Response:

$2\times 1=\frac{20}{10}$

Stepwise clarification:

The question asks how 2 ones is equal to 20 tenths.

Two ones can be shown as: $2\times 1=2$ .

Since a tenth corresponds to one part of ten, represented as $\frac{1}{10}$ , 20 tenths is illustrated by:

$20\times \frac{1}{10}$

$\frac{20}{10}=2$

Therefore, 2 ones are equivalent to 20 tenths.

The equivalence exists because tenths represent one-tenth of a whole. Having 20 tenths means multiplying 20 by 1/10, resulting in 20/10, which simplifies to 2 wholes. Conversely, expressing 2 as 20 tenths yields the same amount.

babunello [3607]

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for the best fitting line is y = 2.599x + 105.08. When x is set to 20, the predicted height becomes y = 157.06. However, the actual height recorded is 160 cm, therefore, the residual is calculated as:

160 cm − 157.06 cm = 2.94 cm

A mattress store sold 1,330 mattresses in one year. If 30% of the mattresses sold were king size mattresses, how many king size

PIT_PIT [3895]

The yearly sales total for mattresses equals 1,330.

The percentage of King size mattresses sold is 30% = 30/100 = 0.3

Now, we need to find the actual sales number using the following formula:

King size mattresses sold = Total mattresses sold in a year * Percentage of King size mattresses sold

King size mattresses sold = 1,330 * 0.3 = 399

King size mattresses sold = 399

Mario has a business selling muffins. Let x be the price of a muffin. Then, the profit P for Mario’s business is given by p(x)=-

tester [3895]

To achieve a positive profit p(x)>0, we start with:
$-100 x^{2} +350x-150 \ \textgreater \ 0$

Next, we solve for x:
$-2 x^{2} +7x-3 \ \textgreater \ 0$

The parameters are:
a = -2
b = 7
c = -3

We will apply the quadratic formula:
$x_{1} = \frac{-b+ \sqrt{ b^{2}-4ac } }{2a} \\ \\ x_{2} = \frac{-b- \sqrt{ b^{2}-4ac } }{2a} \\ \\ x_{1} = \frac{-7+ \sqrt{ 49-24 } }{-4} = \frac{-7+5 }{-4} = \frac{-2 }{-4} = \frac{1}{2} \\ \\ x_{2} = \frac{-7- \sqrt{ 49-24 } }{-4} = \frac{-7-5 }{-4} = \frac{-12 }{-4} = 3$

This yields two results—one a fraction, the other a whole number. We focus on the whole number since the muffins sold must be a complete unit. Thus we conclude:
x>3

On a coordinate plane, a dashed straight line has a positive slope and goes through (negative 3, 1) and (0, 3). Everything to th

Svet_ta [4296]

Answer:

$y>\frac{2}{3}x+3$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Calculate the slope of the dashed line

The slope between two points is computed with the formula:

$m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

We consider

(-3,1) and (0,3)

and substitute into it:

$m=\frac{3-1}{0+3}$

$m=\frac{2}{3}$

Step 2

Determine the equation of the dashed line in slope-intercept form:

$y=mx+b$

The equation we established is:

$m=\frac{2}{3}$

$b=3$ ---> associated problem

Substituting yields:

$y=\frac{2}{3}x+3$

Step 3

Establish the inequality corresponding to the graph

Given that it is represented by a dashed line, the area to the left of this line is shaded.

Thus,

$y>\frac{2}{3}x+3$

Refer to the attached diagram for enhanced understanding of the problem.

Julie needs to cut 4 pieces of yarn, each with the same length, and a piece of yarn 7.75 inches long. Let x represent the length

tester [3895]

Answer:

y=4x+7.75; continuous

Step-by-step explanation:

Let’s first establish the equation. Julie requires one segment of yarn measuring 7.75 inches: that's already known.

y = 7.75

Now, for the four pieces of yarn, each will be of equal length x. If she wants them to measure 1 inch, she'd need 4 inches of yarn. Therefore, the calculation would be:

y = 7.75 + 4x

Now, is this graph discrete or continuous? Continuous indicates there's a smooth line without gaps, while discrete has interruptions or spaces. In this scenario, x is continuous, as Julie can cut the yarn to any size for the four pieces. She is not limited to whole numbers; each piece could be, for instance, 2.5 inches or 3.1415 inches.
