Answer:

A) 5 notebooks, 10 pencils

Step-by-step explanation:

n = notebook

p = pencil

1.97n + 1.16p = 21.45

A)✅

1.97(5) + 1.16(10) = 21.45

9.85 + 11.6 = 21.45

21.45 = 21.45

B) ❌

1.97(3) + 1.16(12) = 21.45

5.91 + 13.92 = 21.45

19.83 = 21.45

Multiply (3x – 5y)(2x + 3y)
Ghella [55]

Answer:

6x² - xy - 15y²

Step-by-step explanation:

To multiply these two binomials together, we can use FOIL. FOIL stands for:

First: Multiply the first terms of the binomials together.

Outer: Multiply the first term of the first binomial by the second term of the second binomial.

Inner: Multiply the second term of the first binomial by the first term of the second binomial.

Last: Multiply the second (last) terms of the two binomials together.

(3x - 5y)(2x + 3y) = (3x)(2x) + (3x)(3y) + (-5y)(2x) + (-5y)(3y)

= 6x² + 9xy - 10xy - 15y²

= 6x² - xy - 15y²

I hope you find my answer helpful.

Do the side lengths 15,20 and 25 form a right triangle?<br><br><br> PLEASEEEE HELPPPP!!! asap
sveticcg [70]
<h3>Answer: Yes, those sides form a right triangle</h3>

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

Work Shown:

a^2+b^2 = c^2

15^2+20^2 = 25^2

225+400 = 625

625 = 625

Since the last equation is true, this makes the first equation true for those a,b,c values. Therefore, by the pythagorean theorem converse, this is a right triangle.

Side note: c is always the longest side.

What is the geometric mean of 8 and 10?
nekit [7.7K]
If the smaller number is x, then the larger number has to be 20 - x in order for the arithmetic mean to be 10, as their sum must be 20.

If the geometric mean is 8 the product of the numbers has to be 64 and so the larger number is 64/x

Solving 64/x = 20 - x gives the quadratic x^2 -20x +64 = 0 so x = 4 or 16.

The two numbers are 4 and 16.

A park has a length to width ratio of 7:4 and the perimeter of the park is 880 meters. What are the length and width of the park
Schach [20]

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio of length to width = 7 : 4

length = 7x

width = 4x

7x + 4x = 11x

length = 880

880 + 4x = 11x

880 = 11x - 4x

880 = 7x

\frac{880}{7}  = x

125.71 = x

width = 4x

= 4(125.71)

= 502.85
