Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of an arithmetic series is found by multiplying the number of terms times the average of the first and last terms. Example: 3 + 7 + 11 + 15 + ··· + 99 has a1 = 3 and d = 4.
2.8 = 2 + 0.8
*let's analyze the decimal 0.8 as a fraction
0.8 = 8/10
*but if we divide the numerator and denominator by the same common factor of 2, we find that the fraction can be reduced to:
(8/2)/(10/2) = (4)/(5) = 4/5
*now evaluating the whole value of 2 (from the 2.8), we know there are a total of (5) - fifths in order to make a whole, so for 2 whole, we require:
2*(5/5) = (2*5)/5 = 10/5
*Now we add the fractions together:
2 = 10/5
0.8 = 4/5
10/5 + 4/5
*add numerators only, the denominator stays as a 5
(10 + 4)/5 = 14/5
*there are no common factors between 14 & 5 (other than 1, but that won't help reduce the fraction any), so the fraction is in it's simplest form:
answer is: 14/5
Answer:
7 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
SA = 208 cm^2
SA= 2*a*b + 2*a*c + 2*b*c
where:
a= first dimension = 2 cm
b= second dimension = 10 cm
c= third dimension
so we have:
208= 2*2*10 + 2*2*c + 2*10*c
208= 40 + 4c + 20c
208-40= 24c
168=24c
c =168/24
c = 7cm = third dimension
31.5
because 3 gallons are lost per minute so 3 x 10.5= 31.5
Answer:
14.42inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following
b = 5 in
c = 8in
we are to find the measure of the space diagonal line
Using the pythagoras theoreml
l^2 = b^2 + c^2
l^2 = 13^2 - 5^2
l^2 = 169 -25
l^2 = 144
l = 12in
To get the measure of the space diagonal line in the box, we will use the pythagoras theorem;
s^2 = l^2 + c^2
s^2 = 144 + 8^2
s^2 = 144 + 64
s^2 = 208
s= 14.42inches
Hence the required length ix 14.42inches
