Answer:

  c.)  57 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The centroid divides the median into parts with a 2:1 ratio.

  OM : OP = 2 : 1

  OM : MP = 2 : (2+1) = 2 : 3

As a fraction with MP on top, this is ...

  MP/OM = 3/2

  MP = (3/2)OM = 3/2×(38 cm)

  MP = 57 cm

<em>Comment on the answer choices</em>

Often, you can eliminate a number of the choices in a multiple-choice question just by testing whether they are reasonable. Here, the longer part of a line segment has length 38, so the whole segment will not be shorter than that. The choices 19 and 25.5 make no sense.

The remaining choices are 114 cm and 57 cm. The former is 3 times the length of the given segment, which the drawing tells us is unreasonable.

The only reasonable choice offered is 57 cm.

Answer:

  C)  ΔDCE ≅ ΔDQR

Step-by-step explanation:

Corresponding vertices can be identified by the number of arcs signifying congruence.

  1 mark: angles D and D

  2 marks: angles C and Q

  3 marks: angles E and R

Corresponding angles are listed in the same order in the congruence statement:

  ΔDCE ≅ ΔDQR

How much money will you have if you started with $1200 and put it in an account that earned 7.3% every year for 10 years?
andrezito [222]
So an exponential equation is gonna be used for this problem. The formula for such is y=ab^x , in which the a variable is the initial value and the b variable is the growth/decay rate.

For this situation, 1200 is gonna be your a variable since you've started out with it. And as for your b variable, its gonna be 107.3%, or 1.073, since it's increasing.

Your equation should look like this: y=1200(1.073)^x and from here just plug in 10 into the x variable and solve.

Multiply (1.073)^10 (don't round answers until the end), and take that answer and multiply it with 1200, your answer should be $2427.61.

y=1200(1.073)^{10} \\ y=2427.61

Jenna bought two more pairs of jeans. If both of them are blue, what percentage of her jeans is blue now? If both of them are no
Sergeeva-Olga [200]
What you must keep in mind is that there are 4 jeans in total, which represents 100%
 When she bought two jeans, we have the following information:
 If both of them are blue:
 50% of their jeans is blue now, that is:
 x = (50/100) * 4 = 2
 2 jeans are blue.
 This means that she did NOT have 2 blue jeans before.
 Thus:
 If they are not blue: 
 We have 4 jeans that are not blue.
 Then, 0% of her jeans is blue now
 answer:
 0% percentage of her jeans is blue now
