Answer:

Bert has $45.

Step-by-step explanation:

I have no real strategy, except for that I used guess and check. How did I do this? Well, since I am in 5th Grade, I don't know algebra very well, so I made an organized chart and checked all the numbers that had to be a multiple and  could be divided equally by 5, 3 and when a third of that number was subtracted by 6, it was a fifth of the orginal number. Thats how I got 45.

Checking this answer:

It is always important to check your answer after finishing the problem, so this is how I checked my answer:

1. 45 divided by 3 = 15

2. 15 - 6 = 9, and 9 is 1/5 of 45

Bert has $45.

Hello, can anyone help me by answering all these? Please
kompoz [17]

Answer: See step by step

Step-by-step explanation: For A my 15 statements are.

  1. It has 3 triangles inside it, ACD, ADC, and ABC
  2. It has 2 right triangles, and 1 isoceles
  3. AC≅AB
  4. CD≅DB
  5. D is midpoint of CB
  6. AD⊥CB
  7. Angle CDA=90 degrees
  8. Angle  BDA equal 90 degrees
  9. AD≅AD
  10. ΔCDA≅ΔBDA by any congruence theorem, (SSS, SSA,AAS,ASA, HL)
  11. AD^{2}+ DB^{2}=AB^{2}

 12.AD^{2}+ CD^{2}= AC^{2}

   13. Triangle ABC has a max of 180 degrees.

     14. We can rotate this triangle 180 degrees and it will coincide.

       15. We can reflect triangle ACD over vertical line ACD and it will be congruent to ABD.

 2.  We use pythagorean theorem since it has a right angle.

      AD^{2}+ DB^{2}=AB^{2} Let plug it in.

      40^{2}+b^{2}=45^{2}

        1600+ b^2=2025

      b^2=424

      sqr root of 425 is about 21. Now let find the perimeter.

      AB is 45, Since BD+DC=CB, and they are congruent they are equal so 21+21=42 and AC is congruent to AB so it is 45. So the perimeter is  132.

  For 3. Start at the orgin, then go up 5 on the y-axis so you should be at (0,5)

   Then use the rise over run method to graph it. go left -3 and and up 1. Keep doing that 2 more times then draw a straight line.  

Your 3 point should be

(0,5)

(1,2)

(2,1)

inessss [21]

Answer:

ρ = 35% or 0.35

ρ with ^ = \frac{23}{50}=0.46 or equivalently 46%

Step-by-step explanation:

ρ represents the population proportion of the bus riders, with a monthly pass, who are students.

The population proportion is simply the percentage of the entire population with a particular characteristic. We have been informed that in a city, 35% of the bus riders with a monthly pass are students. This means that 35% of the whole population of bus riders with a monthly pass are students. Therefore, our ρ is simply 35% or 0.35.

ρ with ^ represents the sample proportion of the bus riders, with a monthly pass, who are students. This is a statistic or an estimator as it is normally used to estimate the value of ρ, the population proportion. It is calculated using the formula;

ρ with ^ = \frac{x}{n}

where n represents the size of the sample and x the number of individuals in the sample with a certain desired characteristic. We have been informed that;

in a random sample of 50 bus riders with monthly passes, 23 are students.

Using the above formula and the values given we have;

ρ with ^ = \frac{23}{50}=0.46 or equivalently 46%
