Mathematics
1 answer:
Lyrx [107]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

There were 30 questions on the test so she got 3 questions wrong.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Correct answers by Emma = 27

Percentage of correct answers = 90%

Let,

x be the total number of questions on test

90% of x = 27

\frac{90}{100}x=27

0.9x=27

Dividing both sides by 0.9

\frac{0.9x}{0.9}=\frac{27}{0.9}\\x=30

There were 30 questions on the test.

Wrong answers = Total questions - Correct answers

Wrong answers = 30-27 = 3

Hence,

There were 30 questions on the test so she got 3 questions wrong.

A roofer leaned a 16 foot ladder against a house if the base of the ladder is 5 feet from the house how high up the house does t
valkas [14]

Answer:

15.2 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We use Pythagorean Theorem to find the height.

The hypotenuse of the formed triangle =  length of ladder = 16 feet

base = 5 feet

let h = height of house

16 ^2 = 5^2  +  h^2

256 = 25 + h^2

231 = h^2

h = root(231) = 15.1986 feet

Is it possible for a simple, connected graph that has n vertices all of different degrees? Explain why or why not.
ryzh [129]

Answer:

It isn't possible.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let G be a graph with n vertices. There are n possible degrees: 0,1,...,n-1.

Observe that a graph can not contain a vertice with degree n-1 and a vertice with degree 0 because if one of the vertices has degree n-1 means that this vertice is adjacent to all others vertices, then the other vertices has at least degree 1.

Then there are n vertices and n-1 possible degrees. By the pigeon principle there are two vertices that have the same degree.
