Show one way to count from $82 to $512
Sedaia [141]
<span><u><em>First way:</em></u>
The easiest and simplest way is to <u>count by 1</u> starting from 82 till you reach 512.
<u>This will go as follows:</u>
82, 83, 84, 85, ........... , 510, 511, 512

<u><em>Second way:</em></u>
We can note that the two given numbers are even numbers. This means that the two numbers are divisible by 2.
Therefore, we can <u>count by 2</u> starting from 82 till we reach 512.
<u>This will go as follows:</u>
82, 84, 86, 88, ................... , 508, 510, 512

<u><em>Third way:</em></u>
We can note that the units digit in both numbers is the same (the digit is 2). This means that we can count from 82 till 512 by <u>adding 10 each time</u>.
<u>This will go as follows:</u>
82, 92, 102, 112, ......................, 492, 502, 512

Hope this helps :)</span>

A convex lens has a diameter of 30 mm and a depth of 5 mm at the center. How far from the vertex is the focus?
natima [27]
The formula for determining the distance of the focus from the vertex is as follows,

     f = x² / 4a

where f is focus, x is the radius (half the value of diameter), and a is the depth. Substituting the known values to the given equation,

   f = (30/2 mm)² / (4)(5 mm)

    f = 11.25 mm

<em>ANSWER: 11.25 mm</em>

A large city in the ancient world was square-shaped. measured in miles, its area numerically exceeded its perimeter by about 132
melisa1 [442]
Area = perimeter + 132.  

Let  each side of the city be x miles long, then:-

x^2 = 4x  + 132
x^2 - 4x - 132 = 0

x  =  [-(-4) +/- sqrt((-4)^2 - 4 * 1 *-132)] / 2

x = 13.66, -9.66   We ignore the negative

So the city  has dimension of 13.66 * 13.66

13.7 * 13.7   to nearest 10th

The answer would be B) 5.90x > 236
This is because Jay needs at least 236 therefore the money he earns from working at the ice cream parlor would need to be higher than 236.

6 tractors take 10days to collect the harvest. How long would it take 18 tractors to do the same amount of work?
Nutka1998 [239]
This is a question of proportionality. However, it is not direct proportionality as it is expected that as the number of tractors increases, the work is finished faster as opposed to fewer number of tractors. This is referred to as inverse proportionality.

Therefore;
6 tractors ----- 10 days
18 tractors --- x days

Then,
x = (6*10)/18 = 10/3 days = 3 days, and 8 hours.

This means that 18 tractors will take 3 days and 8 hours to collect the same harvest.
