Answer:

10.5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply the ratios by x

3x : 8x: 7x

Add the sides together

3x+8x+7x to get the perimeter

18x = 63

Divide each side by 18

18x/18 = 63/18

x =3.5

The shorter side is 3x

3*3.5=10.5 cm

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

the domain is gonna be ur x values and ur range is gonna be ur r(x) values

the domain has to do with the number of t-shirts.....and it can range from 0 to 25.......so it would be written as : [0,25]...include the brackets....not parenthesis...or all whole numbers from 0 to 25

the range has to do with the money made....and it can range from : -100 to 200....so it would be written as : [ -100,200] ..use brackets and not parenthesis.

Question 26 pleaseee

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

The inequality is $55+10x\leq 105$

The greatest length of time Jeremy can rent the jet ski is 5 and Jeremy can rent maximum of 135 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Cost of first hour rent of jet ski is $55

Cost of each additional 15 minutes of jet ski is $10

Jeremy can spend no more than $105

Assuming the number of additional 15-minutes increment be "x"

Jeremy´s total spending would be first hour rental fees and additional charges for each 15-minutes of jet ski.

Lets put up an expression for total spending of Jeremy.

$\$55+ \$ 10\times x$

We also know that Jeremy can not spend more than $105

∴ Putting up the total spending of Jeremy in an inequality.

$\$ 55+\$10x\leq \$ 105$

Now solving the inequality to find the greatest number of time Jeremy can rent the jet ski,

⇒ $\$ 55+\$10x\leq \$105$

Subtracting both side by 55

⇒ $\$ 10x\leq \$50$

Dividing both side by 10

⇒ $x\leq \frac{50}{10}$

∴ $x\leq 5$

Therefore, Jeremy can rent for $60\ minutes + 5\times 15\\= 60\ minutes + 75= 135\ minutes$

Jeremy can rent maximum of 135 minutes.

Solve the equation or formula for the indicated variable.

alex41 [277]

Subtract 3 both sides first. R-3=ts²

next, divide both sides by t, (R-3)/t=s²

finally, take the square root of both sides

√(R-3)/t = s. 2nd choice.

Convert these unlike fractions to equivalent like fractions and add them. You must use the LCD to get the answer correct. If pos

Gnoma [55]

The converted fractions are 3/12 and 5/12 and the sum is 2/3

<h3>How to convert the fractions?</h3>

From the question, the fractions are given as

1/4 and 5/12

The denominators of these fractions are

4 and 12

So. we start by calculating the LCD of the denominators

So, we have

4 = 2* 2

12 = 2 * 2 * 3

This gives

LCD = 2 * 2 * 3

Evaluate

LCD = 12

This means that the common denominator must be 12

So, we have

1/4 and 5/12

Multiply 1/4 by 3/3

This gives

3/12 and 5/12

When the fractions are added, we have

3/12 + 5/12 = (3 + 5)/12

Evaluate

3/12 + 5/12 = 8/12

Reduce fraction

3/12 + 5/12 = 2/3

Hence, the sum of the fractions is 2/3
