Add one set of parenthesis to make the following equation true 25 - 8 - 2 = 19

1 answer:

7 0

An easy way to do this is to do trial and error.

All possible places to put the bracket:

a) (25 - 8) - 2 = 19 But since BEDMAS goes from left to right with Addition and Subtraction, the equation is unaffected.
b) 25 - (8 - 2) = 19
25 - 6 = 19

Therefore b) is correct.

The perimeter represents the amount of wood needed and the area represents the amount of class needed.

so 2*(2/3) + 2(2) = 4/3 + 4= 4 4/3 or 5 1/3 wood is needed for the border.

for the mirror, you will need the area= 4/3 * 2 = 8/3 sq yds or 2 2/3 sq yards is needed.

A right △ABC is inscribed in circle k(O, r). Find the radius of this circle if:

natta225 [31]

We have been given that a right △ABC is inscribed in circle k(O, r).

m∠C = 90°, AC = 18 cm, m∠B = 30°. We are asked to find the radius of the circle.

First of all, we will draw a diagram that represent the given scenario.

We can see from the attached file that AB is diameter of circle O and it a hypotenuse of triangle ABC.

We will use sine to find side AB.

$\text{sin}=\frac{\text{Opposite}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}$
