A seagull was flying about sea level looking to catch a fish below sea level. The elevation above sea level was 125 1/2 feet. He

spots a fish that is 45 1/2 feet below sea level.
The seagull stops exactly half way between his location above sea level and the fish’s location below sea level because he realizes he won’t catch it in time. What’s the seagull’s position in feet at the halfway point? Show work.

Answer:

The seagull's position halfway is 85.5 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The seagull is at 125 1/2 feet above the sea level.

The fish is at 45 1/2 feet below the sea level.

The distance between the seagull and fish = seagull's distance above the sea level + fish's distance below the sea level

                                                  = 125 1/2 + 45 1/2

                                                  = \frac{251}{2} + \frac{91}{2}

                                                  = \frac{342}{2}

                                                  = 171

The distance between the seagull and fish is 171 feet.

Since the seagull stops halfway, then;

seagull's position = \frac{171}{2}

                             = 85.5

The seagull's position halfway is 85.5 feet.

Which expression shows the sum of the polynomials with like terms grouped together?
Leto [7]

Answer:

C. (-4x^2)+2xy^2+[10x^2y+(-4x^2y)

Step-by-step explanation:

A. [9-4x2) + (-4x2y) + 10x2y] + 2xy2  : in this polynomial the first term is not a like term, then this is incorrect.

B. 10x2y + 2xy2 + [(-4x2) + (-4x2y)]  : in this polynomial, the terms that are grouped, are not like terms, then is incorrect.

C. (-4x2) + 2xy2 + [10x2y + (-4x2y)]  ; This polynomial is the right answer because the like terms are grouped.

D. [10x2y + 2xy2 + (-4x2y)] + (-4x2): This polynomial is incorrect because one of the terms that are grouped is not a like term.

It takes ten identical pieces to form a circular track for a pair of toy racing cars. If the inside arc of each piece is 3.4 inc
dsp73
 <span>Length of outer track = sum of length of 10 pieces = circumference of the outer circle 


if R is the Radius of outer circle then... 

Circumference of the outer track = 2pi*R 


Similarly the circumference of the inner track (with radius r) = 2pi*r 


length of each outer piece is 3.4 inch more than length of inner piece 

So total outer length is 10*3.4 =34 inches more than the inner length. 


=> Outer Circumference - Inner Circumference = 34 inches 

=> 2pi*R - 2pi*r = 34 

=> 2pi(R -r) = 34 

=> R-r = 34/2pi = 5.41 inches 

=> R-r = Width of the track = 5.41 inches</span>

Solve four square root of six plus eight square root of four and explain whether the answer is rational or irrational.
Inga [223]

Answer:

4\sqrt{6}+16

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression: 4\sqrt{6}+8\sqrt{4}

\sqrt{4}=2\\$Therefore, \\4\sqrt{6}+8\sqrt{4}  =4\sqrt{6}+8*2\\  =16+4\sqrt{6}

We can re-write the answer as:

4\sqrt{6}+16

The answer is irrational because the sum of a rational number and irrational number is an irrational number.

<u>The correct option is B.</u>
