When using a perpendicular director, why must the compass opening be greater than 1/2 the length of the segment

Mathematics
1 answer:

8 0

Because you want to draw 2 arcs ( by putting the point of the compass on each end of the line ) that intersect . If the opening was 1/2 or less than 1/2 of the length they would not intersect.

7(h-4)=2h+17 help plzz
S_A_V [24]
7(h-4) = 2h + 17         distribute to get:
7h - 28 = 2h + 17       subtract 2h from both sides to get:
5h - 28 = 17               add 28 to both sides to get:
5h = 45                      divide 5 from both sides to get:
h = 9

there are 3 slices of pie left, and the angle measurement is 72 degrees, how many slices was the pie cut in to
Daniel [21]
15; this is because 3 pies make up 72
with this you can make it so that 3x=72 
After this you need to find x which is a single pie
so; (3x/3)=(72/3)
      x= 24
Since you know a circle is 360 degrees all around the center
You can do 360/24 making it 15 pies.

The probability that a radish seed will germinate is 0.7. A gardener plants seeds in batches of 12. Find the mean for the number
Sever21 [200]

Answer:

mean = 8.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematically, we have the mean as np

This is the product of the number of items per batch by the probability that each of the products will germinate

Mathematically, we have this as:

0.7 * 12 = 8.4

A, B & C form the vertices of a triangle.
kirza4 [7]
<h3>Answer:  20.3</h3>

Work Shown:

tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent

tan(B) = AC/AB

tan(67) = x/8.6

8.6*tan(67) = x

x = 8.6*tan(67)

x = 20.2603303460843  ... make sure your calculator is in degree mode

x = 20.3  .... rounding to 3 significant figures

see diagram below
