You can use at most 24 beads that are 10 inches long to decorate the rope.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Length of rope = 120 feet

1 foot = 12 inches

20 foot = 20*12 = 240 inches

Length of bead = 10 inches

Let,

x represents the number of beads used on rope.

As the rope is 240 inches long, therefore, the total length of beads cannot exceed 240 inches.

Length of each bead*Number of beads ≤ length of rope

10*x\leq 240\\10x\leq 240

Dividing both sides by 10

\frac{10x}{10}\leq \frac{240}{10}\\x\leq 24

You can use at most 24 beads that are 10 inches long to decorate the rope.

What is the quotient of StartFraction 7 Superscript negative 1 Baseline Over 7 Superscript negative 2 Baseline EndFraction? Star
Komok [63]

The quotient of the number given number  7 Superscript negative 1 Baseline Over 7 Superscript negative 2 Baseline is 7.

<h3>What is the quotient?</h3>

Quotient is the resultant number which is obtain by dividing a number with another. Let a number a is divided by number b. Then the quotient of these two number will be,

q=\dfrac{a}{b}

Here, (<em>a, b</em>) are the real numbers.

The number StartFraction 7 Superscript negative 1 Baseline Over 7 Superscript negative 2 Baseline EndFraction, given can be written as,

\dfrac{7^{-1}}{7^{-2}}

Let the quotient of this division is n. Therefore,

n=\dfrac{7^{-1}}{7^{-2}}

A number in numerator of a fraction with negative exponent can be written in the denominator with the same but positive exponent and vise versa. Therefore,

n=\dfrac{7^{2}}{7^{1}}\\n=7

Hence, the quotient of the number given number  7 Superscript negative 1 Baseline Over 7 Superscript negative 2 Baseline is 7.

You gave the server at a restaurant a 22% tip and ended up paying $41.48. What was the price of your meal before you applied the
const2013 [10]

Answer: The price of meal before the tip = $34.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The percentage of tip = 22% = 0.22 ( we divide a percentage by 100 to convert it into decimal)

Total amount paid ( including tip) =  $41.48

Formula for Total bill = Price of meal + Tip amount , where Tip amount= 22% of Price of meal.

Let x be the price of meal, then

Total bill =x + 0.22 x (x )

⇒ $41.48= x(1+0.22)  [ By distributive property]

⇒ $41.48 = x (1.22)

⇒ x= ($41.48) ÷ 1.22

⇒ x= 34

Hence, the price of your meal before you applied the tip = $34.

Triangle KML and triangle PRQ are shown in the figure belowK404008 cms4 cms10 cmsOL3 cms6 cmsRM17) Are these triangles similar?1
s2008m [1.1K]

Two triangles are similar if the only difference between them is the size, this means that their internal angles must be the same. If we look at the picture the first triangle has one angle equal to 40 degrees, one equal to 80 degrees and the third one is unkown (x). The second triangle has one angle equal to 40 degrees, one equal to 60 degrees and the third one is unkown (y). The sum of the internal angles of a triangle must be equal to 180 degrees, with this information we can find the values of the missing angles. We have:

\begin{gathered} 40+80+x=180 \\ 120+x\text{ = 180} \\ x\text{ = 180-120=60} \end{gathered}\begin{gathered} 40+60+y=180 \\ 100+y=180 \\ y=180-100=80 \end{gathered}

Therefore the internal angles of the first triangle are (40,80,60) and the angles of the second triangle are (40,80,60) as well, therefore they are similar.

Two triangles are congruent if they have sides with the same length. Which is not the case, because the sides of one triangle is (8, 10, 6) while the other is (4,3 and unkown). Therefore they are not congruent.
