You are taking a quiz that has 9 multiple-choice questions. If each question has 3 possible answers, how many different ways are there to answer the test?

Answers

Answer:

19 683

Step-by-step explanation:

Think of it as s lock..

A normal combination lock usually have 3 scrollwheels with 10 different positions in them.. (0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9)

The smallest number you can make is 000

and the biggest is 999

therefore there are a total number of 1000 possible combinations. (001, 002, 003 ... 134, 135, 136 ... 876, 877)

I think you get it.

Simply: 10 ^ 3 = 1000

In your question we have 9 "scroll wheels" with 3 "different positions" in them

So we simply do: 3 ^ 9 = 19 683

There you go, hope i could help

:

           4a2 - b2

Simplify   ————————

            2a - b  

Trying to factor as a Difference of Squares:

2.1      Factoring:  4a2 - b2  

Theory : A difference of two perfect squares,  A2 - B2  can be factored into  (A+B) • (A-B)

Proof :  (A+B) • (A-B) =

        A2 - AB + BA - B2 =

        A2 - AB + AB - B2 =

        A2 - B2

Note :  AB = BA is the commutative property of multiplication.

Note :  - AB + AB equals zero and is therefore eliminated from the expression.

Check :  4  is the square of  2  

Check :  a2  is the square of  a1  

Check :  b2  is the square of  b1  

Factorization is :       (2a + b)  •  (2a - b)  

Canceling Out :

2.2    Cancel out  (2a - b)  which appears on both sides of the fraction line.

Final result :

 2a + b

James is a botanist studying the production of beans by two types of bean plants.
He noticed that the string bean plant produced 30% more beans than the lima bean
plants. Based on James' observation, if the string bean plants produced 130 string
beans, how many lima beans did the lima bean plant produce?

Answers

Answer:

100 lima beans

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write an equation with s = string beans and l = lima beans:

s = 1.3l

We can now plug in 130 = s to get:

130 = 1.3l

We divide both sides by 1.3 and get:

100 = l

That means the lima bean plant produced 100 lima beans

Answer:

91

Step-by-step explanation:

130 * 30% =

130 * 0.3 =

39

130 - 39 = 91

this year Benny is 12 years old and his mom is 48 years old what percent of his mom's age is Benny's age ​

Answers

Answer:

25%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set up a percent proportion:

12/x = 48/100

To solve for x, we would do:

x = (12*100)/48 = 1200/48 = 25

x = 25%

In my opinion, the easiest way to do this would be to look at this and notice that 12 * 4 =48 so that means 12 is 1/4 of 48 and 1/4 = 25%.

A group of students are going on a trip and the trip costs $36.50 per student which includes $9.50 for lunch, an entrance ticket and a gift coupon. The gift coupon costs $50 for the entrance ticket. The cost of an entrance ticket is

A) $27.00
B) $25.00
C) $18.00
D) $13.50

Answers

The answer is D) $13.50

Step-by-step explanation:

So first what you're gonna do it subtract $9.50 from $36.50 which will get you to $27.00.

Then you'll have to figure out what half of $27.00 is.

That will get you to the answer of D) $13.50

You buy 4 balloons and 2 banners for $8. Your friend buys 6 balloons and 1 banner for $8.


Each balloon costs ?$

and each banner costs ?$

Answers

Answer:

Each balloon costs $1

Each banner costs $2

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, let's write down the equation from this problem.

Let "y" be the cost of the ballon, and let "x" be the cost of a banner. Then the following is true from the question...

4y + 2x = 8

6y + x = 8

Now since both of them are equal to 8 both of them are equal to each other, and so we can get the following equation...

4y + 2x = 6y + x

2x - x = 6y - 4y

x = 2y

Now if we substitute 2y instead of x in one of the previous equations we will obtain...

6y + x = 8

6y + 2y = 8

8y = 8

y = 1

From the equation x = 2y we know that...

x = 2y

x = 2(1)

x = 2

y^2 + 6y + 9 = 49 factor

Answers

(y+10)(y-4)

Explanation:
In order to solve you must set the equation to 0. Meaning you subtract 49 from 9 to get the original equation to now be y^2+6y-40.
You then set that equation (y^2+6y-40) to zero in order to factor it out.
To do this, you have to find two numbers that multiply to make -40 but add to make 6, which is where you get 10 and -4.
