Answer:

biobooks = 204

mathbooks = 68

Step-by-step explanation:

the bio textbooks make up 3 parts

the math textbooks make up 1 part

the denominator therefore is 4

so biobooks = 272 * 3/4

and mathbooks = 272 * 1/4 (272 : 2 : 2)

note that calculating the mathbooks 1st is easier, bc you can then multiply by 3 to get the biobooks.

add both numbers up to proof that the sum is 272

(would really appreciate the brainliest)

Two cubes have surface areas of 72 square feet and 98 square feet. what is the ratio of the volume of the small cube to the volu
Serjik [45]
Let's denote the sides of the small and bigger cubes a and b respectively. Then, we can write that 6a^{2}=72, a=2\sqrt{3} and 6b^{2}=98, b=[tex] \frac{7}{sqrt{3}}. The volume of the smaller cube is 2 sqrt{3} ^{3} =  24 sqrt{3}. The volume of the bigger cube is \frac{7}{sqrt{3}}^{3} = \frac{343}{3sqrt{3}}{. We have to find  \frac{24 sqrt{3}}{frac{343}{3sqrt{3}} = 216/343

A car rental agency charges ​$33 per day to rent a car and ​$11.95 per day for a global positioning system​ (GPS). Customers are
harkovskaia [24]

(a) b = (33+11.95)d + 55.5

(b) The bill for a 5 day rental is $280.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Rent of car per day = $33

Rent of GPS per day = $11.95

Cost of gas = $3.70 per gallon

Cost of 15 gallons = 3.70*15 = $55.5 per tank

a) Write a function rule for the total bill b as a function of the days d the car is rented.

Let,

d be the number of days.

Total bill = (Rent of car per day + Rent of GPS per day )* Number of days + Cost of tank

b = (33+11.95)d + 55.5

b) What is the bill for a 5 day​ rental?

Putting d=5 in above function

b = (33+11.95)*5+55.5\\b=(44.95)*5+55.5\\b=224.75+55.5\\b=280.25

The bill for a 5 day rental is $280.25

Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

1.5y - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

I used the distributive approach and distributed -1/2 to the -3y and 10.

(If you try this and it's incorrect, you may just need to distribute -1/2 to the 10, creating -3y - 5.)
