Answer:

Alma is incorrect in her statement.

Step-by-step explanation:

It was given that:

Alma reasoned that adding a rational number with an irrational number would give you a rational number.

she is incorrect as adding an rational number with an irrational number always gives an irrational number.

<u>Example:</u>

4+\sqrt{5} is an irrational number.

Where 4 is an rational number and \sqrt{5} is an irrational number and so adding both of them gives an irrational number.

Using numbers 12,4,5,17,12 make 24. <br> Helllpppp
romanna [79]

Answer: To get 24

Step-by-step explanation

What you would need to do is first multiply 12 x 5 would come out as 60.

Then from 60 you subtract 17 and 12 to get 5. Divide by the 5 that you just got from 17 and 12 and to get 20. Using the 4 add it to the 20 to get 24.

6(a)If the gradient of the straight line
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

(i) k =1

(ii) y-intercept is 7

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given line:</u>

  • ky = kx + x + 7

<u>Divide all terms by k to get slope-intercept form of the line</u>

  • y = (1 + 1/k)x + 7/k

<u>Since the gradient (slope) of the line is 2:</u>

  • 1 + 1/k = 2
  • 1/k = 1
  • k = 1

<u>The equation is now:</u>

  • y = 2x + 7

<u>y - intercept is found when x = 0</u>

  • x = 0 ⇒
  • y = 2*0 + 7
  • y = 7

Which of the following verifies that AABC is similar to A DEF?
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the SAS theorem, if the 2 sides of the 2 triangles are multiples of each other by the same scale factor, with the angle in between them being the same for each triangle. The triangles are similar.

The SSS theorem is not appropriate here because we do not know the side lengths of AB or DE in the diagram. For SSS theorem we need to know all of the side lengths.

A is incorrect because the similarity can be determined.
