What is 3/4 ÷ 1/2 ?
Susan's grandpa was fibbing again: "your grandma and I, together, we are over 150
years old!" If her grandpa is 71, and her grandma is 68, what's the real sum of their ages?
Easy as pie.
Just add em.
Making it.
71
+68
------
139
Meaning both of em are 139 years.This also means they are not over 150.
A researcher is exploring the notion that there is an economy of scale in raising children. While having one child might add to a family's financial stress, the second or third one might not be as "expensive" since they would already be sharing one roof, could share clothing, etc. The researcher has access to a large community of parents where 15% have one child under 18 in their home, 65% of parents have two children, and 20% of parents have three or more children. Rounded to the nearest whole number, the probability that any given family who is selected has two or more children at home is ________ %?
Answer:
The probability that any given family who is selected has two or more children at home is 85%.
Step-by-step explanation:
The information provided is as follows:
Number of Children Probability
1 0.15
2 0.65
> 3 0.20
Compute the probability that any given family who is selected has two or more children at home as follows:
P (At least 2 Children) = P (2 children) + P (More than 3 children)
= 0.65 + 0.20
= 0.85
Thus, the probability that any given family who is selected has two or more children at home is 85%.

-10x-45
Step-by-step explanation:
When you reverse the digits in a certain two-digit number you decrease its value by 45. What is the number if the sum of its digits is 9?
Answer:
72
Step-by-step explanation:
x+y=9 possible numbers
1 and 8
2 and 7
3 and 6
4 and 5
9 and 0
so
81-18=63
72-27=45 so this is the right number
63-36=27
54-45=9
90-9=81

A fast-food restaurant has a cost of production C(x)=12x+114 and a revenue function R(x)=6x. When does the company start to turn a profit?
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
C(x)=12x+114
R(x)=6x.
The company will start to run on profit just when revenue equals the production cost, that is
C(x)=R(x)
equating the two expressions we have
12x+114=6x
solving for x we have
12x-6x+114=0
6x+114=0
6x=-114
x=-114/6
x=-19
Hence the company will start to run on proft when they start to produce above 19 items
Profit is the difference between the revenue and cost functions
A production greater than 19 will turn a profit
From the question, we have:
[tex]\mathbf{R(x) = 6x}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{C(x) = 12x + 114}[/tex]
So, the profit function is:
[tex]\mathbf{P(x) = R(x) - C(x)}[/tex]
Substitute known values
[tex]\mathbf{P(x) = 6x - 12x - 114}\\[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{P(x) = - 6x - 114}[/tex]
Equate to 0
[tex]\mathbf{- 6x - 114 = 0}[/tex]
Collect like terms
[tex]\mathbf{- 6x= 114}[/tex]
Divide both sides by -6
[tex]\mathbf{x= -19}[/tex]
The above equation means that: A production greater than 19 will turn a profit

NEED HELP ASAP Ann, Ben, and Cindy were eating strawberries. The ratio of the numbers of berries they ate is 5:5:7. If Cindy ate 30 strawberries less than Ann and Ben together, what is the total number of strawberries the three of them ate?
Answer:
170Step-by-step explanation:
given:
Ann, Ben, and Cindy were eating strawberries.
The ratio of the numbers of berries they ate is 5:5:7.
If Cindy ate 30 strawberries less than Ann and Ben together,
find:
what is the total number of strawberries the three of them ate?
solution:
add the ratios 5 + 5 + 7 = 17
since Cindy ate 30, less than Ann and Ben together so, the equation is
7x = 5x + 5x - 30
7x - 10x = -30
x = 30/3
x = 10
ann 5 x 10 = 50
ben 5 x 10 = 50
cindy 7 x 10 = 70
total = 170
==============================================
Explanation:
A = number Ann ate
B = number Ben ate
C = number Cindy ate
Let x be some positive whole number
Since A,B,C is in the ratio 5:5:7, this means
A = 5x
B = 5x
C = 7x
Note how A:B:C = 5x:5x:7x = 5:5:7. We divide all parts by x to simplify the ratio.
-------------------
Cindy ate 30 strawberries less than Ann and Ben, so
C = A+B-30
C = 5x+5x-30
C = 10x-30
Earlier in the last section we had C = 7x, and now we found C = 10x-30
Since we're talking about the same C value, we can equate and solve
C = 7x
10x-30 = 7x ... replace C with 10x-30
10x-7x = 30
3x = 30
x = 30/3
x = 10
------------------
With this x value, we now know that...
A = 5x = 5*10 = 50
B = 5x = 5*10 = 50
C = 7x = 7*10 = 70
Cindy's count (70) is 30 less than Ann and Ben's combined count (50+50 = 100), so that helps confirm the answer.
Further confirmation comes from 50:50:70 reducing to 5:5:7 when you divide all parts by the GCF 10.
--------------------
The last step is to add the values of A, B and C.
A+B+C = 50+50+70
A+B+C = 100+70
A+B+C = 170
---------------------
Side note: since A+B+C = 5x+5x+7x = 17x, this means that the final answer is a multiple of 17.

I just need some one to explain how to do it ,
Answer:
f(x) = (x^2-16) / (x+3)
f(x) has no horizontal asymptote.
Vertical assymptote is x = -3
Dividing the numerator by the denominator gives x - 3 remainder -7. Therefore, the oblique assymptote is x - 3.
the vertical asymptotes of the function f(x) = (5x + 1) / (x^2 + x - 6) = (5x + 1)/(x - 2)(x + 3) is x = 2 and x = -3.
the zeros of the function f(x) = (3x^2 - 3x - 6 ) / (3x - 6) = (3x^2 + 3x - 6x - 6) / (3x - 6) = (3x(x + 1) - 6(x + 1)) / (3x - 6) = (3x - 6)(x + 1)/(3x - 6) = x + 1 is x = -1
the function f(x) = (x^2 + x - 12) / (x - 3) = (x - 3)(x + 4) / (x - 3) is --> disc = 3, x-int = (-4, 0), y-int = 4? basic shape = straight line

Arnold has $500 as his pocket money, he buys a bike for $200, and he payed 10% tax and payed 20$ extra. How much money did he have balance?
Answer:
$250
Step-by-step explanation:
Total money he has - $500
He buy a bike for - $200
500 - 200 = 300
Balance - $300
10% tax
10 x 300/100 = 30
300 - 30 = 270
He payed $`20 extra
170 - 20 = 250
Balance = $250
He had $250 balance in his pocket money

Answer:
The answer is "non-real solution: "i-3 and -i-3" and real solution is -2".
Step-by-step explanation:
In the given equation there is some mistype error so, its correct equation can be defined as follows:
Given value:
[tex]\bold{ f(x) = x^3+ 8x^2 +22x +20}[/tex]
use hit and trial method we put x value are -2:
[tex]f(-2) = (-2)^3+ 8(-2)^2 +22(-2) +20\\\\[/tex]
[tex]= -8 + 8 \times 4 +22 \times -2 +20\\\\= -8 + 32 -44 +20\\\\= -52 + 52\\\\=0[/tex]
So, the real solution to the equation is "-2".
In the above solution, we calculate the f(x) =-2 is its real solution. so, the calculation for non-real solution:
divide the value [tex]x^3+8x^2+ 22x +20[/tex] by ([tex]x+2[/tex]):

Step-by-step explanation:
15+3x = 6x-10
3x = 25
Answer:
40
Step-by-step explanation:
15 + 3x = 6x - 10
15 + 10 = 6x - 3x
25 = 3x
25/3 = x
To check
15 + 3(25/3) = 6(25/3) - 10
15 + 25 = 50 - 10
40 = 40
7 – 0.2n = -0.8n + 10
What value of n makes this equation true?
Please helpp
The answer to the equation is [tex]n=5[/tex]
First, you must add 0.8n on both sides.
[tex]0.6n+7=10[/tex]
Then, subtract 7 from both sides.
[tex]0.6n=3[/tex]
Finally, divide both sides by 0.6

Step-by-step explanation:
Write the slope-intercept form of the equation of the line described by (−1, −1), parallel to y = −2x − 4
Answer:
y = -2x - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope intercept form of line is
y = mx + c
where
m is the slope and c is the y intercept
________________________________________
Given that line
y = −2x − 4
comparing it with y = mx + c
m = -2 and c = -4
Thus, slope of this line is -2
we also know that when two lines are parallel then their slopes are same
thus, slope of required line will be m = -2
___________________________________________
now let the equation of line passing through (-1,-1) be
y = mx + c
we have found m to be -2
using this in above equation we have
y = -2x + c
since (-1,-1) passes through the above line using x = -1 and y = -1
we have
-1 = -2*-1 + c
-1 = 2 + c
c = -1 - 2 = -3
using c = -3 in y = -2x + c
we have
equation of line as
y = -2x - 3 in slope intercept form.
