Answer: The correct option is (C) $15\dfrac{1}{4}.$

Step-by-step explanation: Given that Jane has $3\dfrac{3}{4}$ dozen boxes of envelopes and she ordered $11\dfrac{1}{2}$ dozen more.

We are to find the total dozen of boxes that Jane will have.

The total dozen of boxes that Jane will have is equal to the sum of dozen of boxes she has now and the dozen of boxes she has ordered.

Therefore, the total dozen of boxes Jane will have is given y

$3\dfrac{3}{4}+11\dfrac{1}{2}\\\\\\=\dfrac{15}{4}+\dfrac{23}{2}\\\\\\=\dfrac{15+46}{4}\\\\\\=\dfrac{61}{4}\\\\\\=15\dfrac{1}{4}.$

Thus, the total dozen of boxes that Jane will have is $15\dfrac{1}{4}.$

Option (C) is correct.

Hi there:-)

She has=3+3/4=15/4
She ordered=11+1/2=23/2
Now how many she has in all
(15/4)+(23/2)=15 1/4 ...answer

15 1/4 means 15+1/4=15.25

Hope it helps

The equation x ^ 2 - 2x + y ^ 2 - 4y = 20 defines a circle in the xy-coordinate plane What is the radius of the circle?

Helga [31]

Answer:

I'll set up the problem and you can do the calculation

Step-by-step explanation:

we need to complete the squares to get the equation in the general form:

${(x - h)}^{2} + {(y - k) }^{2} = {r}^{2}$

where h = the x coordinate of the center

k = the y coordinate of the center

r = the radius

so looking at

${x}^{2} - 2x$

we can see that if use -1 as the constant we have

${(x - 1)}^{2} = {x}^{2} - 2x + 1$

doing the same for y

${y}^{2} - 4y$

we can use -2 as the constant (basically you that the s

quare of the y coefficient )

${(y - 2)}^{2} = {y}^{2} - 4y + 4$

so now we have to add or subtract the constant on the RHS to see what the square of the radius is according to the general form of the equation at the top

20 +1+4=25

Take the square root and you have the radius

Vanessa has scored 45, 32, and 37 on her three math quizzes. She will take one more quiz and she wants a quiz average of at leas

zhenek [66]

45 + 32 + 37 = 114

114÷3 = 38

4 total quizzes,

for a 40 average on 4 quizzes she needs 40*4 = 160 total points

for 3 quizzes she has 45 +32 +37 = 114 points

160-114 = 46, she needs at least a 46 on the 4th quiz
