<h2>Answer:</h2>

We take the example of:

Three collinear points in a plane.

Then we may conclude that they will never form a triangle.

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

We know that a conditional statement is given by:

If p then q

where p is the hypothesis of the statement and q is the conclusion of the statement.

Counter example for a conditional statement--

A counter example is an example that makes the general statement is false.

i.e. a example which fulfills the condition of the hypothesis but does not satisfy the conclusion of the given statement.

  • Here the statement is:

If three distinct points lie in a plane, then the points can form a triangle.

i.e. Hypothesis is: Three distinct point lie in a plane.

and conclusion is: The points form a triangle.

So we take a example as:

Three collinear points lie in a plane but they will never form a triangle.

when coloring in a grid to show a fraction, what does 3/10 look like when the grid represents a whole
Katarina [22]

Answer:

3 of 10 grid squares making up the whole will be colored.

Step-by-step explanation:

1/10 is one of ten equal parts. 3/10 is three of those ten equal parts. Essentially, the fraction 3/10 means "three out of ten".

_____

If the whole is divided into more than 10 parts, 3/10 will be 3 out of every 10. So if there are 20 parts, for example (2 tens), the 3/10 will be 6 of those parts (3 of each of the two tens).

Teh width of a rectangle is 2 cm less than 7 times the length. the perimeter is 60 cm. determine the length and the width of the
Gwar [14]
P=2(L+W)
60=P=2(L+W)
60=2(L+W)
divide by 2
30=L+W

given
W=-2+7L
subsitute
30=L+W
30=L-2+7L
30=8L-2
add 2
32=8L
divide by 8
4=L


sub back
W=-2+7L
W=-2+7(4)
W=-2+28
W=26

Answer:

A rectangle has a perimeter of 64 inches. The length is 6 more than the width.
BigorU [14]
Let width be x so
Length is equal to x+6
Perimeter= 2(l+b)
So perimeter=2(x+x+6)
P=2(2x+6)
4x+12=64 (given)
Send 12 to the other side then,
4x=64-12=52
X=52/4=13
