The answer to this question is letter B
Answer: 278.18
sorry if it's wrong
Step-by-step explanation: if you divide 255 by 11 you get 23.18181818181
so if you simplify you get 23.18 so that is the tax plus the original payment which is 278.18
(b) is the answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
By the Pythagorean Theorem,
A² + B² = C²
Where:
A = Length of side 1
B = Length of side 2
C = Hypotenuse
This rule applies to all right-angled triangles.
The length of the hypotenuse of a right-angled triangle is always the largest value.
Therefore, we can test the answers with the equation above.
(a)
8² + 18² = 20²
64 + 324 = 400
388 ≠ 400
The rule of Pythagorean theorem doesn't work on a, so (a) is not a right-angled triangle.
(b)
12² + 35² = 37²
144 + 1225 = 1369
1369 = 1369
The rule of Pythagorean theorem works here, so (b) is a right-angled triangle.
The question is essentially asking for the least common multiple of 20 and 25. There are several ways you can find the LCM. One easy way is to divide the product by the GCD (greatest common divisor).
GCD(20, 25) = 5 . . . . . see below for a way to find this, if you don't already know
LCM(20, 25) = 20×25/GCD(20, 25)
... = 500/5 = 100

... B. 100 minutes
_____
You can also look at the factors of the numbers:
... 20 = 2²×5
... 25 = 5²
The least common multiple must have factors that include all of these*, so must be ...
... 2²×5² = 100
___
* you can describe the LCM as the product of the unique factors to their highest powers. 20 has 2 raised to the 2nd power. 25 has 5 raised to the 2nd power, which is a higher power of 5 than is present in the factorization of 20. Hence the LCM must have 2² and 5² as factors.
_____
You can also look at the factorization of 20 and 25 to see that 5 is the only factor they have in common. That is the GCD, sometimes called the GCF (greatest common factor).
7) -5-x=0
x=-5
8) 4x-36=0
4(x-9)=0
x-9=0
x=9
