Read the excerpt from "Egyptian Tombs: A Grave Matter.”

From the twenty-fifth century BCE, pharaohs’ tombs were located inside grand pyramids. The pyramids served as giant grave markers; however, they also served as treasure markers for grave robbers. These wicked people would strip the tombs bare of all valuables. Then they would sell the stolen items for a large amount of money. Stealing from the dead was bad enough, but for the ancient Egyptians, the act also threatened the pharaoh’s afterlife.

Based on the details in the excerpt, what conclusion can be drawn about the pharaohs of ancient Egypt?

They went to great lengths to ensure that their tombs were prepared for the afterlife by placing valuables inside.
They liked the pyramid shape, so they used it as a tomb.
They thought that giant grave markers would protect them against grave robbers.
They placed more emphasis on their current lives than on their afterlives.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

I chose this answer because in the passage it states that the pyramids served as giant grave markers, so in conclusion I think that the pharohs thought that people would have decency and leave them alone but instead the robbers would rob them. And they figured that the robbers would be afraid because of gods watching over them.

What is the sum of the roots of the quadratic $4x^2 - 4x - 4$?

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  1

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of roots of quadratic ax^2 +bx +c = 0 is -b/a. Here, that means the sum of roots is ...

  -(-4)/4 = 1

The sum of the roots is 1.

Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

By Vieta's formulas, the sum of the roots of $ax^2 + bx + c$ is given by $\dfrac{-b}{a}$. For this quadratic, that value is

\[ \frac{-b}{a} = \frac{-(-4)}{4} = 1.\]

Since the sum of the roots is $1$, the average of the roots is $\boxed{\dfrac 1 2}$.

Alternately, we could factor $4$ out of every term of this quadratic, giving $4(x^2 - x - 1)$. Since $4 \cdot 0 = 0$, any number that is a root of $x^2 - x - 1$ will also be a root of $4(x^2 - x - 1)$. Thus, the problem can change to finding the sum of the roots of $x^2 - x - 1$.

Since the coefficient of the linear term is $-1$ and this is the opposite of the sum of the roots, we find that the sum of the roots is equal to $1$, and the average is $\boxed{\dfrac 1 2}$.

At most, Alana can spend $40 on carnival tickets. Ride tickets cost $4 each, and food tickets cost $2 each. Alana buys at least 16 tickets. The system of inequalities represents the number of ride tickets, r, and the number of food tickets, f, she buys.

Answers

Answer:

4 is the maximum number of ride tickets she can buy

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, r represents the number of ride tickets and f represents number of food tickets.

The system of inequalities is given as:

r+f\geq 16                         ....[1]

4r+2f\leq 40                    .....[2]

To solve Mathematically:

Multiply equation [1] by -2 we have;

-2r-2f \leq -32               .....[3]

Add equation [2] and [3] we have;

2r \leq 8

Divide both sides by 2 we have;

r \leq 4

Since r must be less than or equal to 4.

You can also see the graph of the given system of inequalities as shown below.

The intersection point is, (4, 12)

Therefore, the maximum number of ride tickets she can buy is, 4

The smaller triangle was dilated to form the larger triangle. What is the value of x? A smaller triangle has side lengths of 5, 13, 12. A larger triangle has side lengths of x, blank, 18. 6.9 7.5 10 11

Answers

Answer:

x = 7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Dilation is a transformation in which the size of a given figure is either increased or decreased by a scale factor.

Given that the length of sides of the smaller triangle are; 5, 13, 12.

Given also that the length of the dilated triangle are; x, blank, 18.

Comparing the length of the last sides of the two triangles, we have;

(scale factor x 12) + 12

                        = ([tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x 12) + 12

                        = 6 + 12

                        = 18

Thus the scale factor for the dilation is [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]. So that:

x = ([tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x 5) + 5

   = 2.5 + 5

   = 7.5

x = 7.5

And also,

blank = ([tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x 13) + 13

          = 6.5 + 13

blank  = 19.5

Therefore, the length of the sides of dilated triangle are: 7.5, 19.5, 18

7.5

A comer store sells two kinds of baked goods: cakes and pies. A cake costs $8 and a pie costs $11. In one
day, the store sold 11 baked goods for a total of $112. How many cakes did they sell?
a. 3 cakes
c. 2 cakes
b 11 cakes
d. 8 cakes

Answers

Answer:

8  number of cakes were sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Out of 12 baked goods sold , let the number of cakes sold be x in number and pies sold were 12 − x in number. Total sell was $ 144 , 1 cake costs $ 14 and 1 pie costs $ 8 ∴ 14 ⋅ x + ( 12 − x ) ⋅ 8 = 144 or 14 x − 8 x = 144 − 96 or 6 x = 48 ∴ x = 8 Therefore, 8 cakes were sold [Ans]

Answer:

3 cakes

Step-by-step explanation:

3x8=24

112-24=88

88/11=8

3cakes +8 pies= 11 baked goods

b. Write an equation to represent the cost for a party at Napoli’s Pizza.

c. What is the solution to the system of equations? (label your answers)

Answers

Answer:

x = 2 pizzas

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = number of pizza ordered

Stella’s Pizza charges $16.00 room rental fee and an additional $8.00 for each pizza ordered.

cost for a party at Stella’s Pizza = 16 + 8x

Napoli’s Pizza charges $24 for the room rental fee and an additional $6.00 for each pizza ordered.

cost for a party at Napoli’s Pizza = 24 + 6x

Equate the cost for a party at Stella’s Pizza and cost for a party at Napoli’s Pizza

16 + 8x = 24 + 6x

8x - 6x = 24 - 16

2x = 8

x = 8/4

= 2

x = 2

Layala and Zahra have 2700 marbles in the ratio of 2:7. How many marbles Zahra must have gave away so that they both would have the same number of marbles?

Answers

Answer:

1500

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Total number of marbles held by Layala and Zahra = 2700

Ratio = 2 : 7

Layala's share of marbles : (2 / (2+7)) * 2700

= 2/9 * 2700

= 600

Zahra's share of marble : (7 / (2+ 7)) * 2700

= 7 / 9 * 2700

= 2100

Hence, Zahra must have given away (2100 - x) = 600

2100 - 600

= 1500 marbles, so that both Zahra and Layala have the same number of marbles

The angle measures of a triangle are shown:



Angle A: (5x – 5) degrees

Angle B: (3x + 3) degrees

Angle C: (5x) degrees



The sum of the measures of the three angles is equal to 180°. What is the measure of Angle B?

Answers

Answer:

∠ B = 45°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the 3 angles in a triangle = 180°

Sum the 3 given angles and equate to 180, that is

5x - 5 + 3x + 3 + 5x = 180, simplify

13x - 2 = 180 ( add 2 to both sides )

13x = 182 ( divide both sides by 13 )

x = 14

Thus

∠ B = 3x + 3 = 3(14) + 3 = 42 + 3 = 45°
