Tom and same sit down to eat a pie. Tom eats 2/3 of the pie , and sam eats 1/4 of the pie what function of the pie is left

Mathematics

If you mean fraction,

Tom: 2/3

Sam: 1/4

Now we change the denominator.

Tom: 6/12

Sam: 3/12

6/12 + 3/12 = 9/12

9/12 can be simplified, so 3/4 of the pie was eaten.

4/4 - 3/4 = 1/4

The answer is 1/4.

A triangle has 2 sides that equal 5 inches. The other side equals 4 inches
miskamm [114]

Answer:

Isosceles triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

It is assumed that the triangle is a right angle triangle, implying that Pythagoras theorem becomes applicable.

If the first side is represented by x and the second side by y,

x + y = 5

The hypotenuse is always the longest side hence it can be presumed to be 4 since both x and y cannot be more than 5.

Therefore using pythagoras equation:

hyp^2 = sqrt(opp^2 + adj^2)

this implies that

4^{2} = \sqrt{x} (x^{2} +y^{2}

therefore

16 = sqrt (x^2 + y^2) ----------------- (i)

since x + y = 5, y = 5 - x ------------------- (ii)

substituting (ii) into eqn (i)

16 = sqrt ( x^2 + (5-X)^2)

16 = sqrt( x^2 + 25 -10x + x^2)

16 = sqrt( x^2 + x^2 - 10x + 25)

16 = sqrt( 2x^2 - 10x + 25)

squaring both sides

256 = 2x^2 - 10x + 25

this can be refined as

2x^2 - 10x - 231 = 0

Solving using quadratic equation:

where a = 2, b = -10 and c = -231

x = 13.53  or -8.53.

Since x is a side of a triangle that cannot be negative,

x = 13.53 but x can never be greater than 5 since x + y = 5

This implies that the triangle is not a right angle triangle; it is most likely an  isosceles triangle with two sides of equal length such that x = y = 2.5 inches while the longest side; the hypotenuse is 4 inches.

substituting for x in

10. How many three-topping pizzas can be ordered from the list of toppings below? Did you calculate the number of permutations o
Nimfa-mama [501]

Step-by-step explanation:

Total numbers of pizza toppings = 12

Number of three topping pizzas can be ordered are:

P^{n}_{k}=\frac{n!}{(n-k)!}

where = n = number of elements

k = number of elements choosen

n= 12 , k = 3

\frac{12!}{(12-3)!} =\frac{12\times 11\times 10\times 9!}{9!}= 1,320

We calculated the number of permutations. We made this choice because in permutation order of element matters but in combination its not.
