Answer:

Assuming that the longest blue whale on record  was about 18 scuba divers in length and a scuba diver is 6 feet length, we want to estimate the length of the whale.

Length of the whale = 18*6

You can multiply mentally by  using compensation. Substitute a number for 18 that is easy  to multiply.

20*6 = 120

Now adjust. Subtract 2 groups of 6, or 12.

120 - 12 = 108

and that is the length of the whale in feet

Solve the system of linear equations.
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

1. No solution

2. Infinite solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

1. To solve the system, set the equations equal to each other and solve for x.

2x - 5 = 2x + 7

-5 = 7

This is a false statement. This means there is no solution.

2. To solve the system, graph each equation.

y = -3/4 x - 5/2 has a y-intercept -5/2 and slope -3/4.

3x + 4y = -10 converts to y = -3/4x -5/2.

This graphs as the exact same line. This system has infinite solutions.

Someone please help me on this question ?:)
katrin2010 [14]

Answer: The TV is 48 inches wide.

Step-by-step explanation: To find the solution to this equation we must use the Pythagorean theorem. The Py. Theo. is basically the formula :

a^2 + b^2 = c^2    You say this as "A squared plus b squared equals c squared"

To use this formula you must plug in the given values of a and b, to find c. A and b represent the two bases of the triangle, while c is the hypotenuse. In this equation we already have the value of c and a. We need to find b, but in order to do that we use a different formula. We use : c^2 - a^2 = b^2

See :

52^2 - 20^2 = b^2       *The ^2 means "to the power of" aka an exponent*

2704 - 400 = b^2     *When dealing with ^2, all you do is multiply the number by itself*

2304 = b^2      *Next, we find the square root of our current number.*

48 = b    

*Another way to solve this equation is to memorize all the Pythagorean Triples. With that knowledge, you wont even need to use the formula because you will already know all three values. I hope this helped you understand :)
