Answer:

6.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagoras' Theorem (or Pythagorean Theorem) states a²+b²=c², where c is the hypotenuse.

We can use this equation and swap a and b for 6 and 2. This gives 6²+2²=c², which can be expanded to 36+4=c², and further c²=40.

To work out c, we need to square root both sides, leaving c=6.3245553203367586639977870888654, which rounded to 1 decimal place (nearest tenth) is 6.3.

**This content involves Pythagoras' Theorem or The Pythagorean Theorem, which you may wish to revise. I'm always happy to help!

Answer:

6.3

Step-by-step explanation:

6^{2} + 2^{2} = x^{2}

40 = x^{2}

\sqrt{40}  = \sqrt{x^{2} }

x = 6.3

Cody made deposits of $45, $18, and $27 into his checking account. He then wrote checks for $21 and $93. Write an expression to
zysi [14]
<span>C = 45 + 18 + 27 - 21 - 93 C = -24 Let's use the variable C to represent the change in the balance in Cody's checking account. The easiest way to make the expression is to simply apply the additions and subtractions directly. So let's start with C C "Cody made deposits of $45, $18, and $27 into his checking account." C = 45 + 18 + 27 "He then wrote checks for $21 and $93." C = 45 + 18 + 27 - 21 - 93 So the expression to represent the change to Cody's checking account is C = 45 + 18 + 27 - 21 - 93 Now to simplify it. All you need to do is combine terms together. How far you go is up to you. So let's do it. C = 45 + 18 + 27 - 21 - 93 I'll add together all the deposits. C = (45 + 18 + 27) - 21 - 93 C = 90 - 21 - 93 And I'll combine the checks. C = 90 - 114 So now you can tell at a glance that Cody deposited $90 and wrote checks for $114. But we can make it simpler and combine those as well. So C = -24 And this tells you that Cody's checking account balance is now $24 lower than it was before he started making deposits and writing checks.</span>

Factor the binomial: 24mn + 32m *
8_murik_8 [283]
The greatest common multiple is 8m, so this means that you can factor it out to:

=8m(3n+4)
=(8m•3n)+(8m•4)
=(24mn)+(32m)
=24mn+32m

The answer is option 2.

So a department store worker gets paid 325.00 per week plus 4% commission of their total sales if the worker sells 3600 of the m
MAXImum [283]

Answer:The amount of commission made is 144

Step-by-step explanation:

The department store worker gets paid 325.00 per week plus 4% commission of their total sales. This means that the worker's earning is not fixed. It varies with the amount of sales made

if the worker sells 3600 of the merchandise, it means that the worker's sales commission will be 4% of 3600 of the merchandise

Sales commission earned by the store worker = 4/100 × 3600

= 0.04 × 3600 = 144
