yes but no because you would have to put a 6 at the end so it should look like this.406.84375

40 is not a reasonable estimate for the quotient. 78,114 divided by 192 equals 406.84375, or 407. It's very underestimated for the actual quotient. More reasonable estimates would be 400, or 410. So, since it was so underestimated, it is not a reasonable estimate.


I hope all of this helps! :)

the equation a=1/2(b1+b2)h can be used to determine the area, a, of a trapezoid with height, h, and base lengths, b1 and b2. whi
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

b₁ = (2a – b₂h)/h; b₁ = (2a)/h – b₂; h = (2a)/(b₁ + b₂)

Step-by-step explanation:

A. <em>Solve for b₁ </em>

          a = ½(b₁ + b₂)h        Multiply each side by 2

        2a = (b₁ + b₂)h           Remove parentheses

        2a = b₁h + b₂h           Subtract b₂h from each side

2a - b₂h = b₁h                    Divide each side by h

         b₁ = (2a – b₂h)/h     Remove parentheses

         b₁ = (2a)/h – b₂

B. <em>Solve for h </em>

2a = (b₁ + b₂)h     Divide each side by (b₁ + b₂)

 h = (2a)/(b₁ + b₂)

Answer:

1. 43, 45, and 47

2. 50, 52, and 54

3. 47 years old

4. 106 degrees

5. 66 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's assume that the first number in the three consecutive odd numbers is x.

We can write an equation to express this now. x + (x+2) = (x+4) + 41.

Combining like terms, we get 2x+2 = x+45. Subtracting by (x+2) on each side, we get x = 43. Since the smallest number is 43, we can find the two larger numbers as well, since they are 2 more than one another. Therefore, the numbers are 43, 45, and 47.

2. Let's assume that the first number in the three consecutive even integers is x.

We can write an equation to express this now. x + (x+2) = (x+4)+48

Combining like terms, we get 2x+2 = x+52. Subtracting by (x+2) on each side, we get x = 50. Since the smallest number is 50, we can find the two larger numbers as well, since they are 2 more than one another. Therefore, the numbers are 50, 52, and 54

3. We can write his current age in years as x. Next year, his age will be x+1. We know that the sum of his current age and his age next year is 73, so we can write an equation to express this.

x + (x+1) = 73. Therefore, 2x + 1 = 73, or 2x = 72. This means that x = 36, or his current age is 36. In 11 years, his age will be 36 + 11 = 47 years old.

4. (21x+1) + (14x+4) = 180. Combining like terms, we get 35x + 5 = 180 Subtracting by 5 on both sides, we get 35x = 175 This means that x = 5. Now, we can find the degree measures of both angles and find the larger one. The degree measure of the angle on the left is 21(5) + 1 = 106 degrees, and the degree measure of the angle on the right is 14(5) + 4 = 74 degrees. Therefore, the degree measure of the larger angle is 106 degrees.

5. We know that the sum of the angles in a triangle is 180 degrees. Therefore, we can sum the angles up and equate them to 180 degrees.

(x-24) + (2x-108) + (1/3x+12) = 10/3x - 120 = 180. Adding 120 to both sides, we get 10/3x = 300. Multiplying both sides by 3/10, we get x = 900/10 = 90. Therefore, plugging in x = 90, we get 66 degrees.

A sequence is n(n - 1)<br><br>Which term is 156? The ___th Term​
Bond [772]

Answer:

n(n-1) =156

n^2-n=156

n^2-n-156=0

(n-13) (n+12) =0

so n=13 because it's an ordinary number and can't be negative
