8 tenths is equal to 8/10, what is equal to 0,8. You can calculate the distance by multiplying 0,8 with the 1,6 mile course. That gives you 1,28 miles. Doing that for Sheila’s 9 tenth (0,9) gives you 1,44 miles. That means she swam 1,44-1,28 = 0,16 miles more than Simon.

Which value of a would make the following expression completely factored? X^
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

A. 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Selecting B, C, or D would create a difference of perfect squares since each of these numbers are perfect squares. Additional factoring would then be needed.

x^2-36 = (x+6)(x-6)\\x^2-49 = (x+7)(x-7)\\x^2-81=(x+9)(x-9)

But selecting 12 gives x^2-12 which cannot be factored. It is factored completely.

Moses got into an elevator. He went down 5 floors, up 6 floors and down 7 floors. He was then on the Second floor. On what floor
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

Moses got into the elevator at the 8th floor.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call the floor which Moses started at x. Going down decreases the floor number and going up increases the floor number. We then form the equation x-5+6-7=2  which is the same as x-8=0 which means x=8. Moses got in at the 8th floor.

Adult tickets to a play cost $22. Tickets for children cost $15. Tickets for a group of 11 people cost a total of $228. Write an
yaroslaw [1]
Adults = 9
Children = 2

Let x be the number of adults.
11-x is the number of children.

22x + 15(11-x) = 228
22x + 165 - 15x = 228
22x - 15x = 228 - 165
7x = 63
7x / 7 = 63 / 7
x = 9  number of adults.

11 - x = 11 - 9 = 2 number of children.

To check:

22x + 15(11-x) = 228
22(9) + 15(11-9) = 228
198 + 30 = 228
228 = 228
