4.A counterexample can be used to show that a conjecture is false. Below are three
conjectures students made after visiting a zoo. Write a counterexample that shows that
conjecture is false.
a. There are always more elephants in a zoo than giraffes.
b. The oldest leatherback sea turtle in captivity is 33 years
old.
c. American bison are never over 6 feet tall.
Counterexamples are simply used to disprove conjectures.
(a) Elephants and Giraffes
This conjecture may or may not be true.
However, it can be disproved by the following counterexample
There are sometimes more elephants in a zoo than giraffes
The word "sometimes" disproves the original conjecture
(b) The oldest leatherback sea turtle
This conjecture is not true.
This is so because the oldest leatherback sea turtle in captivity is actually 400 years old.
So, the conjecture can be disproved by the following counterexample
The oldest leatherback sea turtle in captivity is 400 years old.
(c) American bison
This conjecture may or may not be true.
However, it can be disproved by the following counterexample
American bison are sometimes over 6 feet tall
The word "sometimes" disproves the original conjecture

Step-by-step explanation:
3/5 are done, that means 2/5 are still to do.
that means these 30 km are these 2/5.
2/5 x = 30
2x = 150
x = 75
the total distance is 75 km.
Answer:
75 km
Step-by-step explanation:
2/5 = 30 km
→ Find 1/5
1/5 = 15 km

Since the shape is an equilateral triangle, all the angles are equal measure, 60° and all the sides are also of equal measure that was given, root3. So half of the triangle has length (root3)/2. The perpendicular drawn in the interior is also an angle bisector. The triangles created are 30°-60°-90° triangles. The sides of this special right triangle are in the ratio
s : 2s : sroot3
The longest side of the 30-60-90 triangle is given. The shortest side is half the length of the longest side. The length of the long leg is the short leg × root3
In this diagram the short leg is (root3)/2 .
(root3)/2 × root3 = 3/2

How many sides does the regular polygon have if each interior angle measure is four times the (1 point)
measure of each exterior angle measure?
Answer:
The exterior and interior angles must add up to 180 degrees. Thus, 180 divided by five gives the exterior angle as 36 degrees (and hence the interior angles as 144 degrees).
Answer:
10 Sides
Step-by-step explanation:
Int Angle + Ext Angle = 180
4Ext + Ext = 180
Ext = 36 degrees

Explanation:
For equation A, I'll transform the right hand side into a similar form as the left side. Throughout the steps below, the left hand side stays the same.
[tex]\sqrt{448x^c} = 8x^3\sqrt{7x}\\\\\sqrt{448x^c} = \sqrt{(8x^3)^2}\sqrt{7x}\\\\\sqrt{448x^c} = \sqrt{64x^{3*2}}\sqrt{7x}\\\\\sqrt{448x^c} = \sqrt{64x^{6}}\sqrt{7x}\\\\\sqrt{448x^c} = \sqrt{64x^{6}*7x}\\\\\sqrt{448x^c} = \sqrt{64*7x^{6+1}}\\\\\sqrt{448x^c} = \sqrt{448x^{7}}\\\\[/tex]
Therefore, c = 7
Notice that 7/2 = 3 remainder 1. The quotient 3 is the exponent for the term outside the root for [tex]8x^3\sqrt{7x}[/tex] while the remainder 1 is the exponent for the x term inside the root.
---------------------------------------
We do the same idea for equation B.
[tex]\sqrt[3]{576x^{d}} = 4x\sqrt[3]{9x^{2}}\\\\\sqrt[3]{576x^{d}} = \sqrt[3]{(4x)^3}\sqrt[3]{9x^{2}}\\\\\sqrt[3]{576x^{d}} = \sqrt[3]{64x^3}\sqrt[3]{9x^{2}}\\\\\sqrt[3]{576x^{d}} = \sqrt[3]{64x^3*9x^{2}}\\\\\sqrt[3]{576x^{d}} = \sqrt[3]{64*9x^{3+2}}\\\\\sqrt[3]{576x^{d}} = \sqrt[3]{576x^{5}}\\\\[/tex]
This must mean d = 5
Note: 5/3 = 1 remainder 2, which means [tex]\sqrt[3]{x^5} = x^1\sqrt[3]{x^2} = x\sqrt[3]{x^2}[/tex]

Fill in the blanks so that the equation has infinitely many solutions.
5y + 6 + 7y = blank (6y + blank)
Answer:
5y +6 +7y = 2 (6y + 3 )
Step-by-step explanation:
We can name the blanks 'a' and 'b'. Then we have ...
5y +6 +7y = a(6y +b)
This will have infinitely many solutions when both sides simplify to the same expression.
12y +6 = 6ay +ab
To have these expressions be the same, we must have ...
12 = 6a . . . . same coefficient of y
6 = ab . . . . same constant
The first of these equations tells us ...
a = 12/6 = 2
Then the second equation tells us ...
b = 6/a = 6/2 = 3
The equation with the blanks filled in is ...
5y +6 +7y = 2 (6y + 3 )
According to the histogram of travel times to work from the US 2000 census (Page 6 of "Journey to Work: 2000"), roughly what percentage of commuters travel more than 45 minutes?
Histograms are used to represent data, where the length of each bar represents the frequency of the data element
The histogram is not given; So, I will give a general explanation.
Assume that the number of commuters that travel more than 45 minutes is 450, while the total number of commuters surveyed is 500.
The percentage of commuters that travel more than 45 minutes is the quotient of the commuters that travel more than 45 minutes and the total number of surveyed commuters.
So, we have:
[tex]\%Percentage = \frac{450}{500}[/tex]
Divide 450 by 500
[tex]\%Percentage = 0.9[/tex]
Express as percentage
[tex]\%Percentage = 90\%[/tex]
Hence, the percentage of commuters that travel more than 45 minutes is 90%

Hope that helps!
Please help. I really need an explanation on how to solve and graph the first equation.
Answer:
see attached
Step-by-step explanation:
The "slope-intercept" form of an equation for a line is ...
y = mx + b . . . . . . slope m, y-intercept b; m = rise/run
__
boundary linesThere are several ways to graph equations for a line. One is to make use of the intercepts. That is easiest when their coordinates are integer values. The second inequality is in slope-intercept form, so it is easy to see that its y-intercept is -2.
The first inequality can be put into slope-intercept form by solving for y. That is easily done here by subtracting 6x:
y ≤ -6x +10
This shows you the boundary line has a slope of -6 and a y-intercept of 10. To graph it, you can plot the points (0, 10) and (1, 4) and draw a line through them. The point (1, 4) is found by using a "rise" of -6 and a "run" of 1 from the y-intercept:
m = -6 = rise/run = -6/1
(y-intercept) + (run, rise) = (0, 10) +(1, -6) = (1, 4) . . . . another point on the line
__
Similarly, the boundary line of the second inequality goes through its y-intercept (0, -2) and the point (y-intercept) +(1, 5) = (1, 3). Points (0,-2) and (1, 3) are two points on that boundary line.
__
In both cases, the inequality includes the "or equal to ..." case, so the boundary line is part of the solution set. Accordingly, each is drawn as a solid line (not dashed).
__
shadingTo determine where the shading is, you can choose any term with a positive coefficient and look at where it is in relation to the inequality symbol. For your two inequalities, we can look at the left side of the inequality.
first: 6x ≤
second: y ≥
These tell you the first solution set is shaded to the left of the boundary line (where x-values are less than those on the line). The second solution set is shaded above the boundary line (where y-values are greater than those on the line). The solution set for the system of inequalities is the doubly-shaded area to the left of both boundary lines.
_____
Additional comment
The x-term in the second inequality has a positive coefficient also. If we were to look at that one, we would see ≥ 5x. That is, the boundary line has greater x-values than those in the solution set, so it, too, will be shaded to the left. (Left and above are the same half-plane for a line with positive slope.)
If both coefficients are negative, you can multiply by -1, which will also reverse the inequality symbol.
Example: -x-y>6 ⇒ x+y<-6; shaded left or below dashed line.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Luis goes out to lunch. The bill, before tax and tip, was $14.60. A sales tax of 9% was added on. Luis tipped 19% on the amount after the sales tax was added. How much tip did he leave? Round to the nearest cent.
Add the sales tax to the bill:
Bill with tax = 14.60 x 1.09 = $15.95
Multiply the total bill by the tip percentage:
Tip = 15.95 x 0.19 = 3.02
Tip = $3.02
