Answer: The required length of MQ is 4 units.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that the point M lies between the points C and Q, where

CM = 17 and CQ = 21.

We are to find the length of MQ.

Since the point M is between the points C and Q, so we must have

$CM+MQ=CQ\\\\\Rightarrow MQ=CQ-CM\\\\\Rightarrow MQ=21-17\\\\\Rightarrow MQ=4.$

Thus, the required length of MQ is 4 units.

The answer is 21 - 17, which = 4.
Or you could +4 to CM (17) which equals CQ (21)

Hank is buying a shirt that originally cost $25.00. It was on sale two weeks ago for 10% off. Today, it is an additional 20% off

Bogdan [553]

Answer:

$18

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial price is $25

When the first 10% is off, the new amount is (100 - 10)% x 25

= 0.9 x 25

= 22.5

With an additional 20%

the new amount is (100 - 20)% x 22.5

= 0.8 x 22.5

= $18

Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

1/2 or 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Saying that there is a 50-50 chance of an event happening is equivalent to saying there is a 1 in 2 chance. Therefore, expressing that degree of likelihood as a value between 0 and 1:

$\frac{1}{2}=0.50$

There is a 1/2 or 0.5 chance that a randomly selected adult has pierced ears.
