8 0

414 is 92% of 450

Therfore, when you subtract 100 - 92

It equals 8

8% is the answer.

Answer:

5C 6D

Step-by-step explanation:

5, a^2 = b^2 + c^2

6,

A is wrong because two distinct lines intersect at 1 point only or 0 (they will never intersect when they are parallel)

B & C are wrong because lines contain infinite point

E is wrong because 2 parallel lines will never intersect, as the result, their common points = 0

ahrayia [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of the angles of a triangle is ALWAYS 180°.

2x+3x+5x = 180°

10x = 180°

x = 18°

2x = 36°

3x = 54°

5x = 90°

The angles are 36°, 54°, and 90°

ANSWER

Step 3

EXPLANATION

The given polynomial expression is:

$2 {p}^{2} - 3p - 7 - (3 {p}^{2} + p - 5)$

Fatau correctly expanded the parenthesis in the first step.

$2 {p}^{2} - 3p - 7 - 3 {p}^{2} - p + 5$

Fatau also correctly grouped the like terms to obtain:

$(2- 3) {p}^{2} + (- 3 - 1)p + (- 7 + 5)$

Fatau committed a mistake at the third step.

Instead of obtaining,

$- {p}^{2} - 4p - 2$

He mistakenly got:

${p}^{2} - 2p +2$
