Answer: 57.6m

Step-by-step explanation:

That's a lot of words that questions usually use to try to trip us up but not this time so lets pull all relevant information

199.2m= top of off shore oil rig

-9.6 m is the base of the rig

observation deck is 1/6 of the total height

helly pad is 22.8m above the observation deck

First lets try to find the total height of the rig. We can do this by adding the absolute value of the top and base of the oil rig. So 199.2 + 9.6 = 208.8m

So the total height is 208.8m now lets find the observation deck. We know the observaition is 1/6 of the total height which is 208.8m right so lets multiply. 1/6*208.8m= 34.8m

Now we know the observation deck is 34.8m high. Finally we can find the helly pad which is 22.8 m above the observation deck.

Since the observation deck is 34.8m and the helly pad is 22.8 above observation deck (34.8m) all we have to do is add so 22.8+34.8= 57.6m

So we know the total height is 208.8m

The observation deck is 34.8m

And the helly pad is 57.6m

What is a perfect square? Why is <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%5E%7B2%7D%20%2B%208x%20%2B16" id="TexFormula1" title="x^{2}

Answer:

It is a perfect square. Explanation below.

Explanation:

Perfect squares are of the form

(

a

+

b

)

2

=

a

2

+

2

a

b

+

b

2

. In polynomials of x, the a-term is always x.(

(

x

+

c

)

2

=

x

2

+

2

c

x

+

c

2

)

x

2

+

8

x

+

16

is the given trinomial. Notice that the first term and the constant are both perfect squares:

x

2

is the square of x and 16 is the square of 4.

So we find that the first and last terms correspond to our expansion. Now we must check if the middle term,

8

x

is of the form

2

c

x

.

The middle term is twice the constant times x, so it is

2

×

4

×

x

=

8

x

.

Okay, we found out that the trinomial is of the form

(

x

+

c

)

2

, where

x

=

x

and

c

=

4

.

Let us rewrite it as

x

2

+

8

x

+

16

=

(

x

+

4

)

2

. Now we can say it is a perfect square, as it is the square of

(

x

+

4

)

.

Adam and his dad share the cost of the meal in the ratio of 2:3. Adam’s dad pays £52.20. What is the total cost of the meal
Ne4ueva [31]
We have to calculate the total cost of the meal. We know that Adam ( A ) and his dad ( D ) share the cost of the meal in the ratio 2 : 3 and that Adam`s dad pays 52.20 Pounds. So A : D = 2 : 3; A : 52.20 = 2 : 3. Using the cross products, A * 3 = 2 * 52.20; A * 3 = 104.40; A = 104.40 : 3; A = 34.80 Pounds. Finally, A + D = 34.80 + 52.20 = 87.00. Answer: The total cost of the meal is 87 Pounds<span>. </span>
