Last night, the temperature fell from 0°F to Negative 13 and one-fifth°F in4 and two-fifths hours. Alan calculated the average t

emperature change per hour.
Negative 13 and one-fifth divided by 4 and two-fifths = Negative StartFraction 66 over 5 EndFraction divided by StartFraction 22 over 5 EndFraction = Negative StartFraction 66 over 5 EndFraction (StartFraction 22 over 5 EndFraction) = Negative StartFraction 1,452 over 25 EndFraction
Alan solved the problem, but when he checked the answer by estimating, it didn’t seem right. What error did he make?
Alan converted the mixed number to the wrong improper fraction.
He did not use the correct reciprocal fraction.
He did not change the division problem to multiplication.
He added the numerators and denominators instead of multiplying.

The surface are I cannot find
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

check the picture below.


so the triangular prism is really just 3 rectangles and 2 right-triangles,

now, we know the base of one of the triangles is 2.6, what's its height?

since it's a right-triangle, we can simply use the pythagorean theorem to get "h".


\bf \textit{using the pythagorean theorem}&#10;\\\\&#10;c^2=a^2+b^2\implies \sqrt{c^2-a^2}=b&#10;\qquad&#10;\begin{cases}&#10;c=\stackrel{hypotenuse}{5.2}\\&#10;a=\stackrel{adjacent}{2.6}\\&#10;b=\stackrel{opposite}{h}\\&#10;\end{cases}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\sqrt{5.2^2-2.6^2}=h\implies 4.5\approx h


so, we can now, simply get the area of both of the triangles and the three rectangles and sum them up, and that's the area of the triangular prism.


\bf \stackrel{two~triangles}{2\left[ \cfrac{1}{2}(2.6)(4.5) \right]}~~+~~\stackrel{rectangle}{(2.6\cdot 4.3)}~~+~~\stackrel{rectangle}{(4.3\cdot 3.9)}~~+~~\stackrel{rectangle}{(4.3\cdot 5.2)}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;11.7+11.18+22.36\implies \blacktriangleright 45.24 \blacktriangleleft

Please help
Schach [20]

Answer:

Hence, option: B is correct (11.02 seconds)

Step-by-step explanation:

Spencer hits a tennis ball past his opponent. The height of the tennis ball, in feet, is modeled by the equation h(t) = –0.075t2 + 0.6t + 2.5, where t is the time since the tennis ball was hit, measured in seconds.

Now we are asked:

How long does it take for the ball to reach the ground?

i.e. we have to find the value of t such that height is zero i.e. h(t)=0.

-0.075t2+0.6t+2.5=0

or 0.075t^2-0.6t-2.5=0

i.e. we need to find the roots of the above quadratic equation.

on solving the equation we get two roots as:

t≈ -3.02377 and t≈11.0238

As time can't be negative; hence we will consider the value of t as t≈11.0238.

Hence it takes 11.02 seconds for the ball to reach the ground.

Hence option B is correct (11.02 seconds).

The original price of a coat is $90. It is on sale for 20% off. How much will you pay if you buy the cost during the sale?
ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

72$

Step-by-step explanation

How to insert in a calculator 90-20%= 72

How to take 20% from a price

Divide the original price by 5. <em>18</em>

Subtract this new number from the original one. <em>90 - 18 </em>

The number you calculated is the discounted value. <em>90 - 18 = </em><u><em>72</em></u>

The wavelength of red light in a spectrum is about 0.0000007 meters. Which
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

0.0000007

And if we count the number of zeros before the number 7, we can rewrite the number like this:

7x10^{-7}

We cansolve this problem also counting the number of positions that we need to move the decimal point to the right in order to obtain the first number (7)

And the best option would be:

B. 7 x 10-7

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following number given:

0.0000007

And if we count the number of zeros before the number 7, we can rewrite the number like this:

7x10^{-7}

We cansolve this problem also counting the number of positions that we need to move the decimal point to the right in order to obtain the first number (7)

And the best option would be:

B. 7 x 10-7
