Okay so I don’t have a pen or paper so i’m going to have to write out every step on my phone, let me know if I lose you at any point.

the fraction would be 4/29.16, because you need to equality split the bill between 4 people.

the long division would be:

____________
4|29.16

4 does not go into 2 so place a zero over 2.

0___________
4|29.16

4 goes into 29 seven times, so place 7 over 9. subtract 7x4 from 29.16.

07._________
4|29.16
(-)28
————————-
= 1.16

4 goes into 11 (ignore the decimal and the 6 for now) 2 times. subtract 2x4 from 11.

07.2________
4|29.16
(-)28
————————-
= 1.16
(-) 8
————————-
= .36

4 goes into 36 9 times. subtract 4x9 from 36.

07.29_______
4|29.16
(-)28
————————-
= 1.16
(-) 8
————————-
= .36
(-) 36
————————-
= 0

so your answer would be each person would pay $7.29. I hope this makes sense!!

The triangle and the trapezoid have the same area. Base b2 is twice the length of base b1. What are the lenghts of the bases of
Sati [7]

Answer:

<h2>The lengths of the bases of the trapezoid:</h2><h2>42/h cm and 84/h cm.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of an area of a triangle:

A=\dfrac{bh}{2}

<em>b</em><em> </em>- base

<em>h</em> - height

We have <em>b = 21cm, h = 6cm</em>.

Substitute:

A=\dfrac{(21)(6)}{2}=63\ cm^2

The formula of an area of a trapezoid:

A=\dfrac{b_1+b_2}{2}\cdot h

<em>b₁, b₂</em> - bases

<em>h</em><em> - </em>height

We have <em>b₁ = 2b₂</em>, therefore <em>b₁ + b₂ = 2b₂ + b₂ = 3b₂</em>.

The area of a triangle and the area of a trapezoid are the same.

Therefore

\dfrac{3b_2}{2}\cdot h=63         <em>multiply both sides by 2</em>

3b_2h=126          <em>divide both sides by 3</em>

b_2h=42         <em>divide both sides by h</em>

b_2=\dfrac{42}{h}

b_1=2b_2\to b_1=2\cdot\dfrac{42}{h}=\dfrac{84}{h}

A large mixing tank initially contains 1000 gallons of water in which 30 pounds of salt have been dissolved. Another brine solut
serg [7]

Answer:

(B)\dfrac{dA}{dt}=8-0.004A

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of fluid in the tank =1000 gallons

Initial Amount of Salt in the tank, A(0)= 30 pounds

Incoming brine solution of concentration 2 pounds of salt per gallon is pumped in at a rate of 4 gallons per minute.

Rate In=(concentration of salt in inflow)(input rate of brine)

=(2\frac{lbs}{gal})( 4\frac{gal}{min})=8\frac{lbs}{min}

The resulting mixture is pumped out at the same rate, therefore:

Rate Out =(concentration of salt in outflow)(output rate of brine)

=(\frac{A(t)}{1000})( 4\frac{gal}{min})=\frac{A}{250}

Therefore:

The rate of change of amount of salt in the tank,

\dfrac{dA}{dt}=$Rate In-Rate out\\\dfrac{dA}{dt}=8-\dfrac{A}{250}\\\dfrac{dA}{dt}=8-0.004A

If <br> B is the midpoint of AC, AB=x+6 and AC=5x-6, then what is BC?
nikklg [1K]

If B is the midpoint of AC, then AB=BC. It is also BC=AC-AB

AB = x + 6

AC = 5x - 6

BC = (5x - 6) - (x + 6)

We can kinda use distributive property, like this:

BC = 5x - 6 -x - 6

Combine like terms:

BC = 4x - 12

To verify, we can add AB and BC to see if their sum is equal to AC.

(x + 6) + (4x - 12) = 5x - 6

If we are correct, this equation will be true.

x + 6 + 4x - 12 = 5x - 6

Combine like terms:

6 + 5x - 12 = 5x - 6

5x - 6 = 5x - 6

It's correct!

BC = 4x - 12. Final Answer.

Let me know if you have any questions about this! :)
