Angela scored 15 points less than twice the lowest score on a math test. If her score was95, what was the lowest score on the test?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

55

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the lowest score on the math test, we can set up an equation based on the information given.  

Let's denote the lowest score as "x".  

According to the information given, Angela scored 15 points less than twice the lowest score.  

Twice the lowest score is 2x, and Angela's score is 15 points less than that, so her score can be represented as 2x - 15.  

Given that Angela's score is 95, we can set up the equation:  2x - 15 = 95  

To solve for x, we can add 15 to both sides of the equation:  2x - 15 + 15 = 95 + 15  

Simplifying, we have:  2x = 110  

Finally, we can divide both sides of the equation by 2 to isolate x:  2x/2 = 110/2  

Simplifying further, we get:  x = 55  

Therefore, the lowest score on the math test was 55.

The equation of line c is y=-4/3-4 Line d includes the point (4,-4) and is perpendicular to line c . what is the equation of line d?

Answers

Assuming that you mean that the equation of line c is

y=-(4)/(3)x-4

We can deduce that the slope of line c is

m_c=-(4)/(3)

since the slope is the coefficient multiplying x in the equation of a line. Since we want line d to be perpendicular to line c, their slope must be in the following relationship:

m_cm_d=-1 \iff m_d=-(1)/(m_c)=-(1)/(-(4)/(3))=(3)/(4)

So, line d has slope 3/4 and passes through point (4,-4). Use the equation

y-y_0=m_d(x-x_0)

to find the equation of line d, where

x_0=4,\quad y_0=-4,\quad m_d=(3)/(4)

A shape is made of 12 right triangles of equal size. Each right triangle has a base of 4 cm and a height of 5 cm. What is the total area, in square centimeters, of the shape?

Answers

Answer:

The total area of the shape is 120\ cm^(2)

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the area of one right triangle

The area of a triangle is equal to

A=(1)/(2)(b)(h)

we have

b=4\ cm

h=5\ cm

substitute

A=(1)/(2)(4)(5)=10\ cm^(2)

step 2

To find the total area of the shape multiply the area of one triangle by 12

so

A=12(10)=120\ cm^(2)

Answer:

120 cm

What is the equation of the graph that represents the parent function f(x^4) stretched vertically by a factor of 2, and then shifted up 3 spaces.A) g(x)= 2x^4+3

B) g(x)= 2(x^4+3)

C) g(x)= 2(x+3)^4

D) g(x)= 2x^4-3

Answers

The required transformed graph of parent graph f(x^4) is 2x^4+3

The correct option is (A)

Transformation on Graph:

If we have a original graph of the function f (x) then

Vertical transformation by a unit = a f(x)

Horizontal compression by a unit = f(ax)

Vertical translation up a units = f(x) + a

How to find transformed graph?

Here we have given original function is f(x^4)

If the graph stretched vertically by 2 unit then transformed graph is

=2 f(x^4)

Also we have given the graph is shifted up 3 units

Therefore the graph will be = 2f(x^4)+3

The correct option is (A)

This is the conclusion to the answer.

a snail moves at a speed of 2.394 inches per minute . If the snail keeps moving at this rate, about how many inches will it travel in 7.489

Answers

2.394 inches per minute x 7.489 minutes = 17.928666 inches.

So, about 18 inches.
(2.394in)/(1min) *  (7.489min)/(1) = 17.928666in

Or 17.93in with significant digits.


To break it down, you can set up your information as a fraction (which I did for the first fraction.) Then you want your units to cancel out, so I put the 7.489 minutes on the top of the next fraction and multiplied them. The min canceled out and left me with in, so I know I had the correct answer.
