Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(b - c)/b * (b+c)/b Notice how the second fraction is inverted and multiplied. That's how you handle a 4 tier fraction. Here's a simpler example

$\frac{\frac{2}{3} }{\frac{4}{5} } = \frac{2}{3} * \frac{5}{4}$

What you get with your problem is

(b^2 - c^2)/b^2

For the square with side length n, the diagonal measures:

$d = \sqrt{2} *n$

<h3>How to get the length of the diagonal?</h3>

The sidelength of the square is n, and we want to get the length of the diagonal d.

Notice that the diagonal is the hypotenuse of a right triangle whose catheti measure n.

Then we can use the Pythagorean theorem, which says that the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the cathetus;

$d^2 = n^2 + n^2\\\\d^2 = 2n^2\\\\d = \sqrt{2n^2} \\\\d = \sqrt{2}*n$

That is the length of the diagonal.

Find y so that (-2, y) is a solution to 3x + 5y=8

podryga [215]

Answer:

y = $\frac{14}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute x = - 2 into the equation and solve for y

3(- 2) + 5y = 8, that is

- 6 + 5y = 8 ( add 6 to both sides )

5y = 14 ( divide both sides by 5 )

y = $\frac{14}{5}$

Elsie would like to take snowboarding lessons at powder mountain. She has saved $550 for lessons and a junior season pass that c

vlabodo [156]

So, she has 550 dollars saved. If the junior season pass costs 315, you subtract that from 550. You should then have 235 dollars. Next, you divide 235 by 45 dollars per lesson, and you should get 5.22. You can't buy half a lesson, so she only has enough for 5 lessons.

In 2011, a train carried 8% more passengers than in 2010. In 2012 , it carried 8% more passengers than in 2011. Find the percent

hjlf

Answer:

there was a 16% increase since 2010 to 2012

Step-by-step explanation:

lets say the train had 100 people on it in 2010 and in 2011 it had an 8% increase which then brings you to 8 plus 100 and you get 108.

Now in 2012 there was an increase 8%, so you will add 8 to your previous answer 108 and receive 116. So now there was 16 more passengers in 2012 than in 2010. Transfer the 16 passengers into 16% and you now have your answer.
