Hi there, the complete question is - <span>You wish to mentally estimate the total cost of items that have the following prices: $1.85, $.98, $3.49, $9.78, and $6.18. Rounding off the items to the nearest half dollar, your estimate of the total cost of these items is?
Add and estimate
</span> 2+1+3.5+10+6, so our estimate is $22.50.
Answer: 16 miles
Explanation:
I believe it would be 16 miles, if he starts off at 6 miles on day one and goes up 1/2 mile every day, he would be up a mile every other day, basically on day 3 he would be at 7 and day 5 at 8 miles, if the pattern continues he would be at 16 miles by day 21.
<span> (3x</span>² <span>+ 8) - (2x</span>² <span>+ 1)
= </span>3x² + 8 - 2x² - 1
= 3x² - 2x² + 8 - 1
= x² + 7
Answer:
Approximately 22.97 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the equation for continuously compounded interest, which uses the exponential base "e":

Where P is the principal (initial amount of the deposit - unknown in our case)
A is the accrued value (value accumulated after interest is compounded), in our case it is not a given value but we know that it triples the original deposit (principal) so we write it as: 3 P (three times the principal)
k is the interest rate : 5% which translates into 0.05
and t is the time in the savings account to triple its value (what we need to find)
The formula becomes:

To solve for "t" we divide both sides of the equation by P (notice it cancels P everywhere), and then to solve for the exponent "t" we use the natural logarithm function:



Answer:
The area of the triangle is 18 square units.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we determine the lengths of segments AB, BC and AC by Pythagorean Theorem:
AB
![AB = \sqrt{(5-2)^{2}+[6-(-1)]^{2}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=AB%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%7B%285-2%29%5E%7B2%7D%2B%5B6-%28-1%29%5D%5E%7B2%7D%7D)

BC


AC
![AC = \sqrt{(-1-2)^{2}+[4-(-1)]^{2}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=AC%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%7B%28-1-2%29%5E%7B2%7D%2B%5B4-%28-1%29%5D%5E%7B2%7D%7D)

Now we determine the area of the triangle by Heron's formula:
(1)
(2)
Where:
- Area of the triangle.
- Semiparameter.
If we know that
,
and
, then the area of the triangle is:


The area of the triangle is 18 square units.
