Answer:

$250

Step-by-step explanation:

Total parts:

2+3+9 = 14

500/14 = 250/7

2×250/7 : 3×250/7 : 9×250/7

500/7 : 750/7 : 2250/7

The largest share is 2250/7, the smallest share is 500/7.

Find the difference.

2250/7 - 500/7 = 250

the product of 2 consecutive positive into is 1,332. Explain how you can write and solve a quadratic equation to find the value
Dominik [7]
Let the smaller one is x so the larger is x+1 
x(x+1)=1332 
x^2+x=1332 
x^2 +x -1332 =0 
(x - 36)(x + 37) =0
so x = 36 or x = -37
therefor the larger integer is either 37 or -36

What is the value of s?<br> S=
barxatty [35]

Answer:

s = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the interior angles of a polygon is

sum = 180° (n - 2) ← n is the number of sides

Here n = 5 , then

sum = 180° × 3 = 540°

sum the interior angles and equate to 540

39s + 129 + 79 + 145 + 148 = 540 , that is

39s + 501 = 540 ( subtract 501 from both sides )

39s = 39 ( divide both sides by 39 )

s = 1

A conical tent made of canvas has a base that is 34 feet across and a slant height of 12 feet. To the nearest whole unit, what i
tresset_1 [31]
Here you'll need to do some online research, using "area of a cone" as your search term.  There is a formula!  But it's complicated.

Once you've found this formula online, substitute 17 feet for r.  The height of the cone has to be calculated from the slant height (these are not the same):

(slant height)^2 = (12 feet)^2 = r^2 + h^2, where h is the actual height of the cone.

The area of the base is pi*r^2, or pi*17^2 square feet.
