Answer:

Vennetta

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of Venetta's paper clip chain = 3 feets 5 inches

Length of Bill's paper clip chain = 39 inches

Converting both Venetta's paper clip chain length to inches only :

1 foot = 12 inches

3 feets = (12 * 3) = 36 inches

Hence,

Length of Venetta's paper clip chain in inches :

(36 + 5) inches = 41 inches

41 inches > 39 inches .

Hence, Venetta has the long clip chain.

A ladder is leaning up against a house. The ladder is 20 feet long and the base of the ladder is 12 feet away from the house. Ho
MrRa [10]

Answer:

16 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the ladder=20 feet

Distance from the base of the ladder to the house = 12 feet

You will notice that a wall is vertical and the ladder makes an angle with the horizontal ground(making it the hypotenuse). This is a right triangle problem.

To find the how far up the house can the ladder can reach, we simply find the third side of the right triangle.

From Pythagoras theorem

Hyp^2=Opp^2+Adj^2\\20^2=12^2+Adj^2\\Adj^2=400-144\\Adj^2=256\\Adj=\sqrt{256}=16

The third side of the right triangle is 16. Therefore the ladder leans 16 feet from the ground.

Estimate the area of a circle with a radius of 21 meters. Use 22/7 for pi. (1 point)
V125BC [204]
A=\pir^{2}

A=(\frac{22}{7})(21^{2})

A=(\frac{22}{7})(441)

A=\frac{22}{7})(\frac{441}{1})

A=\frac{9702}{7}

A=1386 square meters

The answer is B.

The equation 2x^2 + x - 1 = 0 has two solutions. Find an equation of the form ax^2 + bx + c = 0, which solutions....
leonid [27]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the solution to

2x^2 + x -1 =0

x^2+ (1/2)x -(1/2)

are a and b

Hence a + b = -(1/2) ( minus the coefficient of x )

ab = -1/2 (the constant)

A. We want to have an equation where the roots are a +5 and b+5.

Therefore the sum of the roots is (a+5) + (b+5) = a+ b +10 =(-1/2) + 10 =19/2.

The product is (a+5)(b+5) =ab + 5(a+b) + 25 = (-1/2) + 5(-1/2) + 25 = 22.

So the equation is

x^2-(19/2)x + 22 =0

2x^2-19x + 44 =0

B. We want the roots to be 3a and 3b.

Hence (3a) + (3b) = 3(a+b) = 3(-1/2) =-3/2 and

(3a)(3b) = 9(ab) =9(-1/2)=-9/2.

So the equation is

x^2 +(3/2) x -9/2 = 0

2x^2 + 3x -9 =0.
