Answer:

900

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: 1/4 in. = 50 miles

Find the amount of miles per inch. Multiply 4 to both sides of the equation.

(1/4 in.) x (4) = (50 miles) x (4)

4/4 in. = 200 miles

1 in. = 200 miles

Now, find the amount of miles for 4 1/2 in. Multiply 4 1/2 to both sides.

Note that 4 1/2 = 4.5

(1 in.)(4.5) = (200 miles) x (4.5)

4.5 = 200 x 4.5

4.5 = 900

900 miles is your answer.

What is the simplified version of 3\sqrt{135}

Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

The simplified version of $\sqrt[3]{135}$ is $3\sqrt[3]{5}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is

$\sqrt[3]{135}$

According to the property of radical expression.

$\sqrt[n]{x}=(x)^{\frac{1}{n}}$

Using this property we get

$\sqrt[3]{135}=(135)^{\frac{1}{3}}$

$\sqrt[3]{135}=(27\times 5)^{\frac{1}{3}}$

$\sqrt[3]{135}=(3^3\times 5)^{\frac{1}{3}}$

$\sqrt[3]{135}=(3^3)^{\frac{1}{3}}\times (5)^{\frac{1}{3}}$ $[\because (ab)^x=a^xb^x]$

$\sqrt[3]{135}=3\times \sqrt[3]{5}$ $[\because \sqrt[n]{x}=(x)^{\frac{1}{n}}]$

$\sqrt[3]{135}=3\sqrt[3]{5}$

Therefore the simplified version of $\sqrt[3]{135}$ is $3\sqrt[3]{5}$ .

Illusion [34]

Answer:

Given:

The distances, in yards, that a team moves on its first five plays are 2, 21, 4, 3, and 25.

Solved:

1. The greatest number is 25

2. If the moved distances are square, which one is largest?

3. The move which is greater than 4 is considered "big play"

=> 21 and 25 are big play (21 > 4, 25 > 4)

Hope this helps!

Sladkaya [172]

We'll have to assume that interest is charged annually.

interest = i = p*r*t, where p is the initial amount ($25000), r is the annual interest rate as a decimal fraction, and t is the length of time, in years.

Then $2625 = $25000*0.035*t. Solve for t:

$2625
------------ = 0.035t = 0.105. Dividing both sides by 0.035, we get
$25000

t = 3 years (answer)
