Answer:

D. construct an arc with center P that intersects segment AB in two points.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Ruthie wants to construct a line that passes through point P and is perpendicular to AB

To Find : What should Ruthie do first?

Solution :

Her first step should be :

D. construct an arc with center P that intersects segment AB in two points.

Accurate steps.

1.Place the compasses on the given external point P.construct an arc with center P that intersects segment AB in two points.

2.From each arc on AB draw an arc below the line so that the resultant arcs cross each other.

3.Place a straightedge between P and the point where the arcs intersect. Draw the perpendicular line from P to the line,

Thus the first step should be : D. construct an arc with center P that intersects segment AB in two points.

In hopes of encouraging healthier snacks at school, Zack brought in a tray of carrot sticks and apple slices to share. The tray
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

48% were carrot sticks.

52% were apple slices.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Total number of snacks in the tray = 25

Number of carrot sticks = 12

Number of apple slices = 25 - 12 = 13

Percent of carrot sticks = \frac{Number\ of\ carrot\ sticks}{Total\ Number}*100

Percent of carrot sticks= \frac{12}{25}*100

Percent of carrot sticks = 0.48 * 100 = 48%

Percent of apple slices = \frac{13}{25}*100

Percent of apple slices = 52%

Hence,

48% were carrot sticks.

52% were apple slices.
