The options associated with this question are:

A.) 2.85 mm

B.) 3.0 in

C.) 0.118 in

D.) 3.0 mm

Now we solve this by the method of elimination.

First, we have to note that the scale has only centimeters and inches. So there is no way that Shirley is going to be able to measure in millimeters (mm). So that rules out option A and option D

Next, when a scale has measurement in inches it would be numbered from 0,1,2.... and the space between 0 and 1 is again divided into 16 markings. There would be 16 markings per inch as shown in the attached figure. So, she is not going to be able to measure accurately to the precise 0.118 inch. So option C is also eliminated.

So the correct option is Option B) 3.0 in

Given the trinomial 2x2 − 5x + 3, what is the value of the Discriminant and what can be said about the solutions.
valina [46]
The formula to finding a discriminant would be b^2-4ac, the b value of this trinomial being -5, the a value being 2, the c value being 3. Then, you plug the values in the equation and solve: (-5)^2-4(2)(3)
This would simplify to 1, meaning there are two solutions since the discriminant value is positive. If it is 0, there is one solution, if it is negative, then there are no real solutions.

Find the amount of cardboard needed to make a box for a single slice of pizza. The box is shoen in the shape of a triangular pri
Molodets [167]
For this case, what you should do is calculate the surface area of the figure.
 We have then:
 Triangles:
 A1 = (1/2) * (7) * (12)
 A1 = 42 in ^ 2
 Rectangles:
 A2 = (1) * (12.5)
 A2 = 12.5 in ^ 2
 A3 = (1) * (7)
 A3 = 7 in ^ 2
 Finally, the total surface area is:
 A = 2A1 + 2A2 + A3
 Substituting values:
 A = 2 (42) + 2 (12.5) + (7)
 A = 84 + 25 + 7
 A = 116 in ^ 2
 Answer:
 
the amount of cardboard needed to make a box for a single slice of pizza is:
 
A = 116 in ^ 2

Tatiana [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

By Remainder Theorem, f(5) = 91.

=> (5)³ - 4(5) + k = 91

=> 125 - 20 + k = 91

=> 105 + k = 91

=> k = -14.
