Answer:

5 2/3 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

8-2=6 minutes and 5-3=2 inches so it lost 2 inches in 6 minutes. This means it loses an inch every three minutes. Since we have to go back by 2 minutes we will have to figure out how much length we have to add to the candle to figure out how long it was originally by multiplying by 2/3 as 2 inches is 2/3 the required to remove an inch, so 1 inch * 2/3 = 2/3 of an inch. Add that to the length at two minutes and we have 5 2/3 inches as its original size.

Y=1/2+2 in standard form
mina [271]

Answer:

So Y would be 2 1/2, but in standard form it's 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

So basically, you just have to add the numbers together. 2 + 1/2 = 2 1/2. 50 is half of 100, and this is 1/2 we're talking about. So we can change it to 2.5

You're welcome.

Shown is a regular pentagon, find y.
timama [110]

Answer:

54 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Every side of a regular pentagon is same.

So we have an  isosceles triangle. The  correspond angle of y, must equal to y (degree) too.

Also, every inner angle of a regular pentagon is 360/5=72. So we can calculate angle y, by the equation y+y+72=180.

y=54
