So the first hour it travels from 1-6 miles, the second hour it travels at least two miles. And the question is "draw the range of miles the boat could of traveled in the second hour". Well first of all the third hour is completely useless so forget about that. Now, the first hour says it traveled from 1-6 miles, we don't know how many miles it traveled for sure but it could of traveled up to 6. So in the second hour when they say "at least two miles" the boat could of travled at least two miles more than 1-6. So 1+2+3, 2+2+4, 3+2=5, 4+2=6, 5+2=7 and 6+2=8. So the boat could of traveled from 3 to 8 miles in the second hour.

Write the following decimal number in its equivalent fraction form. Show all work for full credit.

<span>Let x=0.8888...

x=0.8888 Start with the given equation

10x=8.8888 Multiply both sides by 10. The goal is to move the decimal point to the next repeating portion (which is just one spot to the right)

Now subtract the equation x=0.8888 from 10x=8.8888 to get
10x-x=8.8888-0.8888

9x=8 Combine like terms. Notice how the decimal portions cancel out.

x=8/9 Divide both sides by 9 to isolate x

So the answer is x=8/9 which means that 8/9=0.8888 (where the 8's repeat)</span>

What is the measure of angle B in the triangle?

sladkih [1.3K]

40 + 2x - 30 + x + 20 = 180
3x + 30 = 180
3x = 150
x = 50

m<B = 2x - 30
m<B = 2(50) - 30
m<B = 100 - 30
m<B = 70

Suppose a triangle has sides a, b, and c and the angle opposite the side of length a is acute what must be true?

ANTONII [103]

The true statement about the triangle is (a) b^2 + c^2 > a^2

<h3>How to determine the true inequality?</h3>

The sides are given as:

a, b and c

The angle opposite of side length a is an acute angle

The above means that:

The side a is the longest side of the triangle.

The Pythagoras theorem states that:

a^2 = b^2 + c^2

Since the triangle is not a right triangle, and the angle opposite a is acute.

Then it means that the square of a is less than the sum of squares of other sides.

This gives

a^2 < b^2 + c^2

Rewrite as:

b^2 + c^2 > a^2

Hence, the true statement about the triangle is (a) b^2 + c^2 > a^2
