A student wants to know the approximate distance between London and Beijing. Using a string, she finds that the distance on a gl

obe between London and Beijing is about 36 centimeters and between London and New York is about 22 centimeters. The actual distance between London and New York is about 5000 kilometers. If she lets d represent the approximate distance in kilometers between London and Beijing, what is d rounded to the nearest whole number?

Answer:

8182 kilometers

Step-by-step explanation:

A correct proportion to use is 22 over 5,000 = 36 over d

Cross multiply to get 22d = 5,000 x 36. Then, solve d. d = 8181.81.......so the approximate distance rounded to the nearest whole number from London to Beijing is 8182 kilometers.

Hope This Is Right.....

Answer: 8182

Step-by-step explanation: a good proportion to use is 22 over 5000= 36 over the mystery number.( in this case, we will use D). then we cross multiply 22xd=5000x36. then we solve for D which is about 8181.81. therefore the rounded answer is 8182.

hope this was helpful!

There were 75 roasted turkeys at Ally's Eats. Bob's Goods had 4/5 as many roasted turkeys as Ally's Eats. If Ally's Eats had 5/6
Sever21 [200]

Answer:

75 roasted turkeys.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ally's Eats had 75 roasted turkeys.

Bob's Goods had 4/5 as many roasted turkeys as Ally's Eats, hence, the number of roasted turkeys Bob's Goods had is:

4/5 * 75 = 60 roasted turkeys

Ally's Eats had 5/6 as many roasted turkeys as Charlotte's Market. In other words, Charlotte's market had 6/5 as many roasted turkeys as Ally's Eats:

6/5 * 75 = 90 roasted turkeys.

The average is given as the sum of all toasted turkeys in the three shops divided by 3. Hence:

A = (75 + 60 + 90) / 3

A = 225 / 3 = 75 roasted turkeys

The average number of roasted turkeys in the three shops is 75.

Plz explain and prove the triangles congruence.
ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

The explanation is given below with the diagram.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Δ ABC is an Isosceles triangle with base AB.

D is the midpoint of AB

∴ AD = BD

To Prove:

\angle ACD \cong \angle BCD

Proof:

Isosceles triangle property:

If Δ ABC is an Isosceles triangle with base AB, then the two sides are congruent and the base angles are congruent.

\therefore \overline{AC} \cong \overline {BC}\ and\\\therefore \angle CAD} \cong \angle CBD

In\ \triangle ACD\ and\ \triangle BCD\\\overline{AC} \cong \overline{BC}\ \textrm{ Two sides of Isosceles Triangle are congruent}\\\angle CAD \cong \angle CBD\ \textrm{Base angles of Isosceles Triangle are congruent }\\\overline{AD} \cong \overline{BD}\ \textrm{ D is the midpoint of AB given}\\\therefore \triangle ACD \cong \triangle BCD\ \textrm{ By Side-Angle-Side test}\\\therefore \angle ACD \cong \angle BCD\ \textrm{corresponding parts(angles) of congruent triangles}\\

\therefore \angle ACD \cong \angle BCD\ \textrm{ Proved}
