15.9 would be the answer because that’s rounding

Answer:

x ≈ 15.9

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle

x² + 6² = 17²

x² + 36 = 289 ( subtract 36 from both sides )

x² = 253 ( take the square root of both sides )

x = \sqrt{253} ≈ 15.9 ( to the nearest tenth )

It took 2/3 of an hour to complete her science homework. It took Bethany 3/4 of the amount of time to do her math homework as he
SOVA2 [1]
We know there are 60 minutes in an hour.  To find 2/3 of an hour we divide 60/3 to find 1/3 and multiply by 2 so:
60/3 = 20
20*2 = 40 minutes (which is 2/3 of an hour) to do science

We do the same thing with the 40 minutes.  To find 1/4 of 40 minutes we divide 40 by 4 and then multiply it by 3 to get 3/4 so:

40/4 = 10
10*3 = 30 minutes

Then subtract the times 40-30 = 10 minutes

It took her 10 more minutes to complete her science homework.

Hope that helps

What vaule of x makes th question true? 3x+2(x-5)=50 a. 8 b.9 c.11 d.12
Ainat [17]
Hey Tierra7l, 

Lets solve your equation together step by step. 

3x+2\left(x-5\right)=50 

\mathrm{Expand}\:2\left(x-5\right):\quad 2x-10 

\mathrm{Distribute\:parentheses\:using}:\quad \:a\left(b+c\right)=ab+ac 

                                    a=2,\:b=x,\:c=-5 

2\cdot \:x+2\left(-5\right) 

\mathrm{Apply\:minus-plus\:rules} 

\:\:+\left(-a\right)=-a 

2x-2\cdot \:5 

\mathrm{Multiply\:the\:numbers:}\:2\cdot \:5=10 

2x-10 

3x+2x-10=50 

\mathrm{Add\:similar\:elements:}\:3x+2x=5x 

5x-10=50 

\mathrm{Add\:}10\mathrm{\:to\:both\:sides} 

5x-10+10=50+10 

\mathrm{Simplify} 

5x=60 

\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}5 

\dfrac{5x}{5}=\dfrac{60}{5} 

\mathrm{Simplify} 

x=12 

Hope this helps,

David earns $8.59 an hour. His benefits package is equal to 18 percent of his hourly wages. When you include the value of his be
meriva
A]
Amount of earning per hour=$8.59
Amount of David's benefits=18/100×8.59=:1.5462
Amount that David earn per hour including benefits is given by:
8.59+1.5462=$10.1362

b]Amount that David earns in 35 hour a week will be:
(amount per hour)*(number of hours)
=8.59*35
=$$300.65

C] amount earned by David including benefits will be:
(amount earned in 35 hours)+(total benefits in 35 hours)
total benefits=1.5462×35=$54.117
thus total amount will be:
300.65+54.117
=$354.767
