Answer:

17.3 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the Pythagorean theorem to solve

a^2 + b^2 = c^2  where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse

10^2 + h^2 = 20^2

100 + h^2 =400

Subtract 100 from each side

h^2 = 400-100

h^2 = 300

Taking the square root of each side

sqrt(h^2) = sqrt(300)

h = 17.32050808

Rounding to the nearest tenth

h = 17.3 ft

The 650 students at Sequoyah High School read a total of 18,996 pages during one month of school. What is the average number of
Elena L [17]
This is the concept of statistics, given that there are 650 students and all of them read a total of 18,996 pages. We are required to get the average number of pages that they all read;
Average, otherwise known as the mean is the calculated 'central' value of a set of numbers;
The formula for mean is given by;
mean=(sum)/(count)
in our case:
sum=18,996
count=650
thus;
mean=18996/650
=29.23
Here we can conclude that the average number of pages read by each student in the High School was 29.23

skelet666 [1.2K]
The store sells a product for 40% more than the what they buy it for.
40% is 0.40 in decimal because all percents are out of 100 (divide by 100)
300×(1+0.40)=$420

System of equations <br> 3x-2y=8<br> -2x+5y=-9<br> x=<br> y=
natka813 [3]

Answer:

2y = 3x - 8

y = 3/2x - 4

Work

-2x + 5(3/2x - 4) = -9

-2x + 15/2x - 20 (+20) = -9 (+20)

-4/2x + 15/2x = 11

11/2x * (2/11) = 11 (2/11)

x = 2

3(2) - 2y = 8

6 (-6) - 2y = 8 (-6)

-2y = 2

y = - 1

final answer:

x = 2

y = -1
