Answer:

The smallest of the said odd numbers is 27

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it is 3 odd numbers that sums up to 87, the first thing to do is to divide 87 by 3

That is 87/3 = 29, which is an odd number

The nearest odd numbers to 29 are 27 and 31, and the total of all these three odd numbers is 87

That is 27+29+31 = 87, which are consecutive odd numbers.

The smallest odd number here is therefore 27

Parallel = same slope
Y = 5x + b
8 = 5(5) + b
8 = 25 + b
b = -17
Equation: y = 5x - 17

Answer:

$x = 54$

$y = 0.225$

Detailed steps:

We know that the number of total events is

$n = 80$

and that the probability of a certain event E (for example, "<em>the enemy drops two objects</em>") is computed as the number of times event E occurred, divided by the total of events N=80.

Then:

$0.675 = \frac{x}{80}$

$x = 80 \times 0.675 = 54$

and

$y = \frac{18}{80} = 0.225$

We can verify by checking that adding all probabilities sums up to one.

What is the area of this triangle?

Well, you would have to mutiply the length and width and then divide that by 2 to get your area for the triangle

Answer:

The opposite sides of the rectangle are parallel.

Step-by-step explanation:

If that is true for all parallelograms and a rectangle is a parallelogram, then it should be true for a rectangle too, I think.
