Answer:

The width of the compass needs to be set to equal the radius of the circle.

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement that should be added to make this step correct is - The width of the compass needs to be set to equal the radius of the circle.

You can see the complete steps below:

1. Mark a point anywhere on the circle, which will be the first vertex of the hexagon.

2. Now set the compass on this vertex and set the width of the compass to the center of the circle. This setting is the radius of the circle.

3. Make an arc across the circle that will be the next vertex of the hexagon.

4. Now we will move the compass on to the next vertex and draw another arc. Now the third vertex of the hexagon will be drawn.

5. We continue the above step until we get all six vertices.

6. Lastly, we draw a line between each successive pairs of vertices. This forms the hexagon.

A vehicle is moving at a constant speed travels 45 miles in 3/4 hour. The driver thinks he will be late to a meeting that is sti

Ivahew [28]

The unit rate is 60 miles per hour and the driver will reach before time with the calculated constant speed

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Distance = d = 45 miles

Time = t = 3/4 hour

The unit rate is defined as the distance per unit time. In this case, the unit rate can also be called speed.

So,

$s = \frac{d}{t}\\s = \frac{45}{\frac{3}{4}}\\s = 45 * \frac{4}{3}\\s = 60\ miles\ per\ hour$

Using this unit rate we can see if the car can travel 65 miles in 1.25 hours or not

Given

Distance = d1 = 65 miles

Speed = s = 60 miles per hour

Putting the values in the formula for speed

$s = \frac{d_1}{t_1}\\60 = \frac{65}{t_1}\\t_1 = \frac{65}{60}\\t_1 = 1.08\ hours$

As we can see that 1.08 is less than 1.25 so the driver will reach the meeting before time if he drives on a constant speed of 60 miles per hour

Hence,

The unit rate is 60 miles per hour and the driver will reach before time with the calculated constant speed

The length of a board is 30.75 inches. Bradley cut the board into 3 smaller pieces that were all the same length. Which expressi

Harman [31]

Answer:

The length of each smaller piece, l=L/n inches

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be expressed as;

Total length=Length per piece×number of pieces

where;

The total length=L

length per piece=l

number of pieces=n

Substituting in the equation;

L=l×n

To get the length of each smaller piece;

l=L/n inches

solving;

l=30.75/3=10.25 inches

PLEASE ANSWER I GIVE BRAINLIEST write an equation of a line with m=6 that passes through (7,-5)

iren [92.7K]

Answer:

y = 6x - 47

6x - y - 47 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

$y - y_{1} = m(x - x_{1} ) \\ \\ plug \: x_{1} = 7 \\ y_{1} = - 5 \\ m = 6 \: in \: the \: above \: equation \\ y - ( - 5) = 6(x - 7) \\ \\ y + 5 = 6x - 42 \\ \\ y = 6x - 42 - 5 \\ \\ y = 6x - 47 \\ \\ or \: 6x - y - 47 = 0$
