Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

b2 = 5  


Discussion:

A = 1/2 h (b1 + b2) .

Substituting A = 16, h = 4, and b1=3 in the above formula gives:

16 = (1/2) (4)( 3 + b2)    =>         (as (1/2)4 = 2) )

16 = 2 ( 3 + b2)             =>         (divide both sides by 2)

8 = (3 + b2)                   =>         (subtract 3 from both sides)

8-3  = b2                       =>

5     =  b2


Check Area formula:

Does A = 16 = (1/2)(4)(3+5)   ?

Does 16 = (1/2) (4)(8)             ?

Does 16 = (1/2)(32)                ?  Yes it does so our calculation for b2 is correct




Thank you,

MrB

Charlie measured the circle-shaped part of a sun his sister drew on the chalkboard. The circumference of the circle is 75.36 cm.
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

The diameter of circle is 24 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Circumference of circle = 75.36 cm

We have to find the diameter of the circle.

Circumference of circle =

C =2\pi r

where r is the radius of the circle.

Putting values, we get,

75.36 = 2\times 3.14\times r\\\\r = \dfrac{75.36}{2\times 3.14}\\\\r=12

Diameter of circle =

d=2r\\d=2\times 12=24\text{ cm}

Thus, the diameter of circle is 24 cm.

Three years ago, Daniel bought a baseball card for $20. The baseball card gains a value of $10 each year for the next three year
torisob [31]

Answer:

The friend would pay $100

Step-by-step explanation:

The price of the card was $20 when Daniel bought it, it gained a value of $10 every year,

since Daniel bought it 3 years ago we will add $30 to $20 as the value increased by $10/year

so the price becomes $50, but his friend says he'll pay twice the value so,

$50×2= $100

How many times as great as the value of the digit 3 in 47,235 is the value of the digit 3 in 2,438,017
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

10^{3} times

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of 3 in 47,235 is 30 (ignoring the number that follows, 5)

The value of 3 in 2,438,017 is 30,000 (ignoring the numbers that follow)

The value of digit 3 in 2,438,017 is \frac{30,000}{30} = 10^{3} times greater than the value of 3 in 47,235
