Kurt and Maria’s high school is having a newspaper drive.The goal is to collect 3,585 pounds of newspapers. So far, 21% of the g

oal has been reached. Kurt estimated the number of pounds of newspapers collected by finding 10% of 3,600 and then multiplying the result by 2. Maria estimated the number of pounds of newspapers collected by finding mc006-1.jpg of 3,600. Who is right, and why?

Both Kurt and Maria are right, because 3585 will be rounded up to 3600 durning intermediate calculations and 21% of this amount can be approximated by either finding 10% of 3600 and multiplying the result by 2 or by finding \frac{1}{5} of 3600.

How does 5x + 15 = 45 <br> HELP PLZ
likoan [24]

Answer:

When finding these problems we always have to do the opposite of the operation shown.

In this case its:

5x + 15 = 45

Subtract 15 from both sides (we start off with constants and numbers that are being shown) The reason why its subtraction is because since your adding 15 to 5x the opposite of that is subtraction so use the number shown by itself and subtract it from both sides.

5x = 30

Divide by 5 on both sides since the opposite of 5x is division (only use the number that is shown) We have to get rid of all the numbers on the left.

therefore you'll be left with:

X = 6

For what reason would we use the distance formula to determine the type of quadrilateral?
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

Sides/diagonals are congruent

Step-by-step explanation:

If the distance formula is used to determine the type of quadrilateral, then we are interested in knowing whether the opposite sides are congruent or adjacent sides are congruent.

We can also use the length of diagonals to determine which type of quadrilateral.

For instance the square has all sides equal.

The diagonals of the rectangle are congruent.

Which has the same value as 5/8 ÷2.. A 5/8 × 2/1. b. 8/5 ×2/1 . c5/8 ÷2/1. .d.5/8 × 1/2​
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

5/8 x 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

To change division into multiplication, you must find the reciprocal by flipping the second fraction (note that if it is a whole number, as in this case, it is technically over 1).

(5/8)/(2/1) = (5/8)(1/2)

d. is your answer.
