Answer:

31.5 $

Step-by-step explanation:

First lets se how much 1 pound of pasta costs in the store. We do this dividing the price for 8 pounds over those 8 pounds:

12/8 = $1.5 each pound

As 21 pounds are needed:

$1.5 * 21 = $31.5

An educator believes that new reading activities for elementary school children will improve reading
Damm [24]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Unfortunately, you forgot to attach the scores shown in the back-to-back stem-and-leaf display. So we do not know what the numbers are and we do not have any reference at all

What we can do to help you is to comment on the following general terms.

There have been previous and similar experiments or projects like this in other schools in America. These results suggest that the new activities are better because extra or special reading comprehension programs better prepare students to understand what they are reading and comprehend more than basic ideas of the text.

Students that participate in these programs develop a better sense to understand and like what they are reading, considerably increasing their focus and attention.

These programs have resulted positively when trying to improve the marks of the students, compared to other traditional approaches.

Answer: The 2nd option is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you have started off with 4 players, the number line needs to start at 5, because 9 - 4 = 5. This gives us the answer of the second option, because it starts at 5 and goes to the positive side.

What is the solution of √x-5 = x-11
PIT_PIT [208]
Hey!


To solve x in this equation we must first add five to both sides to get \sqrt{x} on its own.

<em>Original Equation :</em>
\sqrt{x} - 5 = x - 11

<em>New Equation {Added 5 to Both Sides} :</em>
\sqrt{x} =x-6

Now we must square both sides of the equation.

<em>Old Equation :</em>
\sqrt{x} =x-6

<em>New Equation {Changed by Squaring Both Sides} :</em>
x= x^{2} -12x+36

And now we must solve the new equation.

Step 1 - Switch sides
x^{2} -12x+36=x

Step 2 - Subtract x from both sides
x^{2} -12x+36-x=x-x

Step 3 - Simplify
x^{2} -13x+36=0

Now we need to solve the rest of the equation using the quadratic formula.

\frac{-(-13)+ \sqrt{(-13) ^{2}-4*1*36 } }{2*1}

{13+ \sqrt{(-13)^{2}-4*1*36 }=13+ \sqrt{25}

\frac{13+ \sqrt{25}}{2}

\sqrt{25}=5

\frac{13+5}{2}

\frac{18}{2}

9

\frac{-(-13)- \sqrt{(-13) ^{2} -4*1*36} }{2*1}

4

<em>So, this means that in the equation \sqrt{x} -5=x-11,</em>  x = 9  <em>and  </em>x = 4.

Hope this helps!

The backboard of the basketball hoop forms a right triangle with the supporting rods, as shown. Use the
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

9.14 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question,

Assuming the diagram attached, is similar to diagram required to support the question,

From the diagram,

Applying pythagoras theorem

a² = b²+c²...................... Equation 1

Where a = 13.4 in, b = x in, c = 9.8 in.

Substitute these values into equation 1

13.4² = x²+9.8²

x² = 13.4²-9.8²

x² = 179.56-96.04

x² = 83.52

x = √(83.52)

x = 9.14 inches

Hence the distance between the rods is 9.14 inches
