Answer:

34 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Short piece= x

Longer piece= 4x

The shorter piece and longer piece = 170 in, so 5x= 170

To find "x", divide both sides by 5

5x/5= x

170/5=34

x=34

Hope this helps! :)

Hello there.

Question: <span>250% as a fraction

Answer: </span>Step 1: Factor both the numerator and denominator down to prime factors:
250 = 2 * 53 
100 = 22<span> * 5</span>2
Step 2: Calculate the greatest common factor, GCF
GCF = (2 * 53; 22 * 52) = 2 * 52 
Step 3: Divide both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor, 250/100 =
<span>(2 * 53)</span>/<span>(22 * 52)</span> = 
<span>((2 * 53) : <span>(2 * 52)</span>)</span> / <span>((22 * 52) : <span>(2 * 52)</span>)</span> =
5/2
Ways of writing this:

Molly needs to classify the triangle below based on angles. Which class is correct? 60° 50° 70° A. acute triangle О B. isosceles
Art [367]

Answer:

A. Actute triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

Is A because an acute triangle is a triangle where all the angles are the same.

Can not be B. because isosceles triangles have two sides that are the same which doesn't relate to angles.

Can not be C. because equilatiral triangles are triangles with sides that are all the same.

Can not be D. because for a triangle to be obtuse one of the angles needs to be greater that 90 degrees.

So it has to be A.
