Answer:
a: 162
b: 142
Step-by-step explanation:
a: december 1=2
a: december 2=6
a: december 3 = 6 x 3 = 18
a: december 4 = 18 x 3 =54
a: december 5 = 54 x 3 =162
~ triples the number of newspapers means "x3" ~
so on the last day, 162 newspapers
B: sum up all the newspapers:
2 + 6 + 18 + 54 + 162
= 8 + 18 + 54 + 162
= 26 + 54 + 162
= 80 + 162
= 242 all in total newspapers
Emily drove 3/7 of the total distance and holly drove the rest which explains that holly drove 4/7 of the whole distance.
if 4 parts of the distance equals 24 miles, then 1 part would be 24/4 is 6.
since emily drove 3 parts of the whole distance, it is 6 × 3 = 18 miles.
travelling time of emily = 18/45 = 0.4 hr
travelling time of holly = 24/54 = 0.4 hr
--> total traveling time = 0.8 hr
i hope it is right
Assuming that this is a right triangle, then (50 in)^2 = b^2 + (14 in)^2, according to the Pythagorean Theorem.
Then 196 in^2 + b^2 = 2500 in^2. Solving for b^2:
b^2 = (2500-196) in^2, and so b = +48 inches (answer)
