Answer:

16 4/5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the amount it will grow by taking the rate it grows times the time

growth = rate* time

= 2 2/5 * 7

Changing the mixed number to an improper fraction

2 2/5 = (5*2+2)/5 = 12/5

growth = (12/5)*7

=84/5 inches

Changing this back to a mixed number

5 goes into 84 16 times (5*16 = 80 ) with 4 left over

16 4/5 inches

If y = 3ab + 2b3, what is y when a = 1 and b = 2

Dominik [7]

Answer: The required value of y is 22.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given the following function of a and b :

$y=3ab+2b^3~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)$

We are to find the value of y when a = 1 and b = 2.

To find the required value of y, we need to substitute the values of a and b in equation (i).

From (i), we get

$y=3\times1\times2+2\times2^3=6+16=22.$

Thus, the required value of y is 22.

you earn 10 points for every coin you collect in a video game. then you find a star that triples your score. write and simplify

Tomtit [17]

Answer:

The required expression for total number of points you earn is $P=10c+3p$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Let c represents the coin and p represents the points before getting star.

You earn 10 points for every coin you collect in a video game.

$p=10c$ ......(1)

You find a star that triples your score.

$star=3p$

Now the total number of points you earn is(P):

$P=10c+3p$

Substitute the value of p from equation 1.

$P=10c+3(10c)$

$P=40c$

А support wire 12 yards long is attached to the top of a utility pole 10

stira [4]

Answer:

6.6 yd

Step-by-step explanation:

$a^{2}$ + $b^{2}$ = $c^{2}$

$10^{2}$ + $b^{2}$ = $12^{2}$ Substitute a= 10 and c=12

100+ $b^{2}$ =144 Evaluate the Powers

$b^{2}$ =44 Subtract 100 on both sides.

b= $\sqrt{44}$ Square root both sides b>0 so you dont need ⊥

b=6.6 Use a calculator to evaluate.
