The largest frog in the world is the goliath,found in west africa. It can grow to be 12 inches long. The smalest in the world is

denis23 [38]

Answer:

4.8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The largest frog in the world is goliath which is 12 inches long.

The smallest frog is about 2.5 as long as the goliath.

Lets assume the length of smallest frog be "x".

As given, smallest frog is about 2.5 as long as the goliath.

∴ we can form equation as $2.5x= 12\ inches$

Solving the equation to find the value of x

$2.5x= 12$

Dividing both side by 2.5

⇒ $x= \frac{12}{2.5}$

∴ $x= 4.8\ inches$

Hence, the length of smallest frog is 4.8 inches.

b) Your uncle Jim lives in England, where the current exchange rate is 1.64 US dollars for each British pound. Solve for the amo

noname [10]

Since we need your monthly bill we will call it the variable B for now, (Unless you have the bill, if so replace it with the variable)
Multiply 1.64 x B since the exchange rate is different than the US bill,
For example, say your bill is $100 in the U.S.
You do 1.64 x 100 = A monthly bill of $164 if you lived in Britain

What are the exact solutions of x2 − 5x − 1 = 0 using x equals negative b plus or minus the square root of the quantity b square

geniusboy [140]

Answer:

$x=2.5+\frac{\sqrt{29}}{2}\\\\x=2.5-\frac{\sqrt{29}}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

So the question here is asking you to use the quadratic formula which is expressed as: $x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\$

A quadratic can generally be expressed as: $y=ax^2+bx+c$

So using the equation you gave: $0=x^2-5x-1$

We can identify the following values: a=1, b=-5, c=-1

Btw the equation explicitly write "1" as the coefficient of x, but since it's not provided it's implied that it's 1.

So plugging in the known values, we get the following equation:

$x=\frac{5\pm\sqrt{(-5)^2-4(1)(-1)}}{2(1)}\\\\x=\frac{5\pm\sqrt{25+4}}{2}\\\\x=\frac{5\pm\sqrt{29}}{2}\\\\x=2.5+\frac{\sqrt{29}}{2}\\\\x=2.5-\frac{\sqrt{29}}{2}$

The last step just consists of taking the + and - solution, and since it asks for exact solutions you leave the 29 under the radical, and you don't approximate. There is no further simplification that can be done here.

The least common denominator of 1/3, 5/8, and 1/2 is:

andrey2020 [161]

Answer: 24

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to find the common denominator. In the case 24 is the least one because when you multiply 3 by 8, you finally have a common denominator for all three.

If you found this answer helpful, give it a five-star rating and a thanks! It would really mean a lot!
