O $2.88
Answer:
Each slice of pizza cost:
$1.63
Step-by-step explanation:
4.89/3 = 1.63
Answer:
$1.63
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to find the cost per slice of pizza. Therefore, we must divide the total cost by the number of slices of pizza.
cost / slices
It costs $4.89 for 3 slices.

Which statement correctly compares
1–201 and
1512
ol-201 = 151
ol-201 < 51
l-201 > 151
Answer:
Option B.
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the correct question is "Which statement correctly compares
1. -201 and 151
-201 = 151
-201 < 51
-201 > 151"
The given numbers are -201 and 151. We need to compare these numbers.
We know that all negative numbers are less than positive numbers.
So,
-201 < 151
If both numbers are negative, then the larger negative number is the smaller number.
Therefore, the correct option is B.

red marbles, and 2
2
yellow marbles.
If Jenna randomly draws a marble from the bag (and puts it back) 15
15
times, how many times should she expect to pull a yellow marble?
Answer:
5 times
Step-by-step explanation:
Jenna wil most likely pull a yellow marble 1/3 of the time, because the total number of marbles is 6, and there are 2 yellow marbles, 2/6 which is 1/3. 1/3 times 15 is 5. So Jenna will most likely pull a yellow marble 5 times.

Part (a)
BC = opposite side (furthest leg from the reference angle)
AB = adjacent side (closest leg from the reference angle)
AC = hypotenuse (always opposite the 90 degree angle)
=============================================
Part (b)
i. False. Angle B is 90 degrees as shown by the square angle marker.
ii. False. Side AB is opposite angle C. Note how "C" is part of "BC", so that means we cannot have BC be opposite C.
iii. True. Leg AB is the closer leg to angle A. We have "A" in "AB" to see this without having to draw the diagram. Refer to part (a) above.
iv. False. The longest side of any right triangle is always the hypotenuse. The longest side of any triangle is always opposite the largest angle.
==============================================
Part (c)
cos(theta) = adjacent/hypotenuse = AB/AC
tan(theta) = opposite/adjacent = BC/AB
Refer back to part (a) to determine the opposite,adjacent and hypotenuse side lengths.
==============================================
Part (d)
The reference angle has changed, so the opposite and adjacent sides swap. The hypotenuse remains the same regardless of what reference angle you pick.
sin(C) = opposite/hypotenuse = AB/AC
cos(C) = adjacent/hypotenuse = BC/AC
tan(C) = opposite/adjacent = AB/BC
Note the tangent ratio is the reciprocal of what we found back in part (c).
Answer & Step-by-step explanation:
(a)
The hypotenuse is on line CA (the hypotenuse is always opposite the 90° angle (marked by a little square))
The adjacent is on the line BA (adjacent is next to the given angle, but NOT the hypotenuse)
The opposite is on the line CB (this is opposite the given angle)
(b)
i. false (b is a right angle)
ii. false (the side opposite C is BA)
iii. true
iv. false (the side opposite B is the hypotenuse, and the hypotenuse is always the longest side in a triangle)
(c)
cosine ratio: [tex]cos=\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}[/tex]
tangent ratio: [tex]tan=\frac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex]
The cosine and tangent ratios of the given angle:

Consider the function represented by 9x + 3y = 12 with x as the independent variable. How can this function be
written using function notation?
O FID = - Šv
O f(x) = - 3x + 4
Of(x) = -x +
O fly) = -34+4
Answer:
f(x) = - 3x + 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Note that y = f(x)
Rearrange making y the subject
9x + 3y = 12 ( subtract 9x from both sides )
3y = - 9x + 12 ( divide all terms by 3 )
y = - 3x + 4 , that is
f(x) = - 3x + 4

Answer:
25[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] +60
Step-by-step explanation: The first thing you need to do is realize that, this figure is a isosceles trapezoid due to the markings on each side.
So now we know both sides are 10.
We also know the the top two angles are congruent to each other and so are the bottom two angles due to the trapezoid being isosceles.
So the top two angles are 120 degrees and bottom two angles are 60 degrees.
It seems like we can't find the sides, let's try drawing two lines from each top angle all the way down to form two right triangles.
Wow, these two triangles are special right triangles in the form of
30 - 60 - 90 degrees.
shorter side = n
longer side = n[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex]
hypotenuse = 2n
So, 2n = 10
n = 5 for the short side
The bottom base is 4[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] + 5 + 5 = 10 + 4[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex]
The longer side is 5[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex].
The area of trapezoid = (base1 + base2)/2 * height
= (4[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] + 10 + 4[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex])/2 * 5[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] = (10 + 8[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex])/2 * 5[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] = (5+4[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex])*5[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] = 25[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] +60
So, 25[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] + 60 is our answer.
Answer:
60 +25√3
Step-by-step explanation:
In the figure of the isosceles trapezoid below, the angles at C and D are supplementary to the given angle, so are 60°. That makes triangle BDE a 30°-60°-90° right triangle, which has side length ratios ...
DE : BE : BD = 1 : √3 : 2 = 5 : 5√3 : 10
Triangle BDE can be relocated to the other end of the figure to become triangle CAD'. Then the area of concern is that of the rectangle with height 5√3 and length 5+4√3. The area is then ...
Area = lh = (5√3)(5 +4√3) = 5·5√3 +5·4·3
Area = 60 +25√3 . . . square units

2 * -3.5 = -7
[tex]8-|-7-5|[/tex]
Next, subtract 5 from -7.
-7-5= -12
[tex]8-|-12|[/tex]
Next, evaluate the absolute value of -12. The absolute value is how far away a number is from 0, and it is always positive. The absolute value of -12 is 12.
[tex]8-12[/tex]
Subtract 12 from 8.

Answer:
288.4m
Step-by-step explanation:
This track is split into a rectangle and two semi-circles.
We can find the length of the semi-circles by finding its circumference with the formula [tex]2\pi r[/tex].
[tex]2\cdot3.14\cdot30\\188.4[/tex]
However this is half a circle, so:
[tex]188.4\div2=94.2[/tex].
There are two semi-circles.
[tex]94.2\cdot2=188.4[/tex]
Since there are two legs of 50m each, we add 100 to 188.4
[tex]188.4+100=288.4[/tex]m
Hope this helped!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve for the perimeter, we first look at the rectangle in the middle. the length is 50m, and there are two sides to it, so: 50 * 2 = 100m for the top and bottom of the track.
For the circle, we can see the diameter is 30m. To solve for the circumference, we need to use the formula 2πr.
15 * 2π ≈ 94.2477796077
We add that to 100m and get:
194.2477796077

Show that the equations x^2-7x+6=0 and y^2-14y+40=0 form a rectangle.Also find the joint equations of diagonals.
Answer:
1) The region between the four lines x = 6, x = 1, y = 4 and y = 10 describing both equations is a rectangle
2) The joint equations of diagonals are;
5·y = 56 - 6·x and 5·y = 6·x + 14.
Step-by-step explanation:
The equations are;
x² - 7·x + 6 = 0......................(1)
y² - 14·y + 40 = 0.................(2)
Factorizing equation (1) and equation (2) , we get
x² - 7·x + 6 = (x - 6)·(x - 1) = 0
Which are vertical lines at points x = 6 and x = 1
For equation (2) , we get
y² - 14·y + 40 = (y - 10)·(y - 4) = 0
Which are horizontal lines at point y = 4 and y = 10
The region between the four lines x = 6, x = 1, y = 4 and y = 10 describing both equations is a rectangle
2) The points of intersection of the equations are;
(1, 4), (1, 10), (6, 4), and (6, 10)
The end point of the diagonals are;
(1, 10), (6, 4) and (1, 4), (6, 10)
The slope of the diagonals are;
(10 - 4)/(1 - 6) = -6/5 and (4 - 10)/(1 - 6) = 6/5
The equation of one of the diagonals are then, y - 10 = -6/5×(x - 1)
y = -6/5·x + 6/5 + 10 = -6/5·x + 56/5
5·y = 56 - 6·x
The other diagonal is therefore;
y - 4 = 6/5×(x - 1)
y = 6/5·x - 6/5 + 4 = 6/5·x + 14/5
5·y = 6·x + 14.
The joint equations of diagonals are therefore;
5·y = 56 - 6·x and 5·y = 6·x + 14.
Suppose the population of a country is 100 people: 40 work full-time, 20 work half-time but would prefer to work full-time, 10 are looking for a job, 10 would like to work but are so discouraged they have given up looking, 10 are not interested in working because they are full-time students, and 10 are retired. What is the number of unemployed
Answer:
10
Step-by-step explanation:
Those people who are actively seeking for a job are counted as unemployed. Underemployment is not considered as unemployment. Those who have given up looking for jobs are also not considered as unemployed as well. Hence there are 10 unemployed people.
Solve for h. 3/7=h/14-2/7
Answer:
h = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]\frac{3}{7}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{h}{14}[/tex] - [tex]\frac{2}{7}[/tex]
Multiply through by 14 to clear the fractions
6 = h - 4 ( add 4 to both sides )
10 = h
Answer:
10
Step-by-step explanation:
We start out with 3/7 = h/14 - 2/7
add 2/7 to both sides:
(5/7) = h/14
Multiply both sides by 14 to get rid of the fraction:
h = 10
State if the triangles are similar. If so, how do you know they are similar and complete the similarity statement. Triangle LKJ≈____
Answer: C) similar, SAS similarity, triangle LQR
==============================================
Explanation:
The vertical angles KLJ and QLR are congruent. This forms the "A" in "SAS". The angles in question are between the marked sides.
KL = 18 is twice that of QL = 9, or put another way, KL/QL = 18/9 = 2. The ratio of the sides is 2. Also, JL/RL = 16/8 = 2 is the same ratio. Because both pairs of sides have the same ratio, the sides are in proportion. This helps form the two "S" letters of "SAS".
The original triangle has LKJ mentioned at the top. Note the order as its important. We start with L and move to K, so LK is the first segment mentioned. LK = 18 pairs up with LQ = 9, meaning that LQ must be the first segment mentioned of the answer triangle. Therefore LQR is the correct letter sequence if we start with point L. Writing QLR is not correct because Q is the first letter here but Q does not pair up with L.

Write and solve an equation to answer the question. How many people must attend the third show so that the average attendance per show is 3000?
Answer:
3250
Step-by-step explanation:
so for the first and 2nd show, the attendance is 2580 and 2920.
The average of both these numbers is 2750
the if the third show had 3000 people, the average attendance would only be 2875.
We need the average number to be 3000.
2750 is 250 less than 3000, so the other number must be 250 more.
3250 is how many people should go to the last show.
=====================================
Explanation:
We have 2580 people attend the first show and 2920 attend the second. So far, that's 2580+2920 = 5500 people. Add on another x people to get 5500+x, which represents the sum of all three days attendance figures. Divide this sum by 3 to get the average attendance
average attendance = (sum of individual attendance values)/(number of days)
average attendance = (5500+x)/3
So that's why (5500+x)/3 goes in the first box. The parenthesis are important to ensure that you divide all of "5500+x" over 3. If you just wrote 5500+x/3, then the computer would think you just want to divide x only over 3.
----------------
We set (5500+x)/3 equal to 3000 as we want the average of the three days to be 3000
(5500+x)/3 = 3000
5500+x = 3*3000
5500+x = 9000
x = 9000-5500
x = 3500
We need 3500 people to show up on day 3 so that the average of all three days is 3000.
3500 goes in the second box.
----------------
Check:
The figures for the three days are 2580, 2920, and 3500
They add to 2580+2920+3500 = 9000
Which divides to 9000/3 = 3000, which is the average we're after. So the answer is confirmed.
