Answer:

It lies between the numbers 4 and 5

Step-by-step explanation:

If John has 17 leaves and 4 cages then he should put 17/4, or 16/4+1/4 which is 4+0.25, or 4.25 in each cage.

klemol [59]

Answer:

y= -50x + 400

Step-by-step explanation:

-50 miles from the place which means they are going further and further away so it is negative. And its 400 because y=mx+b the b is 400 because thats where they started.  Also it said it was correct on A-p-e-x.

The base of a triangle is twelvetwelve more than twice its height. if the area of the triangle is 4545 square​ centimeters, find
mr Goodwill [35]
In order to begin we must start off with the formula for the area of a triangle, which is a=1/2b(h) where a is area, b is base, and h is height.

In this scenario, we know that the area is 45cm^2 and the base is 2h+12 (since it is twice it’s height plus twelve). We can plug this into the area equation and then proceed to solve out accordingly.
a=1/2b(h)
45=1/2(2h+12)(h)
90=(2h+12)(h)
90=2h^2 + 12h
0= 2h^2 + 12h - 90

Simplify by dividing the two out.

h^2 + 6h - 45 = 0.

Now plug into the quadratic formula (with a=1, b=6, and c=-45) as shown in the image below.

After plugging the equation in and solving, we come to the idea that h is roughly equal to 4.34. We can now plug this back into the triangle area formula to solve out for b.
a=1/2b(h)
45=1/2(2h + 12)(h)
45=1/2(20.69)(4.34)
45=45.

In conclusion;
The height is ≈ 4.34
The base is ≈ 8.68

Hope this helps :)

naomi's fish is 40 millimeters long. her guinea pig is 25 centimeters long. how much longer is the guinea pig than her fish
horrorfan [7]
Hi there!

The correct answer is 6.25 times.

This is how you get there:

1) First off, you are going to need to have the same unit (either cm or mm). I used millimeters for this problem. 25cm=250mm

2) This next part is very easy to get wrong. You need to figure out what you are dividing, and by what. Simply look at the problem. <span><em>"How much longer is the guinea pig than her fish?" </em>This shows what numbers you should be getting. The guinea pig is 250mm long, where the fish is only 40. This means that her guinea pig should be larger. 250÷40=6.25

If you did this problem the other way, you would've ended up with .16. If you put the sizes into perspective, you will notice that this is highly unlikely.

I hope that I have been able to simplify this problem for you!
