It is 65 miles because 3 times 20 is 60, a fourth of 20 is 5, so you add them together and get 65 miles

The formula for finding the area of a rug: $A = s^2$

Plugging in the values we know, we can solve for s.

$79 = s^2$

Take the square root of both sides.

$\sqrt{79} = s$

$\sqrt{79}$ is approximately equal to 8.89

So, 8.89 feet is the answer.

How can I solve ¾ - (-5/12)?

Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

$1 \frac{1}{6}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{3}{4}+ \frac{5}{12} =?\\$

The fractions have unlike denominators. First, find the Least Common Denominator and rewrite the fractions with the common denominator.

$(\frac{3}{4}$ × $\frac{3}{3} )$ + $(\frac{5}{12}$ × $\frac{1}{1})=?$

Complete the multiplication and the equation becomes

$\frac{9}{12} + \frac{5}{12}$

The two fractions now have like denominators so you can add the numerators.

$\frac{9+5}{12} = \frac{14}{12}$

This fraction can be reduced by dividing both the numerator and denominator by the Greatest Common Factor of 14 and 12 using

GCF(14,12) = 2

14÷2 / 12÷2 =7/6

The fraction

7/6

is the same as

7÷6

Convert to a mixed number using

long division for 7 ÷ 6 = 1R1, so

7/6= $1 \frac{1}{6}$

Therefore:

3/4 − (−5/12) = $1 \frac{1}{6}$

Solution by Formulas

Apply the fractions formula for subtraction, to

3/4 − (−5/12)

and solve

(3×12) − (−5×4) 4×12

=3/6− (−20/48)

=56/48

Reduce by dividing both the numerator and denominator by the Greatest Common Factor GCF( 56,48) = 8

56÷8 / 48÷8 =7/6

Convert to a mixed number using

long division for 7 ÷ 6 = 1R1, so

7/6= $1 \frac{1}{6}$

Therefore:

3/4 − (-5/12) = $1 \frac{1}{6}$

Use the table to write a quadratic function in vertex form. Then rewrite the function in standard form.

Kisachek [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph decreases at first, then changes direction at (2, 5).

y = a(x-2)^2 + 5

Plug in (1,11) and solve for a:

11 = a(1-2)^2 + 5

a = 6

Equation in vertex form:

y = 6(x-2)^2 + 5
