Answer: $10\frac{5}{8}$ or 10.625

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, note that 17 is the same as 17/1 since 17 divided by 1 is 17. Therefore, start by setting up the problem like this:

$\frac{17}{1} X \frac{5}{8}$

Multiply the numerators together (17 x 5 = 85) and multiply the denominators together (1 x 8 = 8) and make it into one fraction like so:

$\frac{85}{8}$

Convert the improper fraction above to a mixed number to get the answer:

$=10\frac{5}{8}$

What is the x-intercepts of the graph of y = 12x-5x-2

hammer [34]

Y = 12x - 5x - 2

first simplify the equation by subtracting like terms (in this case):

12x - 5x = 7x

y = 7x - 2

Since you are finding the x, you must isolate the x. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.(Note: because there is a equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other)

y = 7x - 2

y (+2) = 7x - 2 (+2)
y + 2 = 7x
(y + 2)/7 = 7x/7

x = (y + 2)/7

x = (y + 2)/7 is your answer

hope this helps

How to use the break apart strategy to find 247+ 358 in words

r-ruslan [8.4K]

247 is equal to 200+40+7.

358 is equal to 300+50+8.

To find the answer, add 200+300=500.
40+50=90
7+8=15

500+90+15=605

The answer is 605.

Triangle AOC intersects a circle with center O. side AO is 10 inches and the diameter of the circle is 12 inches. What is the le

zvonat [6]

Answer:

$AC=8inches$

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that triangle AOC intersects a circle with center O, side AO is 10 inches and the diameter of the circle is 12 inches, thus

OC is the radius of the circle and is equal to $\frac{D}{2}=\frac{12}{2}=6 inches$ .

Now, From ΔAOC, using the Pythagoras theorem, we get

$(OA)^{2}=(OC)^{2}+(AC)^{2}$

⇒ $(10)^{2}=(6)^2+(AC)^2$

⇒ $100=36+(AC)^2$

⇒ $64=(AC)^2$

⇒ $AC=8inches$

There are 15 red, 14 green, and 9 yellow balls in a dark room. What is the minimum number of balls that Alicia needs to take so

Tems11 [23]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1. If you take 12 balls, 9 could be yellow and 3 could be red. We want at least 12 of the same color, so 30 balls isn't a good minimum

2. If you take 30 balls, 9 could be yellow, 10 could be red and 11 could be green. We want at least 12 of the same color, so 30 balls isn't a good minimum.

3. If you take 31 balls, 9 could be yellow, 11 could be red and 11 could be green. We want at least 12 of the same color, so 31 balls isn't a good minimum.

4. If you take 32 balls, 9 could be yellow, 11 could be red and 12 could be green or 9 could be yellow, 12 could be red and 11 could be green or 7 could be yellow, 13 could be red and 12 could be green or 9 could be yellow, 11 could be red and 12 could be green.

We want at least 12 of the same color, and we have it from the different samples of the 4th trial.

So, 32 balls is the minimum number of balls
