5 0

<u>Answer:</u>

<u>one</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

First, note that a conditional statement in mathematics refers to a statement in which a hypothesis is given followed by a conclusion. Such as saying if P then "Q”, P  and Q  are sentences.

For example, a good example of conditional statement;

"If today is Sunday,<u> then tomorrow is Monday"</u>(hypothesis not underlined; condition underlined). While the counterexample could be one example or statement that satisfies the condition(s) of the statement but does not satisfy the conclusion.

2. QUIT WHILE YOU CAN Smoking has long been connected with serious diseases, such as lung cancer,
den301095 [7]

Using proportions, it is found that the life span of the person would be 14 years, 212 days and 22 hours shorter.

---------------------------

  • 2 packs a day for 35 years is 40 cigarettes a day for 12775 days, as 35 \times 365 = 12775.
  • Thus, a total of 511000 cigarettes, as 40 \times 12775 = 511000.
  • Assuming each cigarette costs 15 minutes of life, the person loses 7665000 minutes of life, as 15 \times 511000 = 7665000

  • One year has 525600 minutes, thus the person loses 14 years of life, as \frac{7665000}{525600} = 14.5833333
  • Looking at the decimal part, the person loses 212 days of life, as 0.5833333 \times 365 = 212.916666655
  • Again looking at the decimal part, 22 hours, as 0.916666655 \times 24 = 22

  • Thus, the person loses 14 years, 212 days and 22 hours of life.

The perimeter of this square is 20 inches.
Rashid [163]

Answer:

Amaya is wrong.

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of the square is 20 inches, which means each side of the square needs to add up to 20 inches. If the side length of that side Amaya pointed out is 4 inches, then the total perimeter would only be 18 inches, in another case, if they were talking about the area of the square/rectangle (now), it would be 20 inches. So, Amaya is wrong.
