Well right off the bat, I can see a good reason why it should boggle.
If (x+y)=6 and (x-y)=2, then (x+y)(x-y) would be 12. It can't be 20.
The first 4 lines on the paper are inconsistent, so the question in the 5th line can't be calculated.
Another possible source of uncertainty (for us, anyway) is the remarkable similarity between the way you write ' Y ' and the way you write ' 4 ' . For example, look at the ' Y⁴ ' (I think ...) in the last line.
3a) 3:1 or 3/1
3b) 3:4 or 3/4
4) 125 pages a day
5) 10 skittle per ounce in a bag
6) Market: $23.60/5= $4.72*7= $33.04, Orchard: $32.76/7= $4.68*5= $23.40, Which? Orchard because it is cheaper to buy 7 there than to buy 7 at market place because it is $00.30 cents cheaper at Orchard
7) Because money is always on top of time, amount, weight, etc.
Answer:
$8.40
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for calculating simple interest is
principal * interest rate * time .
Plugging 140 into the principal, or starting value, 3% as the interest rate, and 2 (years) for the time, we get 140*0.03*2 = 8.4, or $8.40 as our answer. Note that 3% turned into 0.03 as turning a percentage into a decimal requires us to divide the decimal by 100
Answer:
8.76
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
15.00 + -6.24 = b
Combine like terms: 15.00 + -6.24 = 8.76
8.76 = b
Solving
8.76 = b
Solving for variable 'b'.
Move all terms containing b to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-1b' to each side of the equation.
8.76 + -1b = b + -1b
Combine like terms: b + -1b = 0
8.76 + -1b = 0
Add '-8.76' to each side of the equation.
8.76 + -8.76 + -1b = 0 + -8.76
Combine like terms: 8.76 + -8.76 = 0.00
0.00 + -1b = 0 + -8.76
-1b = 0 + -8.76
Combine like terms: 0 + -8.76 = -8.76
-1b = -8.76
Divide each side by '-1'.
b = 8.76
Simplifying
b = 8.76
Answer: He will pick up a signal from the transmitter 29.43 miles of the drive.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
Radius = 29 mile
So, equation of circle would be

There is a straight line from a city 32 miles north i.e. (0,32) to a second city 40 miles east of the transmitter i.e. (40,0)
So, equation of line would be

So, we will put this value in the equation of circle.

So, x= 4.12 and x = 27.1
So, y = 28.7, y = 10.32
So, distance between them would be

Hence, he will pick up a signal from the transmitter 29.43 miles of the drive.
