Answer: 5 feet and 7 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

"Give yourself 100 pounds for the first 5 feet plus 5 pounds for every inch over 5 feet tall"

100 pounds for 5 feet + 5 pounds/inch [over 5 feet]

We can separate 135 pounds into two parts: the first 100 pounds and the other 35 pounds: 135 = 100 + 35

100 = 5 feet

35 pounds/5 pounds/inch = 7 inches

So, the height is 5 feet and 7 inches

Answer:

x = -0.17   and    x = -5.83

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to solve the quadratic equation

x^2+6\,x+1=0

We use the quadratic formula using a = 1, b = 6 and c = 1

for a general quadratic equation of the form: ax^2+bx+c=0

Then, the solutions are given by;

x=\frac{-6+/-\sqrt{36-4\,(1)\,(1)} }{2} =\frac{-6+/-\sqrt{32} }{2}

which produces the two following answers (rounded to two decimals):

x = -0.17   and    x = -5.83

A basketball player scored 26 points in one game. In basketball, some baskets are worth 3 points, some are worth 2 points, and f
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

3 points = 2

2 points = 6

1 point = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Total point scored = 26

Let number of 3 point basket = x

Number of 2 point basket = x + 4

Number of free throws = x + x + 4 = 2x + 4

Hence,

Total 3 points = 3x

Total 2 points 2(x + 4)

Total free throw points = 2x + 4

3x + 2(x + 4) + 2x + 4 = 26

3x + 2x + 8 + 2x + 4 = 26

7x + 12 = 26

7x = 26 - 12

7x = 14

x = 2

Number of 3 points = x = 2

2 points = (x+4) = 2+4 = 6

1 point = (2x+ 4) = 2(2) + 4 = 8

7%

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability that a customer ordered a small Given that he or she ordered a hot drink ;

This is a conditional probability and will be represented as :

Let :

P(small drink) = P(S)

P(hot drink) = P(H)

Hence, the conditional probability is written as :

P(S|H) = P(SnH) / P(H) = 5 / (5+48+22) = 5/75 = 0.0666 = 0.0666 * 100% = 6.67%
