Chris, Mary Beth, and Allison sat discussing the number of oranges are grown in Florida. Chris says that approximately 14.6% of

the world's oranges are grown in Florida, Mary Beth says that 292 out of 2000 oranges are grown in Florida, and Allison says that 0.146 of the oranges are grown in Florida. Are they in a agreement? Explain your reasoning.

They are in agreement. All of the expressions provided are equivalent. Chris says that 14.6 percent of the world's oranges are grown in Florida. Then, Mary Beth says that 292 out of 2000 oranges are grown in Florida. If we compare the two, 292 is actually 14.6 percent of 2000. So they are saying the same thing. Allison says that 0.146 of the oranges are grown in Florida. 0.146 is actually 14.6 percent as a decimal, so if we change it back into a percent, she is saying that 14.6 percent of oranges are grown in Florida. Sound familiar? They are all in agreement.<span />

Which of the following is a trinomial?
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

A) c^2 + c + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given four choices out of which we need to select the choice which is trinomial.

Trinomial means polynomial having three terms.

A) c2 + c + 6

It has 3 terms.

B) c2 − 16

It has 2 terms.

C) −8c

It has 1 term.

D) c3 + 4c2 − 12c + 7

It has 4 terms.

We see that only choice A) has three terms.

Hence correct choice is A) c^2 + c + 6

Which inequality represents the sentence? The difference of seven and two tenths and a number is more than twenty nine. 7. 2 - n
Slav-nsk [51]

The inequality which represent, the difference of seven and two tenths and a number is more than twenty-nine, is

7.2-n > 29

<h3>What is the inequality equation?</h3>

Inequality equation is the equation in which the two expressions are compared with greater than, less than or other inequality signs.

Inequality is represented with the greater then(<), less then(>) or with the other inequity signs like less than equal to \leq or greater than equal to \geq.

Tenth is written as the fractional part of the number 10. The value of one tenth is equal to 1/10 or 0.1.

The sentence given for the inequality expression is, that the differences of seven and two tenths, and a number is more than twenty-nine.

The number seven and two tenths can be written as,

7\dfrac{2}{10}

Suppose the unknown number is n.  Now, the differences of seven and two tenths, and this number (<em>n</em>) is more than twenty-nine.  The more than word means, the greater than sign for equation. Thus, it can be expressed as,

7\dfrac{2}{10}-n > 29\\\dfrac{72}{10}-n > 29\\7.2-n > 29

Hence, the inequality which represent, the difference of seven and two tenths and a number is more than twenty-nine, is

7.2-n > 29

Answer:

  8 +(3/8)√53 in² ≈ 10.73 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the net of a triangular pyramid with some of the dimensions filled in, you want to find the total surface area.

<h3>Triangle base</h3>

The triangle bases identified by dashed lines will have a length equal to the hypotenuse of the right triangles with legs shown as solid lines. The legs of each of those right triangles are ...

  a = (3 in)/2 = 1.5 in

  b = 2 in . . . . . . shown as the altitude of the triangle

Then the hypotenuse is found using the Pythagorean theorem:

  c² = a² +b²

  c² = 1.5² +2² = 2.25 +4 = 6.25

  c = √6.25 = 2.5

The dashed lines are 2.5 inches long.

<h3>Triangle altitude</h3>

The altitude from the solid horizontal line to the vertex at the bottom of the figure can be found using the fact that all of the outside edge lengths of the net are the same length. That edge length is found as the length of the hypotenuse of the right triangles in the left- and right-sides of the upper portion of the net. Each of those has a leg that is (2.5 in)/2 = 1.25 in and a leg marked as 2 in.

  c² = a² +b²

  c² = 1.25² +2² = 1.5625 +4 = 5.5625

  c = (√89)/4 ≈ 2.358 . . . in

The unmarked altitude of the bottom triangle is then ...

  b² = c² -a²

  b² = 89/16 -1.5² = 53/16

  b = (√53)/4 ≈ 1.820 . . . in

<h3>Surface area</h3>

The surface area of the figure is the sum of the areas of the four triangles that make up the net. Each triangle has an area given by the formula ...

  A = 1/2bh

The left and right triangles have b=2.5, h=2, so they each have an area of ...

  A = 1/2(2.5)(2) = 2.5 . . . . in²

The center triangle has dimensions of b=3, h=2, so an area of ...

  A = 1/2(3)(2) = 3 . . . . in²

The bottom triangle has dimensions of b=3, h=(√53)/4, so an area of ...

  A = 1/2(3)(√53/4) = (3/8)√53 ≈ 2.730 . . . . in²

The total surface area is the sum of the areas of these triangles, so is ...

  A = 2.5 in² +2.5 in² +3 in² +2.73 in² = 10.73 in²

The surface area of the triangular pyramid is (64+3√53)/8 ≈ 10.73 in².

__

<em>Additional comment</em>

Often we work with pyramids that are rotationally symmetrical about a vertical line through the peak. This one is not. The altitude of the bottom triangle in the net is less than the altitude of the other triangles. This short face of the pyramid will tend to be more vertical than the other two lateral faces.
