Answer:

14.077 feet to the nearest thousandth.

Step-by-step explanation:

First let's work out the multiplier:

6 + 5 + 2 = 13.

61/2 = 30.5

- so the multiplier is 30.5/13 = 2.34615

The longest piece refers to the 6 in the ratio its length

= 6 * 2.34615

= 14.0769 ft.

Answer:

It is 8ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, you just need to set up a ratio.

\frac{3in}{4ft} = \frac{6in}{x}

---------------------------

You can now cross multiply.

6 * 4 =24

24/3 = 8

----------------------------

That concludes that the actual ping pong table is 8ft!

Good Luck!!

Can anyone please help me with this with an explanation
bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

5x+4x−68=34−8x

5x+4x+ −68=34+ −8x

(5x+4x)+(−68)=−8x+34(Combine like terms)

9x+−68=−8x+34

9x−68=−8x+34

Step 2: Add 8x to both sides.

9x −68+ 8x= −8x +34 +8x

17x −68 =34

Step 3: Add 68 to both sides.

17x −68 +68= 34 +68

17x=102

Step 4: Divide both sides by 17.

17x /17=  102/17

                                X=6   > final answer hope i could help :)

Brandon purchased a new guitar in 2012. The value of his guitar, t years after he bought it, can be modeled by the function A(t)
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer: The rate of change in the value of the guitar is modeled by 0.95, which represents a decrease of 5% per year.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to apply an exponential decay function:  

A = P (1 - r) t  

Where:  

p = original price

r = decrease rate (decimal form)  

t= years  

A = price after t years  

Replacing with the values given:  

A(t)=145(0.95)t.

Where

0.95 = 1-r

0.95-1 = r

-0.05 =-r

0.05 =r

Converting to percentage form:

0.05 x 100 = 5%

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
