Please help me with parts A, B, and C.
leonid [27]

Answer:

  (a) scalene, see attachment

  (b) acute, see attachment

  (c) correct; isosceles

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) The sides of the triangle all have different lengths, so the triangle is scalene. Differences in coordinates between the points of the triangle are (6, 2), (5, 2), and (4, 1), so no two distances between these points can be the same.

__

(b) The angle opposite the longest side is clearly an acute angle, so the triangle is an acute triangle.

__

(c) Miles and Brad live on the same north/south line. Jose lives at a distance that is halfway between those houses in the north-south direction. Hence the distance to Miles' and Brad's houses must be the same from Jose's house. That means the triangle connecting Miles', Brad's, and Jose's houses will be an isosceles triangle.

Say that you own property with a market price of $74,000. The state tax assessors have given it an assessed value of 48% of that
BigorU [14]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

74,000 x .48 = 35520. 35520 is the amount of property you have to pay for.

35520 x 0.031 = 1,101.12.  1.101.12 is the amount you owe in property tax.

Place these numbers in order from greatest to least. 19/5, 1.62, –14/3, –0.5​
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

See below:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello my name is Galaxy and I'll be helping you today. I hope you are having a nice day!

Simplification

To figure out how we can order them, we can first simplify the problems so that we can easily determine its place. We can put the fractions into decimal form so that they are are in one form and will be easy for us to comprehend.

\frac{19}{5}=3\frac{4}{5}=3.80

We know that \frac{1}{5} is equal to 0.20 because we know that 1.00 will be equal to 100 in this case and we can divide that by five to get 20 which will be divided back to get to 0.20.

As I've explained how I've simplified the first one, simplifying the others should be a quite similar process, feel free to comment below if you need any assistance with this.

\frac{19}{5}=3.80\\1.62=1.62\\\frac{-14}{3}=-4.6667\\  -0.5=-0.5

(Everything simplified to decimal form.)

We can now proceed to ordering them.

Ordering

Ordering decimals doesn't have to be as hard as it looks, we know that as per the number line a number that is more negative (e.g. -37) will be less than (e.g. -5) as it is closer to the number 0.

Now that we know how to order the negative numbers, we can order them into order, and for ordering the positive numbers, we should already know how to do that.

So, now, in order from Greatest to Least. We can order them by what I said above.

3.80>1.62>-0.5>-4.666

We can convert the numbers back into their original form by looking at how we converted them in the Simplification section.

Final Answer

After converting them into a way that we can comprehend, we get our final answer in terms of greatest to least as:

\frac{19}{5}>1.62>-0.5>\frac{-14}{3}

Cheers!
