Yes he can, because when the area of the top of the box is divided by 3/4, you get a whole number, meaning there would be no tile pieces left over, which means that he could cover the top. SEE PICTURE FOR WORK.

alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

10 more girls

Step-by-step explanation:

So here 2/3 of 24 ran for first race

Then it gives us that 16 girls ran for first race.

Next, 1/4 of 24 ran for second race

That is 6 girls

The remaining girls ran for the third race,

24 - 22

2 girls

16 - 6 = 10

So for first race 10 more girls ran

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

$1596

$1597.28

$1598.33

bank A

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for calculating compound interest:

FV = P (1 + r/m)^mn

FV = Future value  

P = Present value  

R = interest rate  

N = number of years

m = number of compounding

Bank A = $1500(1.064) = $1596

Bank B = $1500( 1 + 0.063/12)^12 = 1597.28

Bank C = $1500( 1 + 0.0635/365)^365 = $1598.33

Bank A pays the least amount of interest

Order the steps for bisecting line segment AB using a reflective device.
yulyashka [42]

The question requires that segment AB is to be divided into two equal parts.

To do this, the order of steps for bisecting AB are D, E, B, C, A

To bisect segment AB implies dividing AB into two equal parts. After the construction, the length of each part must be equal.

Therefore, the required steps to bisect segment AB are as follow

<h3>What reflective device?</h3>

A MIRA is a commercial name given to a piece of colored transparent plastic used to reflect geometric objects.

D. Place the compass on point A, and open it wider than half the distance of the segment.

E. Swing an arc above and below the segment.

B. Keeping the compass the same width, place the compass on point B, and swing an arc above and below the segment.

C. Place points C and D on the intersection of the arcs created above and below segment AB.

A Draw a line from C point to point D.

Therefore the line CD is the perpendicular bisector of segment AB.

Thus, the order of steps for the bisection process is D, E, B, C, and A.
