Staci is attending a music festival. The ticket to the festival costs $87.96. Staci plans to purchase $30.00 t-shirts from the e

ollegr [7]

Initial cash on hand : $200.00
Ticket cost : $87.96
T-shirt cost per piece: $30.00

The first thing Staci needs to do is to deduct the cost of the ticket from her money.

$200 - 87.96 = $112.04

Stacy has the extra amount of 112.04 to purchase t-shirts. Since, each t-shirt costs $30. To know the number of shirts she can buy, she must divide the difference by 30.

$112.04 / $30 = 3.73

Based from the quotient, Stacy can buy 3 t-shirts.

$30 * 3 = $90 total cost of the tshirts.

$112.04 - 90 = $22.04

After buying the ticket and 3 tshirts, Staci has an excess of $22.04 from her $200.

Find the length of diagonal HJ. Round to the nearest hundredth.

Alisiya [41]

Answer:

The length of the diagonal HJ is 10.82 units

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise the rule of the distance between two points

- $d=\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^{2}+(y_{2}-y_{1})^{2}}$ , where

$(x_{1},y_{1})$ and $(x_{2},y_{2})$ are the two points

* Lets use this rule to find the length of the diagonal HJ

∵ The coordinates of point H are (-4 , 3)

∵ The coordinates of point J are (5 , -3)

∴ $x_{1}=-4$ and $x_{2}=5$

∴ $y_{1}=3$ and $y_{2}=-3$

- Lets find the length of the diagonal HJ by using the rule above

∴ HJ = $\sqrt{(5-(-4))^{2}+(-3-3)^{2}}=\sqrt{(5+4)^{2}+(-6)^{2}}$

∴ HJ = $\sqrt{(9)^{2}+36}=\sqrt{81+36}=\sqrt{117}=10.81665$

∴ HJ = 10.82

* The length of the diagonal HJ is 10.82 units

Factor 28+56t+28w28+56t+28w28, plus, 56, t, plus, 28, w to identify the equivalent expressions. Choose 2 answers:

Effectus [21]

Answer: The factorization of $28+56t+28w$ $=28(1+2t+w)$

The factors of $28+56t+28w$ are 28 and 1+2t+w.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression : $28+56t+28w$

To factorize it, we need to find the common factor.

As 56 can be written as 2 x 28.

So, the above expression would become

$28+2\times28t+28w$

Now, taking 28 as common from all the terms, we will get

$28(1+2t+w)$

Thus, the factorization of $28+56t+28w$ $=28(1+2t+w)$

And the factors of $28+56t+28w$ are 28 and 1+2t+w.
