Pirates and Diamonds .
A band of 10 pirates are going to disband. They have divided up all of their gold, but there
remains one GIANT diamond that cannot be divided. To decide who gets it the captain puts all of
the pirates (including himself) in a circle. Then he points at one person to begin. This person
steps out of the circle, takes his gold, and leaves. The person on his left stays in the circle, but
the next person steps out. This continues with every second pirate leaving until there is only one
left. Who should the captain point at if he wants to make sure he gets to keep the diamond for
himself?

it's d.

step-by-step explanation:

because: -1(4x + 1y) +2 (1x-3y) distribute each number into the parenthesis.

then you would get: -4x - 1y + 2x -6y combine like terms

and get: 2x -7y

hope my answer has you if not then i'm sorry.

step-by-step explanation:

answer:   28.56 feet (approx)

step-by-step explanation:

since, triangle abc has measure of angle c equal to 55 degrees, measure of angle abc equal to 90 degrees, and length of bc equal to 20 feet.

we have to find out the measurement of segment ab.

therefore, tan 55° =

but bc = 20 feet.

⇒ tan 55 ° =  

⇒ ab = 20 × tan 55 °

⇒ ab = 20 × 1.42814800674

⇒ ab = 28.5629601348   ≈ 28.56 feet
