Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If its 2.8/10+3.5 = 2.78

if its 28/10+(3.5)=6.3

If its 2/8 / 10 + 3.5 = 3.525

how?

2/8 (1/4 simplified) divided by 10 = 0.025 (0.25/10)

0.025+3.5=3.525

The volume of a 10 ounce box of cheerios is 258.75in3. the length of the box is 4 inches less than the height and the width is 3

Marina86 [1]

Answer:

Height of the box = 11.5 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Let h be the height of the box.

Assuming the volume of the Box is $258.75\ in^3$ .

Given:

Length = Height - 4 = h - 4

Width = 3 in

We need to find the height of the box.

Solution:

We know that the volume of the box.

$Volume = Length\times height\times width$

Substitute all given value in above formula.

$258.75 = (h-4)\times h\times 3$

Rewrite the equation as:

$258.75 = 3h(h-4)$

$258.75 = 3h^2-12h$

$3h^2-12h-258.75=0$

whole equation divided by 3.

$h^2-4h-86.25=0$

Use quadratic formula with $a = 1, b = -4,c=-86.25$

$h=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{(b)^{2}-4ac}}{2a}$

Put these a, b and c value in above equation.

$h=\frac{-(-4)\pm \sqrt{(-4)^{2}-4(1)(-86.25)}}{2(1)}$

$h=\frac{4\pm \sqrt{16+345}}{2}$

$h=\frac{4\pm \sqrt{361}}{2}$

$h=\frac{4\pm 19}{2}$

For positive sign

$h=\frac{23}{2}$

h = 11.5 in

For negative sign

$h=\frac{-15}{2}$

h = -7.5

We take positive value of h.

Therefore, the height of the box h = 11.5 in

Your next math test is worth 111 points and contains 32 problems. Each problem is worth either 4 points or 3 points. How many 3

Dafna11 [192]

We call x the 4 points-worth problems and y the 3 points-worth problems

You know that x+y = 32

4x+3y = 111

You know that the difference from the x and y is 32 so write:

x = 32-y

Substitute at x the value of 32-y

4(32-y)+3y = 111

128-4y +3y = 111

-4y+3y = 111-128

-y = -17

y = 17

Are -3.9 and -0.99 on the same side or the opposite side of zero ?

MAXImum [283]

Same side. Locate -3.9 on the number line. Then -0.99 is to the right of -3.9, with both numbers being on the same side (that is, on the left side) of zero.
