Answer:
98
Step-by-step explanation:
Mathematically, when we add all the angles of a triangle, we get 180
Thus;
x + 1 + 2x-2+ 3x-5 = 180
6x-6 = 180
6x = 186
x = 186/6
x = 31
so the measure of the biggest angle is 3x -5
= 3(31) + 5 = 93 + 5 = 98
Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
5 is the biggest number you can divide 5 by.
5/5=1
100/5=20
Answer:
"The rate of Hose A is 1 gallon per minute more than the rate of Hose B"
Step-by-step explanation:
Hose A:
60 gallons every 15 minutes means
60/15 = 4 gallons per minute
Hose B:
y = 3x
y is gallons
x is minutes
we put x = 1 and get:
y = 3*1 = 3
That means 3 gallons per minute
Thus,
the correct choice is C), or third option. 4 is 1 greater than 3 so Hose A is 1 gallons per minute more than the rate of Hose B.
Answer:
In order to understand exponential equations with a whole number and a fraction, we have to revisit the definition.
Exponentiation is just repeated multiplication. For instance, if we have 2^3, we can see that 2 * 2 * 2 = 8. The number keeps getting bigger.
Likewise, if we have (1/2)^3, 1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 = 1/8. The number keeps getting smaller. Notice a pattern?
When we have a number greater than 1 as a base in an exponential function, the number keeps growing. This is called exponential growth.
In contrast, whenever we have a number less than 1 as a base (i.e. a fraction), the number keeps getting smaller. This is called exponential decay.
Hope this helps.
