Answer:
2nd debate was 3 hours long.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that during the mayoral election,two debates were held between the candidates. The first debate lasted 1 2/3 hours. The second one was 1 4/5 times as long as the first one.
Let us find the estimate of time spent on 2nd debate.
1 2/3 hours would be approximately 2 hours. 1 4/5 times would be equal to 2 times.
Therefore, the estimated time is less 4 hours.
To find the time spent on 2nd debate, we will multiply 1 2/3 by 1 4/5.
First of all, we will convert mixed fractions into improper fractions as:
Now, we will multiply both fractions as:
Therefore, the 2nd debate was 3 hours long.
Answer:
All 3 are right triangles.
Step-by-step explanation:
In a right triangle c^2 = a^2 + b^2 where c is the longest side. ( by Pythagoras).
a) 3^2 = 9, 6^2 = 36 and √27 ^ 2 = 27
36 = 9 + 27
So this is a right triangle.
b)
17^2 = 289, 15^2 = 225 and 8^2 = 64
289 = 225 + 64
Also right triangle.
c) √50 ^ 2 = 50, 5^2 = 25 and 5^2 = 25
So also right triangle.

0.02 is rational as it can be expressed as a finite decimal.
Answer:
9.93
Step-by-step explanation:
Secant-Tangent theorem tells us that the product of the secant segment with its external segment is equal to the square of the tangent segment.
From the diagram, we can say (let the unknown part of secant line, the part left of the segment length 5, be y):
(15+y)(10) = 17^2
Solving for y we get:
Now we can use the chord theorem to solve for x. Chord theorem tells us that when 2 intersecting chords create 4 segments, the product of the individual chord segments are equal. Thus we can say:
5 * 13.9 = 7 * x
Now solving, we get:
Thus x = 9.93
last answer choice is right.
