Answer:

assuming only positive integers, the answer is 1

Step-by-step explanation:

the smallest number that you can get by adding is:

  • start with 0
  • then add 1 = 1
  • add another 1 = 2
  • add another 1 = 3
  • add another 1 = 4
  • add another 1 = 5

but you can also multiply, and anything multiplied by 0 is 0:

  • start with 0
  • multiply by 2 = 0
  • multiply by 2 = 0
  • multiply by 2 = 0
  • multiply by 2 = 0
  • multiply by 2 = 0

The question does not say that we need to do any specific calculation, it only gives us 2 options and we can choose them as many times as we want.

the ratio of the sides of a certain triangle is 2:7:8 if the longest side of the triangle is 40cm how long are the other two sid
Zigmanuir [339]

The length of the other two sides is 10 and 35 respectively.

<h3>What is a ratio?</h3>

A ratio is a quantitative relation showing the comparison between two or more numbers. It can also be written in the fractional form where the first part is the numerator and the second part is called the denominator.

From the given information:

  • The sides of the triangle = 2:7:8
  • The total sides of the triangle = 2+7+8 = 17

We are being told that the longest side is the triangle is equal to 40.

i.e.

\mathbf{\to\dfrac{8}{17}\times x = 40}

\mathbf{x = 40 \div \dfrac{8}{17}}

\mathbf{x = 40 \times \dfrac{17}{8}}

x = 85

Now for the other two sides 2 and 7, their length is as follows.

\mathbf{\dfrac{2}{17}\times 85 = 10}

\mathbf{\dfrac{7}{17}\times 85 = 35}

Therefore, we can conclude that the length of the other two sides is 10 and 35 respectively.

likoan [24]
You can buy 50 of the cherry candies with all of the 25$ because you do 25 divided by 0.50 and get 50 and then if you would like to check that do 50 x 0.50 and you will still get 25$

Please help with this ☝️

The two angles (6x+4) and 32 degrees are complementary angles. They add to 90 degrees. The two angles are adjacent and form a right angle. The right angle marker is the square marker. Two adjacent right angles form a straight angle (180 degrees)

Add up the angles and set the sum equal to 90. Then solve for x
(6x+4) + (32) = 90
6x+4 + 32 = 90
6x+36 = 90
6x+36-36 = 90-36 .... subtract 36 from both sides
6x = 54
6x/6 = 54/6 ... divide both sides by 6
x = 9

Since x = 9, this means that
6x+4 = 6*9+4 = 54+4 = 58

So the missing angle is 58 degrees (note how 58+32 = 90)
