Answer:

9.48*

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a right triangle. The formula for solving the Hypotenuse, or the longest side of the right triangle is A^2 + B^2 = C^2. If we put the numbers from the problem into the formula this is what we get :

3^2 + 9^2 = C^2

9 + 81 = C^2

90 = C^2

9.48 = C

* This is rounded, the exact number is closer to 9.486832980505138. Your class should tell you what to round to.

El perímetro de un rectángulo es 28cm, uno de los lados es 6cm más que el otro lado. Hallar el mayor lado del rectángulo.
son4ous [18]

Answer: El mayor lado del rectangulo tiene 10cm

Step-by-step explanation:

El perímetro de un rectángulo puede escribirse como:

P = 2*L + 2*A

Donde L es el largo y A es el ancho.

Sabemos que uno de los lados es 6cm mas largo que el otro, entonces podemos escribir:

L = A + 6cm.

P = 28cm = 2*L + 2*A

podemos reemplazar la primera ecuación en la segunda:

28cm = 2*(A + 6cm) + 2*A

28cm =  12cm + 4*A

28cm - 12cm = 4*A

16cm/4 = A

4cm = A.

Entonces el ancho es 4 cm, y el largo es L = 4cm + 6cm = 10cm

Answer:

y=448-28x

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of miles.

We have been given that Sully's car has an average fuel economy of 28 miles per gallon. The capacity of the fuel tank is 16 gallons.

Let us find the number of miles that Sully can drive with 16 gallons.

\text{Number of miles Sully can drive}=\text{16 gallons}\times \frac{\text{28 miles}}{\text{gallon}}  

\text{Number of miles Sully can drive}=\text{16}\times \text{28 miles}  

\text{Number of miles Sully can drive}=448\text{ miles}  

This means that initially Sully's car has can drive 448 miles, so at x equals 0, y will be 448.

As the car consumes 1 gallon for each 28 miles driven, so the gallons of fuel consumed in traveling x miles will be 28x. As each gallon of fuel will decrease with each 28 miles traveled, so slope of our function will be -28.

Upon substituting slope and y-intercept in slope-intercept form (y=mx+b), we will get our function as:

y=448-28x

Therefore, our required function will be: y=448-28x.

Jake scored 17 out of 25 points on a math quiz. He then scored 16 out of 20 points on a spelling quiz. On which quiz did Jake sc
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

Jake scored more on the spelling quiz. 80% is more than 68% so therefore he scored more on the quiz. To find 80% and 68%, you can use a percent of proportion or divide and multiply by 100.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the percent of a score, you divide.

17/25 (division) = 0.68

0.68 is a decimal so to make it a percent you multiply by 100 = 68%

Or you can do it with fractions:

17/25 = ?/100: 68

16/20 = 0.8

Again, 0.8 times 100 = 80%

Or you can do it with fractions:

16/20 = ?/100: 80

He scored more on the spelling quiz, I hope this helps (justification on the answer).
