225 meters = 738 feet approximately

Reason:

To convert from meters to feet, we multiply by 3.28

This is because 1 meter is roughly 3.28 feet. It's fairly close to 3 feet which is exactly one yard. A good rule of thumb could be: "1 meter stick is about the same length as a yard stick".

So 225 meters is equivalent to approximately 3.28*225 = 738 feet

For visual comparison, 738 feet is about the height of a 74 story building where every floor is 10 feet tall. Note that 738/10 = 73.8 which rounds to 74.

A student solves the following equation for all possible values of x:

bekas [8.4K]

The correct answer is: 
C) his solution for x is correct, but in order for 6 to be an extraneous solution, one denominator has to result in 0 when 6 is substituted for x.

Explanation: 
To solve this rational equation, we cross multiply: 
8*(x-4)=2*(x+2).

Using the distributive property, we have 
8*x-8*4=2*x+2*2;
8x-32=2x+4.

Subtract 2x from each side: 
8x-32-2x=2x+4-2x;
6x-32=4.

Add 32 to each side: 
6x-32+32=4+32;
6x=36.

Divide both sides by 6:
 $\frac{6x}{6}$ = $\frac{36}{6}$ ;
x=6.

Extraneous solutions are solutions that come about in the problem but are not valid solutions to the problem; the only values of x that would give this sort of answer are -2 and 4, since these are the two values that would make one of the denominators 0 (we cannot divide by 0).

As a salesperson, you are paid $50 per week plus $2 per sale. This week you want your pay to be at least $100. What is the minim

mamaluj [8]

This is simple , minus 50 from 100 and that gives you 50 left . then divide that by 2 and that gives you 25 . so the minimum number of sales required is 25 . hope this helps :)
