Answer:

19 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

So, let's make 2 into 6/3, and then add it to 1/3. That gives us 7/3. Now, let's divide 45 by 7. We get 6.43. Let's multiply that by 3. 19.29. Let's round down to the nearest whole number, which is 19. This gives us the answer of 19 miles. 19.29 miles may work as well if you're looking for the answer rounded to the nearest tenth.

19, 45 divided by 7 (for the different parts of the 1/3s) is 6.4. 6.4 x 3 (to make a whole [3/3]) is 19.2 mi

7/10 ÷ 1/5 <br> pls i need help

blondinia [14]

7/10 ÷ 1/5 = 3 1/2 because if you just find the reciprocal of the second number (in this case 1/5) and then simply multiply the two numbers straight across after you find the reciprocal, you will need to convert and simplify as needed, and then you get your answer.

The sum of three consecutive numbers is 267.what is the largest number

iris [78.8K]

Rather than trial and error, you can do this with an equation.

x + x+1 + x+2 = 267 =>
3x+3 = 267
x = 264/3 = 88

So the numbers are 88+89+90. 90 is the largest number.

Find the roots of the polynomial equation.

True [87]

Answer:

3 ± i5

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we're given four sets of possible roots of the given polynomial. Each set consists of two complex quantities and 1 real quantity.

First, we determine whether +4 is a root, then whether -4 is a root. Let's use synthetic division to do that:

-----------------------

4 / 1 -2 10 136

4 8 72

---------------------------

1 2 18 208 Since the remainder is not zero, 4 is not a root.

Eliminate the first two possible answer choices, and assume that -4 is a root.

Let's check this out to be certain:

-----------------------

-4 / 1 -2 10 136

-4 24 -136

---------------------------

1 -6 34 0

Since the rem. is zero, -4 is a root, and the coefficients of the 2nd-degree quotient are 1, -6 and 34.

In other words, a = 1, b = -6 and c = 34.

Let's apply the quadratic rule to find the roots:

6 ± √(36 - 4[1][34] ) 6 ± √ (-100)

x = ------------------------------ = ----------------------- = 3 ± i5

2 2

So the correct answer is the last one of the four given possible answers:

3 ± i5

GEOMETRY! PLEASE SHOW YOUR WORK.

skelet666 [1.2K]

Given:

The base of the given triangle has two part:

Left( left side of the hypotenuse) = 25

Right ( right side of the hypotenuse) = x

The altitude (h) = 60

To find the value of x.

Formula:

By Altitude rule we know that, the altitude of a triangle is mean proportional between the right and left part of the hypotenuse,

$\frac{left}{altitude} =\frac{altitude}{right}$

Now,

Putting,

left = 25, altitude = 60 and right = x we get,

$\frac{25}{60} = \frac{60}{x}$

or, $(25)(x)=(60)(60)$ [ by cross multiplication]

or, $x= \frac{3600}{25}$

or, $x=144$

Hence,

The value of x is 144.
