Answer:
1 3/40 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
difference in weight
= 2 3/8- 1 3/10
= 19/8-13/10
=(19*5 -13*4)/40
=95-52/40
=43/40
=1 3/40 pounds
Answer:
a=-3
Step-by-step explanation:
-3a=6+3
-3a=9
a=-3
A) I=prt; I=20,000(.05)(4) = $4000
b) I = prt; I = 20,000(.05)(2) = $2000
$4000-$2000 = $2000. You save $2000 by paying it off in 2 years vs. 4 years
Answer:
10 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for the triangle area is the following:
A = b * h / 2
Where b is the length of the base side and h is the height.
So, as the height is 4 less than the base, we have that:
h = b - 4
Using this value in the area equation, we have that:
A = b * (b - 4) / 2
30 = (b^2 - 4b) / 2
b^2 - 4b = 60
b^2 - 4b - 60 = 0
Using Bhaskara's formula to solve the quadratic equation, we have:
Delta = 4^2 + 4*60 = 256
sqrt(Delta) = 16
b1 = (4 + 16)/2 = 10
b2 = (4 - 16)/2 = -6 (negative value does not fit for this problem)
So the length of the base is 10 inches.
triangle on right is the same as the triangle on the left
use pythagorean theorem
hypotenuse will give to the sides of the rectangle
a^2 + b^2 = hypotenuse squared
10.4^2 = 108.16
15.3^2 = 234.09
342.25 = hypotenuse squared
take the square root in both sides
hypotenuse = the square root of 342.25 =
18.5
add up the areas of the 2 triangles and rectangle
triangle area is 1/2 times 10.4 times 15.3 =
79.56
2 triangles areas are 159.12
rectangle area is 18.5 × 7 = 129.5
159.12 + 129.5 = 288.62
answer 1 = 288.62
second question:
to get 1 side take the
square root of 702.25 which is
26.5
to get the perimeter
multiply 26.5 by 4 which is
106
answer 2 is choice B 106
