Answer:

1.75

Step-by-step explanation:

If a and b are two numbers, then their arithmetic mean is

$\dfrac{a+b}{2}$

Given:

$10a+10b=35$

Divide this equation by 10:

$a+b=3.5$

Now, divide it by 2:

$\dfrac{a+b}{2}=\dfrac{3.5}{2}\\ \\\dfrac{a+b}{2}=1.75$

The variable Y represents the number of meters of string in the third yoyo

Step-by-step explanation:

In this equation y stands for the unknown variable. The equation tell you that hope made 3 different yo-yos so the number of yo-yos hope made isn't unknown, meaning, it cant be the first answer. The problem also tells you that hope used a total of 4 meters of string which means that the total number of string used isn't the unknown variable. The number of meters of string in the third yo-yo is the only number that isn't. This makes the number of sting used in the third yo-yo the unknown variable, making it y.

Answer: Yes

Step-by-step explanation: 144 is a perfect square. In other words, it's possible to find a whole number that can be multiplied by itself that gives us 144.

In this case, we multiply 12 by 12 or 12² to get 144 which means 144 is a perfect square. Also, it's on our perfect square list which I will attach below.
