Let m = the total number of medals.
To find the total number of medals we can use either of the clues they gave us.
If Tara's team received 8 medals and that was 1/3 of the medals. That must mean that:
m x 1/3 = 8
What number divided by 3 is 8? Well, that is 24. Thus, the total number of medals is 24.
Note: we can check to see if 1/2 of 24 is 12, the total number of medals Jennifer team received, and it checks out!
I got 21% at selecting a point outside.
Explanation: Since the perimeter is 16sqrt (6), each side must be 4sqrt (6)
This also means that the diameter is 4sqrt (6).
To find the area of a circle, we need to find the radius (2sqrt (6)).
Area of circle is pi × (2sqrt (6))^2 = 24pi or approximately 75.4 units^2
Area of square is 4sqrt (6)^2 = 96
Thus, let's take the area of the circle and subtract that from the area of our square to yield approx. 20.6 units^2
and now divide through by 96 to yield 21%
Factoring, you have
h(t) = -16(t^2 -2 -8) = -16(t -4)(t +2)
The ball hits the ground when h(t) = 0, so
0 = -16(t -4)(t +2)
t = 4 or -2
The positive solution is the one of interest.
It will take 4 seconds for the ball to hit the ground.
Answer:
18
Step-by-step explanation:
when there is a - in front of an expression in parentheses, change the sign of each term in the expression
6+14+(-2)
then calculate the sum or difference
6+14-2= 18
