Answer:

6 3/8 inches (6.375 inches)

Step-by-step explanation:

For simplicity we'll assume that both the photo and the poster board are square. To determine the width of the border, subtract 8.5 inches from the poster board width 21.25 inches, obtaining 12.75 inches, and then divide that 12.75 inches by 2: 6.375 inches (6 3/8 inches).

Set the photo 6 3/8 inches from each edge of the poster board.

The correct answer is B.

To increase the median you have to add or subtract a whole number from the set. Because this just changed the value of one of them the median stays the same.

HELPPP!!!???PLEASE HELPPP!!

andriy [413]

Answer:

$\frac{5}{14}$ $or$ $0.357142857143$

Step-by-step explanation:

__________________________________________________________

$\frac{2}{7}\div\frac{4}{5}$ = $\frac{5}{14}$ $because$ ,

$\frac{2}{7}$ = $0.285714285714$

$\frac{4}{5}$ = $0.8$

$0.285714285714$ $\div$ $0.8$ = $0.357142857143$

$\frac{5}{14}$ = $0.357142857143$

5. MAPPING Ben and Kate are making a

Rainbow [258]

Answer:

a. 1,000 yards

b. (2, -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Coordinates of Ben's House = (6, 2)

Coordinates of Kate's House = (-2, -4)

a. Number of yards between Kate and Ben's House using instance formula, $d = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}$ .

$d = \sqrt{(6 -(-2))^2 + (2 -(-4))^2}$

$d = \sqrt{(8)^2 + (6)^2}$

$d = \sqrt{64 + 36}$

$d = \sqrt{100}$

$d = 10 units$

1 unit = 100 yards

Therefore, 10 units = 1,000 yards.

Kate and Ben's House are 1,000 yards apart.

b. Since Jason's home is halfway between Ben and Kate's House, therefore, Jason's location is the midpoint between Ben and Kate's House. Use the midpoint formula to calculate the coordinates of Jason's location on the map, using (6, 2) and (-2, -4).

$M(\frac{x_1 + x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1 + y_2}{2})$

Plug in the values

$M(\frac{6 +(-2)}{2}, \frac{2 +(-4)}{2})$

$M(\frac{4}{2}, \frac{-2}{2})$

$M(2, -1)$

A beaker is completely filled with water

Tju [1.3M]

Answer:6.3 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Radius of sphere $r=4\ cm$

When ball is immersed in beaker, it causes the water to flowout of beaker which is collected in the conical vessel

Such that amount of water equivalent to sphere volume is collected in it.

volume of ball

$V_s=\frac{4\pi }{3}r^3$

$V_s=\frac{4\pi }{3}\times 4^3$

$V_s=\frac{256\pi }{3}\ cm^3$

Now volume of water collected is in shape of cone then volume of cone

$V_c=\frac{\pi }{3}r^2h$

and $V_s=V_c$

$\frac{256\pi }{3}=\frac{\pi }{3}(4)^2\times h\ quad [\text{h=height of cone formed}]$

$h=4^2=16\ cm\approx 6.29\approx 6.3\ in.$

Function g is represented by th table.

astra-53 [7]

Answer:

D. They have the same x-intercept but different end behavior as x approaches infinity

Step-by-step explanation:

A careful comparison reveals the g(x) values in the table are 1/2 the y-values in the graph. The x-intercepts are the same, but the y-intercepts and end behavior are different.
