Answer:

The correct answer is 3x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

It gives you the expression for JM and LM, and it asks for JL. Therefore, if you take away LM from JM, you are left with JL. You must subtract 2x-6 from 5x-8.

∴5x-8-(2x-6)

Do not forget to distribute the negative since you are subtracting, so instead of subtracting 6 from 8, you will be adding 6 to 8 because two negatives make a positive.

The pyramid shown has a square base that is 1212 centimeters on each side. The slant height is 1818 centimeters. What is the sur
S_A_V [24]

Answer : Surface area of pyramid = 4406832 square cm.

Explanation :

Since we have given that

Side of square base = 1212 cm

Slant height of pyramid = 1818 cm

As we know that ,

\text{Surface area of pyramid }=\frac{1}{2}\times perimeter\times \text{ slant height}

\text{ Since, perimeter of square }=4\times side\\=4\times 1212\\=4848 cm

Now,

\text{ Surface area of pyramid }= \frac{1}{2}\times 4848\times 1818\\\\\text{ Surface area of pyramid }=4406832\text{ square cm}

Hence, surface area of pyramid = 4406832 square cm.

Dhanraj spent $204.20 purchasing volleyballs and basketballs.
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

Number of volleyballs bought = 8

Number of basketballs bought = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Total amount spent = $204.20

Let,

x be the number of volleyballs

y be the number of basketballs

According to given statement;

y = x+3     Eqn 1

8.20x+12.60y=204.20     Eqn 2

Putting value of y from Eqn 1 in Eqn 2

8.20x + 12.60(x+3) = 204.20

8.20x + 12.60x + 37.80 = 204.20

20.80x = 204.20 - 37.80

20.80x = 166.40

Dividing both sides by 20.80

\frac{20.80x}{20.80}=\frac{166.40}{20.80}\\x=8

Putting x=8 in Eqn 1

y = 8+3 = 11

Hence,

Number of volleyballs bought = 8

Number of basketballs bought = 11

44.1 = 4.9p what does “p” equal
Talja [164]

Step 1: Flip the equation.

4.9p=44.1

Step 2: Divide both sides by 4.9.

4.9p= 44.1

4.9/4.9 = 44.1/4.9

p=9

Peter, Paul and Mary, whose walking rates are 1 ft/sec, 3 ft/sec and 6 ft/sec, start walking together in the same direction arou
Oksanka [162]

250 seconds because it takes Mary 50 seconds to get around the track (300feet/6ft/sec) and it takes Peter 300 seconds to get around the track (300ft/1ft/sec) so if you subtract the fastest time from the shortest time you get the amount of time that Mary had to wait for Peter to get there, so after 250 sec (300sec-50sec) Peter, Paul, and Mary are reunited.
