Solve for j. 144j2 + 21 = 85
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume the 2 after the j is a square. So, we bring the 21 to the other side by subtracting it from both sides, getting 144j^2=64. Now we divide to get 64/144 = j^2. Make sure NOT to simplify it, it's perfect right now. The square root of that is \sqrt{64}/ \sqrt{144}, or 8/12, which we can now simplify to 2/3. Hope this helps!

Mary walks the 3 day breast cancer walk. They break the 62 miles evenly for each day. How
Semmy [17]

Answer:

she would walk at least those 62 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that in the 3 days of the walk to fight cancer, Mary breaks the 62 mile barrier every day, that is to say that every day she travels 62 miles or more.

You ask us how much she walks in a single day, considering what the statement that goes at least 62 miles each day says, she would walk at least those 62 miles on a normal day.

Which of the following shows 7.538 correctly rounded to the ones place?
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

8.0

Step-by-step explanation:

7.538 start from 8 which is in the thousandth place. 8 will make the 3 turn into 4. 4 is too low so it doesn't change the 5. the 5 change the 7 to 8. so anything that is 5 and up you round up
