Hello There!

Orange to Green is:
2: 5
5 + 2 = 7
21/7 = 3
2 x 3 = 6
5 x 3 = 15

In short, there are 6 orange picks.

Hope This Helps You!
Good Luck :)

A. The average yearly salary of a lawyer is $24 thousand less than twice that of an architect.

erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

The average yearly salary of the architect is $62,000 and the lawyer is $100,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The average yearly salary of a lawyer is $24 thousand less than twice that of an architect.

Combined, an architect and a lawyer earn $ 210 thousand.

Now, to find the average yearly salary of an architect and a lawyer.

Let the average yearly salary of an architect be $x.$

So, the average yearly salary of the lawyer = $2x-24,000.$

Combined, architect and lawyer earn = $\$210,000.$

Now, to get the average salary of the architect and lawyer:

$x+(2x-24000)=210000$

$x+2x-24000=210000\\\\3x-24000=210000$

Adding both sides 24000 we get:

$3x=186,000\\\\Dividing\ both\ sides\ by\ 3\ we\ get:\\\\x=62000.$

The average salary of architect = $62,000.

Now, to get the average salary of lawyer by substituting the value of $x$ :

$2x-24000\\\\=2(62000)-24000\\\\=124000-24000\\\\=\$100,000.$

The average salary of lawyer = $100,000.

Therefore, the average yearly salary of the architect is $62,000 and the lawyer is $100,000.

What is the solution to the inequality |2n+5| > 1 ?

Serhud [2]

Answer:

n > -2 or n < -3

Step-by-step explanation:

|2n+5| > 1

We have two solutions one positive and one negative. Remember to flip the inequality symbol for the negative

2n+5 > 1 or 2n+5 < -1

Subtract 5 from each side

2n+5-5 > 1-5 2n+5 -5 < -1 -5

2n >-4 2n < -6

Divide by 2

2n/2 > -4/2 2n/2 < -6/2

n > -2 or n < -3

If triangle CAT is similar to triangle DOG, which of the following statements is incorrect?

jeyben [28]

Answer:

1. triangle TCA ~ triangle GOD

4. If TC/GD=3/2, then m<T/m<G=3/2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The statements of the question are

1. triangle TCA ~ triangle GOD

2. AT: OG= AC:OD

3. If TC/GD=3/2, then AC/OD=3/2.

4. If TC/GD=3/2, then m<T/m<G=3/2.

5. If the scale factor of triangle CAT to triangle DOG is 3 to 2, then the scale factor of triangle DOG to triangle CAT is 2 to 3.

6. If AC is twice as long as AT, then OD is twice as long as OG

Verify each statement

1) triangle TCA ~ triangle GOD

we know that

If two triangles are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional and its corresponding angles are congruent

In this problem

triangle CAT ~ triangle DOG -----> is given

Reorder

Corresponding sides are named using pairs of letters in the same position on either side of the congruence statement

triangle TCA ~ triangle GDO

therefore

The statement is not correct

2). AT: OG= AC:OD

we know that

If two triangles are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional and its corresponding angles are congruent

In this problem

triangle CAT ~ triangle DOG -----> is given

Applying proportion

$\frac{AT}{OG}=\frac{AC}{OD}=\frac{TC}{GD}$

The statement is true

3). If TC/GD=3/2, then AC/OD=3/2.

we have that

$\frac{AT}{OG}=\frac{AC}{OD}=\frac{TC}{GD}$ ---> see part 2)

$\frac{TC}{GD}=\frac{AC}{OD}$

therefore

The statement is true

4). If TC/GD=3/2, then m<T/m<G=3/2

Remember that

In two similar triangles, corresponding angles are congruent

$m\angle T=m\angle G$

$m\angle T/m\angle G=1$

therefore

The statement is false

5). If the scale factor of triangle CAT to triangle DOG is 3 to 2, then the scale factor of triangle DOG to triangle CAT is 2 to 3

we know that

If the scale factor of triangle CAT to triangle DOG is a/b. then the scale factor of triangle DOG to triangle CAT is b/a

The scale factor will be the reciprocal

therefore

The statement is true

6). If AC is twice as long as AT, then OD is twice as long as OG

we know that

$\frac{AT}{OG}=\frac{AC}{OD}$

Reorder

$\frac{AT}{AC}=\frac{OG}{OD}$

If AC is twice as long as AT ----> AC=2AT

If OD is twice as long as OG ----> OD=2OG

substitute

$\frac{AT}{2AT}=\frac{OG}{2OG}$

simplify

$\frac{1}{2}=\frac{1}{2}$ ----> is true

therefore

The statement is true
