Answer: $77

Step-by-step explanation: 77 is the correct answer because the price increased by 77 because 77 is the difference between the two, and how i got 77 was to subtract 140 ( the earlier price) from 217 ( the price that it changed to), i hope you found this helpful...

Atticus wants to buy 2/3 of a square yard of wrapping paper the paper cost $2.40 per yard how much will Atticus spend on wrappin

balu736 [363]

Atticus will spend $1.60 on wrapping paper.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Cost of paper per yard = $2.40

Atticus wants to buy = 2/3

Cost of 2/3 yards of paper = $\frac{2}{3}*2.40$

Cost of 2/3 yards of paper = $\frac{4.80}{3}$

Cost of 2/3 yards of paper = $1.60

Atticus will spend $1.60 on wrapping paper.

Which of the following is the correct classification of ∆mnp if m<m=35° and m<p=47°?

AnnZ [28]

Answer:

D. Obtuse.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that in $\Delta MNP$ $m\angle M=35^o$ and $m\angle P=47^o$ . We are asked to classify our given $\Delta MNP$ .

We can see that angle M and angle P are acute angles as their measure is less than 90 degrees.

Let us find the measure of angle P using angle sum property of triangles, which states that sum of interior angles of a triangle is 180 degrees.

So we can set an equation as:

$m\angle M+m\angle P+m\angle N=180^o$

Upon substituting our given values we will get,

$35^o+47^o+m\angle N=180^o$

$82^o+m\angle N=180^o$

$82^o-82^o+m\angle N=180^o-82^o$

$m\angle N=98^o$

As measure of angle N is 98 degrees, so angle N is an obtuse angle.

Since a triangle having an angle that measures more than 90 degrees is called an obtuse triangle, therefore, $\Delta MNP$ is an obtuse triangle and option D is the correct choice.

Find the missing dimension of the cylinder. round your answer to the nearest whole number

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

11 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the formula:

$V = \pi r^{2} h$

V = 7599, h = 20, π = 3.14

Plugin the numbers and solve for r

$7599=3.14(20)r^{2} \\7599=62.8r^{2} \\7599/62.5=62.8r^{2} /62.8\\121=r^{2} \\\sqrt{121}=\sqrt{r^{2} } \\r=11$

What does PEMDAS mean in math

Dahasolnce [82]

Hey there!

PEMDAS simply means (the OVERALL question answer)

• Parentheses
• Exponents
• Multiplication
• Division
• Addition
• Subtraction

Here’s an example

24 - 4^2 + 2 * 4

= 24 - 16 + 2 * 4

= 24 - 16 + 8

= 8 + 8

= 16

Thus, the answer for that equation is: 16

Often people remember PEMDAS by saying. (So, I’d advise you think of it like that way as well!)

• Please
• Excuse
• My
• Dear
• Aunt
• Sally

Good luck on your assignment & enjoy your day!
