Answer:  Box A, 2.777

=======================================================

Explanation:

When using a calculator or long division, you should find that

7/9 = 0.7777...

where the 7s go on forever

So we can say that 7/9 = 0.777 approximately. You could argue that the last '7' would round up to an '8' and we could say 7/9 = 0.778; however, I'll stick to the first value so that it matches with the answer.

Since 7/9 = 0.777, this means 2 & 7/9 = 2 + 7/9 = 2 + 0.777 = 2.777 which is box A.

A car is traveling at 20.0 m/s, and the driver sees a traffic light. turn red. After 0.530 s (the reaction time), the driver app
slava [35]
Before the driver applies the brakes ( with the reaction time ):
d 1 = v0 · t = 20 m/s · 0.53 s = 10.6 m
After that: 
v = v0 - a · t1  
0 = 20 m/s - 7 · t1
7 · t1 = 20
t1 = 2.86 s
d 2 = v 0 · t1 - a · t1² / 2
d 2 = 20 m/s · 2.86 s - 7 m/s² · (2.86 s)²/2 = 57.2 m - 28.6 m = 28.6 m
d = d 1 + d 2 = 10.6 m + 28.6 m = 39.2 m
Answer: the stopping distance of a car is 39.2 m.

Write f(x) / g(x) = 1 / ((x+1)(x-2)).

It's easy to see that x cannot be -1 and 2;
So all real numbers exclude -1 and 2, which matches the second choice.

lilavasa [31]
Use the Pythagorean theorem:

\left(\dfrac{1}{2}x\right)^2+12^2=18^2\\\\\dfrac{1}{4}x^2+144=324\ \ \ |-144\\\\\dfrac{1}{4}x^2=180\ \ \ \ |\cdot4\\\\x^2=720\to x=\sqrt{720}\\\\\boxed{x\approx26.8}
