Answer:

The correct option is;

B. a. Whole number b. Irrational number

Step-by-step explanation:

The height, h of the equilateral triangle = 3·√2·s

The item by which equilateral triangle is made = 2-inch toothpicks

Therefore, we have;

The sides of the equilateral triangle = Comprises multiples of 2 inches

Therefore, the sides of the equilateral triangle is a whole number

The height of the triangle is the product of the side and (√3)/2

Therefore, the height of the triangle is an irrational number

The correct option is A. a. Whole number b. Irrational number.

A whole number are the positive counting numbers, 0, 1, 2, ..., while an integer includes negative numbers which is not possible for a real triangle.

Answer:

from least to greatest 112 121 124 137 147 156 173 189

Step-by-step explanation:

if you subtract each number from a number that is greater than all the numbers for example 200 then what ever has the most left will be greatest and least will be least for example 121 - 200 is negative 79 and 189 - 200 is negative 11 negative 11 is higher so its a greater number there is also easier ways to do this but this is just extra

You want to buy an MP3 player. Your Aunt paid you $20 to mow her lawn and you earn $5 each week
natka813 [3]

Answer:

1. y = 5x + 20

2. $20 the amount you saved mowing your aunt's lawn.

3. 21 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 5 is the slope because it is the rate. 20 is the y-intercept because that is how much you already have.

2. 20 because that is how much you already have.

3. Since you already have $20, you need to subtract 125 by 20 to get 105. Then you divide 105 by 5 to get 21 weeks.

Which equation below represents a line with a slope of - 2/3 that passes through the point (-4.5 , 10)?
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

If a line passes through a point, then that point is called a solution to the line's equation. Substituting the x and y values of that solution into the equation will give a true statement. So, to find out which option is correct, we can substitute the x and y values of (-4.5, 10) into each equation and see if the result is a true statement.  

Let's try this with option C. To make things easier, convert -4.5 into decimal form: -4\frac{1}{2}. Substitute -4\frac{1}{2} for x and 10 for y in the equation, then solve:  

y = -\frac{2}{3} x+7\\\\10 = -\frac{2}{3} (-4\frac{1}{2} )+7\\10 = -\frac{2}{3} (-\frac{9}{2})+7\\10 = 3+7\\10 = 10

10 does equal 10, so this is a true statement. Option C is the right answer.
