6,371.0- 1,737.5 = <span>4,633.5 kilometres.
the approximate difference is 4,633.5 kilometres</span>

The system of inequalities would be:

L+M >= 500 (greater than or equal to)
2L + 0.5M <= 850 (less than or equal to)

The first inequality deals with the total number of balloons. She wants the total to be at least 500, so add the variables and set it greater than or equal to 500.

The second inequality deals with the helium. 2L comes from each latex balloon using 2 ft^3 of helium. 0.5M comes from each Mylar balloon using 0.5 ft^3. Together they can use no more than 85% of the 1000 ft^3 tank; 85% = 0.85; 0.85×1000=850. "No more than" tells us it must be less than or equal to.

michael wittry has been investing inhis roth IRA retirement account for 20 years. Two years ago his account was worth $215,658.

Over [174]

Let's say

a = 215,658

ok... so.. he first lost 1/3 of that

$\bf \textit{\underline{lost} }\frac{1}{3}a\qquad \qquad a-\cfrac{1}{3}a\implies a-\cfrac{a}{3}\implies \cfrac{3a-a}{3}\implies \cfrac{2a}{3}
\\\\\\
\textit{then he \underline{gained} }\frac{1}{2}\textit{ of }\frac{2a}{3}\qquad \qquad \cfrac{2a}{3}+\cfrac{\frac{2a}{3}}{2}\implies \cfrac{\frac{2a}{3}}{\frac{2}{1}}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{2a}{3}+\cfrac{2a}{3}\cdot \cfrac{1}{2}\implies \cfrac{2a}{3}+\cfrac{2a}{6}\implies \cfrac{4a+2a}{6}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{6a}{6}\implies \boxed{a}\implies 215,658$

so, his nickname might just be even steven, because, he ended up with the same original amount after the 1/2 bump.

the members of the gardening group plan to build a walkway through the garden as formed by the IHOP potenuse of each of the four

aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

50.24 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use the pythagorean theorem to find hypotenuse of each of the 4 triangles.

Pythagorean Theorem is $Hypotenuse^2=OneLeg^2+AnotherLeg^2$

For Spinach area, two of the legs are 8 and 6. Solving for hypotenuse:

$hyp^2=6^2+8^2\\hyp^2=100\\hyp=10$

For watermelon area, two of the legs are 12 and 8. Solving for hypotenuse:

$hyp^2=12^2+8^2\\hyp^2=208\\hyp=\sqrt{208}$

in red peppers area, the hypotenuse is already given as 15. But we need to find one leg since that will be the leg of the triangle in tomatoes area. Hypotenuse is 15 and one leg is 12, so the other leg is:

$15^2=12^2+eg^2\\15^2-12^2=leg^2\\leg=9$

So, in tomatoes area, we have one leg 9 and another leg 6. Solving for hypotenuse:

$hyp^2=9^2+6^2\\hyp^2=117\\hyp=\sqrt{117}$

Adding all the four hypotenuses, we get the length of the walkway:

Length of Walkway = $10+\sqrt{208} +15+\sqrt{117}\\ =50.24$ yards

The frequency distribution below represents the rents of 250 randomly selected federally subsidized apartments in Washington D.C

Naily [24]

Answer:

92%

Step-by-step explanation:

The percentage of apartments rented for less than $600 is given by the sum of all of the apartments in the 300 to 400, 400 to 500 and 500 to 600 intervals divided by the total number of apartments sampled (250).

$P(X$

92% of the apartments rented for less than $600.
