Answer:

<h3>2/3 lost is 1/3 kept</h3>

<h3>2/3 of the 1/3 kept is 2/9 lost</h3>

1/3 x - 2/9 x = 4

3/9 x - 2/9 x = 4

1/9 x = 4

x = 36

<h3>First she lost 2/3 of 36, which is 24. She had 12 left. Then she lost 2/3 of 12 which is 8. She had 4 left.</h3>

Hence she started with $36 .

Answer:

A) Ed

Explanation: How i got it was by first looking at what Eric’s weight loss program, I then guessed he lost about the same amount of weight each week (1.5), i then did that times 4 since that’s how many weeks were recorded on the chart which gave me 6. I then looked at the chart again and saw that Ed first started with the weight 205 and by week 4 his weight was 197, I then did 205-197 which equals 8, I then decided that Ed lost more weight.

six friends are going to buy a pizza. Their chices are to biu 2 medium 10-inch diameter pizzas for 7:00 each, or 1 large 14 inch

11111nata11111 [884]

For this question, we want to find out the greatest amount of area of pizza for the least amount of money:

So we have two pizzas with a 10 in. diameter. Let us take one of those pizzas.

The formula for area of a circle is $\pi r ^2$ ; So the area for one of these 10 in. pizzas would be $\pi (5)^2$ or 25 $\pi$ .

We have two of these pizzas, so the total area that we would get with $14 would be 25 $\pi$ *2 or 50 $\pi$ .

For the second case, we have one pizza with a 14 in. diameter.

The area of this pizza will be $\pi (7)^2$ or 49 $\pi$ .

So for $15 we can buy 49 $\pi$ worth of pizza.

The best deal would be to buy the two medium pizzas of 10 inch diameter, because for $14, you get 50 $\pi$ .

A right triangle has a side with length 12 in and a hypotenuse with length 20 in. find the length of the missing leg. (round to

OLEGan [10]

Let the unknown side be "z" inches
Through pythagoras:
${12}^{2} + {z}^{2} = {20}^{2}$
Because the square of the two sides add up to the square of the hypotenuse in a right triangle.

This means that
${z }^{2} = {20}^{2} - {12}^{2}$
${z}^{2} = 400 - 144 = 256$
$z = \sqrt{256} = 16$
So the missing side is 16 inches

Hope this helped

Consider the data set

Serhud [2]

Answer: 3.496

Explanation: You find the mean, which is 57.714. Next, you subtract the mean from each number in the dataset, |55 - 57.714|, |59 - 57.714|, etc. You then add all of those numbers together and divide them by the amount of numbers like you would determining the mean. This gives you 3.496. Also sorry for taking so long to respond I’m on my phone and cannot type as fast as I would on pc.
