B=blue
g=green
r=red
2 times as many blue as green
b=2g
3 times as many red as blue
r=3b
subsitute 2g for b
r=3(2g)=6g
r=6g

r+g+b=765
so we subsitute
r=6g
g=g
b=2g

6g+g+2g=765
add like terms
9g=765
divide both sides by 9
g=85
subsitute
b=2b
b=2(85)
b=170

170 blue

Han wrote a proof that triangle BCD is congruent to triangle DAB. Han's proof is incomplete. Which step is missing some informat
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

From the image, we can see that DC is parallel to AB.

Step 1:

Alternate interior angles are angles formed at the inner corners of intersection on opposite sides of transversal when two parallel lines are intersected by a transversal.

Since Line AB is parallel to line DC and cut by transversal DB. So angles CDB and ABD are alternate interior angles and must be congruent.

Step 2:

DB ≅ BD (reflexive property of congruence)

Step 3:

∠A = ∠C = 90° (right angles, given). But to prove that both triangles are congruent, the correct step 3 is:

Since, ∠A = ∠C = 90° and angles CDB and ABD are congruent. This means that the third angles in the both triangles are also congruent. Hence, angle ADB and CBD are must be congruent.

Step 4:

BD = DB, angles CDB and ABD  are congruent, angle ADB and CBD are congruent.

Therefore,  By the Angle-Side-Angle Triangle Congruence Theorem, triangle BCD is congruent to triangle DAB .

24 students will be divided into 4 equal size terms. Each stundent will count off, beginning with the number 1 as the first team
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

Nate is in Group 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of students is 24.

These 24 students are divided equally among 4 groups.

Compute the number of students in each group:

Number of students in each group =\frac{24}{4}=6

Thus, there will be 6 groups.

Now the students are numbered with the first student in the first group numbered as 1.

The groups will be:

Group 1: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6

Group 2: 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12

Group 3: 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18

Group 4: 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24

It is provided that Nate is the 11th student.

Then Nate is in group 2.

Suppose that z=6^500. Express the following in terms of z.
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

1. z^2

2. 14z

Step-by-step explanation:

  • We know that (a^m)^n = a^(mn) = (a^n) ^m

We also know that (a^m)(a^n) = a^(m+n)

  1. 36 can be written as 6^2 and here 36^(500) can be written as (6^2)^500 which also can be written as (6^500)^2 and as already it is mentioned that 6^500 as z we can write the above as <u>z^2</u>

2. 8 x 6^500 = 8z

And we can also write 6^(501) as 6^(500+1) which is equivalent to 6(6^500) which is 6z.

From the above we can make sure that the question is the sum of the above which is 8z + 6z = <u>14z</u><u>.</u>
