Think of this as a proportion: 2.4 is to 100, as 34 is to L ("L" for "Long piece.")

Cross multiply to get 2.4 L = 3400, then divide both sides by 2.4 to be left with

L = 3400/2.4, so

L = 1416.666...

So the longer piece of wood is 1,416.66... inches long.

Hope this helps!!:)

Aleks [24]

Answer:

48+12b≥185

Step-by-step explanation:

Inequality: 48+12b≥185

Why? she has already backed 48 cookies so you just need to find how many more she needs to bake. (she doesn't need 185 cookies anymore since she's already baked 48)

You don' t need to solve the question,  

But here is how you do...

12b≥137

b≥11.42 (roughly)

Which of the following points lie in the solution set to the following system of inequalities? (1 point)
sineoko [7]
(1,-10) 
the 10 must be negative

reason why the others dont work:
(1,10) too positive, the other two start negative, no way is it going to be way up here
(10,1) still too high
(-1,10) then again, too high

RideAnS [48]

Answer:

(8,10) is not a solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Cuz it’s not on both inequality shaded part but just one of them and also when we substitute one is true and the other one is false

2x + y _< 8

2(8) + 10 _< 8

18 + 10 _< 8

28 _< 8 false

X + y _> 4

8 + 10 -> 4

18 _> 4 true

If a new college graduate wants a car costing $21,000, how much must be saved annually over the next four years if the funds ear
fgiga [73]
I'm assuming the funds earn 5% yearly?

Call x the amount he saves every year.  The first year's deposit will be multiplied by 1.05 three times, the next will be multiplied by 1.05 twice, the third will be multiplied by 1.05 once, and the fourth will not generate interest (as it will immediately be used to buy the car).

Therefore, x(1.05^3+1.05^2+1.05+1)=21000, so 4.31x=21000.  Dividing by 4.31, we see that x is approximately equal to 4872.
