A leak in a pool causes the height of the water to decrease by 0.25 foot over 2 hours. After the leak is fixed, the height of th

slavikrds [6]

Answer:

Assuming the leak took 2 hours to fix, the original height of the pool is 5 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is probably the most simple "high school" problem I've seen in a while. All you have to do is move the negative 0.25 to the other side to isolate x. That gives you 4.75 + 0.25, or 5 feet.

Hannah is asked to convert the number 0.00000305 to scientific notation. Her answer is 3.05 × 106. Which statement best describe

Sophie [7]

Answer: if u mean 3.05 x 10^6 then Hannah is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

With scientific notations you should have one number on the left side of the decimal so 3.05 is correct and since you move the decimal to the right six times you would get 3.05 * 10^6

A small combination lock on a suitcase has 55 wheels, each labeled with the 10 digits 0 to 9. How many 55 digit combinations ar

den301095 [7]

Suppose $a_n$ is the number of possible combinations for a suitcase with a lock consisting of $n$ wheels. If you added one more wheel onto the lock, there would only be 9 allowed possible digits you can use for the new wheel. This means the number of possible combinations for $n+1$ wheels, or $a_{n+1}$ is given recursively by the formula

$a_{n+1}=9a_n$

starting with $a_1=10$ (because you can start the combination with any one of the ten available digits 0 through 9).

For example, if the combination for a 3-wheel lock is 282, then a 4-wheel lock can be any one of 2820, 2821, 2823, ..., 2829 (nine possibilities depending on the second-to-last digit).

By substitution, you have

$a_{n+1}=9a_n=9^2a_{n-1}=9^3a_{n-2}=\cdots=9^na_1=10\times9^n$

This means a lock with 55 wheels will have

$a_{55}=10\times9^{54}$

possible combinations (a number with 53 digits).

Jessie graphed one of the lines in a system of equations: Y=3x-2 If the system has an infinite number of solutions, which statem

katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

2, 4, and 5

Step-by-step explanation:

There are three states that a system of linear equations can be in. Intersecting, parallel, and overlapping. Intersecting results in one solution, parallel results in none, and overlapping makes all solutions that are on the line correct. The question says that there are infinite solutions, so it must be overlapping. We can immediately rule out the first one because only points that lie on the line can be solutions. Since we know that the system has all of the solutions shown, 2 has to be true. 3 is the same idea. When you plug the x value (20) into the equation, you get the y value (58) meaning that it must be true. 5 is stated above.
