Answer:

8%

Step-by-step explanation:

234.25$ : 100 = 252.99$ : x

234.25x = 252.99 x 100

234.25x = 25299

25299 divided by 234.25 is 108

so answer 8%

A tetrahedron is a triangular pyramid with 4 equilateral faces. Han has a box of tetrahedrons with each of the 4 vertices marked
Daniel [21]

Theoretically, the number of the vertex comes at the top must be equal for infinitely many numbers of trials, but it's a tedious job to roll the dice for a large number of times. Rolling the tetrahedron only 10 times will not predict the correct result.

Han suspects that this tetrahedron is weighted in some way to make 1 appear more often than the other numbers.

So, check his suspect experimentally with the help of the concept of center of mass. A fair tetrahedron must have the center of mass at the center of the body.

The given tetrahedron has 4 equilateral triangular faces, so at first, measure all the sides of triangular faces and make sure that all are having the same length.

Then, conduct an experiment to check the location of the center of mass.

Hang the tetrahedron by attaching a thin string at the vertex 1 as shown in the figure and observe the base surface ( triangle 234) whether it is parallel to the ground or not.

Now, repeat the same by hanging it with vertices 2, 3, and 4 and observe the base surface.

For the center of mass to be located at the center of the tetrahedron, the base must be parallel to the ground (flat ground).i.e the hanging string must be perpendicular to the base for all the four cases.

If this is so, then the tetrahedron is a fair tetrahedron otherwise not.

The slope formula can be used to prove that a triangle has
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

The slope formula can be used to prove that a triangle has

A. Congruent Sides

<u>B. A right angle </u>

C. Parallel sides

D.Congruent angles

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for finding the slope of a line on a coordinate plane is (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1), where (x2, y2) and (x1, y1) represent two distinct points on the line. This is also known as "change in y over change in x" or "rise over run."

The change in the value of an account when given to the nearest dollar ? Identify the set of numbers that best describes .
AveGali [126]
When an account is rounded off to its nearest dollar will change based on the place value. For example, the given account of money if $ 56 730, then it will be rounded to its nearest ten thousands. Then the given amount will be rounded to $57,000 in where the given money rounded up and gain up to $300. But if the money will be rounded with its nearest hundreds, the money will become $ 56,700. Notice that the given money rounded down and lost $30 dollars.

What is y=\dfrac{2}{3}x+4y=
lara [203]

Answer:

12y+x-12=0

Step-by-step explanation:

If I'm not mistaken by the question, we have

x+4y=\dfrac{2}{3}x+4

Multiply through by the LCM of all the denominators to clear the fractions. Since we have only one fraction, we multiply through by its LCM (3)

3\timesx+3\times4y=3\times\dfrac{2}{3}x+3\times4

3x+12y=2x+12

Putting all terms on the LHS (left hand side) and evaluating,

12y+x-12=0

What’s the value of x trigonometry question
Softa [21]

Answer:

x=9.2394

Step-by-step explanation:

It's tan we're going to use because we're looking for the opposite and we already have the angle

Therefore, x will be

Tan 57= x/6

1.5399= x/6

x= 6*1.5399

x= 9.2394

You can approximate it to the nearest whole number which will be 9
