An insect crawls up 5cm every second on a 6cm vertical rod and then falls down 2cm over the next second. How many seconds will i

t take to climb the rod?​

Answer:

3 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

It's quite simple. First, add 5cm to the progress of the insect, counting it as 1 second. Then subtract 2cm because it falls over the next second, thus taking another second. Then finally, plus 5cm, making it 3 seconds. It's not 4 seconds because at 3 seconds it had already reached the top.

If I didn't clear everything or messed up, please comment.

4+n divided by 43+n equals to 1/3 what is n?
Mariana [72]

Answer:

n = 15.5

Step-by-step explanation:

(4+n)/(43+n) =1/3

3(4+n)= 1*(43 + n)

12 + 3n = 43 + n

3n - n = 43 - 12

2n = 31

n = 31/2= 15.5

Which statement is true of triangles P and Q? Triangle P has side lengths of 6, 8, 10 and angle measures of 53.1 degrees, 90 deg
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

Triangle P and Triangle Q are mathematically similar shapes (?).

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, so the question asks which statement is true, given the following information, but you haven't written what statements we can choose from.

After reading the information, we can see that Triangle Q is the same shape as Triangle P but just larger.

I'm assuming that one of the statements given is about Triangle P and Triangle Q being mathematically similar shapes?

If you need to show your working out, here it is:

18 ÷ 6 = 3

24 ÷ 8 = 3

30 ÷ 10 = 3

All the angles are the same.

This means that the length scale factor is +3 from Triangle P to Triangle Q, the area scale factor is +9 (because 3 x 3 = 9) from Triangle P to Triangle Q, and that the two shapes are mathematically similar.

*DISCLAIMER* The majority of question askers on Brainly seem to be from the US, and I'm not, so the way I work things out / the mathematical terms I use might be different. Sorry!

Hope this helped anyway!

Bluey :)

(-5, 0) and (-1, 0) are the solutions of -2(-x - 3)² + 8 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Step 1: Find the solutions of -2(-x - 3)² + 8 = 0.

Solutions are the intersecting points of y = -2(-x - 3)² + 8 and y = 0.

⇒ Solutions are (-5, 0) and (-1, 0)

  • Step 2: (-5, 0) and (-1, 0) are solutions of -2(-x - 3)² + 8 = 0

Given that j || k, what is the measure of the missing angle?
anzhelika [568]
60 degrees or C. Since the missing angle is the opposite of the 120 degree angle, 180 degrees minus(since that is the amount of degrees in a straight line, and a circle contains 360 degrees) the other angle gives you your answer.
