Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's check each one-by-one.

we know 3.79 liters is 1 gallon, so 4 liters IS NOT LESS THAN 1 gallon

THis is false.

We know 1 feet is 0.30 meters, so definitely 1 foot is less than 1 meter.

This is true.

we know around 28.35 grams is 1 ounce, so definitely 25 grams is less than 1 ounce.

THis is true.

We know 1 km is approximately 0.62 miles so 10 km would be around 0.62*10 = 6.2 miles

So definitely 9 miles IS GREATER than 10 km.

THis is true.

So answer choice A is false, only.

Which step is the same when constructing an inscribed regular hexagon and an inscribed equilateral triangle?.

Naddik [55]

Step is the same when constructing an inscribed regular hexagon and an inscribed equilateral triangle is shown below:

<h3 /><h3>What is construction?</h3>

Geometric construction is the process of drawing a geometrical figure using two geometrical instruments, a compass, and a ruler.

Construction of an inscribed regular hexagon

1) Set compass width to the radius of the circle

2) Make an arc on the circle with the set radius.

3) From the previous arc draw another arc with the same radius.

4) Continue this process for the other vertex.

5) Connect all the vertices.

Construction of an inscribed equilateral triangle

1) Set compass width to the radius of the circle

2) Make an arc on the circle with the set radius.

3)From the previous arc draw another arc with the same radius.

4)Continue this process for the other vertex.

5) Connect the every other vertices point by drawing a line between every other adjacent vertex point to form an inscribed equilateral triangle.

What is the next fraction in each of the following patterns?1/40,4/40,9/40,16/40,25/40...?

tresset_1 [31]

Let
a1=1/40
a2=4/40
a3=9/40
a4=16/40
a5=25/40
a6=?

we know that
a2-a1=4/40-1/40----> 3/40
a3-a2=9/40-4/40-----> 5/40
a4-a3=16/40-9/40----> 7/40
a5-a4=25/40-16/40---> 9/40

the difference is
3/40,5/40,7/40.9/40,....
3/40+[2/40]---> 5/40
5/40+[2/40]---> 7/40
7/40+[2/40]---> 9/40

the next will be
9/40+[2/40]-----> 11/40
so
the next term is 25/40+[11/40]------> 36/40

the answer is
36/40

Creating an Exponential Model

belka [17]

Answer:

P = $300

r = 0.15

n = 12

$544.61 (to the nearest cent)

$P(1+r)^t$

$524.70 (to the nearest cent)

Step-by-step explanation:

P = principal amount = $300

r = annual interest rate in decimal form = 15% = 15/100 = 0.15

n = number of times interest is compounded per unit t = 12

<u>How much she'll owe in 4 years</u>

P = 300

r = 0.15

n = 12

t = 4

$P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}=300(1+\frac{0.15}{12})^{12 \times 4}$

= $544.61 (to the nearest cent)

<u>Yearly compounding interest rate</u>

$P(1+r)^t$

<u>How much she'll owe in 4 years at yearly compounding interest</u>

$P(1+r)^t=300(1+0.15)^4$

= $524.70 (to the nearest cent)

A grocer wants to make a 10-pound mixture of cash tans peanuts that he can sell for $3.29 per pound. If cashews cost $5.60 per p

bagirrra123 [75]

Label each nut with a variable, c = cashews, p = peanuts.....
for a 10-pound mix, you will need c + p = 10
the price for 10-pounds would become 3.29 x 10 = 32.90

You will need an unknown amount of cashews at 5.60/lb and an unknown amount of peanuts at 2.30/lbs to get your full 10 pounds valued at 32.90
5.60c + 2.30p = 32.90

Now you 2 have a system of 2 equations and 2 unknowns
c + p = 105.6c + 2.3p = 32.9utilize substitution to solve:p = 10-c
5.6 c + 2.3 (10-c) = 32.9
solve for c then substitute back into c + p = 10 to solve for P

Hope this helps!
