Answer:

I got about 13%

Step-by-step explanation:

I divided the buses Jerry owns that run late, 7, and the total number of buses that run late, 52. 7/52= 0.13461538. Rounded to the nearest hundredth.

Write an indirect proof showing that the diagonals of a parallelogram intersect each other
____ [38]
Its an indirect proof, so 3 steps :-
1) you start with the opposite of wat u need to prove 
2) arrive at a contradiction
3) concludeReport · 29/6/2015261
since you wanto prove 'diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other', you start wid the opposite of above statement, like below :- step1 : Since we want to prove 'diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other', lets start by assuming the opposite, that the diagonals of parallelogram dont bisect each other.Report · 29/6/2015261


Since, we assumed that the diagonals dont bisect each other, 
OC≠OA 
OD≠OBReport · 29/6/2015261
Since, OC≠OA, △OAD is not congruent to △OCBReport · 29/6/2015261

∠AOD≅∠BOC as they are vertical angles, 
∠OAD≅∠OCB they are alternate interior angles 
AD≅BC, by definition of parallelogram 
so, by AAS, △OAD is congruent to △OCBReport · 29/6/2015261
But, thats a contradiction as we have previously established that those triangles are congruentReport · 29/6/2015261
step3 :
since we arrived at a contradiction, our assumption is wrong. so, the opposite of our assumption must be correct. so diagonals of parallelogram bisect each other.

Which of the following numbers is not a perfect square?<br><br> 24<br> 25<br> 64<br> 100
stich3 [128]
Hi! 

A perfect square is the product of when a whole number is multiplied by itself

Ex:

6 × 6 = 36, 36 is the perfect square. 

The number that is being multiplied is the square root. 

So to find the correct answer for this question, let's use the process of elimination. 

100 = 10 × 10 so we can cross out 100

64 = 8 × 8 so we can cross out 64

25 = 5 × 5 so we can cross out 25

Now all we have left is 24, which is not a perfect square. 

Answer: A. 24

Hope this helps :)

Philip did 14 setups on Monday 21 sit-ups on Tuesday and 28 sit-ups on Wednesday if the pattern continues how many sit-ups will
g100num [7]
So you add 7 every time so,

28+7=34
34+7=41

if he continues his pattern he will have done 41 sit-ups on Friday

Please help i dont understand

Your answer would be 46.50 because you would divide 31 in half (for the 50%) then add that to the 31. So 31+15.50= $46.50 hope this helps. If not let me know
