Answer:

1/6 mile

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance divided = 1/2 miles

No of sections = 3

Each division must equal = 1/2/3

                             = 1/2*1/3 = 1/6 mile.

The distance between each of the signs i.e between the first and second , second and third is 1/6 of the mile.

This can be done in decimals as well

1/2 mile= 0.5 mile.

When we divide 0.5 mile by 3 we get  0.167 which is equal to 1/6 in fractions.

tickets to a play cost 5 dollars for adults and 2 dollars for children. if 1750 tickets were sold for a total of 7100 dollars, h
Sever21 [200]
Let x = number of adults tickets sold
then, 1750 - x = number of children tickets sold

We know that the cost for adult tickets is $5 and and children is above calculated so sum total tickets sold cost is $7100.

($5)(x) + ($2)(1750-x) = $7100
5x - 2x + 3500 = 7100
3x = 3600
x = 1200

Prove that triangle with side lengths of x^2-1, 2x, x^2+1 is a right triangle.
Brrunno [24]
Right triangles must follow the pythagorean theorem, so a^2+b^2=c^2.

Let's find a^2 and b^2 by squaring the first 2 side lengths.

(x^2-1)^2= x^4-2x^2+1
(2x)^2= 4x^2

Then add the two to find c^2
x^4+ 2x^2 +1= c^2

Root both sides
x^2+1=c

Since the side lengths can be plugged into the pythagorean theorem, the side lengths must represent a right triangle.
Hope this helps!
