(Pair 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to look for a pair with both sides decreasing.

Pair 1 has the exact opposite of what we need happening. It has the sides increasing, so it is out.

Pair 2 has the Pattern A right, but Pattern B is still going up, so it is also out.

Pair 4 has both sides decreasing but the second term on Pattern A is 3 less than the first term when it should be 2. As a result it is also out.

This leaves Pair 3 as our final answer.

The segments in each figure are tangent to the circle. Find each length.

zubka84 [21]

The tangents are equal length, so
.. 8x = x^2
We presume their length is not zero, so we can divide by x to get
.. 8 = 2x
.. 4 = x

Then the length of each tangent is 8*4 = 32 units.

In the figure, angle D measures 45° and angle E measures 87°. What is the measurement of angle H?

scZoUnD [109]

Hat means y + z = 180.

y is thrice than z means y = 3 * z. 

replace y with 3 * z in the equation of y + z = 180 to get 3 * z + z = 180. 

combine like terms to get 4 * z = 180. 

solve for z to get z = 180 / 4 = 45 degrees. 

since y = 3 * z, then y = 3 * 45 = 135 degrees. 

y = 135
z = 45 

y + z = 180 becomes 135 + 45 = 180
y = 3 * z = 135 = 3 *45 

solution is confirmed to be good.

In a town, 15% of the population is unemployed. what is the

kow [346]

Answer:

1479 people

Step-by-step explanation:

If the amount employed is 8381, that means 8381 is 85% of the population. 8381/85 = 98.6

Every 1% of the population is 98.6, so we can just do 15 x 98.6 to get 1479

Suppose you have 5 riders and 5 horses, and you want to pair them off so that every rider is assigned one horse (and no horse is

maw [93]

There are 120 ways in which 5 riders and 5 horses can be arranged.

We have,

5 riders and 5 horses,

Now,

We know that,

Now,

Using the arrangement formula of Permutation,

i.e.

The total number of ways $^nN_r = \frac{n!}{(n-r)!}$ ,

So,

For n = 5,

And,

r = 5

As we have,

n = r,

So,

Now,

Using the above-mentioned formula of arrangement,

i.e.

The total number of ways $^nN_r = \frac{n!}{(n-r)!}$ ,

Now,

Substituting values,

We get,

$^5N_5 = \frac{5!}{(5-5)!}$

We get,

The total number of ways of arrangement = 5! = 5 × 4 × 3 × 2 × 1 = 120,

So,

There are 120 ways to arrange horses for riders.

Hence we can say that there are 120 ways in which 5 riders and 5 horses can be arranged.

The length of a rectangular pool is 50 yards, and the width of the pool is 16 yards. What is the approximate length of the diago

melisa1 [442]

Answer:

52.5

Step-by-step explanation:

You would use the Pythagorean theorem to solve this. Using the formula,

a^2 + b^2 = ^2

You would have an equation of 50^2 + 16^2 = c ^2.

50^2 is 2500, and 16^2 is 256.

There, you have 2500+256 = c^2

add those together, and you have 2756.

Now, you have to find the square root of 2756 (to solve 2756 = c^2)

which leaves you with 52.4976189936 . Rounded to the nearest tenth, you end up with 52.5.
