Lets say you can go on 'x' number of times

If every time it takes 2min to prepare for the ride and the ride itself takes 1 and 1/2 min, then both together would be

2min + 1 and 1/2 min = 3 and 1/2 min

Now divide from 30

30/ (7/2) #notice I changed 3 and 1/2 to 7/2 so they are the same denominator

= 30 * 2/7 # when dividing by a fraction, you can multiply the numerator by the reverse of the bottom fraction

= 60/7

This number can not be simplified. However the number of full rides would be 8 times

7*8 = 56

Now the remaining 4/7 times... isn't possible! You can't go on a ride less than one time!

So the answer is 8!

8 or 8 1/2 because you won't finish the ride due to 28 + 3 1/2 being odd

It looks equivalent.

Do the Pythagorean theorem on the triangle shown.
2.1^2-1.4^2

4.2-1.96=2.24

Sqrt of 2.24 is 1.496 or 1.5
Now multiply this by 2 to get the length of x

7 is one tenth of what number
Sloan [31]

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

70


<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>

Assume that the number we are looking for is x

one tenth is interpreted into \frac{1}{10}


Now, we know that one tenth of the number is 7, this means that:

\frac{1}{10} * x = 7


Solve for x by multiplying both sides of the equation by 10, we get:

\frac{1}{10} * x * 10 = 7 * 10

x = 70


Hope this helps :)

How do you find the middle term of a perfect square trinomial?
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

Take the square root of the constant (number w/o the variable) and then multiply that by 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

A perfect square trinomial is something like this: x^{2} +6x+9. If I have 6x, and I want to find the last term I would take half a six and then square it to get 9.

SO.... To get the middle term of a perfect square trinomial, you would need to do the reverse.. So...

1) Take the square root of the constant...

2) Multiply that by 2
