50% can also be written as (1/2)

Multiply the two known values:

24 x (1/2)

This is equal to (24/2). Simplify the fraction by dividing:

(24/2) = 12

12 dog owners own a pug.

I hope this helps!

In the given figure, measure HK= 50° and measure GKL is 50° which statement is true?
Minchanka [31]

Answer: A

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is a because the measure of angle KGH is 25 degrees since it is an inscribed angle. Angle GKJ is 130 degrees because angle GKL is 50 degrees. Therefore angle J is equal to 25 degrees which makes the triangle an isosceles triangle since angle J and angle KGH are equal to one another.

What is the length of GH¯¯¯¯¯¯, to the nearest tenth of a meter? 7.3 m 13.7 m 14.1 m 19.4 m A scalene triangle G H J. The base s
nlexa [21]
By applying the law of sines.

\frac{GH}{sin \ J} =  \frac{GJ}{sin \ H}

Given:
<span>GJ = 10 , ∠J =45° , ∠H = 31°

∴ </span><span>\frac{GH}{sin \ 45} =  \frac{10}{sin \ 31}

∴ GH = 10 * sin 45° / sin 31° ≈ 13.7 m

What is the most accurate representation of the area of a plot measuring 11.7 cm by 15.4 cm?
sergiy2304 [10]
In the given question the length and width of the plot are already given. although there is no direct specification regarding the one that is length or the one that is the width, so it can be taken as your own choice. This will not affect the ultimate answer. 
So
Area of the rectangular plot = Length * Width
                                             = 11.7 * 15.4 square cm
                                             = 180.18 square cm
So the area of the rectangular plot as can be seen from the above deduction is 180.18 square centimeter.

Need help please. Thanks so much.

Answer:

(-1,\frac{17}{6})

(3,\frac{3}{2})

(-5,\frac{25}{6})

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is 2x+6y=15

We substitute the ordered pairs to see which ones satisfies the equation.

For (-1,-8), we put x=-1 and y=-8 to get:

2(-1)+6(-8)=^?15

-2+-48=^?15\\-50=^?15

This is not true.

For (-1,\frac{17}{6})) we put x=-1 and y=\frac{17}{6} to get

2(-1)+6*\frac{17}{6})=15\\ -2+17=15\\15=15

This is true

For (3,3/2) we have 2(3)+6(3/2)=15

This implies 6+9=15

15=15

This is also True

For (-5,25/6), we have 2(-5)+6(25/6)=-10+25=15

This is also true.
