Read the excerpt from Silent Spring.

On the farms the hens brooded, but no chicks hatched. The farmers complained that they were unable to raise any pigs—the litters were small and the young survived only a few days. The apple trees were coming into bloom but no bees droned among the blossoms, so there was no pollination and there would be no fruit.

The repetition of the word “no” in this excerpt helps create a tone of

motivation.
doom.
acceptance.
violence.

Please try to give a good explanation so I can learn how it was done! Thank you

Answers

Answer:

Explained below.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Bisecting splits an angle into two equal parts. Angle 2 and 3 are now equal.

2. And since it is a right angle, both angles are 45 degrees.

3. All triangle angles will ALWAYS add up to 180.

4. Angle 4 = 180 - 45 (Angle 3) -83.

Angle 4 = 52.

5. Do same thing for Angle 1.

6. Angle 1 = 180 - 45 (Angle 2) - 48

Angle 1 = 87.

Final answers.

1. 87 degrees

2. 45 degrees.

3. 45 degrees.

4. 52 degrees.

The original cost of a sofa was $600. If it was discounted 40% and sales tax is 8%, what is the final cost of the sofa

Answers

Answer:

$312

Step-by-step explanation:

10% of $600 is $60

So $60*4=$240

$600-$240=$360

1%=$6

So $6*8=$48

$360-$48=$312

A peacock walks 6 feet in 15 seconds how many feet can a peacock walk in 98 seconds?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Distance = 39.2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Distance = 6ft;\\ Time = 15seconds[/tex]

Required

Determine the distance covered in 98 seconds

To solve this, the following assumption must be made:

The peacock walks at a constant speed

So, first we calculate the speed

[tex]Speed = \frac{Distance}{Time}[/tex]

Substitute 6 for Distance and 15 for Time

[tex]Speed = \frac{6}{15}[/tex]

[tex]Speed = 0.40[/tex]

Next, is to calculate the required distance

[tex]Speed = \frac{Distance}{Time}[/tex]

In this case:

[tex]Speed = 0.40[/tex] because it is constant and

[tex]Time = 98[/tex]

The expression becomes:

[tex]0.40 = \frac{Distance}{98}[/tex]

Make Distance the subject:

[tex]Distance = 0.40 * 98[/tex]

[tex]Distance = 39.2[/tex]

The peacock will walk 39.2 feet in 98 seconds

Write an equation of the line that passes through the given point and is (a) parallel and (b) perpendicular to the given line.
a. y=
b. y=

Answers

Answer:

(a). y = - 4x + 19 ; (b). y = [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] x + 2  

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope "m" of given line is

m = - 4

Slope of parallel line is ( - 4) and perpendicular line is [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

P(4, 3)

y - [tex]y_{P}[/tex] = m( x - [tex]x_{P}[/tex] )

(a). y - 3 = - 4 (x - 4)

y = - 4x + 19

(b). y - 3 = [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] ( x - 4 )

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

Answers

Given:

[tex]f^{-1}(f(x))=f(f^{-1}(x))=?[/tex]

To find:

The missing value.

Solution:

We have,

[tex]f^{-1}(f(x))=f(f^{-1}(x))=?[/tex]       ...(i)

We know that, if [tex]f(x)[/tex] is a function and [tex]f^{-1}(x)[/tex] is its inverse function, then

[tex]f^{-1}(f(x))=f(f^{-1}(x))=x[/tex]          ...(ii)

From (i) and (ii), we get

Missing value = [tex]x[/tex]

Therefore, the missing value is [tex]x[/tex], i.e., [tex]f^{-1}(f(x))=f(f^{-1}(x))=x[/tex].

A. y-7= -2(x+ 3)
B. y+7=--3)
C.y-7- -x+3)
D. y+7 = 2(x- 3)

Answers

Given:

Equation of line is [tex]y-25=2(x-10)[/tex].

A line is perpendicular to the given line and passes through (-3,7).

To find:

The point slope form of the perpendicular line.

Solution:

Point slope form of a line is

[tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex]          ...(i)

where, [tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex] is the point from which the line is passing through and m is slope.

We have,

[tex]y-25=2(x-10)[/tex]       ...(ii)

From (i) and (ii), we get

[tex]m_1=2[/tex]

Product of slopes of two perpendicular lines is -1.

[tex]m_1\times m_2=-1[/tex]

[tex]2\times m_2=-1[/tex]

[tex]m_2=-\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex]

So, slope of perpendicular line is [tex]-\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex].

Point slope form of the perpendicular line is

[tex]y-(7)=-\dfrac{1}{2}(x-(-3))[/tex]

[tex]y-7=-\dfrac{1}{2}(x+3)[/tex]

Therefore, the correct option is C.

Draw dot at (1, 3)

Connect the dots with a straight line

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b). In this form, m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (where the line crosses through the y-axis).

The slope is 2, also written as [tex]\frac{2}{1}[/tex]. This means that the line goes up 2 units for each 1 unit to the right.

What’s the zero of the function on the graph PLEASE

Answers

Answer:

B) x = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

The zero of a graph is the inputted value in which the output is 0. Therefore, we must find the x-value that makes the y-value be 0. In the graph, we see that y = 0 at (-5, 0). The x-value of the coordinate (-5, 0) is -5. Therefore, the zero of the function in the graph is x = -5.

D cost 3 pounds of fudge at best fudge shop is less than the cost of a pound of fudge at sweet treats ​

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct statement of the given ones are - the unit rate of best fudge is less than unit rate of candy cane.

What is the general equation of a straight line?

The general equation of a straight line is -

y = mx + c

Where -

[m] is the slope of the line.

[c] is the y - intercept.

Given is a table that shows the cost for fudge at candy lane. The graph represents the cost for similar fudge that best fudge shop sell.

The slope of straight line represented by the table -

m[1] = (16 - 8)/(2 - 1)

m[1] = 8

The slope of the line plotted on graph -

m[2] = (9 - 6)/(3 - 2)

m[2] = 3

The slope is the measure of unit rate. Therefore, the unit rate of best fudge is less than unit rate of candy cane.

The cost 3 pounds of fudge at best fudge shop = 3 x 3 = $9

The cost 1 pound of fudge at candy lane = $8

Hence, cost 3 pounds of fudge at best fudge shop is greater than the cost of a pound of fudge at sweet treats.

Therefore, the correct statement of the given ones are - the unit rate of best fudge is less than unit rate of candy cane.

The equation below shows the relationship between the temperature in degrees Celsius, C, and degrees Fahrenheit, F:

C = 5 over 9(F − 32)

The equation below shows the relationship between the temperature in degrees Celsius, C, and degrees Fahrenheit, F:

C = 5 over 9(F − 32)
Which of the following formulas correctly solves for F?

F = 9 over 5C + 32
F = 9 over 5C − 32
F = 9C + 32 over 5
F = 9C − 32 over 5

Answers

Answer:

F = 9 over 5C + 32

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's consider the following equation that shows the relationship between the temperature in degrees Celsius, C, and degrees Fahrenheit, F.

C = 5 over 9(F − 32)

C = 5/9 (F − 32)

To solve for F, first, we will multiply both sides by 9/5.

C × 9/5 = 5/9 (F − 32) × 9/5

9/5 C = F − 32

Now, we add 32 to both sides.

9/5 C + 32 = F − 32 + 32

9/5 C + 32 = F

F = 9 over 5C + 32

Answer:

F = 9 over 5C + 32

In a class of 25 students, 9 have a cat and 8 have a dog. There are 2 students who have a cat and a dog. What is the probability that a student has a cat given that they do not have a dog?

Answers

Answer:

20 + 14 = 34, there there are only 29 students, so 34 - 29 or 5 have both a dog and a cat

 

15 have only a dog

5 have a dog and a cat

9 have only a cat

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability that a student has a cat given that they do not have a dog  is 3/5

What is probability ?

Probability denotes the possibility of the outcome of any random event. The meaning of this term is to check the extent to which any event is likely to happen.

According to the question,

The number of student who do not have a dog is

25 - ( 8 + 2 ) = 15

9 have a cat { do not have a dog is a prerequisite }

So the probability that a student has a cat given that they do not have a dog = 9/15

       = 3/5
