First use the compass to make a circle on the line then move the compass and do it again so that the circles cross. use the straight edge to make a line through where the circles intersect and you're finished.

Place compass needle  on external point R

Make compass width greater than distance from R to given line

Draw arc cutting given at 2 points

Mark / label points of intersection P and Q

Don't change compass width, move compass needle to Q, draw another arc below line crossing previous arc

Move compass needle to P , make arc below line

Mark / label point of intersection S.

Draw line from external point R to point where arcs intersect, S

Line RS is perpendicular to line PQ and passes thru external point R

Evaluate each expression if w=2, x=3, y=5, and z=6. 3+4z
SashulF [63]

Answer:

27

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression is 3 + 4z

First, you must know what the value of the variable "z" is.

Because the problem already tells you that z = 6, all you have to do is substitute z with 4:

3 + 4z = 3 + 4(6)

Next, solve using the Order of Operations (P.E.M.D.A.S.).

According to the Order of Operations, multiplication (M) comes before Addition (A). That means you must multiply 4 by 6 first then add the product to 3:

3 + 4(6) = 3 + 24 = <u>27</u>

AnnZ [28]

We are given

Tobias dropped a tennis ball from a height of 60 meters. The time in seconds it takes for the ball to fall 60 feet is 0.25(radical60).

so, time is

T=0.25\sqrt{60} =\frac{1}{4} \sqrt{60}

we have to approximate it's value

First approximation set:

we know that

49

we can take sqrt all the sides

\sqrt{49}

we can simplify it

7

Divide all sides by 4

\frac{7}{4}< \frac{1}{4} \sqrt{60}

Second approximation set:

7.7

Divide all sides by 4

\frac{7.7}{4}

1.925

Third approximation set:

7.74

Divide all sides by 4

\frac{7.74}{4}

1.935

so, we get

t=1.94seconds......Answer

It seems that the given question is incomplete. Find below the attachment of the complete and appropriate query.

According to the question,

The total married couples are,

= 55,550,000

where,

Both native = 79.5%

Both foreign = 13.2%

Now,
