Response:

14

Detailed Explanation:

Caitlin purchases a quantity of apples that is double that of the oranges.

2a=o

The price of apples is 0.25 and the price of oranges is 0.30, and she has a total of 5 to spend.

5-2a(0.30)-0.25a=0

5=2a(0.30)-0.25a\\5=0.6a-0.25a\\5=0.35a\\a=14

What is the slope-intercept equation for the line below? (0,1) (4,3)
lawyer [12517]
The slope-intercept form is defined as: m for slope and b for y-intercept, which corresponds to the point (0, b). For the points (4, 3) and (0, 1), we find b = 1. Now let's calculate the slope.

If (a^3+27)=(a+3)(a^2+ma+9) then m equals
Inessa [12570]

Answer:

m = - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

a³ + 27 can be recognized as a sum of cubes, which factors generally as

a³ + b³ = (a + b)(a² - ab + b²). Therefore:

a³ + 27

= a³ + 3³

= (a + 3)(a² - 3a + 9).

By comparing a² - 3a + 9 to a² + ma + 9, we find that

m = - 3.

Which of the following functions is graphed below?
PIT_PIT [12445]

Answer:

D.

Step-by-step explanation:

This function is piece-wise, meaning you will have two equations along with distinct domains. The equation x squared plus 3 illustrates a parabolic curve, while x plus 4 is depicted as a linear function. There is a specific reason why the point on the parabola is open at x equals 4; this signifies that the value does not satisfy the equation. Therefore, x cannot equal 4 for the parabola, so its domain is x less than 4. The closed point on the linear function indicates that when x is 4, it is part of the solution for that equation and graph. Consequently, the domain for the linear function is x greater than or equal to 4. Hope this clarifies things!
