The answer should be 5 or -5
Answer:
108 yards
Step-by-step explanation:
Let circle A be the circle with the 62 yard diameter
Let circle B be the circle whose diameter we are trying to solve for.
- Externally tangent circles are circles which touch each other and share a common external tangent.
- Circle A has a tangent of 62 yards and thus a radius ( half the diameter) of 31 yards.
- The distance between the centers of the 2 circles is 85 yards. If you subtract the radius ( distance from the center of the circle to its circumference) of circle A then we'll only be left with the radius of circle B.
- 85 - 31= 54 yards which is the radius of circle B
- To get the diameter: 54 x 2 = 108 yards
2(-n-3)-7(5+2n)
First, you need to distribute the numbers in front of the parentheses to those in the parentheses. This means you multiply.
2 times -n= -2n
2 times -3= -6
-7 times 5= -35
-7 times 2n= -14n
This leaves you with
-2n -6 -35 -14n
Next, combine like terms.
(-2n) + (-14n)= -16n
(-35) + (-6)= -41
This gives you
-16n-41, which is B in your answer choices.
Hope this makes sense!! :)
Answer:
36 pencils
Step-by-step explanation:
Let h and p represent the number of highlighters and the number of pencils, respectively.
Then h + p = 45, and h = 45 - p.
Tom paid a total of $30 for these supplies, with ($2/highligher)(h) + ($0.333/pencil) adding up to that amount.
substituting 45 - p for h in 2h + 0.333p = 30, we get:
2(45 - p) + 0.333p = 30, or
90 - 2p + 0.333p = 30
Combine the constants: 60 = 2p - 0.333p, or 60 = 1.667p
Then p = 60/1.667 = 35.9928, or 36.
Tom bought 36 pencils for $12, and 45-36, or 9, highlighters for $18, for a total purchase of $30. This shows that these calculations are correct.
You need to add up all the sides of the thing thank you
