Answer:
square root of 26 (sorry couldn't get the symbol)
Step-by-step explanation:
C^2 = A^2 + B^2 (Pythagoras Theorem)
C^2 = 5^2 + 1^2
C^2 = 26
take square root of both sides
C =
Complete question :
A 12-foot by 15-foot patio is increased by placing a stone border around the patio. The width of the border is the same all around the patio.The perimeter of the patio after it is expanded is 74 feet. The equation which represents x, the width of the border is 2[(12+2x)+15+2x)]=74. What is the width of the border?
1) 2 1/2 feet
2) 3 feet
4) 5 feet
5) 8 1/2 feet
Answer:
2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Solving for X in the perimeter equation :
2[(12+2x)+15+2x)]=74
Open the bracket
2[(12 + 2x + 15 + 2x)] = 74
2(27 + 4x) = 74
54 + 8x = 74
8x = 74 - 54
8x = 20
x = 20/8
x = 2.5
Hence, width fo border = 2.5
Answer:
up down down down
Step-by-step explanation:
due to the governments high spending the employment was down because the gov. couldn't afford to pay its workers, so many were laid off and also due to the spending wages were low, and the economy was down because of the little amount of buisness.
The last one is correct because 60+35+35+35=165
55+55+55=165
Answer:
Actually, what you said you have so far is not correct. The 2 correct answers are the 1st one (x + y = 15) and the 5th one (15x + 10y > 180)
Step-by-step explanation:
If tutoring French is x hours and scooping ice cream is y hours and he is going to work 15 hours for sure doing both, then we can add them together to get that x hours + y hours = 15 hours, or put simply: x + y = 15.
Now we are going to throw in the added fun of the money he makes doing each. The thing to realize here is that we can only add like terms. So looking at the equation above, we have x hours of tutoring and y hours of scooping, so if we want to add them, we will add those number of hours together to get the total number of hours he worked, which we know to be 15. The same goes for money. If we add money earned from tutoring to money earned from scooping, we need that to be greater than the money he wants to earn which is 180 at least. Because he wants to earn MORE than $180. we use the ">" sign. Since he earns $15 an hour tutoring, that expression is $15x; since he earns $10 an hour scooping, that expression is $10y. Now add them together (and you CAN because they are both expressions relating dollars to dollars) and set the sum > $180:
$15x + $10y > $180. That's why your answer is not correct. Use mine (with the understanding that you care about why yours is wrong and mine is correct) and you'll be fine.
