Randy is thinking of a number. When he adds 7 to the number, multiplies the sum by 3, then subtracts 2, the result is 13. What is the original number?A. 6
B. -2
C. 2
D. -6

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

B. -2

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number be x

=7+x

=3(7+x)

=3(7+x)-2

13=3(7+x)-2

solving for  x we have

13=21+3x-2

21+3x-2-13=0

collect like terms we have

21-2-13+3x=0

6+3x=0

6=-3x

x=6/-3

x=-2

The answer is B

B. -2

3) The half of (√200 + √128 ) is 1. √100 + √64

2. 9√2

3. 18√2

Answers

Answer:

Option 2 i.e. 9√2 is the correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression

(√(200)\:+\:√(128))

The half of (√(200)\:+\:√(128)) can be determined by dividing the expression in half.

Therefore, we need to solve the expression such as

(\left(√(200)\:+\:√(128)\:\right))/(2)

as

√(200)=√(100* 2)=√(100^2* \:2)=10√(2)

√(128)=√(64* 2)=√(8^2* \:2)=8√(2)

so the expression becomes

(\left(√(200)\:+\:√(128)\:\right))/(2)=(10√(2)+8√(2))/(2)

Add similar elements:  10√(2)+8√(2)=18√(2)

                     =(18√(2))/(2)

Divide the numbers: 18/2 = 9

                      =9√(2)

Therefore, we conclude that:

(\left(√(200)\:+\:√(128)\:\right))/(2)=9√(2)

Hence, option 2 i.e. 9√2 is the correct option.

Use the digits 1,3,4,and 7 to create two whole numbers whose product is estimated to be about 600

Answers

Answer: 34 and 17 are two numbers created from the given digits whose product is estimated to be about 600.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 34 and 17 are two whole numbers created from the given digits.

Case 1) If we multiply 34 and 17 then 34×17=578 if we rounding up to the nearest hundreds we will get 600.

Case 2) If we rounding up the whole numbers before multiplication as

estimate of 34 to the nearest ten is 30 and 17 to the nearest ten is 20

Then the product becomes 30×20=600.

So by both the ways 34 and 17 can be used for estimated product to be 600.

34 x 17  (round the 2 numbers)
30 x 20
   600

Also, 34 x 17 = 578, which rounds to 600


The answer is 34 and 17
