Let x = the number of books Dimitrius started with (before last week)

He returned 3 books this week, leaving him with x-3 books.

Then he checks out 8 new books, so he now has (x-3) + 8 = x + 5 books

He now has 12 library books:

x+5 = 12

Subtract 5 from both sides:

x = 7 books

Dimitrius started with 7 books

x+5 = 12

Subtract 5 from both sides:

x = 7 books

He had 7 books.

Kisachek [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

AC = length of flagpole = 12 ft

AB = length of shadow = 14 ft

BC = length from the top of the flagpole to the end of the shadow = x ft

Use Pythagorean theorem to find the length of x,

x² = AC² + BC²

   = 12² + 14²

  = 144 + 196

  = 340

x = √340

x = 18.4 ft

A parachutist's speed during a free fall reaches 198 feet per second. What is this speed in meters per second? At this speed, ho
Archy [21]

First covert the feet to meters.

1 meter = 3.3 feet.

Divide the total number of feet by 3.3 to get total number of meters:

198 / 3.3 = 60 meters per second.


Multiply meters per second by 15 seconds:


60 x 15 = 900 meters in 15 seconds.
