Answer:

Dawn has 32 pens.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Let No. of pens Alice has = A
  • Let No. of pens Maurice has = M
  • Let no of pens Paul has = P
  • Let no. of pens Suzy has = S
  • Let no of pens Dawn has = D

Given :

  • A = 7M
  • P = 2/3 (A + S)  
  • D = P + 12
  • S = 1/2 M
  • If S = 2 {Given}
  • M = 4    [∵ S = 1/2 M → M = 2S = 2X(2) ]
  • A = 28  [ ∵ A = 7M → A = 7 x 4 ]
  • P = 20  [∵ P = 2/3 (A+S) → P = 2/3 (28 + 2) = 2/3 (30) ]
  • D = 32  [ ∵ D = P + 12 → D = 20 + 12 ]

vladimir1956 [14]
9/50 is close to 10/50 or 1/5 or 0.2
7/15 is close to 7/14 or 1/2 or 0.5
0.2 + 0.5 = 0.7
0.7 is closer to 0.5 than 1
The answer would be B

We know that

A line tangent to a circle is perpendicular to the radius to the point of tangency.
so
<span>Line ef is </span>perpendicular to the segment gh

hence
Triangle FHG is a right triangle

The midpoint of chord AB is ( , ), and the slope of chord AB is
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

See solution below

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the coordinate's of A and B be (1, 0) and (2,4) respectively

midpoint M (X, Y) = [(x1+x2/2, y1+y2/2)]

X = x1+x2/2

X = 1+2/2

X = 3/2

X = 1.5

Y = y1+y2/2

Y = 0+4/2

Y = 4/2

Y = 2

Hence the required midpoint (X, Y) is (1.5, 2)

Slope m = y2-y1/x2-x1

m = 4-0/2-1

m = 4/1

m = 4

Hence the slope is 4

<em>Note that the coordinates are assumed but the same calculation can be employed for any other coordinates</em>

scoray [572]
First find the area of the large rectangle which is 90 by you times 3 and 3 which is 9 then you times 5 and 2 which is 10 after that u times 9 and 10 which is 90 So to make the small rectangle times 6 and 15 because 3 times 2 equals 6 and 5 times 3 equals 10 so that means the area of one small rectangle is 6 and the other rectangle us 15 then u multiple
