Answer:

One side is 6 (bottom of triangle) and two sides are 8 (two main sides of the triangle)

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason this is is because two sides of a regular triangle are the same while one is not. (The bottom of the triangle) So, the bottom is shorter than the sides.

Answer: The possible length of the third side is 10 inches.

Step-by-step explanation: One of the rules for calculating the side of a triangle in mathematics is the Pythagoras theorem. However, for the Pythagoras theorem to be applied, the triangle must be a right angled triangle. In the question above, we have two sides in a triangle given as 6 inches and 8 inches.

The Pythagoras theorem states that, in any right angled triangle, the square of the hypotenuse (longest side) must be equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. Hence, AC^2 = BC^2 + AB^2

Where AC is the hypotenuse and BC and AB are the other two sides. We now have,

AC^2 = 8^2 + 6^2

AC^2 = 64 + 36

AC^2 = 100

Add the square root sign to both sides of the equation

AC = 10.

Therefore the length of the third side measures 10 inches. (This is only possible if the triangle is a right angled triangle)

Show me the steps in finding the answer to the question 2/3(5x4)/3+6/7
blagie [28]
Since 5×4 is in brackets, we start with that
so 2÷3 (20)÷3+6÷7

we do ×/÷ first from the left
so 4.44+ 0.8571428571 = 5.301

HELP PLEASE!!!

Answer:

The population of Bear in 2050 is 4750000

Step-by-step explanation:

A) The exponential growth equation for bear is as follows -

dN/dT = rmax * N

Where dN/dT = change in population

rmax is the maximum rate of change

N = Base population

B) Here the per capita rate of increase (r) will always be a positive value irrespective of the and hence we will assume this population to be growing exponentially.

C) dN/dT = rmax * N

D) dN / 5 = 2.5 * 380,000

dN = 5*2.5 * 380000

= 4750000

What is (-7/8)(-3/4) simplified
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

<h2>21/32</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

-7/8 × -3/4 = 21/32

-7 × -3   = 21  

-8 × -4   = 32

21/32

<u><em>IMPORTANT: This number is not negative, because a negative times a negative is a positive.</em></u>

By the way, if you didn't know how to arrive at the fraction here's how.

First, Address input parameters & values.

Input parameters & values: The decimal number = 0.65625. Then, write it as a fraction

0.65625/1

Multiply by 100000 both the numerator & denominator

(0.65625 x 100000)/(1 x 100000) = 65625/100000

65.625% = 65.625/100 or 65625/100000

Find LCM (Least Common Multiple) for 65625 & 100000.

3125 is the LCM for 65625 & 100000

Divide by 3125

65625/100000 = (65625 / 3125) / (100000 / 3125)

= 21/32

I'm always happy to help :)

The length of a rectangular garden is 8m greater than twice the width the area of the garden is 280m^2 what is the width of the
yarga [219]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :-

The length of the garden 8m greater than 2 times the width.

Area of the garden is 280 m²

Let us consider the length as x and width as y.

Sp, we can day length as :-

x = 8 + 2y ---(1)

Now, we know that:-

Area of Rectangle = Length × Breadth

280 = x * y

We can replace the value of x now,

280 = y × ( 8 + 2y)

280 = 8y + 2y²

2y² + 8y - 280 = 0

y² + 4y - 140 = 0

Factorise it.

(y -10)(y + 14)

Cancelling -ve value, we get the width as 10 metres.
