Answer:

14 3/8 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

6 pounds plus 8 pounds= 14 pounds. 1/4 + 1/8= 3/8. 1/4 can be turned into 2/8, and 2/8 plus 1/8 equals 3/8. Hope this helps :)

Which equation would best help solve the following problem? The height of a triangle is 5 m less than its base. The area of the

MissTica

You would do
42=1/2*b*h
you would plug in what you know which is h=5
then you is multiply .5 by 5
which would be 2.5 then you would divide it on both sides of the equal side
42=2.5*b
which then b would stand alone and 42/2.5 is 16.8 which would equal b so your base is 16.8m^2

Answer:

Converting the equation $x^2-20x+13=0$ into completing the square method we get: $\mathbf{(x-10)^2=87}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given quadratic equation: $x^2-20x+13=0$

And we need to convert it into completing the square method.

Completing the square method is of form: $a^2-2ab+b^2=(a-b)^2$

Looking at the given equation $x^2-20x+13=0$

We have a = x

then we have middle term 20x that can be written in form of 2ab So, we have a=x and b=? Multiplying 10 with 2 we get 20 so, we can say that b = 20

So, 20x in form of 2ab can be written as: 2(x)(10)

So, we need to add and subtract (10)^2 on both sides

$x^2-20x+13=0\\x^2-2(x)(10)+(10)^2-(10)^2+13=0\\(x^2-2(x)(10)+(10)^2) \:can\: be\: written\: as\: (x-10)^2 \\(x-10)^2-100+13=0\\(x-10)^2-87=0\\(x-10)^2=87$

So, converting the equation $x^2-20x+13=0$ into completing the square method we get: $\mathbf{(x-10)^2=87}$

Answer: $86.25

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem, we are given p, r, t.

p=70 (starting amount)

r=0.11 (11%)

t=2 (years)

We can plug this into the equation B=p(1+r)^t

B=70(1+0.11)^2

B=86.247
