How will you teach a child about 8/10*1
NARA [144]
Just as how you would teach multiplication to any child in the beginning. There is 1 set of 2 pencils. 1 * 2 = 2 pencils. There are 2 sets of pencils. 2 * 2 = 4 pencils. You would apply the same concept to 8/10 that any number multiplied by 1 is itself.

The formula for an arithmetic sequence is An=A1+(n-1)d. 
Using this knowledge, you can set up the equation easily to be An=1+(12-1)-5
You then simplify this to 1-55 using PEMDAS, giving you the answer for the twelfth term being -54, you then do this for every term if you want (or you could just subtract 5 by the terms after 14 till you get to -54. After all that, you add the twelve terms up to get -319 as your final answer

Surveyors need to measure the distance across a pond. they created similar triangles in this picture.
leonid [27]

Answer:

Therefore the Distance across the Pond is

x=391\ ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Triangle are Similar

AB = 90 ft

AC = 170 ft

BD = 207 ft

DE = x

To Find:

x = ?

Solution:

In Δ ABC and Δ DBE

∠A ≅ ∠D …………..{ measure of each angle is 90° given }  

∠ABC ≅ ∠DBE ……….....{Vertical Angle Theorem}  

Δ ABC ~ Δ DBE ….{Angle-Angle Similarity test}  

If two triangles are similar then their sides are in proportion.  

\dfrac{AB}{DB} =\dfrac{AC}{DE} \textrm{corresponding sides of similar triangles are in proportion}\\  

Substituting the values we get

\dfrac{90}{207} =\dfrac{170}{x}\\\\x=23\times 17=391\ ft

Therefore the Distance across the Pond is

x=391\ ft
