Answer to number 14 is B. 3,775

Using Gauss formula... the sum of

1 to n = n(n+1)/ 2

1 to 50 = 50(50+1)/2 = 1275
1 to 100 = 100(100+1)/2 = 5050
So, 5050 - 1275 = 3,775

21 walang sagot error.

binili nya ang candy sa
halagang P90.25
then 35 lahat ng candy sa
isang pack. tapos binenta
nya ng tig P2.25 each
so 35 * P2.25 = P78.75
P78.75 lang kita nya so wala
siyang profit luge pa sya ng
P11.25 kaya error.
ang tanong kasi magkano
profit nya.

First, you have to get each

other's distance after 2
hours:
North: d=st=30(2)=60
East: d=st=40(2)=80
Then, you have to apply
Pythagorean Theorem in
order to get the distance r^2
= a^2 + b^2 = 60^2 + 80^2 =
3600 + 6400=10 000
Get the square root of 10,
000 to get r= 100 km.

1 yard = 36 inches
1 yard^2 = 1296 inches^2
2 yard^2 = 2592 in^2

or,
2 yards = 72 inches
(2 yards = 72 in)^2
4 yards^2 = 5184 in^2
2 yards^2 = 2592

sa number 4 po ba ganito po
ba process ng pag solve?
distribution property, then
transpose po.
kasi po wala pong
nakaindicate na choices D
po.
0.4(5x-1470)=x
0.4(5x)-0.4(1470)=x
2x-588=x
2x=588
2x/2=588/2
x=294

Anonymous July 11, 2017

588 po. di nyo na po na

subtract ung isang x resulting
to divide 588 by 2 which is
wrong.
