Answer: He gave out 228 pens

Step-by-step explanation:

At the beginning of the month, Frank had 21 boxes of pens with 13 pens in each box. This means that the total number pens that he Frank had at the beginning of the month is 13 × 21 = 273 pens.

At the end of the month, there were 45 pens left. The number of pens that he gave out will be the number of pens at the beginning of the month - the number of pens left at the end of the month. It becomes

273 - 45 = 228

What is the multiplicative inverse of −3/5?
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

The multiplicative inverse is -5/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiplicative inverse means we want to end up with 1

-3/5 * what =1

Multiply by 5 to clear the fraction

-3/5 * what *5 = 1*5

-3 * what = 5

Divide by -3 to isolate what

-3*what /-3 = 5/-3

what = -5/3

The multiplicative inverse is -5/3

lbvjy [14]

Answer:

185/27

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the polynomial that is exactly divisible by g(x)=3x+2, we have to divide f(x)=3x

4

−2x

3

+3x

2

−2x+3 by g(x) and get the remainder as shown in the above image.

Hence,  

27

185

​

 should be subtracted from 3x

4

−2x

3

+3x

2

−2x+3 so that the resulting polynomial is exactly divisible by 3x+2.

I the cafeteria there are 7 teachers 48 girls and 45 boys. What is the probability that a person chosen at random from the cafet
mr Goodwill [35]

Total people in the cafeteria = 7 + 48 + 45 = 100

There are 45 boys.

The probability would be the number of boys over the total number of people:

45/100, which simplifies to 9/20

What is the length of one leg of the triangle? 64 cm 64 StartRoot 2 EndRoot cm 128 cm 128 StartRoot 2 EndRoot cm.
zmey [24]

Answer:

Use the Pythagorean theorem for right triangles to solve this

a^2 + b^2 = c^2     where 'a' and 'b' are the legs of the triangle and 'c' is the hypotenuse

so:

8^2 + b^2 = 17^2     solve for the second leg, b

64 + b^2 = 289

b^2 = 289 - 64= 225

b = 15
