For this case we have the following conversions:

1 yard = 3 feet

The estimate distance Is:

400yd = 1200feet

200yd=600 feet

Ten, the estimate Is:

1200 + 600 = 1800 feet

The real distance Is:

The total distance in yards is given by:

440 + 220 = 660 yd

Then, let's transform this distance to feet, with the given conversion:

660 * 3 = 1980 feet

The distance traveled is reasonable for a person

Comparing the estimate and the actual answer, the distance malcom Ran Is reasonable.

Answer:

Malcolm ran 1980 feet.

The distance is reasonable.

440 x 3 = 1320

220 x 3 = 660

1320 + 660 = 1980, which is your answer.



440 is close to 400, so 400 x 3 = 1200

220 is close to 200, so 200 x 3 = 600

1200 + 600 = 1800



This is a reasonable estimate.

So, The value of p is -5/22
Step-by-step explanation:
4(3p+2)-5(6p-1)=2(p-8)-6(7p-4)
12p+8-30p+5=2p-16-42p+24
-18p+13=-40p+8
-18p+40p=8-13

<u>Answer:</u>

<h2>A = 15 u²</h2>

<u>Explanation:</u>

according to the coordinates the triangles is right at the pair (2, -3)

the area of the triangle = height × base × 1/2

the <u>height</u> is the line passing through the pairs (-1, 6) and (2, -3)

h² = (2-(-1))²+(-3-6)²

h² = 3² + (-9)²

h² = 9 + 81

h² = 90

h = √90

the <u>base</u> is the line passing through the pairs (5, -2) and (2, -3)

b² = (2-5)²+(-3-(-2))²

b² = 3² + (-3+2)²

b² = 9 + 1

b² = 10

b = √10

A = h×b×1/2

A = √90×√10×1/2

A = √900×1/2

A = 30×1/2

A = 15 u²

The sum of two numbers is thirty seven. Using x to represent the larger of two numbers, translate “the difference between nine m
just olya [345]

Two numbers = 37

Larger number is x, so the smaller number is 37 - x:

x + (37 - x) = 37

“The difference” is subtraction, so we are subtracting the smaller and larger number.

“Nine more than twice the larger number” looks like 9 + 2x, and “the sum of the smaller number and three” looks like (37 - x) + 3. Because this is subtraction, we would write (9 + 2x) - (37 - x) + 3. First, distribute the negative sign:

-(37 - x) = -37 + x

We then simplify:

9 + 2x - 37 + x + 3 (subtract 3)

9 + 2x - 34 + x

-25 + 2x + x (subtract 8 and 34 then add 2x and x)

-25 + 3x

Kathy's average score after 3 math quizzes was 83. Her score on the 4th quiz was 87. If all 4 of the quizzes are weighted equall
umka21 [38]

Answer:

84

Step-by-step explanation:

Pretend her first 3 quizzes were all 83 since that was the average. So the 4th was 87.

83+83+83+87 = 336

Divide by the total number of quizzes because they are equally weighted.

336/4 = 84

Her new average score is 84.
