Answer:

The U.S. tax code has 20,000 pages.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of pages in US tax code be = T

Let the umber of pages in King James Bible be = B

Given is - The number of pages in the U.S. tax code exceeds the number of pages in the King James Bible by 18,528.

In simpler language it means US tax code has 18528 ore pages than Bible.

In equation form, this is written as :

T=B+18528      ..........(1)

The combined number of pages in the tax code and the Bible is 21,472.

T+B=21472       ......... (2)

Now, substituting the value of T from equation (1) in equation (2)

B+18528+B=21472

=> 2B+18528=21472

=> 2B=2944

=> B=1472   (Bible pages)

And T = 1472+18528 = 20,000

Therefore, the U.S. tax code has 20,000 pages.

Let the pages in U.S. Tax code be x pages while those in King James Bible be y pages.

From the information give,
x= y+18,528 => y=x-18,528
x+y = 21,472 => x+(x-18,528) = 21,472 => x+x-18,528 = 21,472 => 2x= 18,528+21,472 => 2x = 40,000 => x=40,000/2 = 20,000 pages

Therefore, U.S. tax code has 20,000 pages.

A rectangular prism is 3 units high, 2 units wide, and 5 units long. What is its surface area
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

62 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface area of a rectangular prism = 2 ( wl + hl + hw)

Where,

w = width = 2 units

h = height = 3 units

l = length = 5 units

Surface area of a rectangular prism = 2 ( wl + hl + hw)

= 2 (2*5 + 3*5 + 3*2)

= 2 (10 + 15 + 6)

= 2 (31)

= 62 square units

Surface area of the rectangular prism = 62 square units

A random sample of 65 high school seniors was selected from all high school seniors at a certain high school. The following scat
Over [174]

Step-by-step explanation:

The line of best fit is y = 2.599x + 105.08.  At x = 20, the estimated height is y = 157.06.  The actual height is 160 cm, so the residual is:

160 cm − 157.06 cm = 2.94 cm

A hospital bill is estimated to be $462.00. It ends up actually costing the patient $525.00. What is the percent error in the bi
Mamont248 [21]
In order to find the percent error, we need to first find the difference between what was expected and what is actually costed. We do this by subtracting:

525-462=63

So now we know that the expected amount was off by $63. To find the percent error, we need to take this $63, and divide it by the amount that was estimated. Let's do that now:

\frac{63}{462}=0.1364

However this is in decimal form. We need to multiply by 100 in order to get it in a percent:

0.1364*100=13.64%

Now we know that the percent error of the hospital bill estimate is 13.64%.
