Explanation:

Since Jerry walked the dog from 6:40am to 7:30am, the total minutes that he walked the dog was 50 minutes. Also a note, an hour is 60 minutes.

Since he is paid at a rate of $6 per 60 minutes, we can make a proportion.

660=x50

From here, you have to solve for x. So cross multiply, and then simplify.

60x=50⋅6

60x60=50⋅6/60

x=5⋅6/6

x=5

So the answer is $5.

Why must one leg of a triangle that the Pythagorean triple represents need an even-numbered length?

pashok25 [27]

Most of the square numbers are even.so if we need to find root over we need an even number to convert it to perfect square.

See the example below

$\\ \ast\bull\rm\longmapsto H^2=P^2+B^2$

$\\ \ast\bull\rm\longmapsto H^2=3^2+4^2$

$\\ \ast\bull\rm\longmapsto H^2=9+16$

$\\ \ast\bull\rm\longmapsto H^2=25$

$\\ \ast\bull\rm\longmapsto H=\sqrt{25}$

$\\ \ast\bull\rm\longmapsto H=5$

Some other triplets are

(6,8,10)
(5,12,13)
(8,15,17)

Evaluate the following integral in cylindrical coordinates triple integral 1/(1+x^2+y^2) dzdxdy z=0..2 y=0..square root(1-x^2) x

sertanlavr [38]

In cylindrical coordinates, we take

$x=r\cos\theta$

$y=r\sin\theta$

$z=z$

so that $\mathrm dx\,\mathrm dy\,\mathrm dz=r\,\mathrm dr\,\mathrm d\theta\,\mathrm dz$ .

We have

$1+x^2+y^2=1+r^2$

and the integral is

$\displaystyle\int_0^2\int_0^\pi\int_0^1\frac r{1+r^2}\,\mathrm dr\,\mathrm d\theta\,\mathrm dz=\frac{\ln2}2\int_0^2\int_0^\pi\mathrm d\theta\,\mathrm dz=\boxed{\pi\ln2}$

At the local pet store, zebra fish cost $1.85 each and neon tetras cost $2.10 each. If Yumi bought 11 fish for a total cost of $

Amanda [17]

Answer: C. 6 zebra fish, 5 neon tetras. Is $21.60

Step-by-step explanation:

1.85 • 6 = 11.10

2.10 • 5 = 10.50

11.10 + 10.50 = 21.60

$21.60

Help please asap aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

wel

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Your exponential formula is in the form y = ab^x. In this form, the coefficient 'a' is the initial value, the y-intercept, the value when x=0. The value 'b' is the growth factor, which is 1 more than the growth rate per increment of x. This problem is asking for the growth rate to be expressed as a percentage.

Given p(x) = 78500(1.02^x), we can compare to the exponential function form to see that ...

a = 78,500
b = 1.02 = 1 +0.02 = 1 +2%

The value of x is zero in the year 2000, so the population that year is ...

p(0) = a = 78,500

The increase per year is the value of 'b' with 1 subtracted:

growth rate = 2% per year
