Answer:

PR = 3.2

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use proportions to solve this problem.  Put the first triangle side over the second triangle side.

BC           AC

-------- = ----------

QR            PR

Substituting in values

10          8

-------- = ----------

4            PR

Using cross products

10 PR = 8*4

10 PR = 32

Divide by 10

10 PR/10 = 32/10

PR = 3.2

Answer:

79 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Quadrilaterals have a total of 360 degrees. They already gave you three of them so you just have to add all the given degrees and subtract it by 360. 101+124+56=281 ; 360-281=79

A wall is 300 square feet.a gallon of paint covers 110 square feet. What is an appropriate conversion factor to help determine h
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

(1 gallon)/(100 ft^2)

Step-by-step explanation:

(1 gallon)/(100 ft^2) is a good conversion factor.  We could also use (100 ft^2)/(1 gallon), but I like the first, since the calculation is simpler:

(300ft^2)*/(1 gallon)/(100 ft^2) = 3 gallons  [I like multiplication better than division, and especially here, since 300/100 is 3, if my memory is correct.

What is the square root of 75 to the nearest integer
kodGreya [7K]

<u><em>5√3 is the correct answer.</em></u> First you had to find the prime factorization of 75, and it gave us, 3*5^2=5*5=25*3=75, or =\sqrt{5^2*3}. Then you can use apply radical rule, and it gave us, \sqrt{3} \sqrt{5^2}, or \sqrt{5^2}=5, and it gave us the answer is 5√3 is the correct answer. Hope this helps! And thank you for posting your question at here on brainly, and have a great day. -Charlie
