1. As you can see in the figure attached, the <span> line "t" is the perpendicular bisector of JK, and divides the triangle in two equal right triangles. This means that both triangles are congruent. Therefore, both have equal dimensions. Keeping this on mind, you have the followiig:

2. Both triangles are congruents, then:

GK=GJ

3. So if the lenght GK is 8.25, the length GJ has the same length:

GJ=8.25

4. Therefore, the answer is:

GJ=8.25</span>

Mrs smith bought a.box of 10 cupcake she ate 30% of the cupcake how many did she eat

iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

3 Cupcakes

Step-by-step explanation:

First, multiply the percentage, 30, times the number of cupcakes, 10, ad you get 300. Then, divide that by 100, and oyu get your answer, 3 cupcakes.

*Or since this form of equation is in a simpler form of 10 cupcakes, just get rid of the percentage sign and the 0 in 30%. I hope this helps :)

An inflatable raft that you have jumped in to escape the monsters has 4500 cubic inches of air inside it when fully inflated. It

DedPeter [7]

Answer:

2628.48 cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The inflatable raft has 4500 cubic inches of air inside it when fully inflated.

The inflatable raft loses air at a rate of a decrease 6.5% each day.

Now, we have to calculate the volume of air that will be left in the raft after 8 days.

Therefore, the volume of air left in the raft after 8 days will be $4500[1-\frac{6.5}{100} ]^{8} =2628.48$ cubic inches. (Answer)

Which inequality is represented by the graph?y > -2/3x + 1y < -2/3x + 1y < -3/2x + 1y > -3/2x + 1

Tanya [424]

Answer:

$y < -\frac{3}{2}x+1$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

From the graph shown,

The broken line means that the inequality sign will be either < or >.

The shaded region is to the left of the broken line. This means that $y < f(x)$ .

Now, in order to find equation of line, we need slope and y-intercept.

From the graph, the y intercept is at $(0,1)$ . So, y intercept is 1.

Also, if we consider two points $(0,1)\textrm{ and }(2,-2)$ on the line, then slope is given as:

$m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}=\frac{-2-1}{2-0}=\frac{-3}{2}=-\frac{3}{2}$

Therefore, the equation of the line is given as:

$y=mx+b\\y=-\frac{3}{2}x+1$

But as the shaded region is to the left of the line,

∴ $y$ is the correct answer.
