On a test I was given 2 triangles. One triangle gave measurements of all three sides as 2, 4, and 5. The next triangle had sides

given 4 and 8 and it asked what the third side should be if the triangles were perpendicular.
How would I solve this? Do I find the perimeter of each triangle?

Are you sure the word you're looking for is perpendicular? Perpendicular means at a 90° angle, which in your case, would mean the two triangles would be exactly the same. Did you mean mathematically similar? Because if so, I can tell you that the third side would be 10, using scale factor.

Melanie has a bag that contains orange chews, cherry chews, and peach chews. She performs an experiment. Melanie randomly remove
adoni [48]

Answer:

0.30

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Total number of trials = 61

Number of orange chews = 38

Number of cherry chews = 5

Number of peach chews = 18

Probability that next chew removed will be a peach chew ;

This is an experimental probability problem ;

Using the relation :

Experimental probability of A;

Number of successes (A) / total number of trials

Hence, Probability that next chew removed will be a peach chew ;

Experimental probability of peach chew :

Number of trails = 61 ; number of successes (peach chew) = 18

P(peach chew) = 18 / 61

P( peach chew) = 0.2950819

= 0.30 ( nearest hundredth)

The ratio of boys to girls in a school is 4:5. How many boys are in the school if there are 720 students.
scZoUnD [109]

Answer: 320 boys

Step-by-step explanation: you would first take the total number (720) and divide it by the total number shown in the ratio (5+4=9)

720/9= 80

You would then take 80 and multiply it by 4 because that is the number representing the boys

80*4= 320
