Total weight of three items is 2.875 pounds

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that,

Maya is packing her backpack for hike

From given,

pound\ bag\ of\ trail\ mix = \frac{1}{2}\ pounds

water\ bottle = 2\frac{1}{8}\ pounds = \frac{17}{8}\ pounds\\\\flashlight = \frac{1}{4}\ pounds

<em><u>How much weight do these three items add to her backpack?</u></em>

Add all these together

Total\ weight = \frac{1}{2} + \frac{17}{8} + \frac{1}{4}\\\\Total\ weight = \frac{1 \times 4}{2 \times 4} + \frac{17}{8} + \frac{1 \times 2}{4 \times 2}\\\\Total\ weight = \frac{4}{8} + \frac{17}{8} + \frac{2}{8}\\\\Total\ weight = \frac{23}{8} = 2.875

Thus total weight of three items is 2.875 pounds

Could someone explain how you would solve this? I really don't understand it.
nlexa [21]
Because of rules of geometry we know that a+b=180 degrees so we can add the equations together and set that equal to 180 and solve
6x-48+4x+38=180
subtract 38 from both sides and add 48 to both sides
then add like terms
10x=170
and divide by 10 to get 
x=17

Step by step directions Square root for 480
m_a_m_a [10]
<span>  <span>first off your answer is 21.90 and the step by step i  wrote it for you:) Finding the square root of a number is the inverse operation of squaring that number. Remember, the square of a number is that number times itself. </span> The perfect squares are the squares of the whole numbers. The square root of a number, n, written below is the number that gives n when multiplied by itself.   </span>                                                                                                                                                                          <span>Many mathematical operations have an inverse, or opposite, operation. Subtraction is the opposite of addition, division is the inverse of multiplication, and so on. Squaring, which we learned about in a previous lesson (exponents), has an inverse too, called "finding the square root." Remember, the square of a number is that number times itself. The perfect squares are the squares of the whole numbers: 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81, 100 … </span> The square root of a number, n, written <span> is the number that gives n when multiplied by itself. For example,</span> <span>because 10 x 10 = 100</span> Examples Here are the square roots of all the perfect squares from 1 to 100. Finding square roots of of numbers that aren't perfect squares without a calculator 1. Estimate - first, get as close as you can by finding two perfect square roots your number is between. 2. Divide - divide your number by one of those square roots.
3. Average - take the average of the result of step 2 and the root. <span>4. Use the result of step 3 to repeat steps 2 and 3 until you have a number that is accurate enough for you.
</span> Example: Calculate the square root of 10 () to 2 decimal places. <span>1. Find the two perfect square numbers it lies between.
</span> <span><span>Solution:
</span><span>32 = 9 and 42 = 16, so lies between 3 and 4.</span></span> <span>2. Divide 10 by 3. 10/3 = 3.33 (you can round off your answer)</span> <span>3. Average 3.33 and 3. (3.33 + 3)/2 = 3.1667</span> <span>Repeat step 2: 10/3.1667 = 3.1579</span><span>Repeat step 3: Average 3.1579 and 3.1667. (3.1579 + 3.1667)/2 = 3.1623</span> Try the answer --> Is 3.1623 squared equal to 10? 3.1623 x 3.1623 = 10.0001 If this is accurate enough for you, you can stop! Otherwise, you can repeat steps 2 and 3. <span>Note: There are a number of ways to calculate square roots without a calculator. This is only one of them.</span>         <span><span>

What is the quadratic in vertex form that has a vertex of (-1, 5)<br><br> Options in image
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

Third option

y = (x+1) ^ 2 + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case we must write a quadratic equation in the vertex form.

We have the vertice. (-1, 5)

We know that the vertex form for a quadratic equation is:

y = (x-h) ^ 2 + k.

Where (h, k) is the vertex.

So if the vertex is (-1, 5), the equation sought is:

y = (x-(-1)) ^ 2 + 5

y = (x+1)) ^ 2 + 5

Therefore the answer is the Third option.
