Answer:

a = 33ft

b= 66ft

c = 48 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to analyze the information given:

  • a (shortest side)= a
  • b (second side)=2a (twice the length of the shortest side)
  • c (third side)= a+15 ( 15 feet more than the length of the shortest side)

Since:  

Perimeter = a+b+c

Replacing with the values given:

147 = a+2a+(a+15)

147 = a+2a+a+15

147-15 = a+2a+a

132 = 4a

132/4 = a

33 ft= a  

Substituting a =33 in the other expressions:

b=2a = 2(33) = 66 ft

c= a+15 = 33+15 = 48 ft

What is the amount of income tax in dollars and cents if a plumber makes $51,482 and has to pay a 5.5% income tax rate? $2,821.5

I really need help with this is due on Friday pls help with steps!
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

1. 11

2. 7

3. 4

4. 10

.

5. 17.2

6. 2.2

7. 3.3

8. 7.9

Step-by-step explanation:

When calculating square root, you always need to find a number multiplied by itself twice that gives the number

Example: \sqrt{64}

What number multiplied by itself twice gives 64? Number 8! because 8 × 8 = 64

Now cube root is a little bit different. This time, you will need to find a number multiplied by itself three times that gives that number.

Example: \sqrt{125}

What number multiplied by itself three times gives 125? Number 5! because 5 × 5 × 5 = 125

Hope this helps!

F(x)=2x is transformed to g(x)=5⋅2x. How was the graph affected?
lukranit [14]

Answer:

vertically stretched by a factor of 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiplying the function value by 5 makes each vertical coordinate 5 times the value it was, so it is 5 times as far away from the x-axis. This has the appearance of stretching the graph vertically by a factor of 5.

_____

Comment on the answer choices

The stretch factor is a "pure number", a ratio of new units to old units. It is "5", not "5 units."

For example, if f(x) is 1 ft (1 unit, where the unit is a foot), then g(x) = 5 ft, the value of f(x) multiplied by 5. It is not 5 ft^2, as you would get if f(x) were multiplied by 5 units, or 5 ft.

You are dealt two cards successively without replacement from a standard deck of 52 playing cards. Find the probability that the
kondaur [170]

Answer:

\frac{4}{52} \times \frac{4}{51}  = \frac{16}{2652} = 0.00603 = 0.603\%

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 52 cards in a standard deck, and there are 4 suits for each card. Therefore there are 4 twos and 4 tens.

At first we have 52 cards to choose from, and we need to get 1 of the 4 twos, therefore the probability is just

\frac{4}{52}

After we've chosen a two, we need to choose one of the 4 tens. But remember that we're now choosing out of a deck of just 51 cards, since one card was removed. Therefore the probability is

\frac{4}{51}

Now to get the total probability we need to multiply the two probabilities together

\frac{4}{52} \times \frac{4}{51}  = \frac{16}{2652} = 0.00603 = 0.603\%
