7 * 38 + 3*45 - 56
use order of operations
(7*38) + (3*45) - 56
266 + 135 - 56
=345
Parallel: the lines have = slopes. We thus need 5/6 to equal 2/p. then 5p must equal 12, and p = 12/5. (answer)
Check: Is 5/6 = 2 / (12/5)? YES
Perp.: The lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals of one another.
Then -6/5 = 2/p, or
-6 2
---- = ----
5 p Thus, -6p = 10, and p = -5/3 (answer)
Answer:
0.5 < x < 16.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The third side of the triangle must be longer than the difference of the other two sides:
x > (8.5 -8.0)
x > 0.5
And it must be shorter than their sum:
x < (8.5 +8.0)
x < 16.5
The third side must be in the range ...
0.5 < x < 16.5
_____
These limits are a direct consequence of the triangle inequality, which requires the sum of the two shortest sides exceed the length of the longest side.
75% of 86ft would be 64.5
Hope this helps. :)
