Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram showing the three pieces of paper of three digit in which two of the letters were covered can be seen below.

From the diagram; we have;

243 , 1_7 , _26

Assuming the covered digits are _

The sum is 826.

i.e

243 + 1_7 + _26 = 826

The objective is to determine the sum of the two unknown digits

So; we need to think about what number can we add put in 1_7 to determine the covered digit in  _26

From ; 1_7 , we have the choice to pick from 0 - 9

Assuming the covered digit is 0; let's check if we are right

So; 243 + 1<u>0</u>7  +  _26 = 826

350 +   _26 = 826

_26 = 826 - 350

_26 = 476

So; the covered digit is in the position of 4 , but it doesn't tally together

i.e 426 is not the same as 476, which makes our assumption to be wrong.

Let consider the covered digit to be 5 for example.

So; 243 + 1<u>5</u>7  +  _26 = 826

400 +   _26 = 826

_26 = 826 - 400

_26 =  426

The covered digit is in the position of 4

SO;

<u>4</u>26 = 426

Here , our assumption is right.

As such , the covered digits are 5 and 4

The sum of the two  covered digits are = 5 + 4 = 9

The sum of the circumference and diameter of a circle is 116 cm. Find its radius
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A.t.q,

2πr+2r=116 cm

2r(π+1)=116 cm

2r(22/7+1)=116 cm

2r(22+7/7)=116 cm

2r=116×7/29

2r=28 cm

r=28/2

r=14 cm

Thank you

Write the partial fraction decomposition fro the ration expression below
zlopas [31]
\dfrac{5x-2}{(x-1)^2}=\dfrac a{x-1}+\dfrac b{(x-1)^2}
5x-2=a(x-1)+b

Since 5x-2=5x-5+3=5(x-1)+3, it follows that a=5 and b=3, so

\dfrac{5x-2}{(x-1)^2}=\dfrac5{x-1}+\dfrac3{(x-1)^2}

\dfrac{x^3+x^2+x+2}{x^4+x^2}=\dfrac{x^3+x+x+2}{x^2(x^2+1)}=\dfrac ax+\dfrac b{x^2}+\dfrac{cx+d}{x^2+1}
x^3+x^2+x+2=ax(x^2+1)+b(x^2+1)+(cx+d)x^2
x^3+x^2+x+2=(a+c)x^3+(b+d)x^2+ax+b

When x=0, you find that b=2. It's also clear that a=1. So the remaining constants must be 1+c=1\implies c=0 and 2+d=1\implies d=-1, and so you get

\dfrac{x^3+x^2+x+2}{x^4+x^2}=\dfrac1x+\dfrac2{x^2}-\dfrac1{x^2+1}

A restaurant has 4 appetizers, 5 entrees and 2 desserts. How many different meal combinations could you order?
vovangra [49]

Step-by-step explanation:

1.) Firstly, you need to count out how many things there are. 4 app, 5 entrees, 2 desserts. This makes 11 different things

2.) for 11 numbers there can be 9 ways for each number for 1st nine places since 0 can't be the fist figure and next two are reciprocated from 10 numbers. Therefore 10!/2!

3.)So 99 combinations have 10!/2! Permutations hence total ways are 99*10!/2!

Meryl needs to add enough water to 11 gallons of an 18% detergent solution to make
saveliy_v [14]
The percentage here must be assumed as by volume. Therefore, it means that the solution has 0.18 gallons of detergent / gallon of solution. If Meryl needs to add 11 gallons of water then she has 2.41 gallons of detergent. Calculation is as follows:

.18 = x / x+4

Solving for x, we obtain

x = 2.41
