Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, the catch of this question is that they do a very good job of explaining Maria's age in terms of George's age, but they leave George's age in terms of Maria's all up to you.

First start off by doing an expression of what they explicitly give you. Maria's age in terms of George's age.

Let's use variables g, representing George's age and m representing Maria's age

m = 2g + 3

Okay, this is all dandy and all, but they ask us for George's age in terms of Maria's, so we need to isolate for g.

subtract the 3 from both sides, like so:

m - 3 = 2g

then divide 2 from both sides: (remember we're dividing the whole thing)

(m-3)/2 = g

Now we have an expression for George's age in terms of Maria's.

g = (m-3)/2 or g = \frac{m-3}{2}

The answer that gives us this, is C.

Your bank balance is $102.35 and you've just made purchases for $20, $33.33, and $52.80. You then make deposits of $25 and $24.7

It is A because when you add the amount of your purchases and you subtract it from 102.35. You get a negative number. Then you add that negative number to 25 and 24.75.

A road bike has a wheel diameter of 622 mm. What is the circumference of the wheel? Use 3.14 for pi
Ghella [55]

Answer:

Circumference ≅ 195 mm

Step-by-step explanation:

The circumference of a circle is equal to: 2*\pi *radius

Since Diameter = 2*radius we can replace that in the circumference equation giving us:

Circumference = \pi *Diameter

We know Diameter = 622 mm and pi = 3.14 so:

Circumference = \pi *Diameter = 3.14 * 622 mm = 195.308 mm
