Hi! 
1/4 of 20 pencils are 5 pencils.
Since he gave away 4 pencils,
Total = 5 + 4 = 9

slavikrds [6]
Short side length = x
Medium side = x + 7
Long side = 5x
Total 49, so
x + x + 7 + 5x = 49
If you combine like terms:
7x + 7 = 49
Subtract 7 from both sides
7x = 42
Divide both sides by 7
x = 6 inches

Select all the exspressions that are all equivalent to 20 percent of 150
Dmitriy789 [7]

<em>Note: It seems you may have unintentionally missed adding the answer choices. Thus, I am solving your question in general to give you the idea of how the percentage works, which anyways would solve your query.</em>

<em></em>

Answer:

Please check the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that we have to determine the expressions which are equivalent to 20 percent of 150.

First, we need to determine what actually 20 percent of 150 really brings.

i.e

20% of 150 = 20/100 × 150

                   = 30

Thus,

20% of 150 = 30

Therefore, any expression that is equivalent to 30 will be included in the answer to this question.

Find the geometric mean of 2 and 3
Sav [38]
The first step in solving this problem is taking 2 and 3 and multiplying them (2 * 3 = 6) .
Now, for the second step, we will cube it. Since there are 2 numbers, we are going to use the 2nd root (2sqrt(6)) This will give us: 4.89897948557 or 5 if you would round it. This would be the Geometric Mean.
