Answer:

  • 141 records

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the initial number be x

<u>Sold 1/3x, and now has:</u>

  • x - 1/3x = 2/3x

<u>Bought 84 more and now got 178:</u>

  • 2/3x + 84 = 178
  • 2/3x = 94
  • x = 94 ÷ 2/3
  • x = 94 × 3/2
  • x = 141

Jessica had 141 records initially

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

2m/s² ; - 2m/s²

25m ; 50m ; 25m

6.67 m/s²

Step-by-step explanation:

The acceleration and deceleration :

Both rates are the Same from the graph ;

According to scenario described, acceleration = 2m/s²

Deceleration occurred in equal time interval = - 2m/s

Distance covered during each stage:

Stage 1 : area of triangle

0.5 * base * height

0.5 * 5 * 10 =25 m

Stage 2: area of rectangle :

Length * breadth = 5 * 10 = 50 m

Stage 3 : area of triangle

0.5 * base * height

0.5 * 5 * 10 =25 m

Average Velocity :

Total distance / time = (25 + 50 + 25) / 15 = 100/ 15 = 6. 67 m/s

Find the length of the unknown side. Round your answer to the nearest tenth. (4 points) Image of a right triangle with a leg lab
Anika [276]

using pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 =c^2

a^2 +8^2 =14^2

a^2 +64 = 196

subtract 64 from each side

a^2 = 132

take the square root of each side

a^2 = sqrt (132)

a=11.48912529
