thus is not 50-50 so is wrong
