The fence is 210 ft long.
There is a post every 3.5 ft.
If you divide 210 ft by 3.5 ft, you get the number of spaces between posts.
(210 ft)/(3.5 ft) = 60
The fence starts with a post. Then there is 3.5 ft of fencing. Then there is another post. Then there is another 3.5 ft of fencing followed by a post. In total there are 61 posts.

Here's another way of thinking of why you end up with 60 posts.
For each 3.5 ft of fencing, you place a post at the end of the fencing.
Since there are 60 3.5-ft-long pieces of fencing, there will be 60 posts, one at the end of each piece of fencing. The first thing that is done is to put the initial post before any fencing is put up. The first post plus 60 more posts add up to 61 posts.

Now that you see why there are 61 posts, we can calculate their cost.
61 * $8.50 = $518.50

A number cube labeled 1 to 6 is rolled 450 times. Which is the best prediction for the number of times that the number cube will
Vedmedyk [2.9K]
Haha, I don't think those answers belong to the question asked :P

The probability of rolling less than 3 is 2/6=1/3

So if you rolled 450 times you should expect to roll less than 3:

450(1/3)=150 times.

Select the postulate or theorem that you can use to conclude that the triangles are similar.
insens350 [35]

Answer: SAS similarity postulate

Step-by-step explanation:

According to SAS postulate of similarity, two triangles are called similar if two sides in one triangle are in the same proportion to the corresponding sides in the other, and the included angle are congruent.

In triangles, QNR and MNP,

\frac{QN}{MN} = \frac{QM+MN}{MN} = \frac{10+8}{8} = \frac{18}{8} = \frac{9}{4}

\frac{NR}{NP} = \frac{NP+NR}{NP} = \frac{10+8}{8} = \frac{18}{8} = \frac{9}{4}

\implies \frac{QN}{MN} = \frac{NR}{NP}

Also,

\angle QNR\cong \angle MNP  (Reflexive)

Thus, By SAS similarity postulate,

\triangle QNR\sim\triangle MNP

⇒ Option first is correct.
