Answer: Infinite

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that in a triangle the sum of all the interior angles must be 180°.

The given angles 50º, 90º and 40º

The sum of the angles 50º+ 90º + 40º= 180°

Thus, a triangle is possible with the given measurement.,

Let there is another triangle with the given angles, then by AAA similarity criteria they are similar.

Similarly, all the triangles with the same measurements of the angles must be similar.

Therefore, there are infinite number of triangles can be possible with angles measuring 50º, 90º, and 40º.

If the angles of the triangle are 50, 90, 40 degrees, then only one triangle can be constructed, because if you change the sides the angles would change.

A vehicle uses 1 1/8 gallons of gasoline to travel 13 1/2 miles. At this rate, how many miles can the vehicle travel per gallon

Vesna [10]

We know that
1 1/8 gallons----------> (1*8+1)/8-------> 9/8 gallons
13 1/2 miles----------> (13*2+1)/2-------> 27/2 miles

if 9/8 gallons-------------------> 27/2 miles
1 gallons----------------------> X
X=(27/2)/(9/8)---------> 216/18--------> 12 miles

the answer is 12 miles

Solve for x. 3^x−1=9^x+2 Enter your answer in the box.

slava [35]

Answer:

-5 =x

Step-by-step explanation:

3^(x-1) = 9^(x+2)

Replace 9 with 3^2

3^(x-1) = 3^2^(x+2)

We know that a power to a power means the powers are multiplied

a^b^c = a^(b*c)

3^(x-1) = 3^(2x+2)

When the bases are the same, the powers have to be the same

x-1 = 2x+4

Subtract x from each side

x-x-1 =2x-x+4

-1 =x+4

Subtract 4 from each side

-1-4 =x+4-4

-1-4 = x

-5 =x

The box plots below show student grades on the most recent exam compared to overall grades in the class:

svetlana [45]

he box plots below show attendance at a local movie theater and high school basketball games: two box plots shown. The top one is labeled Movies. Minimum at 60, Q1 at 65, median at 95, Q3 at 125, maximum at 150. The bottom box plot is labeled Basketball games. Minimum at 90, Q1 at 95, median at 125, Q3 at 145, maximum at 150. Which of the following best describes how to measure the spread of the data? The IQR is a better measure of spread for movies than it is for basketball games. The standard deviation is a better measure of spread for movies than it is for basketball games. The IQR is the best measurement of spread for games and movies. The standard deviation is the best measurement of spread for games and movies.
