Lana draws a triangle( LMN) on the coordinate plane. What is the perimeter of the triangle( LMN)? Round to the nearest unit.

lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

The answer is "25".

Step-by-step explanation:

Please find the graph in the attachment.

$Longest \ side= 12$

Calculating the triangle two other sides:

$=\sqrt{3^2+6^2}\\\\=(9+36)\\\\=45$

let

$\to \sqrt{45}= 6.7.\\\\\to 6.7\times 2=13.4\\\\\to 13.4+12=25.4 \approx 25$

Jenny is selling chocolate bars it for each bar she sells she makes two dollars profit she wants to use The money she earns I’m

andre [41]

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Jenny makes a profit of $2 for each bar of chocolate that she sells, if she sells a total of 500 chocolate bars, her profit would be:

Profit for 500 chocolate bars = profit for each chocolate bar * 500 bars

Profit for 500 chocolate bars = $2 per bar * 500 bars

Profit for 500 chocolate bars = $1000

Also she want to buy a laptop worth $998. This would be possible after selling 500 bars because $1000 > $998. After buying the laptop she would have $2 remaining ($1000 - $998)

4/5 divided by 1/3 plus 1/5 minus 3/5

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

$\frac{\frac{4}{5}}{\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{5}-\frac{3}{5}}=-12$

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the expression

$\frac{\frac{4}{5}}{\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{5}-\frac{3}{5}}$

Solution Steps:

$\frac{\frac{4}{5}}{\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{5}-\frac{3}{5}}$

as

$\mathrm{Combine\:the\:fractions\:}\frac{1}{5}-\frac{3}{5}:\quad -\frac{2}{5}$

so

$=\frac{\frac{4}{5}}{\frac{1}{3}-\frac{2}{5}}$

$\mathrm{Apply\:the\:fraction\:rule}:\quad \frac{\frac{b}{c}}{a}=\frac{b}{c\:\cdot \:a}$

$=\frac{4}{5\left(\frac{1}{3}-\frac{2}{5}\right)}$

join $\frac{1}{3}-\frac{2}{5}:\quad -\frac{1}{15}$

so

$=\frac{4}{5\left(-\frac{1}{15}\right)}$

$\mathrm{Remove\:parentheses}:\quad \left(-a\right)=-a$

$=\frac{4}{-5\cdot \frac{1}{15}}$

$\mathrm{Apply\:the\:fraction\:rule}:\quad \frac{a}{-b}=-\frac{a}{b}$

$=-\frac{4}{5\cdot \frac{1}{15}}$

$\mathrm{Multiply\:}5\cdot \frac{1}{15}\::\quad \frac{1}{3}$

so

$=-\frac{4}{\frac{1}{3}}$

$\mathrm{Simplify}\:\frac{4}{\frac{1}{3}}:\quad \frac{12}{1}$

so

$=-\frac{12}{1}$

$\mathrm{Apply\:rule}\:\frac{a}{1}=a$

$=-12$

Therefore

$\frac{\frac{4}{5}}{\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{5}-\frac{3}{5}}=-12$

Factor to find the zeros of the function:

enyata [817]

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 8x² + 8x - 96

y = 8(x² + x - 12)

y = 8(x + 4)(x - 3)

When y = 0, 8(x + 4)(x - 3) = 0.

=> x = -4 or x = 3. (B)

Which ordered pair represents the y-intercept of the graph of the equation y = -3x - 9?

german

The y-intercept is the point where the graph crosses the y-axis. It is found by setting x=0. For your equation, that makes the x-term vanish and only the constant remains. The ordered pair is ...
(x, y) = (0, -9)
