In Art class, Mr. Joselyn gave everyone a 1-foot stick to measure and cut. Vivian measured and cut her stick into 5 equal pieces. Scott measured and cut his into 7 equal pieces. Scott said to Vivian, "The total length of my stick is longer than yours because I have7 pieces, and you only have 5." Is Scott correct? Use words, pictures, or a number lone to help you explain.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: Scott is incorrect, because Mr. Joselyn gave everyone a 1-foot stick, meaning everyone's stick has a total length of 1-foot.  The amount of pieces the stick was cut into does not factor into the length of the stick.

Enter the value of p so the expression 5/6 - 1/3n equivalent to p(5-2n)

Answers


You said                          5/6 - 1/3 n  =  p (5 - 2n)

Divide each side by (5 - 2n) :   

                                   p = (5/6 - 1/3 n) / (5 - 2n) .

That's about all you can do with it.
As you can see, the required value for 'p'
depends on the value of 'n'.

If you want to get rid of those awkward fractions,
I guess you could multiply top and bottom by  6 .
Then you have ...

                           p = (5 - 2 n) / 6·(5 - 2n) .

Oh, my goodness !  Look at that !

                           p = 1/6 .

It doesn't even depend on 'n' at all.  It's always true,
no matter what 'n' is.

I am surprised.

Answer:

19

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x

Then we have 15 (x + 9) = 420.

We can divide both side by 15, getting x + 9 = 28. Then, we can subtract both sides by 9, getting x = 28 - 9 = 19.

Since there are 15 players and he bought a basketball for each of them, he bought 15 basketballs in total.The price of a basketball costs $9.The total price of all 15 basketballs = $9 * 15 = $135.He spent $420 on uniforms and basketballs, and he spent $135 on basketballs.Thus, he spent $420 - $135 = $285 on uniforms.As he bought a uniform for each of the 15 players, he bought 15 uniforms in total.The price of 15 uniforms is $285.The price of 1 uniform is $285 ÷ 15 = $19.

Step-by-step explanation:

2 students have the same age but different heights.

since age is the input and height is the output. in order to be a function one must have exact one output for one input.

since the heights of students in Tessa 's class are not a function of their ages (one input must have two outputs) two students of same age must have different heights.

what is the length of the diagonal of a non-regulation tennis court with length 20 feet and width 15 feet?

Answers

Answer:

25 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Basically that non-regulation tennis court is a rectangle. You want to know the length of the diagonal. If you draw it on paper, you'll see that this then become 2 triangles... of which you have 2 sides, and are seeking the hypotenuse.  So....

H² = A² + B²

H² = 20² + 15² = 400 + 225 = 625

H = 25 feet.

Answer:

The diagonal of a non-regulation tennis court = 25 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagorean theorem

Hypotenuse² = Base² + Height²

The  tennis court  is like a rectangle.

We can consider the court as made of two right angled triangle

To find the length of diagonal of court

Here base = 15 feet and height = 20 feet

Diagonal or hypotenuse can be written as,

Diagonal ² = Base² + Height²

 = 15² + 20²

 = 225 + 400

 = 625

Diagonal = √625 = 25 feet

Therefore  the diagonal of a non-regulation tennis court = 25 feet
