Answer: B 2/5

Step-by-step explanation: Convert the mixed number  2 1/2 into an improper fraction first by multiplying the denominator  (2) by the whole number part  (2)and add the numerator  (1)  to get the new numerator. Place the new numerator  (5)  over the old denominator (2). And now inverse means opposite, so just flip it.

Finally: 5/2 inverse= 2/5

If you get rid of the whole number in that fraction, you will have 3/2.
So the opposite of that would be 2/3.
I believe the answer is 2/3.

How many different six-digit decimal numbers can be formed where the first digit is a 1 or the last digit is a 5?
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

10000 different numbers

Step-by-step explanation:

The numbers will have the form 1XXXX5, in this case, the order is important because 123465 is a different number to 123645. To know the total of differents decimal numbers, use the formula of permutation with repetition:

n^r

n is the number of options, n=10, and r the number of times you have to place a digit, r=4.

10^4=10000

Can you conclude from the figure that ABC is similar to DEF? Explain.​
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

Yes, we can conclude that Triangle ABC is similar to triangle DEF because the measures of the 3 angles of both triangles are congruent.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the measure of 2 angles from both triangles, and we know that triangles have 180°, so we can solve for the measure of the third angle for both triangles.

Triangle ABC:

Measure of angle A= 60°

Measure of angle C= 40°

Measure of angle B = 180°- (measure of angle A + measure of angle C) = 180° - (60° + 40°) = 80°

Triangle DEF

Measure of angle E= 80°

Measure of angle F= 40°

Measure of angle D= 180° - (measure of angle E + measure of angle F) = 180° - (80° + 40°) = 60°

The measures of the angles in Triangle ABC are: 60°, 40°, and 80°.

The measures of the angles in Triangle DEF are: 60°, 40°, and 80°.

Since the measure of 3 angles of the two triangles are the same, we know that the two triangles are similar.

Use completing the square to determine which of the following gives the solutions to 3x2 - 24x + 40 = 28.
jeka94

Answer:

x=4+2\sqrt{3}

x=4-2\sqrt{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Completing the square</u>

when  ax^2+bx+c=0

Given equation:

3x^2-24x+40=28

Subtract 40 from both sides:

\implies 3x^2-24x=-12

Divide both sides by 3:

\implies x^2-8x=-4

Add the square of half the coefficient of x to both sides:

(\frac{b}{2})^2=(\frac{-8}{2})^2=16

\implies x^2-8x+16=-4+16

Factor the left side and simplify the right side:

\implies (x-4)^2=12

Square root both sides:

\implies x-4=\pm\sqrt{12}

Add 4 to both sides and simplify the radical:

\implies x=4\pm\sqrt{4 \cdot 3}

\implies x=4\pm\sqrt{4}\sqrt{3}

\implies x=4\pm2\sqrt{3}
