What is 3 3/8 tons equal to in pounds?
guapka [62]

1 ton is equivalent to 2000 pounds

we have to find how many pounds 3 3/8 tons are equal to

if 1 ton --> 2000 pounds

we can break down the fraction into 3 + 3/8

then 3 tons --> 2000 x 3 = 6000 pounds

3/8 ton ---> 2000 x 3/8 = \frac{3*2000}{8} = \frac{6000}{8} = 750 pounds

after adding 6000 + 750 = 6750 pounds

answer is 6750 pounds

Me ajudem com a 3º questão
Alisiya [41]

I can't read that language but I'll guess it says write a second degree equation then solve for n when d=10.

10 = \dfrac{n(n-3)}{2}

20 = n^2 - 3n

n^2 - 3n - 20 = 0

Answer: n² - 3n - 20 = 0

That doesn't factor so there is no integer n solution.

That means there are no polygons with 10 diagonals.

n = \frac 1 2(3 \pm \sqrt{89})
