It’s the same distance from the second base to the first base from the second base to third-base the angle formed by the first b

Margaret [11]

Answer:

Distance of home plate to 1st base is equal to home plate to 3rd base

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's first assign each position:

A: home base

B: 1st base

C: 2nd base

D: 3rd base

The information given:

'It’s the same distance from the second base to the first base from the second base to third-base' tells us BC = CD

'the angle formed by the first base second base and Homeplate has the same measure as the angle formed by the base second base home plate' tells us angle(BCA) = angle(DCA)

Check for congruency between triangle ABC and ADC

BC = CD - side congruency (S)

angle(BCA) = angle(DCA) - angle congruency (A)

CA = CA - side congruency (S)

So triangle ABC and ADC fullfill the criteria of congruence property as SAS.

Since both triangle are congruent, another side of the triangles AB and AD must be the same too.

AB = home plate to 1st base

AD = home plate to 3rd base

Therefore we can conclude that the distance of home plate to 1st base is equal to home plate to 3rd base

The line plot shows the weights of packages of meat available at a grocery store. The 3 lightest packages cost $4.40 per pound.

Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

$42.40

Step-by-step explanation:

The horizontal axis is in fractions.

The three lightest are two $\frac{5}{8}$ pounds & one $\frac{6}{8}$ pounds. Each cost $4.40 per pound.

So cost = 4.40(5/8+5/8+6/8) = $8.8

Remaining costs 4.80 per pound. We add up the remaining and multiply by 4.80 to get their cost.

cost = $4.80(1+1\frac{1}{8}+1\frac{1}{8}+1\frac{1}{8}+1\frac{2}{8}+1\frac{3}{8})=33.6$

Hence, total cost = 8.8 + 33.6 = $42.40

You use 4 gallons of water on 14 plants in your garden.At this rate, how much water will it take to water 35 plants?

Naddika [18.5K]

For this case we can make the following rule of three:

4 gallons --------------> 14 plants

x --------------------------> 35 plants

From here, we clear the value of x.

We have then:

$x = (\frac{35}{14}) * (4)\\x = 10$

therefore, 10 gallons are needed to irrigate 35 plants.

Answer:

it will take 10 gallons to water 35 plants
