Answer:

a) The variable, M represents the amount of fish Ms. Montesinos has

b) The set equation is 11 + 2 = 3 × M - 2

c) 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The number of fishes in Ms. Cruz's tank = 11 fishes

The number of fishes Ms, Cruz has after buying two more fishes = 3 × The amount of fish Ms. Montesinos has - 2 fishes

a) Let the variable, M represent the amount of fish Ms. Montesinos has

b) The set up equation is as follows;

11 + 2 = 3 × M - 2

c) From the equation, 11 + 2 = 3 × M - 2, we have;

13 = 3·M - 2

3·M = 13 + 2 = 15

3·M = 15

M = 15/3 = 5

M = 5

The number of fishes Ms. Montesinos has is 17 fishes

Which of the following could be the ratio between the lengths of the two legs of a 30-60-90 triangle?
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:c

options A  and B

Step-by-step explanation:

the ratio between the lengths of the two legs of a 30-60-90 triangle

General ration of 30-6- 90 degrees triangle is

x : xsqrt(3) : 2x

When x=1 the ratio becomes 1 : 1 sqrt(3)

when x= 2sqrt(3) the ratio becomes

It becomes

Two sides of 30-60-90 triangle cannot be equal

so option c  and option D are not possible

sqrt(2) is also not possible  because we have sqrt(3) in general ratio
