Answer:

75 newspapers

Step-by-step explanation:

391 is equal to the combination of all the newspapers Nicholas sold over those 5 days. This can be written as an equation:

391 = 86 + 79 + 68 + 83 + x

x represents the number of newspapers Nicholas sold on Thursday.

Now let's solve for x:

First, combine like terms:

391 = 316 + x

now subtract 316 from both sides to isolate x:

391 - 316 = 316 - 316 + x

75 = x

Nicholas sold 75 newspapers on Thursday.

Which choice is more than 11 but less than 12?
kumpel [21]
Let
x--------> the number

we know that
11²=121
12²=144

then
x² must be greater than 121  and less than 144

case a) <span>√115
if x=</span><span>√115
then
 x</span>²=115-------> is not greater than 121

case b) <span>√121 
</span>if x=√121
then
 x²=121-------> is not greater than 121

case c) <span>√136
</span>if x=√136
then
 x²=136-------> is greater than 121 and is less than 144------> is ok

case d) <span>√150
</span>if x=√150
then
 x²=150------> is not less than 144

therefore

the answer is
√136

What is the surface area of the box if it is scaled up by the factor of 10 and the surface area is 16in
algol [13]
If each linear dimension is scaled by a factor of 10, then the area is scaled by a factor of 100. This is because 10^2 = 10*10 = 100. Consider a 3x3 square with area of 9. If we scaled the square by a linear factor of 10 then it's now a 30x30 square with area 900. The ratio of those two areas is 900/9 = 100. This example shows how the area is 100 times larger.

Going back to the problem at hand, we have the initial surface area of 16 square inches. The box is scaled up so that each dimension is 10 times larger, so the new surface area is 100 times what it used to be

New surface area = 100*(old surface area)
new surface area = 100*16
new surface area = 1600

Final Answer: 1600 square inches
