Let x = one leg. the base is then 3x-17. the perimeter I'd given by x+x+3x-17=33

You have been given the task of transporting 3,000 apples 1,000 miles from Appleland to Bananaville. Your truck can carry 1,000
chubhunter [2.5K]
If the truck can carry 1000 apples at a time, Bananaville is 1000 miles away from Appleland and you pay one apple per mile, then it's impossible to deliver any apple to Bananaville, because on 1000 miles you'll pay 1 apple * 1000 miles = 1000 apples as a tax. So no matter if you go once, twice, three times or a hundred times there - you'll be never able to deliver any apple.

Answer: The highest number of apples you can get to Bananaville is 0.

Please help!!! How many coefficients does this polynomial have in its complete form, including any missing terms?
frez [133]
-5x^3 + 2x^2 + 1

a coefficient is the number that is multiplied by the variable.For instance, the coefficient of 2x is 2....because 2 (the number) is multiplied by the variable x.

so in ur problem....there are 2 coefficients..-5 and 2.

** the number 1 is not a coefficient, it is a constant...a " loner " with no variables (letters) attached.

** and if u have just the letter...such as n, the coefficient to that is 1 but the one is just not written...it is actually 1n.

okay...I am gonna shut up now :)

Patty is building a rope ladder for a tree house. She needs two 5 foot pieces of rope for the sides of the ladder. She needs 7 p
BigorU [14]

Answer:

  20 1/2 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The total length is found by adding the lengths of the individual pieces. It can be easier if you use multiplication in place of repeated addition. You want ...

  (2 × 5 feet) + (7 × 18 inches)

At some point in the process, you need to convert inches to feet. This is done by remembering that 12 inches = 1 foot. Dividing inches by 12 gives feet.

The above expression evaluates to

  10 feet + 126 inches = 10 feet + (126/12) feet = 10 feet + 10.5 feet

  = 20.5 feet
