Let's say we're at the store and you want to buy 10 boxes of cookies for a party. Each box of cookies cost 4.89(counting tax), you don't know if you have enough money to buy the cookies with the $65.00 you have with you. You could round the price up to $5.00 and do more simple multiplication. Your total would estimate about $50.00. Now you know you have more than enough money to buy cookies. I hope that makes sense. :)

A 12 ft. rope is attached to the wall of a garage. A dog’s collar is attached to the end of the rope to allow him to safely stay
Zolol [24]

Since it's a wall, I'm guessing it will only have access to half the circle? Therefore:

<em>Circle area formula: </em>πr²

<em>Radius:</em> 12/2 = 6ft

<em>Our case:</em>

(π * 6²)/2 =

36π/2 =

18π = 56.55ft²

There are 950 students at Hanover High School. The ratio of the number of freshmen to all students is 3:10. The ratio of the num
-Dominant- [34]

Hi there! Since the ratios of students at Hanover High School are in different scales, we need to scale them up! First, let's take the ratio 1:2. This can be scaled up to 5:10. Now, combine the two ratios to find the ratio of freshmen to sophomores. 3:10 + 5:10 = 8:10. The remaining number is 2, since 8 + 2 = 10, so the ratio of freshmen to sophomores is 2:10!

Hope this was helpful!

Simplify the following expression.<br><br> ‐3 + 7(a – 3b – 1) – 4(10 – a + 2b)
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

11a − 29b − 50

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract 7 from − 3

7a − 21b − 10 − 40 + 4a − 8b

Add 7a and 4a

11a - 21b - 10 - 40 - 8b

Subtract 8b from -21b

11a - 29b - 10 - 40

Subtract 40 from -10

11a - 29b - 50
