L + S = 171
L = 3/7S - 39

3/7S - 39 + S = 171
3/7S + S = 171 + 39
3/7S + 7/7S = 210
10/7S = 210
S = 210 / (10/7)
S = 210 * 7/10
S = 1470/10
S = 147 <=== steve has 147 marbles

Larry has : 171 - 147 = 24 marbles

I drove 380 miles using 14 gallons of gas. At this rate, how many gallons of gas would I need to drive 418 miles?
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

15.4 gallons .

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of gas used  = 380/14 = 27.14 gallons per gallon.

So number of gallons used when travelling 418 miles = 418/27.14

= 15.4 gallons .

In the diagram, point D divides line segment AB in the ratio of 5:3. If line segment AC is vertical and line segment CD is horiz
KIM [24]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the coordinates of pointD if A(2,-6), B(10,2) and point D divides line segment AB in the ratio of 5:3.

If point D divides the segment AB in the ratio m:n, then

D\left(\dfrac{nx_A+mx_B}{m+n},\dfrac{ny_A+my_B}{m+n}\right)

So

D\left(\dfrac{3\cdot 2+5\cdot 10}{5+3},\dfrac{3\cdot (-6)+5\cdot 2B}{5+3}\right)=D(7,-1)

Point C has the x-coordinate the same as point A and the y-coordinate the same as point D.

Thus, C(2,-1)

Use a net to find the surface area of the right triangular prism shown:
vazorg [7]

The surface area of the right triangular prism is 270 sq ft

<h3>Total surface ara of the prism</h3>

The total surface area of the prism is the  sum of all the area of its faces

For the two triangles

A = 2(0.5bh)

A = bh

A = 7 * 12 = 84 sq.ft

For the two rectangles

A = 2lw

A = 2(6*12)

A = 2 * 72 = 144 sq.ft

For the third triangle;
Area  6ft * 7ft

Area = 42 sq.feet

Taking the sum of the areas

TSA = 84 + 144 + 42

TSA  = 270 sq ft

Hence the surface area of the right triangular prism is 270 sq ft

Find the slope of the line that contains (-1,9) and (9,9).
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

When we have 2 points, we can find the slope from

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

   = (9-9)/(9--1)

   = 0/(9+1)

    = 0/10
