Answer:

3x + 2 ≤ 53

Step-by-step explanation:

"2 more than" means that there will be a + 2 in the equation. "3 times a number" means that 3 is multiplied by an unknown number which can be represented by a variable such as x. "At most" means less than or equal to, since the number cannot be greater than.

So generally, you might want to write the equation as 2 + 3x ≤ 53, but 2 + 3x is not in y = mx + b form. Basically, you need to write it as 3x + 2 ≤ 53 because that's how math works.

I'll go slow:

$2\sqrt 7 - \sqrt{28}$

$=2 \sqrt 7 - \sqrt{4} \cdot \sqrt{7}$

$=2 \sqrt7 - 2 \sqrt 7$

$=0$

Answer: B rational and equal to 0.

10•4=40. 40 is the perimeter of the square. To find the perimeter of the semicircle use the circle perimeter (circumference) formula and divide that answer by two. This would be pi•10. You get 31.4. Then divide by 2 so it’s 15.7. Finally add 15.7 and 40. Hope this helps... sorry it’s such a long answer
