Answer: Lonnie’s Jump

Step-by-step explanation:

         (They just <em>had</em> to give three names that all started with L.)

         Since Lenny's jump is ⅔ times the length of Lainey’s, we can tell that Lenny's jump won't be the longest because it is already smaller than Lainey's.

         Since Lenny is now out of the picture, let us look at Lonnie and Lainey. Lonnie’s jump is 1 ⅓ times the length of Lainey’s. Since Lonnie's jump is longer than Laniey's, Lonnie's jump is the longest jump.

X+y=5<br> x×y=6<br> Solve simultaneously with steps
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

(3, 2), (2, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = 5

xy = 6

Solve the first equation for x.

x = 5 - y

Substitute 5 - y for x in the second equation.

xy = 6

(5 - y)y = 6

5y - y² = 6

y² - 5y + 6 = 0

Factor.

(y - 2)(y - 3) = 0

y - 2 = 0  or y - 3 = 0

y = 2  or y = 3

Now substitute 2 for y in the first equation and solve for x.

x + y = 5

x + 2 = 5

x = 3

One solution is x = 3; y = 2, or (3, 2).

Now substitute 3 for y in the first equation and solve for x.

x + y = 5

x + 3 = 5

x = 2

Another solution is x = 2; y = 3, or (3, 2).

Answer: (3, 2), (2, 3)

)The histogram shows the number of gold medals won by different numbers of students at an art competition. Which of the followin
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

Eight students won 6, 7, or 8 gold medals.

Step-by-step explanation:

We see that the third bin is labelled 6 - 8. Since this is on the horizontal, or x, axis, this means that the students in this "bin" have won 6 - 8 medals, which is the same as saying winning 6, 7, or 8 medals.

Because this "bin" goes to 8, that means that there are 8 students who earned this many medals.

Thus, the answer is D.

Hope this helps!

The largest possible circle is cut out of a square whose side length is 8 feet. What will be the approximate area, in square fee
valentina_108 [34]
<h3>Therefore the area of remaining board  =13.76 square feet</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given , The length of side of the square is 8 feet.

Since a circle is inscribed in the square. Then the diameter of the circle is equal to the length of side of the square .

Therefore the diameter of the circle is = 8 feet.

Radius of the circle is(r) = \frac{8}{2} feet = 4 feet

The area of the circle is= 3.14 r²

                                       = 3.14 × 4² square feet

                                      = 50.24 square feet

The area of the square  is = side × side

                                          = 8×6 square feet

                                          =64 square feet

Therefore the area of remaining board = (64- 50.24)square feet

                                                                 =13.76 square feet
