Answer:

no because there are also right angles. an obtuse angle can best be defined as an angle greater than 90 degrees and less than 180 degrees

Answer:

Ebony's definition is not valid.

Step-by-step explanation:

Obtuse angle is an angle that measures more than 90 degrees but less than 180 degrees.

And acute angles measure more than zero degrees and less than 90 degrees.

We know that a right triangle is neither acute nor obtuse.

As Ebony has not mentioned right angles, so her definition is not valid.

44.132%

Step-by-step explanation:

This is binomial

fewer than 3 is equal to p(0)+p(1)+p(2)

$p(0)={19\choose0}*.15^0*(1-.15)^{19}=.045599448\\p(1)={19\choose1}*.15^1*(1-.15)^{18}=.152892268\\p(2)={19\choose2}*.15^2*(1-.15)^{17}=.242828896\\p(0)+p(1)+p(2)=.441320612$

In 1997 there were 31 laptop computers at grove high school. starting in 1998 the school bought 20 more laptop computers at the

Ksenya-84 [330]

We have equation:
t=20x+31
x is number of years after 1997.

To calculate number of laptops in 2005:
x=2005-1997
x=8

t=20*8+31
t=160+31
t=191

In year 2005 school had 191 laptops.

∠A and ∠B are vertical angles. If m∠A=(3x-30)° and m∠B=(2x-9)°,then find the value of x.

olganol [36]

Answer:

x = 21°

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertical angles have the same measures, therefore:

3x - 30 = 2x - 9

x - 30 = -9

x = 21°

A right square prism has a volume of 75 cubic inches. The prism is enlarged so its height is increased by a factor of 5, but the

kvasek [131]

Answer:

The new volume is 375 cubic inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a right square prism:

The volume of a right square prism is given by:

$V = a^2h$

In which a is the length of the edge and h is the height.

A right square prism has a volume of 75 cubic inches.

This means that:

$a^2h = 75$

The prism is enlarged so its height is increased by a factor of 5

Edge is the same, height is 5 times. So

$a^2(5h) = 5(a^2h) = 5*75 = 375$

The new volume is 375 cubic inches.
