Answer:
The length of PQ is <u>18</u> feet.
The length of PR is <u>18</u> feet.
The length of QR is <u>24</u> feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
A way to set an equation up for this problem is:
where x is the three lengths of the isosceles triangle, but the base QR is 4/3 the length of the other two congruent sides, length PQ and PR. The 60 represents the total length of the perimeter.
Then, solve for x from the equation, and you’ll get x=18. But your not done yet. Since the variable x in the equation stands for the sides of the isosceles triangle, so plug 18 into the equation and it should look like this:
Don’t solve the whole equation, just solve the 
part of the equation, which is equal to 24. So the final equation is this:
Conclusion: 24 is the length of QR, and 18 is the length of PQ and PR. And they all equal 60, which is the perimeter. This is very true because the length of PQ and PR are the same (length 18), since it’s an isosceles triangle, and the length of QR is 4/3 the length of PQ and PR (4/3 of 18= 24).
Sorry for the long explanation.
But hope this helps and answers your question :)
You just have to multiply the percentage by the amount:
(150/100)×$63
1.5×$63= $94.50
If you aren't allowed a calculator, then just find half of $63 (the 0.5 of the fraction) and add it to $63 (the 1. of the fraction).
$63÷2= $31.5
$63+$31.5= $94.50
Answer:
<1 and <8 are alternate exterior angles
Step-by-step explanation:
Alternate means on the opposite side of the transversal
Exterior means outside the parallel lines
<1 and <8 are alternate exterior angles
1. You convert all the numbers into decimals.
a. For 8 1/9 you multiply 8x9 and add the numerator which in this case is one, so the equation would be 8x9=72 then 72+1= 73
b. For 81/10 I used a calculator for accuracy and I just divided 81 by 10 because the fraction line can also be used as a division sign. For this I got 8.1
2. Now I looked at all the numbers I had including the fractions I converted to decimals... 8.115, 8.55, 73, and 8.1
3. Lastly, I put the numbers in order from least to greatest: 8.1, 8.115, 8.55, and 73
4. In order to figure out which one is the smallest and largest, I just added zeros on the end of the numbers so they would all be the same: 8.1-->8.100, 8.115 I kept the same because it already had 3 decimal places, 8.55--> 8.550, and 73--> 73.000
5. Then i could tell which number was the largest by the decimal place numbers.
**Hope this was helpful... It's kind of hard to explain online but hopefully you have a better understanding of how to do it!**
B could be the only answer
