B) 12 inches would be the most accurate measurement. 

Since the ruler is exactly 1 foot long, the most accurate measurement is 12 inches. 12.005 is a tempting answer, since it is the most specific/exact, but 12 inches is the most accurate, since this is equal to exactly one foot.

21. Mickey earned $475 from mowing lawns last summer. He deposited this money in an
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

first, u need to know the formula for compound interest, which is:

A = P(1 + \frac{r}{100})^{n}

where A is the final amount

P- initial amount

r- percent compounded(interest)

and

n- number of years

so

we have

A = 475(1 + \frac{3.8}{100})^{4}

3.8/100 = 0.038

1+0.038 =1.038

1.038^4 = 1.160885573136

475 * 1.160885573136 = 551.4206472396‬

approximately $551.42

the volume of cube A is 216 cubic inches. the length of each edge in cube B is 2 inches longer than the length of each edge in c
Aleonysh [2.5K]
If the side lengths of B are 2x as long as the side lengths of A then the volume of B should be the volume of A^2
216^2=46,656
46,656-216=46,440

This can be more easily displayed with smaller numbers

If cube X were 2*2*2 then the volume would be 8
If cube Y were 4*4*4 then the volume would be 64
8(volume of cube X)^2=64(volume of cube Y)

Solve the system of equations two ways: 3x+y=5 and x-2y=4 A) using substitution B) using elimination
Vedmedyk [2.9K]
A. solve for 1 variable
let's solve for x in 2nd equation
add 2y to both sides
x=2y+4
sub 2y+4 for x in other equation
3(2y+4)+y=5
6y+12+y=5
7y+12=5
minu12 both sides
7y=-7
divide 7
y=-1
sub back
x=2y+4
x=2(-1)+4
x=-2+4
x=2
(2,-1)


B. eliminate
eliminate y's
multiply first equation by 2 and add to first

6x+2y=10
<u>x-2y=4 +</u>
7x+0y=14

7x=14
divide by 7
x=2
sub back
x-2y=4
2-2y=4
minus 2
-2y=2
divide -2
y=-1
(2,-1)



(2,-1) is answer
