Answer:

  no

Step-by-step explanation:

In ∆XYZ, we can write the ratios of the sides from shortest to longest as ...

  y : z : x = 1 : 1.5 : 2 = 2 : 3 : 4

In ∆QSR, we can write the ratios of the side lengths from shortest to longest as ...

  r : s : q = 0.5 : 1 : 1.5 = 1 : 2 : 3

Based on side lengths only, the triangles cannot be similar.

__

<em>Additional note</em>

Even if shortest-to-longest side ratios were the same, the triangle naming is incorrect for them to be similar.

Answer:

A. 5s+2

B. 8s+8

C. 75

D. 27

Step-by-step explanation:

Is difficult to read the exact expressions. If a mistake is present then fix the number and use the same method.

A. The perimeter of the square is all 4 equal sides added together. The length of a side is \frac{5s+2}{4}. Since there are four sides then:

P= \frac{5s+2}{4}+\frac{5s+2}{4}+\frac{5s+2}{4}+\frac{5s+2}{4} = 5s+2

Adding 1/4+1/4+1/4+1/4=1. This applies here leaving 5s+2 as the answer.

B. The perimeter of the rectangle is all four sides added together. A rectangle has two pairs of equal side so P = 2l+2w.

P = 2(s+9) + 2(3s-5)\\P = 2s+18 +6s-10\\P=8s+8

C. If s=5 then the sum of the two perimeters is:

5s+2+8s+8

5(5)+2+8(5)+8

25+2+40+8

75

D. Subtract the two perimeters by computing s=7:

8s+8 -(5s+2)

8s+8-5s-2

8(7)+8-5(7)-2

56+8-35-2

64-35-2

29-2

Bill measures the circumference of a circular fish pond to be 28 ft.

9ft? to get the circumference, we multiply the diameter to pi, so all we need to do is divide 28 ÷ π<span>, and round.</span>

216.4 is the total cost added up. 

198.77 would be the subtraction of the answer above with the hardware supplies but subtraction would be wrong so you'd have to divide, dividing would get you to 0.0814, the you'll have to divide the decimal by 100 giving you 0.0815.

Do the same steps above but with the paint and hardware. 

52.91/216.4 gives you 0.244501, rounded up would give you 0.000245.

Add those two totals together to get your answer, 0.081745.

Sorry if I'm wrong. Hope this helps!

What numbers are a distance of 4\6 unit from 3\6 on a number line?<br><br>Please help me out.
sweet [91]

The numbers that are a distance of 4/6 unit from 3/6 on a number line are -1/6 and 7/6

<h3>What is the distance on a Number Line?</h3>

We want to know what numbers are a distance of 4/6 unit from 3/6 on a number line.

Add 4/6 to 3/6, and also subtract 4/6 from 3/6. That will give the two numbers.

3/6 + 4/6 = 3/6 + 4/6 = 7/6

3/6 - 4/6 = -1/6

Thus, the numbers that are a distance of 4/6 unit from 3/6 on a number line are -1/6 and 7/6
