Answer:

Option D) 5/21 pizza is left.

Step-by-step explanation:

Bill has 2/3 of his pizza left from lunch. If he eats 3/7 more of pizza then we have calculate the pizza left.

Let the size of a pizza is x. Now 2x/3 pizza is left with Bill after lunch.

Therefore pizza eaten by Bill = x - 2x/3 = x/3

Now Bill eats 3/7 more of pizza has been eaten by Bill.Therefore total pizza left is

x - x/3 - 3x/7 = x(1 - 1/3 - 3/7) = x( 21 - 7 - 9)/21 = 5x/21

So 5/21 part of pizza is left.

How do you find the area of the missing side

Margaret [11]

Lets use a rectangle as the example because I dont know what kind of shape you're looking for.

Area of a rectangle = length * width

Length (l) = 62

Width (w) = x

Area = 744

744 = 62 * x

Divide both sides by 62

744/62 = 12

12 = x

That means the width would equal 12

12 * 62 = 744

M is the incenter of triangle ABC. Find the lengths of MD and DC. (Look at pic)

Deffense [45]

Answer:

Part 1) $MD=9\ units$

Part 2) $DC=12\ units$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Find the length of MD

we know that

The incenter is the intersection of the angle bisectors of the three vertices of the triangle. Is the point forming the origin of a circle inscribed inside the triangle

In this problem

$MD=ME=MF$ ------> is the radius of a circle inscribed inside the triangle

we have that

$MF=9\ units$

therefore

$ME=9\ units$

$MD=9\ units$

Step 2

Find the length of DC

we know that

In the right triangle MDC

Applying the Pythagoras theorem

$MC^{2} =MD^{2}+DC^{2}$

we have

$MD=9\ units$

$MC=15\ units$

substitute

$15^{2} =9^{2}+DC^{2}$

$DC^{2}=225-81$

$DC=\sqrt{144}\ units$

$DC=12\ units$
