Answer: choice a

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up your variables. For this question lets use x, y, and z.

the equations will be . .

x + y + z = 165

x = 2y - 65

z = y -10

If we now substitude the equations for x and z with the first equation we cans solve for y. Hence the equation will be  . . .

2y - 65 + y + y -10 = 165

y = 60

then substitude the equations for x and z with y.

your answer should match choice a.

Helen has 48 cubic inches of clay to make a solid square right pyramid with a base edge measuring 6 inches. Which is the slant h
Nikitich [7]

Answer: 5 inches


Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Volume of clay = 48 cubic inches

If we make a solid square right pyramid with a base edge a= 6 inches.

Then its base area = a^2=6^2=36\ inches^2

we know that volume of square right pyramid=\frac{1}{3}\times\ a^2h

Therefore, volume of square right pyramid made by all of clay=\frac{1}{3}\times\ a^2h=48 cubic inches

\Rightarrow\frac{1}{3}\times\ (36)\times\ h=48\\\Rightarrow12h=48\\\Rightarrow\ h=4\ inches.....\text{[Divide 12 on both sides]}

Now, slant height l=\sqrt{(\frac{a}{2})^2+h^2}

\\\Rightarrow\ l=\sqrt{3^2+4^2}\\\Rightarrow\ l=\sqrt{9+16}\\\rightarrow\ l=\sqrt{25}\\\Rightarrow\ l=5

The slant height of the pyramid if Helen uses all the clay=5 inches

Solve for x.
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

x = 2.5 or -0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we are to use completing the square method to solve for the values of x

Firstly, we divide through by 4

= x^2 -7/4x -2 = 0

Now, we move the two term to the right hand side

x^2 -7/4x = 2

Now, we divide the coefficient of x by 2 and square it;

That would be;

(-7/4 * 1/2)^2 = 49/64

we now add this value to both sides of the equation

x^2 -7/4x + 49/64 = 2 + 49/64

The right hand side can be rewritten as;

(x-7/8)^2 = 177/64

taking the square root of both sides

x-7/8 = √(177/64)

x = 7/8 ± √(177/64)

x = 7/8 + √(177/74) or 7/8 - √(177/64)

= x = 2.53802 or -0.788017

Which to the nearest tenth is

x = 2.5 or -0.8
