Answer: compass and straightedge or ruler
Perpendicular bisector of a line segment
Geometry construction using a compass and straightedge
compass and straightedge or ruler
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
A) To solve the ratio, cross multiply then divide.
B)
A / 5/8 = 3/5 / 2/3
Cross multiply:
(5/8 x 3/5) =( A x 2/3)
3/8 = 2/3A
Divide both sides by 2/3:
A = 3/8 /2/3
A = 3/8 x 3/2
A = 9/16
No not evenly, but it will be 49.3 repeating .
Answer: c=11, m=28
Step-by-step explanation:
c= Chris's score
m= Mike's score
c+m=39 we know from the equation that their scores
add up to 39, so this equation is a good starting
point.
c+2(c+3)=39 we also know that Mike's score is twice the sum of Chris's
score and 3 so we can substitute that in for his score.
now we can solve.
c+2c+6=39 distribute
3c+6=39 combine like terms
-6 -6
3c=33 addition property of equality
÷3 ÷3
c=11 multiplication property of equality
Now that we know Chris's score, we simply substitute that number in in our simple equation for earlier to find Mike's score.
11+m=39 substituted in 11 for c
-11 -11
m=28 addition property of equality
There you go! Don't worry, I had a lot of trouble with these types of problems too. That's why I'm so good at them now Hope this helps!
