Answer:

Jim only found 15 of the containers.

Step-by-step explanation:

If his mom hid 875 jelly beans evenly into 25 containers we can easily multiply 25 x 35 = 875, which means there were 35 jelly beans in each container.

Jim only found an amount of 385 jelly beans. To find out how many containers he found, all you have to do is divide 385 by 25 which gives us 15.4.

15.4 rounded to the nearest whole number is 15. So your answer would be that Jim found only 15 out of 25 containers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cos θ =<u> u*v </u>

IuI *IvI

u * v = 7*(-1) + (-2)*2

= -7 - 4

= -11

IuI = $\sqrt{7^{2}+(-2)^{2}}\\$

= $\sqrt{49+4}\\\\$

= $\sqrt{53}$

I vI = $\sqrt{(-1)^{2}+2^{2}}\\$

= $\sqrt{1+4}\\\\$

= $\sqrt{5}\\$

Cos θ = $\frac{-11}{\sqrt{53}*\sqrt{5} } \\\\$

= $\frac{-11}{16.28}\\\\$

Cos θ = -0.68

θ = 132.5°

Given the lengths of sides XY and XZ as shown in triangle XYZ below, what is the length of side YZ?

kolezko [41]

Answer:

YZ = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Length of XZ = 13

Lenght of XY = 5

Lenght of YZ =?

The length of YZ can be obtained by using pythagoras theory since the figure is a right angle triangle. This can be obtained as follow:

XZ² = XY² + YZ²

13² = 5² + YZ²

169 = 25 + YZ²

Collect like terms

169 – 25 = YZ²

144 = YZ²

Take the square root of both side.

YZ = √144

YZ = 12

Therefore, the length of YZ is 12

The equation would be 2x+3 so when you plug it in it's 2(-2)+3 which simplify to -4+3 which is -1

Kenny likes to count his money by tiling it on his table as shown. The diameter of a quarter is 24.26 mm. Find the area of the t

ElenaW [278]

First we have to assume that each quarter touched each other. Hence the area of the table not covered by the coins (A) is equal to the total area of the table (At) minus the total area of the coins (Ac). Coins are circle, so $A = \pi r^{2}$ and r =24.26mm. The area of one coin is then 1848.98mm^2. Hence the equation is A = At - xAc where x is the number of coins.
