Answer:
Melanie.
Step-by-step explanation:
The possible ways of getting a 6 are (3,3), (2,4), (4,2), (1,5) and (5,1).
That is 5 ways.
The possible ways of getting a 7 are (1,6), (6,1), (5,2),( 2,5), (3, 4), (4,3).
That is 6 ways.
So Melanie made the better decision.
I wrote ones but I hope it’s right and helps
Answer:
x = 3
y = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
When 2 triangles are congruent, they will have exact same 3 sides length and exact same 3 angles measure.
So we can say:
-2x + 6y = 6
and
-7x + 8y = -5
Let's multiply first equation by 7 and 2nd equation by -2, to get:
7 [-2x + 6y = 6] = -14x +42y = 42
and
-2 [-7x + 8y = -5] = 14x - 16y = 10
Now adding these 2 new equations and solving for y:
-14x +42y = 42
14x - 16y = 10
----------------------
26y = 52
y = 52/26
y = 2
Now we put y = 2 into 1st equation (or any other) and solve for x:
-2x + 6y = 6
-2x + 6(2) = 6
-2x + 12 = 6
6 = 2x
x = 6/2
x = 3
Volume of the carton = 1000 cubic inches. Dimensions of a carton are 10"×10"×10"
The pattern is:
( a - b )² = a² - 2 a b + b² ( square of last term of binomial - the missing term)
x² - 2 · 8 · x + 8² = x² - 16 x + 64 = ( x - 8 )²
The missing term is: 64
