Answer:

50%

Step-by-step explanation:

If there are 5 out of 10 marbles that are red, then there are $10-5 =5$ marbles that aren't red.

This makes the fraction $\frac{5}{10}$ . Converting a fraction to a percent is simple - divide the numerator by the denominator and multiply by 100.

$5 \div 10 = 0.5\\\\0.5 \cdot 100 = 50$

So 50% of the marbles aren't red.

Hope this helped!

The solution to 3x2 – 12x 24 = 0 is

zzz [600]

$3x^2 - 12x + 24 = 0 \\ x^2 - 4x + 8 = 0 \\ x= \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{ b^{2} -4ac} }{2a} 
$ ; where a = 1, b = -4 and c = 8
$x= \frac{-(-4) \pm \sqrt{ (-4)^{2} -4 \times 1 \times 8} }{2 \times 1} \\ = \frac{4 \pm \sqrt{ 16 -32} }{2} \\ =\frac{4 \pm \sqrt{ -16} }{2} \\ =\frac{4 \pm 4i }{2} \\ =2+2i \ or \ 2-2i$

How many triangles can be constructed with angles measuring 50º, 90º, and 40º?

NeX [460]

Answer: Infinite

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that in a triangle the sum of all the interior angles must be 180°.

The given angles 50º, 90º and 40º

The sum of the angles 50º+ 90º + 40º= 180°

Thus, a triangle is possible with the given measurement.,

Let there is another triangle with the given angles, then by AAA similarity criteria they are similar.

Similarly, all the triangles with the same measurements of the angles must be similar.

Therefore, there are infinite number of triangles can be possible with angles measuring 50º, 90º, and 40º.

Why is division by zero not allowed? Explain using your knowledge of how division is related to subtraction.

vivado [14]

Division by zero is an operation for which you cannot find an answer, so it is disallowed. You can understand why if you think about how division and multiplication are related. But no value would work for x because 0 times any number is 0. So division by zero doesn't work.
