Make a proportion to find Mr. Yoshi's percentage:
60/75 = x/100

Cross Products:
6000 = 75x
x = 80

So 60/75 = 80/100 which is 80%

Now for the student teacher:
The student teacher graded 75-60 = 15 papers.

Make a proportion:
15/75 = x/100

Cross products:
75x = 1500
x = 20
So 15/75 = 20/100 which is 20%

So Mr. Yoshi: 80%
Student Teacher: 20%

You can check by adding the two scores together and seeing if the sum is 100%:

80% + 20% = 100% 

It is, so the answer is correct.

In triangle KLM, if K is congruent to L, KL = 9x - 40, LM = 7x - 37, & KM = 3x + 23, find x & the measure of each angle.
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer: x = 15, ∠K = 45.7°, ∠L = 45.7°, ∠M = 88.6°

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Since ∠K ≅ ∠L, then ΔKLM is an isoceles triangle with base KL

 KM ≅ LM

3x + 23 = 7x - 37

       23 = 4x - 37

       60 = 4x

        15 = x

KM = LM = 3x + 23

               = 3(15) + 23

               = 45 + 23

               = 68

KL = 9x - 40

    = 9(15) - 40

    = 135 - 40

    = 95

Next, draw a perpendicular bisector KN from K to KL. Thus, N is the midpoint of KL and ΔMNL is a right triangle.

  • Since N is the midpoint of KL and KL = 95, then NL = 47.5
  • Since ∠N is 90°, then NL is adjacent to ∠l and ML is the hypotenuse

Use trig to solve for ∠L (which equals ∠K):

cos ∠L = \frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}

cos ∠L = \frac{47.5}{68}

      ∠L = cos⁻¹ (\frac{47.5}{68})

      ∠L = 45.7  

Triangle sum Theorem:

∠K + ∠L + ∠M = 180°    

45.7 + 45.7 + ∠M = 180

       91.4     + ∠M = 180

                      ∠M = 88.6

Lu is making a quilt that is 20 squares wide and has 18 rows the border of the quilt is made by using each toy design equally as
mixer [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is two designs are used 12 times each and other four designs are used for 13 times each.

Step-by-step explanation:

Width of the quilt Lu is making is 18 rows of 20 squares each.

Thus the perimeter of the quilt is 20 + 20 + 18 + 18 = 76.

We can also say there are 76 square as the boundary which are to be bordered with toy designs.

Each square can hold 1 design of toy and there are 6 different designs of toys.

Thus number of times each design is used \frac{76}{6} = 12 \frac{4}{6}.

Thus there are two designs used 12 times each and other four designs are used for 13 times each.

Use geometry words to describe a way to separate triangles into other triangles
zysi [14]
You can divide a triangle using medians. Let's name triangle ΔABC shown in figure 1. So you must start at one of the vertices and then bisect the opposite side. Let's start with the point A and then we bisect the opposite side. Then the length from B to D is equal to the length from D to C. So let's take the point B and then we bisect the opposite side. Then the length from A to E is equal to the length from E to C. The same reasoning happens with the point C. So we have, in figure 2, the triangle ΔABC divided into six triangles which all have the same area.
