Our basis would be 204 pounds. His original weight, 6 week ago, must be

204 + 2(6) = 216 pounds

But, we have to find the number of weeks having known the present weight (204 pounds) and the target weight (189). The linear equation would be

Target \ weight = \ Present \ weight \ -2(number \ of \ weeks)

189 = 204 - 2(number of weeks)
Number of weeks = (204-189)/2
Number of weeks = 7.5

The total number of weeks would then be 6 weeks + 7.5 weeks. It would take Omar 13 and a half weeks since he started his diet to reach his target weight.

Jacoby followed a recipe that requires 2 cup for water four every 3 cups of flours. if he used 8 cups flours, how many cups of w
zmey [24]

Answer:

5 and 1/3 cups of water.

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a proportion like this:

  2:3 for the original recipe

Then a second proportion for the recipe Jacoby used:  

  w:8  (use w for the unknown water amount)

Set up an equation so that the proportions equal each other. It helps if you write them in fraction form:

  \frac{2}{3} =\frac{w}{8}

Use cross multiplication to get the new equation:

  8 x 2 (or 16) = 3w

Then, divide both sides by 3 to get the amount for w, or water, by itself:

5 and 1/3 = w

I hope this helps! ☺

Please answer 1,2,3, and 4
Anika [276]

Answer:

<u><em>1: "An equilateral triangle is never an obtuse triangle" & "An equilateral triangle is never an isosceles triangle." </em></u>

<u><em> </em></u>

<u><em>2: Acute Isosceles Triangle </em></u>

<u><em> </em></u>

<u><em>3: False! Option B. </em></u>

<u><em> </em></u>

<u><em>4: D</em></u>

Step-by-step explanation:

2: Isosceles Triangles have two equal sides. An acute triangle (or acute-angled triangle) is a triangle with three acute angles (less than 90°). An obtuse triangle (or obtuse-angled triangle) is a triangle with one obtuse angle (greater than 90°) and two acute angles.

3: An <u>equilateral triangle</u> is a triangle in which all the sides and all the angles are equal.

4: In order for a triangle to be <u>isosceles</u>, it has to have two same sides. For a triangle to be <u>equilateral</u>, all sides and angles need to be the same. Refer to reasoning in Question 2 for next explanation.
