Answer:

The number of boys who play tennis is 36.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of boys who play tennis is x.

number of boys who play cricket = y

x = 3 y..... (1)  

12 boys plays both cricket and tennis.

According to the question,

x - 12 = y + 1 2

3 y - 12 = y + 12

2 y = 24

y = 12

So, the number of boys who plays tennis is x = 3 x 12 = 36.

What is the distance between points A(-3,4) and B(1,-2)?
SashulF [63]

Answer:

7.211103

Step-by-step explanation:

For:

(X1, Y1) = (-3, 4)

(X2, Y2) = (1, -2)

Distance Equation Solution:

d=(1−(−3))2+(−2−4)2−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−√

d=(4)2+(−6)2−−−−−−−−−−√

d=16+36−−−−−−√

d=5–√2

d=7.211103

    A rectangular prism has a length of 2 1/2 meters, a width of 4 meters, and a height of 2 1/4 meters.
aalyn [17]
First we need to convert our fractions into decimals, it's just a lot easier to work with.
2 1/2 is equal to 2.5
2 1/4 is equal to 2.25
Then we plug our numbers into the formula used to find the volume of a rectangle:
V=L*W*H
Volume equals Length times Width times Height.
V=2.5*4*2.25
V=22.5
22.5 is already in decimal form, or if you'd rather have a mixed number, your answer is 22 \frac{1}{2}
