Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

24 in by 24 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Height of the box is 3 in, then

area of base is 972/3 = 324 in.

The side of the box base is [tex]\sqrt{324}[/tex] = 18

The side of the square piece of carboard is 18 + 2 x 3 = 24 in.

  6.238 +0.005 = 6.243 ⇒ 6.24

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

1, 5, 19, 49

Step-by-step explanation:

To obtain the first 4 terms substitute n = 1, 2, 3, 4 into f(n)

f(1) = 1³ - 1² + 1 = 1 - 1 + 1 = 1

f(2) = 2³ - 2² + 1 = 8 - 4 + 1 = 4 + 1 = 5

f(3) = 3³ - 3² + 1 = 27 - 9 + 1 = 18 + 1 = 19

f(4) = 4³ - 4² + 1 = 64 - 16 + 1 = 48 + 1 = 49

The first 4 terms are 1, 5, 19, 49

next the ones place you have 2 ones

then the tenths place you have 1 tenth

then the hundredth place you have 4 hundreths

so the 3 tens is equal to 30

the 2 ones is equal to 2

the 1 tenth is equal to 0.1

the 4 hundredth is equal to 0.04

Two friends go out to eat and order the same meal. They pay a 6% sales tax and a 20% tip on their meals. The total bill, including tax and tip, is $27.72. How much did each meal cost before tax and tip? (Assume that the friends pay a tip on the cost of the meals only.) IF CORRECT I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!!

Answers

Sales tax and tip will increase the price of an item.

The cost of each meal is: $10.89

Let the cost of both meals be x.

A 20% tip means that, the current price is:

[tex]Price = x \times (1 + 20\%)[/tex]

A 6% sales tax on the meal means that, the current price is:

[tex]Price = x \times (1 + 20\%) \times (1 + 6\%)[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]Price = x \times (1 + 0.20) \times (1 + 0.06)[/tex]

[tex]Price = x \times (1.20) \times (1.06)[/tex]

[tex]Price = x \times 1.272[/tex]

The amount paid is $27.72

So, the equation becomes

[tex]27.72= x \times 1.272[/tex]

Make x the subject

[tex]x = \frac{27.72}{1.272}[/tex]

[tex]x = 21.78[/tex]

So, the cost of each meal is:

[tex]Each= \frac{21.78}{2}[/tex]

[tex]Each= 10.89[/tex]

Hence, the cost of each meal is: $10.89

Write and inequality to compare the fractions. 24/18 and 25/15

Answers

Answer:

25/15 > 24/18

Step-by-step explanation: Both of these fractions can be reduced so that the denominator is 3. This will make it much easier to compare the two fractions. For 24/18, if you divide both the numerator and the denominator by 6, then the fraction simplifies to 4/3. For 25/15, if you divide the numerator and denominator by 5, then the fraction simplifies to 5/3. Since these fractions have a common denominator, the fraction with the larger numerator is going to be the larger fraction. So, 25/15 is greater than 24/18.

Find the zeros of the following function f (x) = 2x^2 – x – 10

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

the formula to find the x values to deliver y=0 results of a squared equation is

x = (-b ± sqrt(b² - 4ac))/(2a)

a, b, c are the constant factors in the 3 terms of a squared equation.

here in our example of 2x² - x - 10

a = 2

b = -1

c = -10

x = (1 ± sqrt(1² - 4×2×-10))/(2×2) =

= (1 ± sqrt(1 + 80))/4 = (1 ± sqrt(81))/4 =

= (1 ± 9)/4

x1 = (1 + 9)/4 = 10/4 = 2 2/4 = 2 1/2 = 2.5

x2 = (1 - 9)/4 = -8/4 = -2
