No you have to distribute soot would be 6w-12 i think

Total money earned by Juan = 3w-6

Now Juan saved 1/3 of the money.

So money Juan spent will be 2/3 of what he earned.

Money Juan spent :

$\frac{2}{3} (3w-6)$

Simplifying we get :

2w-4

Emma wrote the expression as 2(3w-6) which is not equal to 2w-4.

So we can say that the expression found by Emma was incorrect .

Could someone answer and explain these please? Thank you!

Answer 1:

It is given that the positive 2 digit number is 'x' with tens digit 't' and units digit 'u'.

So the two digit number x is expressed as,

$x=(10 \times t)+(1 \times u)$

$x=10t+u$

The two digit number 'y' is obtained by reversing the digits of x.

So, $y=(10 \times u)+(1 \times t)$

$y=10u+t$

Now, the value of x-y is expressed as:

$x-y=(10t+u)-(10u+t)$

$x-y=10t+u-10u-t$

$x-y=9t-9u$

$x-y=9(t-u)$

So, $9(t-u)$ is equivalent to (x-y).

Answer 2:

It is given that the sum of infinite geometric series with first term 'a' and common ratio r<1 = $\frac{a}{1-r}$

Since, the sum of the given infinite geometric series = 200

Therefore, $\frac{a}{1-r}=200$

Since, r=0.15 (given)

$\frac{a}{1-0.15}=200$

$\frac{a}{0.85}=200$

$a=0.85 \times 200$

a=170

The nth term of geometric series is given by $ar^{n-1}$ .

So, second term of the series = $ar^{2-1}$ = ar

Second term = $170 \times 0.15$

= 25.5

So, the second term of the geometric series is 25.5

A dog is leashed to the corner of a house. How much running area does the dog have? Round answer to the nearest square foot, if

sashaice [31]

Answer:

942 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram shows the area to be 3/4 of that of a circle of radius 20 ft. The area of a circle is given by ...

A = πr² = π(20 ft)² = 400π ft²

Then 3/4 of that area is ...

dog run = (3/4)(400π ft²) = 300π ft² ≈ 942.48 ft²

The area of the dog's run is about 942 ft².
