You are a screenwriter who is writing a script for an hour-long police drama. You have written 20 1/2 pages for act 1 and 5 1/2 pages for act 2.

How many pages have you written in total?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

You have written 26 pages in total.

Step-by-step explanation:

I always enjoyed adding fractions. Something about it is so... simple.

The problem is basically asking us to add 20 1/2 and 5 1/2 together.

I would first suggest adding both halves together, to make 1.

That way, we're left with 20 + 5 + 1. That seem easier, doesn't it?

Then we would add 20, 5 and 1 together, to get 26 whole pages.

And that, to an extent, is how I did it.

Hope this helps! :D

Answer 2

Answer:

Given:

Written pages for Act 1 = 20 1/2

Written pages for Act 2 = 5 1/2

For making mixed numbers like this easier to add, let's convert them first into an irrational number with this formula,

((Whole Number × Denominator) + Numerator)/Denominator

Thus,

for 20 1/2

((20 × 2) + 1)/2 = 41/2

for 5 1/2

((5 × 2) + 1)/2 = 11/2

Then we add,

41/2 + 11/2

Since, they have the same denominator, no more conversions need, proceed adding the numerators,

(41 + 11)/2 = 52/2 = 26

You've written 26 pages in total.

Answers

Answer:

a) root77

b) 2 root77 / ~17.55 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

a) by using Pythagorean Theroem,

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

2^2 + b^2 = 9^2

4 + b^2 = 81

81 - 4 = b^2

77 = b^2

root77 = b

b) 1/2bh is the quation for area thus,

area = 1/2 ( 4 ) ( root77)

area = 2 root77

or area = ~17.55 cm^2

Answer:

h = [tex]\sqrt{77}[/tex]

A =[tex]2\sqrt{77}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Rules for solving this problem:

Isosceles triangle rules

∠C = ∠ABC = BA

Because of isosceles being made up of two right triangles; using the pythagorean theorem we can deduce that

(1/2 x AC)² = BC² - h² (1/2 x AC)² = BA² - h²

Area of a triangle

A = 1/2 (Base x Height) = 1/2 * bh

Step 1 - Find the height

[tex]h =\sqrt{9^2 - ((1/2)AC)^2} = \sqrt{9^2 - ((1/2)~4)^2} = \sqrt{9^2 - 2^2} = \sqrt{81-4} = \sqrt {77}[/tex]

Step 2 - Find the area

[tex]A = \frac{1}{2}bh = (\frac{1}{2})(4)(\sqrt{77}) = 2 \sqrt{77}[/tex]

What is an eqination of the line that passes through the point (-3, -7) and parallel to the line 3x-y=5
I need the y=mx+b

Answers

Answer:

y = 3x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to change the way the equation is said into a easier form:

y = 3x - 5

Since the line is parallel, you can use the same slope of 3:

y = 3x + b

Now you plug in the coordinates into the equation and solve for b:

-7 = 3 ( -3) + b

-7 = - 9 + b

-7 + 9 = b

2 = b

Now plig this into the equation and you have the answer

y = 3x + 2

Isaiah was given a gift card for a coffee shop. Each morning, Isaiah uses the card to
buy one cup of coffee. The original amount of money on the gift card was $10 and
each
cup
of coffee costs $2. Write an equation for A, in terms of x, representing the
amount money remaining on the card after buying x cups of coffee.

Answers

Answer:

$10 - $2x = A

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for A, in terms of x, represents the amount of money remaining on the card after buying x cups of coffee is $10 - $2x = A.

What is an expression?

The mathematical expression combines numerical variables and operations denoted by addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division signs.

Mathematical symbols can be used to represent numbers (constants), variables, operations, functions, brackets, punctuation, and grouping. They can also denote the logical syntax's operation order and other properties.

Given that Isaiah was given a gift card for a coffee shop. Each morning, Isaiah uses the card to buy one cup of coffee. The original amount of money on the gift card was $10 and each cup of coffee costs $2.

If an object is projected upward from ground level with an initial velocity of 48ft per​ sec, then its height in feet after t seconds is given by ​s(t)= -16t^2+48t. Find the number of seconds it will take to reach its maximum height. What is this maximum​ height? The object will take __ ​second(s) to reach its maximum height. (Simplify your​ answer.) The maximum height reached by the object is __ feet. (Simplify your​ answer.)

Answers

Answer:

t = 1.5 s and s(t) = 36 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The height reached by an object as a function of time t is given by :

[tex]s(t)= -16t^2+48t[/tex] ...(1)

t is in seconds

To find the maximum height, put [tex]\dfrac{dh}{dt}=0[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{d( -16t^2+48t)}{dt}=0\\\\-32t+48=0\\\\t=\dfrac{48}{32}\\\\t=1.5\ s[/tex]

It will take 1.5 seconds to reach its maximum height.

Put t = 1.5 s in equation (1), such that,

[tex]s(1.5)= -16(1.5)^2+48(1.5)\\\\s(t)=36\ \text{feet}[/tex]

The maximum height reached by the object is 36 feet.

The circle at the new location has _____________ the original circle.

- the same center as

- twice the circumference of

- half the radius of

- the same area as

Answer:

the same area as

Step-by-step explanation:

When a circle is translated and reflected, the center of the circle will change; however, its area, circumference, radius and diameter remain the same.

This is so because, translation and reflection only affect the positioning of the circle not the size.

Considering the above analysis, we can conclude that option d answers the question correctly.
