Answer:

[tex]\frac{49}{60}[/tex]

We can conclude that, both of them have eaten almost the complete bag of Tootsie rolls

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Fraction of Tootsie rolls eaten by Jaxton = [tex]\frac{3}{5}[/tex]

Fraction of Tootsie rolls eaten by Drake = [tex]\frac{5}{12}[/tex]

Here, we have to use the Benchmark fractions to estimate what fraction of tootsie roll bags was eaten by Jaxton and Drake.

First of all, let us add the given two fractions to find the total amount of Tootsie rolls eaten by both of them together.

Total Tootsie rolls eaten by both of them =

[tex]\dfrac{3}{5} + \dfrac{5}{12}\\\\\text{Taking LCM of denominator i.e. 5 and 12 = 60}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{3\times 12 + 5\times 5}{60}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{49}{60}[/tex]

The most commonly used benchmark fractions are 0, [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] and 1.

Here, with the fraction we can write our benchmark fractions as:

[tex]\dfrac{0}{60}, \dfrac{30}{60}, \dfrac{60}{60}[/tex]

We can see that, [tex]\frac{49}{60}[/tex] is near to [tex]\frac{60}{60}[/tex].

Therefore, we can conclude that, both of them have eaten almost the complete bag of Tootsie rolls.

Answer:

A. Sugar was central to people’s daily lives, work, and economy.

Step-by-step explanation:

Slavery was abolished in the British Empire in 1833, thirty years before the Emancipation Proclamation in the United States. But even after they freed their slaves, the sugar plantation owners were desperate to find cheap labor to cut cane and process sugar. So the British owners looked to another part of the empire—India—and recruited thousands of men and women, who were given five-year contracts and a passage back.

so that means

My great-grandparents had come from India to Guyana—then British Guiana—in the late nineteenth century to work on the sugar plantations. Sugar was the backbone of the British Empire at that time. The demand was huge, for sugar had gone from being a luxury that only kings could afford to a necessity. Even the poorest of London shopgirls took sugar in their tea.

Answer:

-212

Step-by-step explanation:

This question seems to be incrementing by steps of -4, starting at -8.  To get the 52'nd term, we can simply start at the first term and add that -4 51 more times.

Assuming that negative eight is the first term then, we get:

-8 - 4 * 51

= -8 - 204

= -212

The 52nd term of the sequence will be -212.

A sequence of events or things is a number of events or things that come one after another in a particular order.

Given a sequence, -8, -12, -16,...

nth term of a sequence is given by

an = a + (n-1)*d

a(-212) = -8 + (52-1)*-4

a(-212) = -8-204

a(-212) = -212

Hence, The 52nd term of the sequence will be -212.

Answer:

28

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of shots made to shots total is 7:15. Now since we don't know the shots made from 60 total shots, we can set the ratio as x:60. Since 15 goes into 60 4 times, we can multiply both parts of the ratio by 4 to get 28:60.

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

1/4x + 5/2x - 2 = 4 - 1/4x

collecting like terms:

(1/4)x + (5/2)x + (1/4)x = 4 + 2

3x = 6

x = 6/3

x = 2

b)

7.9x + x + 4 = -1.1x - 16

collecting like terms:

7.9x + x + 1.1x  = - 16 - 4

10x = -20

x = -2

c)

3.2x + 5.7 = -2.5x

collecting like terms:

3.2x + 2.5x = 5.7

5.7x = 5.7

x = 1

d)

10.1x - 1.6x + 44 = -7

collecting like terms:

10.1x - 1.6x = -7 - 44

8.5x = -51

x = -6

Hence the equations in increasing order of the value of their solutions is:

10.1x - 1.6x + 44 = -7

7.9x + x + 4 = -1.1x - 16

3.2x + 5.7 = -2.5x

1/4x + 5/2x - 2 = 4 - 1/4x

AB = 4

[tex]m\angle E=30^\circ[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Similar shapes

Two figures are similar if the ratios of the lengths of their corresponding sides are equal. The corresponding angles are also congruent.

Being ABCD and EFGH similar, the ratio of the lengths of AB and EF is equal to the ratio of the lengths of AD and EH, thus:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{AB}{EF}=\frac{AD}{EH}[/tex]

Solving for AB:

[tex]\displaystyle AB=\frac{AD}{EH}\cdot EF[/tex]

Since AD=6, EH=1.5, and EF=1:

[tex]\displaystyle AB=\frac{6}{1.5}\cdot 1[/tex]

AB = 4

Since angle A is congruent to angle E:

[tex]m\angle E=m\angle A[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{m\angle E=30^\circ}[/tex]

Answer:

$13.77 per person in the family

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of the meal = $54.65

Sales tax rate = 8%

Sales tax amount = 8% of $54.65

= 8/100 × 54.65

= 0.08 × 54.65

= $4.372

Tip = 18% of $54.65

= 18/100 × 54.65

= 0.18 × 54.65

= $9.837

Total cost of the dinner = Cost of the meal + Sales tax amount + Tip

= $54.65 + $4.372 + $9.837

= $68.859

There are 5 people in the Holcombe family

What was the cost per person for the meal, including sales tax and tip?

cost per person for the meal, including sales tax and tip = Total cost of the dinner / total number of people in the family

= $68.859 / 5

= $13.7718

Approximately

$13.77 per person in the family

Answer:

No, they are not inverses.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out if this are inverses we will have to switch the x and y in one of the equations. Let's do it with the second equation:

(Remember that f(x)/g(x) and y are virtually the same)

y = -4x + 2

Switch x and y

x = -4y + 2

Now solve for y

x - 2 = -4y

[tex]-\frac{x}{4} + \frac{2}{4} = y\\-\frac{x}{4} + \frac{1}{2} = y[/tex]

Therefore, the 2 functions in the question are not inverses of each other because the actual inverse has a negative in front of the -x/4.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

slope is the diference in y over the difrevce in x

m= (y2-y1) / (x2-x1) = (5-2) / (0-1) = 3 / -1  = - (3/1)

Tip:

keep in mind that you can start with any point you want as long as you do the same order for x and y.

For example both of those are correct

m = (5-2) / (0-1) = 3 / -1  = - (3/1)

m = ( 2-5)/ (1-0) = -3/1 = -(3/1)
