If it is just an estimate then it would be around <em>4</em>. 15.1 is pretty close to 16 which has a perfect square root of 4. Since it is a square both length and width would be the same. To check it you can just square 4 or 4 times 4 and get 16. Hopefully I helped! And sorry if I am wrong.

BTW the exact answer would be 3.88~ (square root of 15.1) just incase you needed that. :)

Andrew [12]

Answer:

25.12

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula: 2πr, r = d/2

Given: π = 3.14, d = 8

Sub: r = 8/2

Simplify: r = 4

Sub: 2(3.14)(4)

Simplify: 6.28(4)

Solve: 25.12

The total cost of an order of gift baskets includes the cost of each gift basket plus a one time delivery fee. The cost of each
Helen [10]

Answer:

x = cost of each gift basket = $14.5

y = one time delivery fee = $135

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = cost of each gift basket

y = one time delivery fee

40x + y = 715 (1)

400x + y = 5935 (2)

Subtract (1) from (2)

400x - 40x = 5935 - 715

360x = 5220

x = 5220/360

x = 14.5

Substitute x = 14.5 into (1)

40x + y = 715 (1)

40(14.5) + y = 715

580 + y = 715

y = 715 - 580

y = 135

x = cost of each gift basket = $14.5

y = one time delivery fee = $135

Write an equation of the line that passes through the point (6, -9) with the given slope m = 3.
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

y = 3x - 27

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Here m = 3 , then

y = 3x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (6, - 9) into the partial equation

- 9 = 18 + c ⇒ c = - 9 - 18 = - 27

y = 3x - 27 ← equation of line

Monyne Phillips three coins. What is the probability that the first second and third Cornwall in the same way (either all heads
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

1 in 8 chance.

Step-by-step explanation:

When a coin flips is has two outcomes: heads or tails, obviously.

Whenever you have a 50/50 probability, in this case a coin, every time you add another coin the amount of outcomes squares, or multiplies by the number of outcomes, and since we are using a coin, two. To reiterate, say we were using a die, a die is a cube, a six sided shape, so there are six outcomes. The chances of getting all sixes with one die is 1 in 6. Add another die and try to get all sixes, the chances become 1 in 36. We got this by multiplying our out comes by our outcomes

1 coin: 2 outcomes

2 coins: 4 outcomes

3 coins: 8 outcomes

Another thing:

Don't be fooled by questions being specific by saying "all heads" or "all tails"...

This is a wording trick, no matter the outcome, the chances will always be equal.

Good luck :)
