Answer:

The argument is valid by the law of detachment.

Step-by-step explanation:

We first verify that the first statement, "if p, then q" is correct. If a parallelogram has a right angle, this means that the angle opposite that angle must also be right; this is because the opposite angles of a parallelogram are congruent.

This also means that the adjacent angle to this right angle must also be right; this is because the adjacent angles in a parallelogram are supplementary.

Thus "if p, then q" is true.

The law of detachment states that if I have two statements, one of the form "if p, then q" and the other "p", then the conclusion, "q," is valid.

I've been stuck on this for a while

Lynna [10]

First find the circumference of the patio.
Diameter is πd.
8 x 3.14 = 25.12
210º is approximately 58%.
Multiply 25.12 by .58 to get approximately 14.7 meters.
Hope this helps!

5^2•3^-1•5^-3/3^4•5^-1•3^-3

Assuming you want the expression to be simplified.

We begin with the following:

$5^{2} * 3^{-1} * \frac{5^-3}{3^{4}} * 5^{-1} * 3^{-3}$

Simplify the first part, $5^{2}$ . That is 25. Now we have this:

$25*3^{-1.5} * \frac{-3}{3^{4}} * 5^{-1} * 3^{-3}$

Next, simplify $3^{-1}$ , which is 1/3, and get this:

$25* 1/3 * \frac{-3}{3^{4}} * 5^{-1} * 3^{-3}$

The next part is $\frac{5^-3}{3^{4}}$ . Simplify the denominator, $3^{4}$ , which is 81. Simplify the numerator, which is 1/125. Then divide 1/125 by 81, which we will keep as a fraction for simplicity's sake, but simplify it to $\frac{1}{10125}$ . Now we have:

$25* 1/3 * \frac{1}{10125} * 5^{-1} * 3^{-3}$

Now simplify $5^{-1}$ , which is 0.2, or 1/5. Now we have:

$25* 1/3 * \frac{1}{10125} * 0.2 * 3^{-3}$

Finally, simplify $3^{-3}$ . That is 1/27. We have:

$25* 1/3 * \frac{1}{10125} * 0.2 * 1/27$

Lastly, multiply them all together! Now we are done, with the product of:

$\frac{1}{6075}$

That certainly did take a while to type in all the LaTex, so I really hope that helped!

Note- if anything isn't working with the LaTex, just tell me and I'll fix it! (:
