We are given the ratio
Long : short = 4:1
and the sum
Long+short=25
=>
long = 25*(long/(long+short)=25*(4/(4+1))=20
Short =25*(short/(long+short)=25*(1/4+1)=5

Answer:

D)

Step-by-step explanation:

First we have to subtract 5 from both sides

\sqrt{x-6} +5=12\\\\\sqrt{x-6}+5-5=12-5\\\\\sqrt{x-6}=7

Now, square both sides

(\sqrt{x-6})^{2}=7^{2}

x - 6 = 49

Now, add 6 to both sides

x - 6 +6 = 49 + 6

x = 55

A group of students was discussing the meaning of this statement. They were arguing back and forward about whether the converse
Savatey [412]

Answer:

The statement is missing. The statement is -- "A ray can be part of a line."

The answer is : The converse is not true, so Jahmiah is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

A conditional statement is represented by showing p → q. It means if p is correct or true,  then q is also correct or true.

And the converse of p → q can be shown as  q → p.

But we know that the converse of a statement is not always true, it may be true and may not be true.

In the context, the statement is " a ray can be a part of a line." And so the converse would be  "A line can be a part of the ray".

So by definition we know that a line is continuous line having no end points, it extends in one direction. While a ray starts from a point and extends to infinity in one direction.

Thus ray is part of line but line is not a part of the ray. So the converse of the statement is not correct.

Hence, Jahmiah is correct.
