s=1/23

given equation in term of s is 12+3/2s-1/2-3/4s=5/4s

to solve this first we need to take LCM on left hand side and right hand side                                                                                                                                      we can rewrite given equation as 12/1+3/2s-1/2-3/4s=5/4s                                                    now taking LCM of {1,2s,2,4s,4s} is 4s                                                                                  then the equation becomes                                                                                                              48s/4s+6/4s-2s/4s-3/4s=5/4s

(48s+6-2s-3) /4s=5/4s                                                                                                                      now cancel out denominator of both side                                                                                   we get     48s+6-2s-3=5                                                                                                                      this implies 46s+3=5

                 46s=2

                     s=1/23

Hence the value of s is 1/23

grandma gigi gave leyla a rare purple stone for her sweet 16 birthday. at that time,the stone was worth$245. it has been increas
sergij07 [2.7K]
This is a compound interest problem, therefore s(t) should be in the form:
s(t) = a(r)^{t}

where: 
t = time in years
s(t) = the value of your item after t years
a = the initial value of your item
r = rate

Therefore, we already know that a = 245$.

Now, we can calculate r:
r^{t}=\frac{s}{a}
r =  \sqrt[t]{ \frac{s}{a} }
r = \sqrt[5]{ \frac{560.50}{245} }
     = 1.18

Therefore, the correct answers are a = 245 and r = 1.18

Please help with this
katrin [286]

Answer:

3rd Option

Step-by-step explanation:

When you find the ratio of the 2 triangles, it is 14/5, so the 2nd option and 4th option are out of the park (The triangles are indeed similar). You are left with options 1 and 3. Option 3 is the best answer as you have to match the vertices of each triangle to each other.

Steve is turning half his backyard into a chicken fan. His backyard is a 24 m x 45 m rectangle. He wants to put a chicken wire f
Phoenix [80]

Answer:

51 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Steve is turning half his backyard into a chicken fan. His backyard is a 24 m x 45 m rectangle. He wants to put a chicken wire fence that stretches diagonally from one corner to the opposite corner. How many meters of fencing will Steve need?

We are to find the meters of fencing for the diagonal.

We solve the question using Pythagoras Theorem

= c² = a² + b²

Where

c = Diagonal

a = Width

b =Length

Diagonal² = Width² + Length ²

Hence:

Diagonal ² = 45² + 24²

Diagonal = √45² + 24²

Diagonal = √(2601)

Diagonal = 51 m

Therefore, the meters of fencing for the diagonal that Steve would be needing = 51 meters

A satellite flies 55584 miles in <br> 7.72 hours. How many miles has it flown in 23.19 hours?
dedylja [7]

Answer:

Miles flown in 23.19 hours = 166968 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

A satellite flies 55584 miles in 7.72 hours

We will find the unit rate first,

Unit rate = \frac{55584}{7.72}

Unit rate = 7200 miles per hour

Miles flown in 23.19 hours,

Miles flown = 7200 * 23.19

Miles flown = 166968 miles

Hence,

Miles flown in 23.19 hours = 166968 miles
