Answer: Any isosceles triangle is a counter example. More specifically, a triangle with sides 7, 7 and 3
When forming your triangle, make sure you apply the triangle inequality theorem. This is the idea where adding any two sides leads to a result larger than the third side. So we have
7+7 = 14 which is larger than 3
7+3 = 10 which is larger than 7
By definition, an isosceles triangle has two congruent sides. Some books say "at least 2 congruent sides", but I'll go with the first definition. If you want all three sides to be congruent, then you'd go for the term "equilateral".
Answer:
4). The Washington Monument is 169.2-m tall.
Step-by-step explanation:
4). We know this because...
person 1.8 0.7
---------- = ----- = -------
Wash. x 65.8
We then know to cross-multiply to get:
1.8(65.8) = 0.7x
Which simplifies down to:
118.44 = 0.7x
x = 169.2
Answer:
5). The pond is 180ft wide.
Step-by-step explanation:
5). We know this because...
90 120
----- = -------
135 x
We then know to cross-multiply to get:
90x = 120(135)
Which simplifies down to:
90x = 16200
x = 180
Answer:
6). The height of the clock tower is 13ft 9in.
Step-by-step explanation:
6). We know this because...
person 5.5 4
---------- = -------- = -----
clock x 10
We then know to cross-multiply to get:
5.5(10) = 4x
Which simplifies down to:
55 = 4x
x = 13.75 (13 ft 9 in)
12, Find the prime factorization of 60
60 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 5
Find the prime factorization of 144
144 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3
To find the gcf, multiply all the prime factors common to both numbers:
Therefore, GCF = 2 × 2 × 3
<h3>
Answer: 12/25</h3>
====================================================
Reason:
60% = 60/100 = 0.6 is the probability of making any given free-throw.
1 - 0.6 = 0.4 is the probability of missing any given free-throw.
We have these probabilities
- A = P(making 1st, missing 2nd) = 0.6*0.4 = 0.24
- B = P(missing 1st, making 2nd) = 0.4*0.6 = 0.24
The probability of making exactly one free throw is A+B = 0.24+0.24 = 0.48
Convert this to a fraction:
0.48 = 48/100 = (4*12)/(4*25) = 12/25
Answer:
$26
Step-by-step explanation:
0.8(X - 3) = 18.4
X - 3 = 23
X = 26
