Answer:

The position of the three cities do not form a right-triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are three cities on a map (say A, B, and C).

Now, the distances between them are 45 miles, 56 miles, and 72 miles.

i.e. AB= 45 miles, BC= 56 miles and CA =72 miles.

If the three cities A, B, C form a right-angled triangle on the map, then applying Pythagoras Theorem AB² +BC² =AC²

or, AC= √(AB² +BC²) must be satisfied.

Now, right-hand side of the above equation =√(45²+56²) =71.84 ≠ 72 (AC)

Hence, Right-hand side ≠ Left-hand side.

Therefore, the positions of the three cities do not form a right triangle. (Answer)

Jorge bought 6 large balloons for a party. This was 25% of all the balloons he bought. How many total balloons did Jorge buy sho
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

The answer would be 24 balloons in total.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jorge bought 6 large balloons, which was 25% of ALL the balloons he bought.

Meaning that since 6 is 25% of the number 24, he bought 24 balloons in total.

PROOF:

25% * 24 = 6

24 / 6 = 4

6 * 4 = 24

What is the value of 6x-3x +7 if x=9?
Lynna [10]

6x - 3x + 7 \\ 3x + 7 \\ 3(9) + 7 \\ 27 + 7 \\  = 34
Combine like terms and "plug in" x into the equation to eventually get 34 after some addition
