Answer:

There were 140 M&M's in the bag to start.

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: The word "of" is a good indicator of multiplication in word problems.

Let's say x is the number of M&M's in the bag. Then,

21=x*15%

Solve for x by dividing by 15% on both sides

140=x

There were 140 M&M's in the bag to start.

Which number is greater than 5,043

Furkat [3]

I don't know if there was supposed to be an image or something attached, but anything greater than 5,043 would be represented in the inequality

$x > 5,043$ .

This includes every number greater than 5,043, including 5,044, 1,000,000, and everything in between and above.

The city of Orlando’s building a dog park in downtown Orlando dog park will be triangular shaped as shown on the coordinate plan

kiruha [24]

Answer:

Perimeter of the dog park = 15.4 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Coordinates of the vertices of the given triangle are,

P(1, 2), Q(1, 6), R(-4, 2)

Since distance between the two points $(x_1, y_1)$ and $(x_2,y_2)$ is,

d = $\sqrt{(y_2-y_1)^2+(x_2-x_1)^2}$

Length of PQ = $\sqrt{(1-1)^2+(2-6)^2}$

PQ = 4

Length of PR = $\sqrt{(1+4)^2+(2-2)^2}$

PR = 5

Length of QR = $\sqrt{(1+4)^2+(6-2)^2}$

QR = $\sqrt{25+16}$

= $\sqrt{41}$

= 6.4 yards

Therefore, perimeter of the given triangle = PQ + QR + PR

= 4 + 6.4 + 5

= 15.4 yards
