Are the side lengths congruent?

Mathematics

Answer:

The side lengths are not congruent. Evidence: Becuase the line shows that one is higher. None of the sides are parallel. Evidence: none of the lines of the shape are on the exact same line. No the adjacent sides are not perpendicular. Evidence: They are crooked and you can tell becuase of how the shape is on the line. The most specific shape is a rhombus. A rhombus is a crooked square. This isn't a perfect rhombus.

Is 7/8 or 11/10 closer to 1? How did you decide anybody help please?

erik [133]

Let

A-----> $\frac{7}{8}$

B-----> $\frac{11}{10}$

C-----> $1$

we know that

Point A-------> Multiply numerator and denominator by $10$

$\frac{7*10}{8*10} =\frac{70}{80}$

Point B-------> Multiply numerator and denominator by $8$

$\frac{11*8}{10*8} =\frac{88}{80}$

Point C-------> Multiply numerator and denominator by $80$

$\frac{1*80}{1*80} =\frac{80}{80}$

Find the distance Point A to Point C

$\frac{80}{80} -\frac{70}{80} =\frac{10}{80}$

Find the distance Point B to Point C

$\frac{88}{80} -\frac{80}{80} =\frac{8}{80}$

therefore

$\frac{8}{80} < \frac{10}{80}$

Point B is closer to Point C

$\frac{11}{10}$ is closer to $1$

the answer is

$\frac{11}{10}$ is closer to $1$

can someone help me understand this, please? For some reason my answer is correct but I need to understand how did I found the c

Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer with step-by-step explanation:

The way the question is worded, this actually shouldn't be correct. The correct answer should be $3:4$ .

Because the trapezoids are similar, we can find the ratio of their perimeters by actually just finding the ratio of their sides.

Why?

By definition, the corresponding sides of a polygon are in a constant proportion. The perimeter is simply the sum of all sides of the polygon. Since we're just adding the sides, the proportion will still be maintained.

Therefore, we'll just need to ratio of their corresponding sides. The only two corresponding sides that are marked are $\overline{RS}$ and $\overline{AB}$ .

The ratio of $\overline{RS}:\overline{AB}$ is $18:24\implies \boxed{3:4}$ .

The reason why it ideally should be $3:4$ and not $4:3$ is because the question states $RTSU\sim ABCD$ , which mentions $RSTU$ first, so our answer should follow this respective order. I believe you were marked right anyways because the specific order is not specified, but generally, you want to give your answer respectively by default.

2X+2Y=48<br> 3X+Y=40 <br><br> What is X and Y

marshall27 [118]

Answer:

x=8

y=16

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+2y=48

3x+y=40

Ther is many ways to solve this, one of them is clearance:

WE CLEAR AN UNLOCKED (X) AND REPLACE IT IN THE OTHER

x= (40-y)/3

2[(40-y)/3] +2y=48

(80-2y)/3 +2y=48

(80-2y+6y)/3=48

80+4y=48(3)

4y=144

y= 144/4

y=16

x=(40-y)/3

x=(40-16)/3

x=24/3

x=8

-6(2+n) is greater than 72

Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

n > -14

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, you use the distributive property;

-12 - 6n > 72

Then, since 12 is negative, you add 12 to both sides;

-12 - 6n > 72

+12 +12

-6n > 84

Then you divide both sides by -6 to get n > -14.

Shoot, hold on; this is an edit; did you mean that 72 is greater than -6(2 + n) or did you accidentally flip the sign in the picture? Hopefully I did what you needed.
