Answer:
a) x = 260
b) g = 218
c) z = 30
d) h = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
a) 
Predict a number; let's say x = 225

Too low; try with a higher number; let's say x = 270

Too high, we're closer.
x = 260

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
b) 
let's say g = 230

Too high. Try g = 221

We're almost there. Let's try with g = 218

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
c) 
Let's try with z = 15

Too low; try a higher number. z = 30

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
d) 
Let's try with h = 6

Too high; let's try with h = 5

Answer:
Miriam walks for 1.8 miles and jogs for 0.9 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
The path for jogging is 2.7 miles.
One lap of the path, that is 2.7 miles, is completed by Miriam by jogging part and walking part.
Let the jogging part be x miles.
It is given she jogs half the distance she walks , therefore we can say that she walks for 2x miles.
So we can say that 2x + x = 2.7 miles ⇒ 3x = 2.7 miles
⇒ x = 0.9 miles.
Therefore Miriam walks for 1.8 miles and jogs for 0.9 miles.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The lateral area that Rachel needs to cover is 21 inches squared. You find this by first finding the area of one triangular side. To do this, you must half the base of one side, so it makes 2, and multiply it by the height, which gets you to 7. Then, you must half this, as the formula for the area of a triangle states, and then multiply this by two as you at first found the area of only HALF the triangle. This should still get you to 7. Now, there are three lateral sides, not including the base, so you must multiply 7 by 3. This gets you 21.
