Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the number of pizzas Matt can buy while still being able to afford a cake set up an inequality. The inequality should look like 84\geq 12x+18  where x is the number of pizzas Matt bought. Then, solve the inequality by first subtracting 18 from both sides, 66\geq 12x. Next, divide both sides by 12, 5.5\geq x. This means that Matt can buy 5 pizzas. At first, it might seem like you should round up; however, if you rounded up at all then Matt could not afford the cake, so you must round down.

Answer:

5 pizzas

Step-by-step explanation:

So first you subtract 18 so that you know that there is at least one cake.

84 - 18 = 66

When you get 66 dollars remaining, you divide it by 12 to see how many you can afford.

66/12 = 5.5

So because you can’t say you have an additonal amount of money, you would actually round down to 5.

So Matt can buy a total of 5 pizzas and 1 cake.

1/2*5 = x

x = 5/2 miles

x = 2 1/2 miles

Help pls ;) <br> Find the geometric mean of 14 and 20
Kipish [7]

Answer:

The geometric mean of 14 and 20 is 16.73.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is required to find the geometric mean of 14 and 20. Let the numbers are :

a = 14 and b = 20

The geometric mean for two numbers is given by :

M=\sqrt{ab}

Plugging the values in above formula as follows :

M=\sqrt{14\times 20}\\\\M=\sqrt{7\times 2\times 5\times 4} \\\\M=16.73

So, the geometric mean of 14 and 20 is 16.73.
