The correct answers are 0, 5, and 8. Clearly, having negative bags isn't feasible. Additionally, 10 is not possible since the balloon has a weight limit.

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the possible capacity, start by taking 300 and subtracting the pilot's weight of 140, which leaves you with 160. After reaching that number, divide it by 20 to find how many bags can fit, resulting in 8. Since each bag adds 20 pounds to the total weight, having 8 or fewer bags is acceptable. Thus, the choices (4), (5), and (0) should be the correct responses.

Solve the following quadratic equations by extracting square roots.Answer the questions that follow.
babunello [11817]

Answer:

1. x=±4

2. t=±9

3. r=±10

4. x=±12

5. s=±5

Step-by-step explanation:

1. x^2 = 16

By extracting the square root on both sides

\sqrt{x^2}=\sqrt{16}\\\sqrt{x^2}=\sqrt{(4)^2}\\

x=±4

2. t^2=81

Again, take the square root of each side

\sqrt{t^2}=\sqrt{81}\\\sqrt{t^2}=\sqrt{(9)^2}

t=±9

3. r^2-100=0

r^{2}-100=0\\r^2 =100\\Taking\ Square\ root\ on\ both\ sides\\\sqrt{r^2}=\sqrt{100}\\\sqrt{r^2}=\sqrt{(10)^2}

r=±10

4. x²-144=0

We rewrite as x²=144

Applying square roots

\sqrt{x^2}=\sqrt{144}\\\sqrt{x^2}=\sqrt{(12)^2}

x=±12

5. 2s²=50

\frac{2s^2}{2} =\frac{50}{2}\\s^2=25\\Taking\ Square\ root\ on\ both\ sides\\\sqrt{s^2}=\sqrt{25}\\\sqrt{s^2}=\sqrt{(5)^2}

s=±5 ..

lawyer [12517]
The formula for determining the number of ways to select two pairs of sneakers from three pairs labeled A, B, and C is represented by 3C2 (3 combinations of 2), which calculates as 3! / (2!(3 - 2)!) = 3! / (2! x 1!) = (3 x 2) / (2 x 1) = 3. Therefore, the sample space is S = {AB, AC, BC}.
