it cant be a negative number or zero

 so now you are left with 0.5, 2 and 7.9

15.7 - 0.5 = 15.2 ( 15.2/2 = 7.6)  this is possible

15.7 - 2 = 13.7 ( 13.7/2 = 6.85) this is possible

15.7 - 7.9 = 7.8 ( 7.8/2 = 3.9) (7.9/2 = 3.95) since the sides would be shorter than half the base this is not possible to form a triangle


so b can be either 0.5 or 2

A new shopping mall records 150 total shoppers on their first day of business. Each day after that, the number of shoppers is 15
Wewaii [24]

The number of shoppers is an illustration of an exponential function.

The expression for the number of shoppers is: \mathbf{f(n) = 150(1.15)^n}

The given parameters are:

<em />\mathbf{a = 150}<em> -- the number of shoppers on the first day of business</em>

<em />\mathbf{r = 15\%}<em> --- the rate</em>

<em />

Because, the number of shoppers <em>increases each day</em>, the number of shopper on a certain day is:

\mathbf{f(n) = a \times (1 + r)^n}

Substitute 15% for r

\mathbf{f(n) = a \times (1 + 15\%)^n}

Express percentage as decimal

\mathbf{f(n) = a \times (1 + 0.15)^n}

\mathbf{f(n) = a \times (1.15)^n}

Substitute 150 for a

\mathbf{f(n) = 150 \times (1.15)^n}

\mathbf{f(n) = 150(1.15)^n}

Hence, the expression for the number of shoppers is: \mathbf{f(n) = 150(1.15)^n}

a student must have an average on five test that is greater than it equal to 80% but less than 90% to receive a final grade of B
Bad White [126]

Answer:

  89–100

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the grade on the fifth test. The average for 5 tests wants to be between 80 and 90, so we have ...

  80 ≤ (78 +62 +91 +80 +x)/5 ≤ 90

Multiplying by 5 gives

  400 ≤ 311 +x ≤ 450

Subtracting 311 gives the range for the fifth test grade.

  89 ≤ x ≤ 139

Since the maximum available score is 100, the range on the 5th test for an overall B grade is ...

  89 ≤ x ≤ 100 . . . . where x is the grade on the 5th test

Please help me find the area of this please
frozen [14]

Answer:

117 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

area of rectangle = 13 * 7 = 91cm²

area of upper one right angle triangle= 1/2 * 6.5 * 4 =13 cm²

area of both triangles = 13 cm² * 2 = 26 cm²

Total area = 91cm² + 26 cm²

--> 117 cm²
