Answer:

<h2>perimeter of △SMP = 25</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of the triangle △SMP is the sum of al the sides of the triangle.

Perimeter of △SMP = ||MS|| + ||MP|| + ||SP||

Note that the triangle △LRN, △LSM, △MPN and △SRP are all scalene triangles showing that their sides are different.

Given LM=9, NR=16 and SR=8

NR = NP+PR

Since NP = PR

NR = NP+NP

NR =2NP

NP = NR/2 = 16/2

NP = 8

From △LSM, NP = PR = MS = 8

Also since LM = MN, MN = 9

From △SRP, SR = RP = PS = 9

Also SR = MP = 8

From the equation above, perimeter of △SMP = ||MS|| + ||MP|| + ||SP||

perimeter of △SMP = 8+8+9

perimeter of △SMP = 25

A penny, nickel, and dime are simultaneously flipped. What is the probability that heads are showing on at least 6 cents worth o

Nastasia [14]

Answer:

5/8

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of possible outcomes after flipping 3 coins is $2 \times 2 \times 2 = 8$. If the dime isn't heads, we need both the penny and nickel to be heads. If the dime is heads, the other two could be anything. So there are a total of $1+(2 \times 2)=5$ ways for us to get at least 6 cents. The answer is $\boxed{\dfrac58}.$
