Answer:

The distance between P and Q is 54

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that triangle RPQ is similar to triangle RTS.

Property of similar triangle: The ratio of any pair of corresponding sides is the same.

So, by property : \frac{RP}{RT}=\frac{PQ}{ST}

PR=42

PQ=x

ST=36

RT=28

So,\frac{42}{28}=\frac{x}{36}

\frac{42 \times 36}{28}=x

54=x

Hence the distance between P and Q is 54

If a number is a whole number then it is also a natural number
Step2247 [10]

This statement is not true.

If a number is whole number, it will not always be a natural number. An example of a whole number that is not a natural number is 0. Think of natural numbers as counting number so 1, 2, 3, 4, ... and so on. Whole numbers are natural numbers but they also include 0. When we count up, we usually don’t starts with 0 so it’s not a natural number but it is a whole number.

Therefore, if a number is a whole number, it does not necessarily have to be a natural number.

There is a bag with only milk and dark chocolates.
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

12 milk chocolates.

Step-by-step explanation:

-We know that probabilities add upto 1:

P(milk)+P(dark)=1\\\\P(milk)+\frac{7}{9}=1\\\\P(milk)=\frac{2}{9}

Let X be the total number of chocolates. We know that probability is the successful events divided by the total number of events:

P(dark)=\frac{dark \ events}{total \ events}\\\\\\\frac{7}{9}=\frac{42}{X}\\\\X=54

#We subtract the number of dark chocolates from X to get the number of milk chocolates:

N_m=X-N_d\\\\=54-42\\\\=12

Hence, there must be 12 milk chocolates.

Prove that the difference of two odd integers is even. give a justification at each step.
crimeas [40]
Let a, b be two odd integers. Then both can be written as

a=2k-1, k is an integer
b=2m-1, m is an integer

So,

a-b=2k-1-(2m-1)=2k-2m-2=2(k-m-1)

Since, k and m and 1 are all integers, then (k-m-1) is also an integer. Hence, 2(k-m-1) is an even integer.

Thus, a-b is even.
