Answer:

Carla needs to make at least 11 two-pointer shots in the surrent game

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing we can do is to find the difference between the number of points that Carla scored in her first game and her second game.

This will be 46 - 24 = 22 points difference

Carla needs to make a certain number of two-pointers to get at least the same score she had in her previous game.

We can get this number of two-pointers that needed to be made by dividing the difference in scores by 2

i.e number of two-pointer shots = 22/2 =11 shots

Therefore, Carla needs to make at least 11 two-pointer shots to be able to get the same score in her current game.

Answer: angle V = 41 degrees  (choice B)

======================================================

Explanation:

We're told that RS = ST = RT. This means triangle RST has all three sides equal to one another. This triangle is equilateral. Each interior angle is 60 degrees. This is because each angle is y, and y+y+y = 180.

Since each angle of triangle RST is 60 degrees, this means angle STR is 60 degrees.

Let z be the measure of angle UTV. Note how

(angleSTR)+(angleUTV) = 180

60+z = 180

z = 180-60

z = 120

Making angle UTV to be 120 degrees

------------------------------------

Now we can focus on triangle UTV since we have expressions for each interior angle

  • U = 4x-9
  • T = 120
  • V = 5x+6

Add up those angles, set the sum equal to 180, solve for x

U+T+V = 180

(4x-9)+(120)+(5x+6) = 180

9x+117 = 180

9x = 180-117

9x = 63

x = 63/9

x = 7

Use that x value to find the missing angle measures

angle U = 4x-9 = 4*7-9 = 28-9 = 19 degrees

angle V = 5x+6 = 5*7+6 = 35+6 = 41 degrees

Note how

U+T+V = 19+120+41 = 180

which helps confirm our answer.

Use the Euclidean algorithm to calculate gcd(259, 621) and gcd(108, 156).
zvonat [6]

Answer:

The gcd(259, 621) = 1 and gcd(108, 156) = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

The Euclidean algorithm solves the problem:

Given integers a, b, find d = gcd(a,b)

These are the steps of the Euclidean algorithm:

  1. Let a = x, b = y.
  2. Given x, y use the division algorithm to write x=y\cdot q+r where q is quotient and r is the remainder
  3. If r = 0, stop and output y; this is the gcd of a, b.
  4. if r ≠ 0, replace (x, y) by (y,r). Go to step 2.

These are the steps for the division algorithm:

  1. Subtract the divisor from the dividend repeatedly until we get a result that lies between 0 and the divisor
  2. The resulting number is known as the remainder, and the number of times that the divisor is subtracted is called the quotient.

To find the greatest common divisor of 621 and 259 by the Euclidean algorithm you need to:

  • Divide 621 by 259, applying the division algorithm you get 621-259=362\\352 - 259 =103        

next you need to write the expression 621 = 259 \cdot 2+103

  • Divide 259 by 103 to write 259=103\cdot 2 +53
  • Divide 103 by 53 to write 103=53\cdot 1+50
  • Divide 53 by 50 to write 53=50\cdot 1+3
  • Divide 50 by 3 to write 50=3\cdot 16+2
  • Divide 3 by 2 to write 3=2\cdot 1+1
  • Divide 2 by 1 to write 2=1\cdot 2+0

The greatest common divisor of 621 and 259 is 1

To find the greatest common divisor of 156 and 108 by the Euclidean algorithm you need to:

  • Divide 156 by 108 to write 156=108\cdot 1+48
  • Divide 108 by 48 to write 108=48\cdot 2 + 12
  • Divide 48 by 12 to write 48=12\cdot 4 +0

The greatest common divisor of 156 and 108 is 12

What is the height of a triangular base of a paperweight with a volume of 96 cubic inches, length is 8 in and with is 6 inches?
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

4 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Triangular prism formulas</u>

Volume = 0.5 * b * h * length, where b is the length of the base of the triangle, h is the height of the triangle and length is prism length. area = length * (a + b + c) + (2 * base_area) , where a, b, c are sides of the triangle and base_area is the triangular base area.

<u />

<u>How to find the height of a triangle - formulas</u>

area = b * l / 2, where b is a base, l - length.

so l = 2 * area / b/w-width.

<u>Solve</u>

1/2 x 6 x 8 x ? = 96

2 x 96 = 192

192/8 = 24

24/6 = 4

length = 4 inches

on a certain hot summer day 688 people used the public swimming pool. the daily prices are 1.75 for children and 2.00 for sdults
Virty [35]

Answer:

Number of children = x = 330

Number of adults = y = 358

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Number of children = x

Number of adults = y

x + y = 688 (1)

1.75x + 2.00y = 1293.50 (2)

From (1)

x = 688 - y

Substitute x = 688 - y into (2)

1.75x + 2.00y = 1293.50

1.75(688 - y) + 2.00y = 1293.50

1,204 - 1.75y + 2.00y = 1293.50

- 1.75y + 2.00y = 1293.50 - 1,204

0.25y = 89.50

y = 358

Substitute y = 358 into (1)

x + y = 688

x + 358 = 688

x = 688 - 358

x = 330

Number of children = x = 330

Number of adults = y = 358
