9514 1404 393

Answer:

  99, 101, 103

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the smallest. Then the sum of the first two is (x+x+2) and the third is x+4. The problem statement tells us the relation ...

  5(2x +2) -(x +4) = x +798

  10x +10 -x -4 = x +798

  8x = 792

  x = 99

The integers are 99, 101, 103.

__

<em>Check</em>

  5(99 +101) -103 = 99 +798

  897 = 897 . . . . answer checks OK

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]
To answer this question correctly, first we must find out how much lou pays for health and disability insurance for a year total, then divide that number by 12, for each month of the year to find out how much he pays monthly.

WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

She rode 17.4 miles in 1 hour

Step-by-step explanation:

A cyclist rode for 3.5 hours and completed a distance of 60.9 miles. If she kept the same average speed for each hour, how far did she ride in 1 hour?

Part A Estimate the quotient. Include an equation to show your work. Explain your thinking.?

The quotient is the average speed and this is calculated as:

Speed = Distance(miles)/Time(hours)

Where speed = quotient

Distance = Dividend

Time = Divisor

Speed = 60.9 miles/3.5 hours

= 17.4 miles/hour

Part B Find the exact distance she rode in 1 hour by completing the division. PLEASE HELP!

If :

3.5 hours = 60.9 miles

1 hour = x miles

Cross Multiply =

3.5x = 60.9 miles

x = 60.9/3.5

x = 17.4 miles

Hence, she rode 17.4 miles in 1 hour

A cheerleading squad consists of ten cheerleaders of ten different heights. How many ways are there for the cheerleaders to line
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

11340

Step-by-step explanation:

We have 10 cheerleaders of ten different heights. There are two rows each having 5 positions so that five cheerleaders occupy the first row that have height less than the five cheerleaders who occupied the second row.

Therefore, Out of ten cheerleaders, two cheerleaders will be selected out of which the tallest one will occupy the position in the upper row and the second one will occupy in the lower row, therefore these two positions will be occupied in 10C_{2} ways. Now, we are left with 8 cheerleaders and following the same path, the next two positions will also be occupied in 8C_{2}ways, similarly, following the same path, the number of ways the cheerleaders will occupy the position will be: 10C_{2}×8C_{2}×6C_{2}×4C_{2}×2C_{2}
