Louann= 14x+24
Carla= 16x+14
 So basically this is just like solving equations. The way I did this was just put random numbers for x and then solve it.
First attempt: 
14(7)+24=16(7)+14
98+24=112+14
122=126
 Okay the first one didn't work so I use 6 for x. 
Second attempt: 
14(6)+24=16(6)+14
84+24=96+14
108=110

So 6 didn't work and you already should know that the answers should be between 1 and 5. 

So now I going to do 5 for x
Third attempt:
14(5)+24=16(5)+14
70+24=80=14
94=94
 
And so the answer is 5! :D The multiply choice questions were worth 5 points and Louann and Carla had 94 for their scores! I hope this help you out and clear for you! :D

just olya [345]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

A is rather a strange choice. The tools are used as extensions of our  senses. That's all that technology has done. We still need to observe things for ourselves if we are to learn. I actually really do not know what this statement means. My answer reflects what I think is true. Our need to observe and think is not hindered.

B is never going to be true. We still have to test things out, even with the best tools that we have.

C: The exact opposite is true. Our knowledge of the universe has expanded beyond our belief with the better tools of technology that we have.

D: This is the opposite of C and is the answer.

A right triangle has side lengths of 0.6 meter and 0.8 meter. What is the length of the hypotenuse? Round to the nearest tenth.
Sonja [21]

Use the Pythagorean theorem since you are working with a right triangle:

a^2+b^2=c^2a2+b2=c2

The legs are a and b and the hypotenuse is c. The hypotenuse is always opposite the 90° angle. Insert the appropriate values:

0.8^2+0.6^2=c^20.82+0.62=c2

Solve for c. Simplify the exponents (x^2=x*xx2=x∗x ):

0.64+0.36=c^20.64+0.36=c2

Add:

1=c^21=c2

Isolate c. Find the square root of both sides:

\begin{gathered}\sqrt{1}=\sqrt{c^2}\\\\\sqrt{1}=c\end{gathered}1=c21=c

Simplify \sqrt{1}1 . Any root of 1 is 1:

c=c= ±11 *

c=1,-1c=1,−1
