*I'll be keeping the solutions in exact form*
So firstly, square root both sides. This will split the equation into two:

Next, add 1 on each side: 
Next, divide 3 on both sides, and your answers will be 
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
If you use the general equation for an arithmetic sequence,
,
where aₙ is the number of minutes for movie n,
a₁ is the length of the first movie in minutes, and
d is the difference between each movie, in minutes
Our sequence is this:

If we want the length of the second movie (we already know the length of the first), we fill in n with 2:

which gives us a length of 72. Now for the length of movie n = 3:

which gives us a length of 74. Now for the length of movie n = 4:

which gives us a length of 76. One more and I'm sure you'll notice the pattern:

which gives us a length of 78. Now we will find the length of the 14th movie and add up by 2's all the way up to that number of minutes:

which gives up a length of 96 minutes. We will add up by 2's from 70 to 96:

19.5
Step-by-step explanation:
u just divide 39 by 2 and get 19.5
Cost of 1 apple is $ 1.5 and cost of 1 pear is $ 1.25
<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>
Let "a" be the cost of 1 apple
Let "p" be the cost of 1 pear
Given that,
<em><u>One week Beth bought 3 apples and 8 pears for 14.50</u></em>
So we can frame a equation as:
3 apples x cost of 1 apple + 8 pears x cost of 1 pear = 14.50

3a + 8p = 14.50 ----- eqn 1
<em><u>The next week she bought 6 apples and 4 pears and paid 14$</u></em>
So we can frame a equation as:
6 apples x cost of 1 apple + 4 pears x cost of 1 pear = 14

6a + 4p = 14 ---- eqn 2
<em><u>Let us solve eqn 1 and eqn 2 to find values of "a" and "p"</u></em>
Multiply eqn 2 by 2
12a + 8p = 28 ---- eqn 3
Subtract eqn 1 from eqn 3
12a + 8p = 28
3a + 8p = 14.50
(-)----------------
9a = 13.5
<h3>a = 1.5</h3>
From eqn 1,
3a + 8p = 14.50
3(1.5) + 8p = 14.50
4.5 + 8p = 14.50
8p = 10
<h3>p = 1.25</h3>
<em><u>Thus we have:</u></em>
Cost of 1 apple is $ 1.5 and cost of 1 pear is $ 1.25
Answer:
<h2>23 4/5</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
28% of 85 is:
28/100 x 85 = 2380/100 = 238/10 = 119/5 = 23 4/5
