work. If a road was made directly from his home to his place of work, what would its distance be to the nearest tenth of a mile?

Answer:

14.9 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

If the road was created, the 3 different roads would form a right triangle where the new road would be the hypotenuse and the other 2 roads would be the legs.

We can use the pythagorean theorem to find the length of the hypotenuse, or the new road:

a² + b² = c²

14² + 5² = c²

221 = c²

14.9 = c

= 14.9 miles

Please help!!!<br> Which expression is equivalent to (3m^-1n^2)^4/(2m^-2n)^3
Elza [17]
\text{Use:}\\\\(a\cdot b)^n=a^nb^n\\\\(a^n)^m=a^{n\cdot m}\\\\\dfrac{a^n}{a^m}=a^{n-m}

\dfrac{(3m^{-1}n^2)^4}{(2m^{-2}n)^3}=\dfrac{3^4(m^{-1})^4(n^2)^4}{2^3(m^{-2})^3n^3}=\dfrac{81m^{-4}n^8}{8m^{-6}n^3}\\\\=10.125m^{-4-(-6)}n^{8-3}=10.125m^2n^5

There are 1420 students enrolled at Senn. If 60% of these students walk to school, how many students are walking to school?
pychu [463]

Answer:

852 students walking to school

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets start with a simple example so you can get it

if 60% of 100 students walk to school that means

60 students walk to school... right??

so lets simplify it more that means you have multiplied 100 (students) by 60%

or \frac{60}{100}  (note: you can say that 60% is equal to \frac{60}{100} )

so the problem told 60% of 1420 students walk to school that means we should

do this:     1420*\frac{60}{100} = 852

What is 3/4 + 2/3 ???
erica [24]
To add fractions, first convert them to have equal denominators.

3/4= 9/12 (multiply both sides by 3)
2/3= 8/12 (multiply both sides by 4)

From here, add the numerators while keeping the denominator.
9/12+ 8/12= 17/12

Final answer: 17/12 or 1 5/12
