Determine the validity of the following argument: For students to do well in a discrete mathematics course, it is necessary that

they study hard. Students who do well in courses do not skip classes. Students who study hard do well in courses. Therefore students who do well in a discrete mathematics course do not skip class.

Answer: True

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p= Students who do well in course do not skip class

q= Student who study hard do well in course

So p^q= Student who study hard and who do well in course do not skip class.

If p= true and q=true then p^q= true by discrete maths.

Complete Question:

The deck that Amos is building is in the shape of a parallelogram, DGRY. The measure of D is five-halves the measure of Y. Find the measure of each angle of the deck.

Answer:

$\angle G = \angle Y = 51.43 ^{\circ}$

$\angle D = \angle R = 128.57 ^{\circ}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Shape: Parallelogram DGRY

Dimension: $\angle D = \frac{5}{2}\angle Y$

Required

Find the measure of each angle

D and R are opposite sides & G and Y are also opposite sides.

So, we have:

$\angle D = \angle R = \frac{5}{2}\angle Y$

and

$\angle G = \angle Y$

The sum of angles is given as:

$\angle D + \angle G + \angle R + \angle Y=360^{\circ}$

Substitute values for $\angle D, \angle G \ \& \angle R$

$\frac{5}{2}\angle Y + \frac{5}{2}\angle Y + \angle Y + \angle Y = 360^{\circ}$

Take LCM

$\frac{5\angle Y + 5\angle Y + 2\angle Y+ 2\angle Y}{2}= 360^{\circ}$

$\frac{14\angle Y}{2}= 360^{\circ}$

Multiply both sides by $\frac{2}{14}$

$\frac{2}{14} * \frac{14\angle Y}{2}= 360^{\circ} * \frac{2}{14}$

$\angle Y= 360^{\circ} * \frac{2}{14}$

$\angle Y= \frac{ 360^{\circ} *2}{14}$

$\angle Y= \frac{720^{\circ}}{14}$

$\angle Y= 51.43 ^{\circ}$

So:

$\angle G = \angle Y = 51.43 ^{\circ}$

$\angle D = \frac{5}{2}\angle Y$

$\angle D = \frac{5}{2} * 51.43^{\circ}$

$\angle D = \frac{5* 51.43^{\circ}}{2}$

$\angle D = \frac{257.15^{\circ}}{2}$

$\angle D = 128.57 ^{\circ}$

Hence:

$\angle D = \angle R = 128.57 ^{\circ}$

A soccer field is a rectangle 90 meters wide and 120 meters long. The coach asks players to run from one corner to the other cor

Scorpion4ik [409]

Take the width of the field (90 meters) and square it. Then take the length of the field (120 meters) and square it. The you add the two squares together and then find the square root of your answer. So basically 90^2 + 120^2 = 22500. then find the square root of 22500 which is 150 meters. 150 meters is your answer.
