1/8+1/6


Options here:

The sum will be close to 1/4

The sum will be close to 1/2

The sum will be close to 1


*Disclaimer* show work

Answers

Answer 1
It's 7/24 so about 0.292
therefore it will be close to 1/4

or you calculate 1/8 = 0.125 and 1/6 = 0.1666 adds up close to 1/4

greg drove 300 miles at a constant speed for 5 hours. the speed limit is 70 miles per hour. was his rate grater than the speed limit?

Answers

Answer:

No.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the rate for how many miles Greg drove for 5 hours, we need to divide 300 by 5:

300 / 5 = 60.

60 miles represents the speed for 1 hour.

60<70.

The inequality indicates that his rate (60 miles per hour) is less than the speed limit.

A t-shirt shop bought a total of 24 t-shirts (t) and hats (h) combined. They bought t-shirts for $12.50 each and hats for $8 each. The store spent a total of $259.50, which system of equations could be used to find the number of hats and t-shirts bought?

Answers

Answer:

12.5t + 8h = 259.5

t + h = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Write one equation to deal with the costs and one equation to deal with the numbers of shirts and hats.

12.5t + 8h = 259.5

t + h = 24

Four interior angles of a pentagon measure 88°, 118°, 132°, and 100°. What is the measure of the fifth interior angle? 82° 92° 102° 112°.

Answers

The measure of the fifth interior angle is 102 degrees.

A polygon is an object with five sides. It is made up of five straight edges and 5 interior angles. The sum of interior angles is 540 degrees.

In order to determine the fifth interior angle, the sum of the four interior angles would be subtracted from  sum of interior angles in a polygon.

Fifth interior angle = 540 - (88 + 132 + 100 + 118)

= 540 - 438

= 102 degrees

A bicycle has a listed price of $588.95 before tax. If the sales tax rate is 8.25% , find the total cost of the bicycle with sales tax included. Round your answer to the nearest cent, as necessary.

Answers

Answer:

$637.54

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost is $588.95 and the tax is 8.25%, which needs to be turned into a decimal by moving the decimal 2 places to the left. .0825. Now multiply 588.95 x .0825 and that gives you the tax: $48.59 after rounding. Now add the tax to the price: 588.95 + 48.59 = $637.54.

Find the length of the second base of a trapezoid with one base measuring 18 feet, a height of 5.3 feet, and an area of 125.4 square feet.​

Answers

Answer:

29.32 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

area of a trapezoid = height/2 * (first base + second base)

125.4 = 5.3 / 2 * (18 + second base)

125.4 = 2.65 * (18 + second base)

We want to solve for the second base. To do this, we can start by isolating the (18+second base) by dividing each side by 2.65

47.32 = 18 + second base

subtract 18 from both sides to solve for the second base

29.32 = second base

Answers

Answer:    3(7a-5)(a-2)

===============================================================

Explanation:

I'll use the variable x in place of 'a'

The expression we need to factor is [tex]21x^2-57x+30[/tex] which is in the form [tex]ax^2+bx+c[/tex]

So,

a = 21b = -57c = 30

We'll plug those three values into the quadratic formula

[tex]x = \frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\\\x = \frac{-(-57)\pm\sqrt{(-57)^2-4(21)(30)}}{2(21)}\\\\x = \frac{57\pm\sqrt{729}}{42}\\\\x = \frac{57\pm27}{42}\\\\x = \frac{57+27}{42} \ \text{ or } \ x = \frac{57-27}{42}\\\\x = \frac{84}{42} \ \text{ or } \ x = \frac{30}{42}\\\\x = 2 \ \text{ or } \ x = \frac{5}{7}\\\\[/tex]

The two roots of [tex]21x^2-57x+30 =0[/tex] are [tex]x = 2 \text{ and } x = \frac{5}{7}[/tex]

The root x = 2 leads to the factor (x-2) after subtracting 2 from both sides.

The root [tex]x = \frac{5}{7}[/tex] leads to the factor (7x-5) after first multiplying both sides by 7, and then subtract 5 from both sides.

So we have this set of steps:

[tex]x = \frac{5}{7}\\\\7x = 5\\\\7x-5=0\\\\[/tex]

The two factors are (x-2) and (7x-5).

This leads to (x-2)(7x-5)

The last step is to replace x with 'a' so that the variables match up.

We arrive at  (a-2)(7a-5)

However, as the next section shows, we have a bit of a problem. Don't worry, it can be easily fixed.

---------------------

Let's expand out that factored expression we found earlier.

[tex](a-2)(7a-5)\\\\b(7a-5)\ \text{ ..... let b = a-2}\\\\7ab - 5b\\\\7a(b) - 5(b)\\\\7a(a-2) - 5(a-2)\ \text{ ..... plug in b = a-2}\\\\7a^2-14a - 5a+10\\\\7a^2-19a+10\\\\[/tex]

That's not good. We should have arrived at the original expression [tex]21a^2-57a+30[/tex]. To fix this discrepancy, we can stick a 3 out front and then notice that:

[tex]3(a-2)(7a-5) = 3(7a^2-19a+10) = 21a^2-57a+30[/tex]

The error has been fixed.

We have the full factorization of 3(a-2)(7a-5)

The order of the factors doesn't matter, so we could have written the answer as 3(7a-5)(a-2). Usually the factor without any variables will be listed first.

Based on the screenshot you posted, if that '7' is locked in place, then the only possible answer is 3(7a-5)(a-2) since you'll have 3 in the first slot, then a ( in the next slot. The other slots are filled out in a similar manner. There are no spaces between any symbol or letter.

Answers

Answer:

AB = 105

Step-by-step explanation:

Since ∠ A and ∠ B  are equal then Δ ABC is isosceles with 2 congruent legs.

AC = BC , substitute values

6x - 7 = 5x + 7 ( subtract 5x from both sides )

x - 7 = 7 ( add 7 to both sides )

x = 14

Then

AB = 7x + 7 = 7(14) + 7 = 98 + 7 = 105
