Answer:

No, Mia is not correct, the answer is -2.

Step-by-step explanation:

First we are going to use the distributive Property.

Step 1: 2(0.75+0.4). multiply the 2 out. .75m x 2=1.5m and 2 x .4= .8.

We get 1.5m+.8, so 2(0.75+0.4)=1.5m+.8

Now we are going to distribute on the oher side. 4(.5m-.8)

4x .5m=2m and 4x.8=3.2. Keep the sign the same and we get 2m-3.2, so 4(.5m-.8)=2m-3.2

We put this into the new equation to get 1.5m+.8+7.8=-6.4m+2m-3.2

Step 2: combine like terms

.8+7.8= 8.6 and -6.4m +2m =-4.4m

Plug that into our equation and we get 1.5mn+8.6=-4.4m-3.2

Step 3: Switch the sides

Bring -4.4m to the other side to get 1.5m+4.4m=5.9m

One side is 5.9m

We bring 8.6 to the other side to get -8.6. now we do -3.2-8.6=-11.8.

Our new equation is 5.9m=-11.8

divide by 5.9 on both sides to get our answer of

m=-2

Look at the figure shown below:

These are the steps, with their explanations and conclusions:

1) Draw two triangles: ΔRSP and ΔQSP.

2) Since PS is perpendicular to the segment RQ, ∠ RSP and ∠ QSP are equal to 90° (congruent).

3) Since S is the midpoint of the segment RQ, the two segments RS and SQ are congruent.

4) The segment SP is common to both ΔRSP and Δ QSP.

5) You have shown that the two triangles have two pair of equal sides and their angles included also equal, which is the postulate SAS: triangles are congruent if any pair of corresponding sides and their included angles are equal in both triangles.

Then, now you conclude that, since the two triangles are congruent, every pair of corresponding sides are congruent, and so the segments RP and PQ are congruent, which means that the distance from P to R is the same distance from P to Q, i.e. P is equidistant from points R and Q

A horse ran 800 meters in 40 seconds , 1200 meters in 60 seconds , and 480 meters in 24 seconds . Is this a proportional relatio

frosja888 [35]

Answer:

This is a proportional relationship, the constant of proportionality is 20m/s and it represents that the horse can run 20 meters every second.

Equation: d = 20s, where d=distance and s=number of seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find out whether this relationship is proportional, you need to see if the rate at which the horse runs is constant (the same). If you look at the three sets of data (24, 480), (40, 800) and (60, 1200) where the pair is (seconds, meters), you can see that for any two sets of data the change in meters divided by the change in seconds is consistently 20m/s. For example:

$\frac{1200-800}{60-40}=\frac{400}{20}=20$

Since the constant is 20, we know that the horse can run 20 meters every second. To find the horse's total distance, we need to multiply the rate by the number of seconds that it runs:

d = 20s

Can someone please help me?

1/36 because you have 36 different possibilities when rolling it twice and getting and a 4 then a 6 is only 1 possibility out of the 36
1/4 because there is 3/6 chance on one roll and second roll
We said with 2 rolls there is 36 possibility (6x6)
So 3x3=9 which the amount of possibility to get a even number
9/36 simplify is 1/4 (divided by 9 the top and bottom)
Hope this helps!
