Answer:

4 quarts

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a container of fruit punch serves 16 cups and we are to find the number of quarts that are in a container.

For this, we will use the ratio method.

We know that, 1 cup = 0.25 quarts, so:

$\frac { 1 cup } { 1 6 cups } = \frac { 0 . 2 5 quarts } { x }$

$x = 1 6 \times 0 . 2 5$

$x=4 quarts$

Therefore, there are 4 quarts of fruit punch in the container.

Answer:

it depends on what he means

Step-by-step explanation:

The friend needs to clarify the meaning of "if three lines intersect each other." If Line A intersects lines B and C, there will be two points of intersection, one at line B and one at line C.

If those lines are all in the same plane, and B and C are not parallel, so that line B intersects line C, then there will be a total of three points of intersection.

If the point of intersection of B and C is also the point where line A intersects them, then there will be only one point of intersection.

So, if the meaning is "if there are three non-parallel lines in the same plane, and each intersects the other two", then the Line Intersection Postulate guarantees there will be 1 or 3 points of intersection.

If the meaning is "if there are three lines not necessarily in the same plane, and one intersects the other two (but those two don't intersect each other)", then there may be 1 or 2 points of intersection (allowing that all lines may intersect at the same point).

can someone help me understand this, please? For some reason my answer is correct but I need to understand how did I found the c

Answer with step-by-step explanation:

The way the question is worded, this actually shouldn't be correct. The correct answer should be $3:4$ .

Because the trapezoids are similar, we can find the ratio of their perimeters by actually just finding the ratio of their sides.

Why?

By definition, the corresponding sides of a polygon are in a constant proportion. The perimeter is simply the sum of all sides of the polygon. Since we're just adding the sides, the proportion will still be maintained.

Therefore, we'll just need to ratio of their corresponding sides. The only two corresponding sides that are marked are $\overline{RS}$ and $\overline{AB}$ .

The ratio of $\overline{RS}:\overline{AB}$ is $18:24\implies \boxed{3:4}$ .

The reason why it ideally should be $3:4$ and not $4:3$ is because the question states $RTSU\sim ABCD$ , which mentions $RSTU$ first, so our answer should follow this respective order. I believe you were marked right anyways because the specific order is not specified, but generally, you want to give your answer respectively by default.
