Hey there!

Let's pull out the multiples of each number and see which ones fall in line first.

9,18

6,12,18

The LCM is 18. Therefore, answer B and D are incorrect. A is incorrect because 9 * 6 is 54. Therefore, the answer is C.

I hope this helps!

Answer: c

Step-by-step explanation: while 9X6 does equal 54 it is not the least common multiple considering they both multiply into the number 18

Find the area of each regular polygon. Round your answer to the nearest tenth if necessary.

tatuchka [14]

*I am assuming that the hexagons in all questions are regular and the triangle in (24) is equilateral*

(21)

Area of a Regular Hexagon: $\frac{3\sqrt{3}}{2}(side)^{2} = \frac{3\sqrt{3}}{2}*(\frac{20\sqrt{3} }{3} )^{2} =200\sqrt{3}$ square units

(22)

Similar to (21)

Area = $216\sqrt{3}$ square units

(23)

For this case, we will have to consider the relation between the side and inradius of the hexagon. Since, a hexagon is basically a combination of six equilateral triangles, the inradius of the hexagon is basically the altitude of one of the six equilateral triangles. The relation between altitude of an equilateral triangle and its side is given by:

$altitude=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}*side$

$side = \frac{36}{\sqrt{3}}$

Hence, area of the hexagon will be: $648\sqrt{3}$ square units

(24)

Given is the inradius of an equilateral triangle.

$Inradius = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{6}*side$

Substituting the value of inradius and calculating the length of the side of the equilateral triangle:

Side = 16 units

Area of equilateral triangle = $\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}*(side)^{2} = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}*256 = 64\sqrt{3}$ square units

P + nx=rx-e (solve for x)

lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

(p+e)/(r-n) = x

Step-by-step explanation:

p + nx=rx-e

Add e to each side

p +e+ nx=rx-e+e

p +e+ nx=rx

Subtract nx from each side

p +e+ nx - nx=rx-nx

p+e = rx -nx

Factor out x

p+e = x(r-n)

Divide each side by (r-n)

(p+e)/(r-n) = x(r-n)/(r-n)

(p+e)/(r-n) = x

On a biology test, Travis got 29 questions correct but did not pass. On a second attempt, he got 38 questions correct. What was

maxonik [38]

Answer:
We know that his first attempt he got 29 questions correct, yet he didn’t pass & the second attempt he got 38 questions correct.
So, If i’m not wrong the percentage increase is 10% [Rounded].

Explanation:
38 - 29 = 9
9 rounded to the nearest tenth is 10%.
Forgive me if I’m wrong, good luck! ^^

Which additional information could be used to prove that the triangles are congruent using AAS or ASA? Check all that apply.

Ad libitum [116K]

Consider the given triangles.

Given: $\angle C \cong \angle Q$

ASA congruence criterion states that if two angles and the included side of one triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.

AAS congruence criterion states that if two angles and a non-included side of one triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.

Consider the first part:

1. In triangles ABC and QPT

If we take $\angle B \cong \angle P , BC \cong PQ$ along with the given condition.

Then the triangles are congruent by ASA congruence criterion.

2. If we take $\angle A \cong \angle T$ and $AC= TQ=3.2$ along with the given condition.

Then the triangles are congruent by ASA congruence criterion.

3. As, $\angle C \cong \angle Q$ , $\angle A \cong \angle T$ and $\angle B \cong \angle P$ , so the triangles can not be congruent.

4. If we take $\angle A \cong \angle T$ and $BC \cong PQ$ along with the given condition.

Then the triangles are congruent by AAS congruence criterion.

5. If we take AC=TQ=3.2 and CB=QP=3.2 along with the given condition, then the triangles are congruent but by SAS congruence criteria neither by ASA nor AAS congruence criterion.
