Answer:

the tent can hold 8.66 lb of water (or 240 in³ of it)

Step-by-step explanation:

assuming that the tent base is a rectangular area , and the vertical cross section is triangular , then the volume of the tent will be:

Volume of the tent = Area* height/2 = 60 in² * 8 in / 2 = 240 in³

assuming the density of water as 62.4 lb/ft³ then

mass of water = density * volume = 62.4 lb/ft³ * 240 in³ * (1 ft / 12 in)³ = 8.66 lb

then the tent can hold 8.66 lb of water (or 240 in³ of it)

Based only on the information given in the diagram, which congruence
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

Option B

Option E

Step-by-step explanation:

By the use of following postulates we can prove the two right triangles to be congruent.

1). HA - [Equal hypotenuse and an cute angles]

2). LL - [Two legs should be equal]

3). LA - [One leg and one angle must be equal]

4). ASA - [Two angles and the side containing these angles should be equal]

In the given right triangles,

1). OJ ≅ IL

2). ∠O ≅ ∠I

3). ∠J ≅ ∠L

Therefore, two postulates HA, ASA will be applicable for the congruence of the two triangles given.

Options A and E will be the answer.

find the point on the terminal side of θ = negative three pi divided by four that has an x coordinate of negative 1
Mila [183]
Check the picture below, is a negative angle, thus, is going "clockwise"

\bf tan(\theta)=\cfrac{opposite}{adjacent}\qquad tan\left( -\frac{3\pi }{4} \right)=\cfrac{y}{x}\implies  tan\left( -\frac{3\pi }{4} \right)=\cfrac{y}{-1}
\\\\\\
-1\cdot  tan\left( -\frac{3\pi }{4} \right)=y\implies -1\cdot \cfrac{sin\left( -\frac{3\pi }{4} \right)}{cos\left( -\frac{3\pi }{4} \right)}=y
\\\\\\
-1\cdot \cfrac{-1}{-1}=y\implies -1

PART A
s = <span>the number of packets of strawberry wafers ;
c = </span><span>the number of packets of chocolate wafers ;
3 </span>× s + 1 × <span>c = 30 ;
s + c = 22 ;

PART B

</span>The method of solving "by substitution"<span> works by solving one of the equations (you choose which one) for one of the variables (you choose which one), and then plugging this back into the other equation, "substituting" for the chosen variable and solving for the other. Then you back-solve for the first variable.
</span>
c = 30 - 3s;
s + ( 30 - 3s ) = 22;
30 - 2s = 22;
30 - 22 = 2s;
8 = 2s;
s = 4 ;
c = 30 - 12 ;
c = 18 ;

Marat540 [252]

Answer:

Mr. Sullivan <u>is</u> being fair because one tile has <u>an equal</u> probability of being selected over another tile.

Step-by-step explanation:

The process is fair because every tile has the same probability of being selected, and as the selection goes on, the selected students are removed.
