Answer:

799

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = the hundreds digit

Let y = the ones digit

x = y-2

We want to maximize x and y. The both have to be single digit numbers

Rewriting this

x+2 =y

The largest x can be is 7 if y is a single digit

x is 7 and y is 9

We can pick the tens digit. Make it as big as possible to make out number as large as possible

799

What is |-8| ? -16

olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

Those little "sticks" are called absolute value.

For example, the absolute value of 2 is 2, and the absolute value of −2 is also 2. The absolute value of a number may be thought of as its distance from zero along real number line.

Thus, it doesn't matter if the number is positive or negative. As it only counts its distance from 0, on the number line.

I hope it helps.

What is the value of x? A. 155° B. 60° C. 35 D. 25°

Harman [31]

Answer: C

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you should see that the bottom right corner is an angle on the other side. So subtract 180 from 95 to get 85. Since all angles in a triangle add up to 180, You do 85 + 60 + x = 180. You simplify further to get 145 + x = 180.

Subtracting 145 from both sides leaves you with x = 35, which gives you C.

So C is the correct answer.

Students were packed shoulder to shoulder in a gym for a pep rally. The students were in a rectangular shaped area of 7,500 ft2.

hram777 [196]

Answer: 1527

Step-by-step explanation:

Total Area = 7500 ft^2

Area covered by one student = Area of one circle

= π*r^2

r = radius of circle = 2.5/2 = 1.25 ft

Area covered by one student = π*1.25^2 = 4.91 ft^2

Number of students who can fit into total area = Total Area/Area covered by one student

Number of students who can fit into total area = 7500/4.91 = 1527.49

Hence the answer is 1527 students
