I assume that you meant RS and ST are segments of RT.  If that is true then:

RS+ST=RT, using the values for these given...

8y+4+4y+8=36  combine like terms on left side

12y+12=36  subtract 12 from both sides

12y=24  divide both sides by 12

y=2

What is a percentage? What do we do with percentages?
Marianna [84]

Answer:

percentages are used like fractions and decimals, as ways to describe parts of a whole. For example, discounts in shops, bank interest rates, rates of inflation and many statistics in the media are expressed as percentages. Percentages are important for understanding the financial aspects of everyday life. When you are using percentages, the whole is considered to be made up of a hundred equal parts. The symbol % is used to show that a number is a percentage, and less commonly the abbreviation 'pct' may be used.

What are the coordinates of the midpoint of the line segment with endpoints R(4, -7) and S(-3, 5)?
bezimeni [28]

Answer:

  (1/2, -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The midpoint is the average of the end points:

  M = (R + S)/2 = ((4, -7) + (-3, 5))/2 = ((4-3)/2, (-7+5)/2) = (1/2, -2/2)

  M = (1/2, -1)

Need help in proving theorems of square please ASAP ​
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

The length of \overline{JO} is 48.

Step-by-step explanation:

A square is a quadrilateral whose four sides have the same length and four internal angles have the same measure. The sum of measures of internal angles in quadrilaterals equals 360°. Let m\,\angle BOJ = 4\cdot x -6 and BO = 2\cdot x - 8, the value of x is:

4\cdot (4\cdot x - 6) = 360^{\circ}

16\cdot x -24 = 360^{\circ}

16\cdot x = 384^{\circ}

x = 24

And the length of JO is:

JO = BO = 2\cdot x - 8

JO = 40

The length of \overline{JO} is 48.

Zinc has a density of 0.258 lb/in³ (pounds per cubic inch).
ollegr [7]

For this case we have that by definition the mass is given by:

m = D * V

Where,

  • <em>D: density </em>
  • <em>V: Volume </em>

The volume of a pyramid is given by:

V = \frac {1} {3} * A * h

Where,

  • <em>A: area of ​​the base </em>
  • <em>h: height </em>

Substituting values ​​we have:

V = \frac {1} {3} * (36) * (2.5)\\V = 30

We now calculate the mass:

m = (0.258) (30)\\m = 7.74\ lb

Answer:

he needs 7.74 pounds of zinc
