To find the value of the following expression, which task should be completed second? 7 × 22 + (8 - 2) ÷ 3

lina2011 [118]

Answer: 7 x 22

The law of BIDMAS, or PEMDAS, or BODMAS, whatever you call it, states first brackets (parentheses), indices (exponents, orders), multiplication or division, addition, subtraction.

So first you would do the brackets (8 - 2), and then you should do the multiplication 7 x 22. I think.

ΔABC and ΔDEF appear to be similar. Which set of measurements prove that the two triangles are similar?

Triss [41]

Answer:

C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Similar triangles have congruent corresponding angles, and proportional corresponding sides.

The only angle given is angle A, which will correspond to angle D if the similarity statement is true. That is, angle D must be 35°. (Eliminates choice D)

__

The ratios of the given sides are AB:AC = 9:12 = 3:4. The corresponding sides would be DE:DF. (Eliminates choice A)

The remaining choices have side ratios of ...

B. DE : DF = 16 : 21 ≠ 3 : 4

C. DE : DF = 12 : 16 = 3 : 4

The set of measurements that would make ΔABC ~ ΔDEF is ...

DE = 12, DF = 16, and ∠D = 35°

Jimmy and his family are on their way to visit some family friends who live 780 miles away from them based on the route they cho

sesenic [268]

It would take them another 2.5 hours. To solve this you first need to multiply 60 by 4 to get 240. Subtract 240 from 780 to get 540. Then, Multiply 65 by 6 to get 390. Subtract 390 from the remaining 540 to get 150. Divide the final 150 by 60 to get 2.5. this is the remaining time they have to go before they reach their family and friends.
