What is the correct order of steps for bisecting angle ABC? Draw a ray from point B through point F. Keeping the compass the sam

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

Look to the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets arrange the steps for bisecting angle ABC

- The vertex of angle ABC is B, and its rays are BA and BC

# Step 1:

- Place the compass on point B, and swing an arc that intersects rays

BA and BC ⇒ 5th

# Step 2:

- Place point D on the intersection of the arc on ray BA and point E on

the intersection of the arc with ray BC ⇒ 3rd

# Step 3:

- Place the compass on point D, and draw an arc inside the angle ⇒ 6th

# Step 4:

- Keeping the compass the same distance, place the compass on

point E, and draw an arc inside the angle ⇒ 2nd

# Step 5:

- Place point F on the intersection of the arcs created from points D

and E ⇒ 4th

# Step 6:

- Draw a ray from point B through point F ⇒ 1st

* This ray is the bisector of the angle ABC

5/6v+10=5 what is the answer

yulyashka [42]

Answer:

x= -3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

You would multiply both sides by 6x+10 and then that would give you 5-5)6x+10) and you would divide both sides by 5. This would give you 1=6x+10, you would then try to isolate the 6x giving you -6x=10-1 or -6x=9 and you would see if the solutions are in the defined ranges so x=-5/3 is NOT in the defined range but x=-3/2 is.

A recipe calls for 14cup of brown sugar for every 23cup of white sugar. How many cups of brown sugar are required for every cup

photoshop1234 [79]

Note: Consider all the numeric values are in the fraction form. Like $14\to \dfrac{1}{4}$ , $23\to \dfrac{2}{3}$ etc.

Given:

A recipe calls for $\dfrac{1}{4}$ cup of brown sugar for every $\dfrac{2}{3}$ cup of white sugar.

To find:

The number of cups of brown sugar that are required for every cup of white sugar.

Solution:

We know that,

Required brown sugar for $\dfrac{2}{3}$ cup of white sugar = $\dfrac{1}{4}$ cup

Using this, we get

Required brown sugar for 1 cup of white sugar = $\dfrac{\dfrac{1}{4}}{\dfrac{2}{3}}$ cup

$=\dfrac{1}{4}\times \dfrac{3}{2}$ cup

$=\dfrac{3}{8}$ cup

So, $\dfrac{3}{8}$ cup of brown sugar is required for every cup of white sugar.

Therefore, the correct option is B.

Andreyy89

Chance to draw 7: 4 out of 52
chance to draw 1st queen: 4 out of 51
chance to draw 2nd queen: 3 out of 50
total chance = multiplication of
$\frac{4}{52}$ times $\frac{4}{51}$ times $\frac{3}{50}$

$\frac{2}{5525}$

pretty miserable change... apox 1 out of 2762, but still much better than any lottery ticket
