Answer:

224

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a committee of six Congressmen will be selected from a group of eight Republicans and four Democrats.

Total no of ways of selecting 6 persons from the given list

= taking 6 persons out of 12 persons

= 12C6\\=924

Favourable ways

= ways of selecting 3 republicians

= 3 republicians and 3 democrats

= 8C3(4C3)\\= 4(56)\\\\=224

the number of ways of obtaining a committee with exactly three Republicans.

= 224

In the figure, AB║CD and ∠EIA is congruent to ∠GJB Complete the following statements to prove that ∠IKL is congruent to ∠DLH.
Finger [1]

Here it is given that AB || CD

< EIA = <GJB

Now

∠EIA ≅ ∠IKC and ∠GJB is ≅ ∠ JLD (Corresponding angles)

∠EIA  ≅ ∠GJB then ∠IKC ≅ ∠ JLD (Substitution Property of Congruency)

∠IKL + ∠IKC 180° and ∠DLH +  ∠JLD =180° (Linear Pair Theorem)

So

m∠IKL + m∠IKC = 180°       ....(1)

But ∠IKC  ≅ ∠JLD

m∠IKC = m∠JLD (SUBTRACTION PROPERTY OF CONGRUENCY)

So we have

m∠IKL + m∠JLD = 180°

∠IKL and ∠JLD are supplementary angles.

But ∠DLH and ∠JLD are supplementary angles.

∠IKL ≅ ∠DLH (CONGRUENT SUPPLEMENTS THEOREM)

What is this number in standard form? (5×1,000)+(9×1)+(2×1/10)+(6×1/1,000)
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

5009.206

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>The answer is </u><em><u>5009.206</u></em>. We see that the first portion of this question asks, "(5×1,000)+(9×1)". 5x1000 is 5000. 9x1 is 9. 5000+9= 5009. The second portion of this question asks for the numbers that go after the decimal. 2x1/10 is 2/10. 6x1/1000 is 6/1000. The decimal place stands for one. So we do .206. If the decimal stands for ones that means in this case the 2 is in the tenths place (like it should be since the question asks for 2/10) and the 6 is in the 1000 place (like it should be since the question asks for 6/1000). We add this up together and our answer is 5009.206. Hope this explanation helps! Happy learning!
