What is the closest estimate for 179 divided by 9

jasenka [17]

Considering it's concept, it is found that the number of outcomes in the sample space is of 9.

<h3>What is the sample space of an experiment?</h3>

The sample space is the set that contains all possible outcomes for an experiment.

In this problem, there are 2 trials, each with 3 possible outcomes(red, blue or green), hence the number of possible outcomes is given by:

N = 3² = 9.

Last month, a dwarf lemon tree grew half as much as a semi-dwarf lemon tree. A full-size lemon tree grew three times as much as

dimulka [17.4K]

Answer: the dwarf tree grew by 3 inches.

the semi dwarf tree grew by 6 inches.

the full size tree grew by 18 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent how much the semi-dwarf lemon tree grew.

Last month, a dwarf lemon tree grew half as much as a semi-dwarf lemon tree. This means that the amount by which the dwarf lemon tree grew is expressed as x/2

A full-size lemon tree grew three times as much as the semi-dwarf lemon. This means that the amount by which the full-size lemon tree grew is expressed as 3x

Together, the three trees grew 27 inches. This means that

x/2 + x + 3x = 27

Cross multiplying by 2, it becomes

x + 2x + 6x = 54

9x = 54

x = 54/9

x = 6 inches

The dwarf tree grew by 6/2 = 3 inches.

The full-size lemon tree grew by 3 × 6 = 18 inches

Write the equation of the line that passes through each pair of points in slope-intercept form. This is worth 3 points. You have

LekaFEV [45]

(0,5)(3,-1)
slope = (-1 - 5) / (3 - 0) = -6/3 = -2

y = mx + b
slope(m) = -2
(use either of ur points...(0,5)...x = 0 and y = 5
now we sub and find b, the y int
5 = -2(0) + b
5 = b

so ur line is : y = -2x + 5

a city that has an elevation of 15 meters is closer to sea level than a city with an elevation of -10 true or false? explain you

12345 [234]

Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

At sea level, elevation is 0. This means that we can portray sea level as being the midpoint of distances below sea level and distances above sea level.

Thus, a distance of 1 m below sea level = - 1 is equivalent to a distance of 1 m above sea level albeit in opposite directions.

Hence, an elevation of 15m above sea level is greater in distance Than an elevation of - 10 m below sea level because the absolute value of 15 is greater than the absolute value of 10.

|15 - 0|= 15

|-10 - 0| = 10

Hence, elevation of - 10 below Sea level is closer to sea level than elevation of 15 above sea level

Answer:

$\overline {PM} \cong \overline {ON}$ because they are opposite sides of a parallelogram.

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, let us have a look at the definition of a parallelogram.

A parallelogram is a closed 4 sided figure (i.e. a quadrilateral) made up with two pairs of straight lines such that the two pairs are parallel and equal to each other.

For example, let us consider a quadrilateral ABCD as attached in the diagram in answer area.

The two pair of lines are:

AB, DC and BC, AD

For ABCD to be a parallelogram, the lines

AB and DC must be parallel to each other and AB = DC

AND

BC and AD must be parallel to each other and BC = DA

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

In the given question, we are given that the quadrilateral MNOP is a parallelogram.

The two pairs opposite lines are OP, NM and PM, ON.

As per the definition of a parallelogram,

OP and NM must be parallel and equal to each other.

AND

PM and ON must be parallel and equal to each other.

$\therefore$ $\overline {PM} \cong \overline {ON}$ .

Hence proved.
