Answer:

1/8, 1/5, 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Imagine a pizza. If a whole pizza was divided into 3 pieces then the size of the pizzas would be pretty big. But if the pizza was divided into 8 pieces the size of the pizzas would be smaller.

1/8, 1/5, 1/3

Since the numerator is the same you look to the denominator to see which is bigger and smaller. 1/8 is the least because if a pie is cut into 8 pieces and you only get one your piece will be significantly smaller than if it is cut into 3 pieces and you get 1. 1/5 is then in the middle.

The table shows the gallons of water in a pool over time.
Valentin [98]

Answer:

6 gallons per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the function that models the quantities of water, Q (in gallons) in a pool over time, t (in minutes), is  

Q = a + bt ........... (1)

Now, Q(t = 0) is given to be 50 gallons.

So, a = 50 and b denotes the rate at which the quantity of water in the pool is decreasing and it is given by the slope of equation (1).

Now, two points on the graph are (0,50) and (1,44).

So, the slope = b =  = - 6 gallons per minute.

Therefore, the equation of this situation is given by Q = 50 - 6t, where the slope is equal to - 6 gallons per minute. (Answer)

Identify the triangle PQR as isosceles​ (two sides of equal​ length), equilateral​ (three sides of equal​ length), or a scalene
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

Isosceles

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to figure what type of triangle this is out, we need to start by plotting the given points. That will help us visualize the triangle better and see if our conclusions make sense. (See attached picture).

Once we got the triangle, the strategy to follow is to use the distance between two points formula to see what the measurement of each side of the triangle is. This will help us determine if 2, 3 or none of the sides of the tirangle are the same.

The distance formula is the following:

distance=\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^{2}+(y_{2}-y_{1})^{2}}

so now we can find the desired distances, let's start with the distance between P and Q:

|PQ|=\sqrt{(-4-0)^{2}+(9-8)^{2}}

which yields:

|PQ|=\sqrt{17}

next, let's find the distance between P and R:

|PR|=\sqrt{(-4-(-3))^{2}+(9-5)^{2}}

which yields:

|PR|=\sqrt{17}

and finally the distance between Q and R:

|QR|=\sqrt{(0-(-3))^{2}+(8-5)^{2}}

which yields:

|QR|=3\sqrt{2}

As you  may see from the result, only two of the three sides are the same, |PQ| and |PR|, so this will be an Isosceles triangle.
