Answer:

About 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

We can round 4/5 to 1.

We can round 3/8 to 4/8 = 1/2.

So our estimate is

4/5 + 3/8 =

about 1 + 1/2 = 1.5

(Shh... let's check using the calculator... it's 1.2. We were pretty close!)

Which statement describes a process to solve sqrt b+20 - sqrt b=5?
babunello [35]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is:

√b+20 - √b = 5

The first step is we will add √b to both sides:

√b+20 -√b +√b = 5 +√b

√b+20 = 5+√b

Now take square at both sides:

(√b+20)^2 = (5+√b)^2

b+20 = 25+10√b+b

Now combine the like terms:

b+20-25-b=10√b

-5 = 10√b

Divide both the terms by 10

-5/10 = 10√b/10

-1/2=√b

Take square at both sides:

(-1/2)^2 = (√b)^2

1/4 = b

So in this type of question we add radical terms to both sides and square both sides twice....

A parallelogram has two pairs of opposite equal angles.
ABCD so
A = C and B = D

A = 2x + 35
C = 3x - 5

2x + 35 = 3x - 5
35 + 5 = 3x - 2x
40 = x

A = (2 x 40) + 35 = 115
A = C = 115

Sum of angles of a quadrilateral = 360

Angles B and D are equal
So
B = (360 - (115 + 115))/ 2
= 130/2
= 65

B = D = 65

A vendor sells hot dogs and bags of potato chips. a customer buys 5 hot dogs and 2 bags of potato chips for $14.50. another cust
lys-0071 [83]
X=hot dogs
y=potato chips
5x+2y=14.5
4x+5y=15.00
solving the system of equations
20x+8y=58 by multiplying the first equation by 4
20x+25y=75 by multiplying the second equation by 5
17y=17--->y=1 by subtracting equation 2 from 1
substituting in one of the equations
4x+5=15--->4x=10--->x=10/4=5/2=2.5
