Answer:

Step 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given work on simplification

(6 and one-half + 2 and three-fourths) minus 1.5 times (4.5 divided by 0.5)

(6 1/2 + 2 3/4) - 1.5 (4.5 ÷ 0.5)

Step 1 9 and one-fourth minus 1.5 times (4.5 divided by 0.5)

9 1/4 - 1.5 (4.5 ÷ 0.5)
This is ok as first step is solving parenthesis

Step 2 7.75 times (4.5 divided by 0.5)

7.75 (4.5 ÷ 0.5)
Incorrect, subtraction should be the last step

Answer: second step.

Step-by-step explanation:

you then have to distribute the answer not subtract 9 1/4 from 1.5

you have to do the parenthesis next

4.5/0.5=45/5=9

then

1.5*9= 13.5

then

9.25-13.5 which I think you are capable of solving

Last year Lenny had an annual earned income of $58,475. He also had passive income of $1,255, and capital gains of $2,350. What

Lelechka [254]

Answer: d. $62,080

Step-by-step explanation:

The capital gain is the profit earned from an investment whereas the passive income is the income generated by very minimal daily efforts.

Given: Annual income earned by Lenny = $\$58,475$

Passive income = $\$1,255$

Capital gain = $\$2,350$

Now, $\text{Total gross income =Annual income+Passive income+Capital gain}$

$=\$58,475+\$1,255+\$2,350=\$62,080$

Hence, Lenny's total gross income for the year = $62,080

An acute triangle has two sides measuring 8 cm and 10 cm . What is the best representation of the possible range of values for t

Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

the right answer is 2 < s< 18

Step-by-step explanation:

The Third side of the triangle must be greater than the difference of the other two sides which is 10 -8= 2 and smaller than the sum of the other two sides of the triangle which is 10+8= 18.

so third side should be greater than 2 and less than 18.

So right answer is 2 < s< 18

Roger and rita each drive at a constant speed between phoenix and san diego. Each driver’s distance for the same section of the

never [62]

Answer:

a)Rita had a 28-mile head start

Step-by-step explanation:

The multiple options have been added in the additional information below the problem statement.

Missing Information:

Since the distance of each driver is not displayed. Let us assume their distances.

Say,

Roger travelled distance = 60 miles

Rita travelled distance = 32 miles

Now as it is given in the problem statement that Roger and Rita both drove at a constant speed between Phoenix and San Diego and they drove "Same Section of the trip" .

Which Means that the distance travelled of both is between Phoenix and San Diego, just their starting points are different but their end point is the same which is San Diego.

As we can see RIta had to cover less miles which means she got the head start, now to calculate how much of a head start she got, we need:

Head Start Rita got = Distance Roger travelled - Distance Rita Travelled

Head Start Rita got = 60 - 32 = 28 miles

So,

Rita got a Head start of 28 miles which is option (a)
