Answer:

24.8333 with 3 repeating.

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets make an equation for this.

159 - x = 15

X is what we are loooking for so lets isolate it.

Subtract 159 on both sides.

-x = -149

Since both are negative we need to simply cross it out.

x = 149

Now he bought six books, so divide 149 by 6.

You would get 24.8333 with the 3 repeating.

What is the value of x? leave your answer in simplest radical form.
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

2 sqrt(5) =x

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the Pythagorean theorem since this is a right triangle

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

2^2 +4^2 = x^2

4+16 = x^2

20 = x^2

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(20) = sqrt(x^2)

sqrt(4*5) = x

sqrt(4) sqrt(5) =x

2 sqrt(5) =x

Alenkinab [10]

The number of half-hour sittings needed to watch all the shows by Devon is 11

<u>Solution:</u>

Given, Devon records 4 hours of reality shows on her DVR  

she records comedy shows for 3/8 of that amount of time.  

\rightarrow \frac{3}{8} \text { of } 4 \text { hours } \rightarrow \frac{3}{8} \times 4 \rightarrow \frac{3}{2} \text { hours }

Devon watches all the reality and comedy shows in half-hour sittings.

We have to find the number of half-hour sittings needed to watch all the shows

Now, number of half hour sittings is given as

=\frac{\text { total time of videos }}{\text { time for hlaf hour sitting }}

\begin{array}{l}{=\frac{4 \text { hours for reality shows }+\frac{3}{2} \text { hours for comedy shows }}{\frac{1}{2} \text { hours for each sitting }}} \\\\ {=\frac{4+\frac{3}{2}}{\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{\frac{8+3}{2}}{\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{\frac{11}{2}}{\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{11}{2} \times \frac{2}{1}=11}\end{array}

Hence Devon needs 11 sittings
