Melinda, a carpet installer, brings 270 square feet of carpet padding on an installation job. After the job is finished, she has 1⁄5 of the carpet padding left over. How many square feet of carpet padding did Melinda use? A. 230
B. 54
C. 216
D. 244

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

A correct option is an option (B).

Given,

The total area of the carpet is 270 square feet.

Fraction:

it is also termed as a portion or section of any quantity. It is denoted by using the ‘/’ symbol, such as a/b. For example, 2/4 is a fraction where the upper part denotes the numerator and the lower part is the denominator. A fraction is a word that is originated from Latin. In Latin, “Fractus” means “broken”.

Now, (1)/(5) of the carpet padding leftover.

So, (1)/(5) of 270 square feet is,

(1)/(5) *270=54

So, 54 square feet is left.

Answer 2
Answer:

Answer:

c     216

Aaron has a total net worth of $456. If his liabilities are $570, how much is the total of his assets?

Answers

Answer:

The total assets of Aaron is $1026 .

Step-by-step explanation:

As given in the question

Aaron has a total net worth of $456. If his liabilities are $570 .

Thus

Assets = Liabilities value + Total net worth value

Put all the values in the above

           = $570 + $456

           = $ 1026

Therefore the total assets of Aaron is $1026 .

the correct answer would be $1026 100% accurate

A recursive rule for a geometric sequence is a1=3;an=1/2(an−1) What is an explicit rule for this sequence?

Answers

Answer:The explicit rule for this sequence:

a_n=a_1(r)^(n-1)=3((1)/(2))^(n-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

a_1=3

a_n=(1)/(2)a_(n-1)

Where a_n = n'th term in a sequence

a_2=(1)/(2)a_((2-1))=(1)/(2)a_1=(1)/(2)* 3=(3)/(2)

The value 'r' is geometric mean is given as:

r = common ratio

r=(a_2)/(a_1)=((3)/(2))/(3)=(1)/(2)

The explicit rule for this sequence:

a_n=a_1(r)^(n-1)=3((1)/(2))^(n-1)

A recursive rule for a geometric sequence is a1=3;an=1/2(an−1) 
explicit rule 
an = (3)(1/2 )^n−1

all real numbers

x ≥ 0

Answers

y = 2x² + 30x + 200
y = 2(x² + 15x + 100)

x² = x*x
100 ⇒ 1 x 100 ; 2 x 50 ; 4 x 25 ; 5 x 20 ; 10 x 10

200 = 2x² + 30x + 200
0 = 2x² + 30x + 200 - 200
0 = 2x² + 30x + 0
0 = 2(x² + 15x + ?)
