Answer:

<h2><em>11 inches</em></h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose that 16 inches of wire cost 80 cents.

At the same rate, how many inches of wire can be bought for 55 cents?

16 : 80 = x : 55

x = 16 * 55 : 80

x = 11

----------------------

check

16 : 80 = 11 : 55

0.2 = 0.2

The answer is good

WXY is a right triangle. <br><br> A. True. <br> B. False.

lora16 [44]

Answer:

B. False

Step-by-step explanation:

According to pythagorean theorem, for this to be a right triangle, the sum of square of the length of the two legs must equal square of the length of the hypotenuse (longest side).

So $(\sqrt{34} )^{2}$ should equal $(\sqrt{18} )^{2}+(\sqrt{18} )^{2}$

<em>We also know that $(\sqrt{a} )^{2}=(\sqrt{a})(\sqrt{a})=a$ </em>

Hence, $(\sqrt{18} )^{2}+(\sqrt{18} )^{2}=18+18=36$ , and

$(\sqrt{34} )^{2}=34$

They ARE NOT EQUAL, so the triangle is NOT a right triangle.

What is the reciprocal of 9/10 as a mixed numeral?

Alika [10]

Reciprocals are technically flipped fractions. So it would be 10/9. 9 goes into ten one time, so it's 1 1/9.
