This is a tricky question that Reina and Sam are multiplying (84)5 (73)9and their work are (84)5 (73)9 = 84 + 573 + 9 = 89712    Reina's(84)5 (73)9 = 84⋅573⋅9 = 820727 Sam'sActually they are doing or multiplying using exponents.
Reina’s work (8⁴)₅(7³)⁹=8⁴⁺⁵+ 7³⁺⁹= 8⁹ 7¹²This is incorrect  because she added exponents instead of multiplying exponents
Sams work (8⁴)⁵ (7³)⁹=8⁴ˣ⁵ 7³ˣ⁹= 8²⁰ 7²⁷This is correct  because Sam multiplied exponents correctly
Exponents are multiplied not added.

$ PS = \frac{4}{3} x

Solution:

Given PRQ is a triangle.

ST is a line parallel to RQ.

$PT = x, \ PQ = 3x,  \ SR=\frac{8}{3}x

TQ=PQ-PT

TQ=3x -x=2x

<u>Triangle proportionality theorem,</u>

<em>If a line parallel to one side of a triangle intersects the other two sides, then it divides the two sides proportionally.</em>

$\frac{PS}{SR} =\frac{PT}{TQ}

$\frac{PS}{\frac{8}{3} x} =\frac{x}{2x}

Do cross multiplication, we get

$ PS \times 2x=x \times \frac{8}{3} x

Divide by 2x on both sides, we get

$ PS = \frac{4}{3} x

A spinner is divided into 10 congruent sections.Each section is labeled with a number as shown.What is the probability that the
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

50%

Step-by-step explanation:

The only numbers that are multiples of 2 are all even numbers. From 1 to 10 there are a total of 5 even numbers, meaning that only 5 sections are multiples of 2. Therefore, the probability of the arrow landing in a section that is labeled with a number that is a multiple of 2 would be

5/10  if we simplify this it would be 1/2 or 50%

Finally, we can say that the probability of the arrow landing on one of these sections is 50%
