Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

It should say a "highway bridge." No bride should be anchored to the ground.

x² = 1.5² + 6.8² = 48.49

x = √48.49 ≅ 7 units

Susie scored 85, 84,and 78 on three of the four math tests. if her average score for the four tests was 86. what was her score o

nata0808 [166]

(85 + 84 + 78 + x) / 4 = 86
(247 + x) / 4 = 86
247 + x = 86 * 4
247 + x = 344
x = 344 - 247
x = 97 <=== her score was 97

Answer:

68.8 sq. inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangular surfaces have sides 2 in by 3 in by 4 in.

So, half perimeter, s = $\frac{2 + 3 + 4}{2} = 4.5$

So, the area of the triangular face is $\sqrt{s(s - 4)(s - 2)(s - 3)} = \sqrt{4.5 \times 0.5 \times 2.5 \times 1.5} = 2.9$ sq. inches.

Now, the total surface area of the right triangular prism will be (2.9 × 2) + 7(2 + 3 + 4) = 68.8 sq. inches. (Answer)

Find the new price after the markdown given. Round to the nearest cent if necessary. $5,250 marked down 15%

PIT_PIT [208]

Marked down 15% means the new price would be 85% of the original price ( 100%-15% - 85%)

Multiply the original price by 85%:

5250 x 0.85 = 4462.50

The new price is $4,462.50

The steps below show the incomplete solution to find the value of m for the equation 5m − 2m + 4 = −1 + 12: Step 1: 5m − 2m + 3

Delicious77 [7]

Given:

Consider the equation is:

$5m-2m+3=-1+12$

Some steps of the solution are given.

To find:

The next step of the solution.

Solution:

Step 1: The given equation is:

$5m-2m+3=-1+12$

Step 2: Simplifying right hand side.

$5m-2m+3=11$

Step 3: Simplifying left hand side.

$3m+3=11$

These steps are already given. So, the next step is:

Step 4: Subtracting 3 from both sides.

$3m=8$

Therefore, the correct option is (b).
