Using x to represent our missing values and the fact that there are two missing values gives us x + x = 2x. Because it's the sum of these numbers and 0.34, we get the equation 2x + 0.34; now we set it equal to 2, 2x + 0.34 = 2. 

To solve, 1st subtract 0.34 on both sides to get 2x = 1.66. Now divide by 2 on both sides to get x = 0.83. 

So your decimals are 0.34, 0.83, and 0.83

Answer:

In general the two other decimals are x and y that satisfy x + y = 1.66 where x ≤ .99 and y ≤ .99

One particular pair would be x = 0.99 and y = 0.67

Step-by-step explanation:

If Holland added three decimals that made a sum of 2 and one of them was 0.34, we are going to name x and y to the other 2 decimals.

We are going to write the equation:

0.34 + x +y= 2\\x+y=2-0.34\\x+y = 1.66

So we have that both the other numbers have to sum 1.66, however, we know both numbers are decimals so neither one of them can be greater than 1.

So this problem has many answers and the answers would be all the numbers that satisfy x + y = 1.66 where x ≤ .99 and y ≤ .99

  • For example, if x = 0.99, y would be:

y = 1.66 -0.99 = 0.67.

And our pair of numbers would be 0.99 and 0.67.

  • If x = .80, y would be

y = 1.66 - 0.80 = 0.86

And our pair of numbers would be 0.80 and 0.86

This way, we can find more than 1 answer for the other two decimals.

Answer:

A has the largest surface area.

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface Area of A = 2(10*3.5) + 2(10*4) + 2(4*3.5)

= 70 + 80 + 28

= 178 in^2.

For B:

Area = 2(12*3.2) + 2(12*2.8) + 2(2.8*3.2)

= 76.8 + 67.2 + 17.92

= 161.92 in^2.

Find the slope of the line that passes through (23, -30) and (-7, 18).
babymother [125]

Answer:

slope = - \frac{8}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1}  }

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (23, - 30) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 7, 18)

m = \frac{18-(-30)}{-7-23} = \frac{18+30}{-30} = \frac{48}{-30} = - \frac{8}{5}
