s, and the third envelope contains only $50 bills. One bill is taken out of one of the envelopes, two bills are taken out of another envelope, and three bills are taken out of the remaining envelope (in any order). What is the least possible amount, in dollars, that can be taken out?

Answer:

order:

-3 bills from first envelope (-30 dollars)

-2 bills from second envelope (-40 dollars)

-1 bill from third envelope (-50 dollars)

total least possible amount that can be taken out: 120

Step-by-step explanation:

Any other ways results in more than 120 being taken away. Need to have the least taken away from the 50 bill envelope because 50 is the largest bill. Take away the most from the 10 bill envelope because 10 is the smallest bill.

Answer:

$120

Step-by-step explanation:

So this question isn't hard either

We can cross out excess information and just find the main points.

a. 3 Envolopes containing 10 bills, 20 bills, and 50 bills

b. 1-3 bills are taken out of each envolope

c. It wants you to find the <u>least</u> possible amt. that could have been token out.

So since we want the least, we must take the smallest out of the largest

In order, 1 from 50 (largest)

2 from 20 (middle)

and 3 from 10 (smallest)

this leaves us the equation (1x50) + (2x20) + (3x10) => 50+40+30 => 120

Thus, we have our answer 120

<u>Hope this helps!</u>

Ys is the perpendicular bisector of xz. What is the length of Xs if xz is 18 inches long?
exis [7]

Answer:

XS is 9 inches long.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

YS is the perpendicular bisector of XZ.

Length of XZ = 18 inches

To find:

Length of XS = ?

Solution:

First of all, let us learn about the perpendicular bisector.

Perpendicular bisector of a line <em>AB</em> is a line <em>PQ</em>, which divides the line AB in two equal parts and is at an angle of 90^\circ with the line AB.

If B is on the line PQ, then BP = BQ = \frac{PQ}{2} and

\angle ABP = \angle ABQ = 90^\circ

Applying the above property in our given question.

Kindly refer to the attached image for the given dimensions.

S is on the line XZ.

XS = SZ = \frac{XY}{2} = \dfrac{18}{2} \\\Rightarrow \bold{XS = 9\ inches}

So, the answer is XS is 9 inches long.
