Mathematics

6 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

5x-2y=24

x+2y=12

add the two equations

(5x-2y)+(x+2y)=24+12

6x=36

x=6

Plug in x=6 into any of the two equations

5(6)-2y=24

30-2y=24

-6= -2y

y= 3

x=6

y=3

(6,3)

Which characteristics best describe an acute isosceles triangle?
Paladinen [302]
Isocoleese means that 2 sides and hence 2 angles are same measure
acute means that all 3 angles are less than 90 degrees

We can rule out choice I since acut means less than 90

II is a possibility, but it doesn't best describe it

III. that is true, but it doesn't include the isocileese part

IV. that is true, but doesn't include the acute part

not sure, either III or IV

At Yo-Yo Yogurt, the scale says that Sara has 8 ounces of vanilla yogurt in her cup. Her father’s yogurt weighs 11 ounces. How m
saveliy_v [14]

Answer: 1 \frac{3}{16}\ lb

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that Sara has 8 ounces of vanilla yogurt in her cup and her  father’s yogurt weighs 11 ounces. Then, the total ounces of frozen yogurt they buy altogether is:

total_{(ounces)}=8\ oz+11\ oz\\\\total_{(ounces)}=19\ oz

The next step is to make the conversion from ounces to pounds.

You need to remember that:

1\ lb=16\ oz

Therefore:

total_{(pounds)}=(19\ oz)(\frac{1\ lb}{16\ oz})=\frac{19}{16}\ lb

This result expressed as a mixed number, is:

total_{(pounds)}=1\frac{3}{16}\ lb

Mr. Harrow has eight boys and six girls in his Honors Pre-calculus class. If he randomly chooses two students, one at a time, wh
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer: 15/91 which is choice B

=================================================================

There are two methods to find this answer.

Method 1) We have 6 girls and 8+6 = 14 students. The probability of picking a girl is 6/14 = 3/7. After the first girl is chosen, we have 5 girls left out of 14-1 = 13 students overall. The probability of picking another girl (assuming the first selection was a girl) is 5/13. Multiply these probabilities: (3/7)*(5/13) = (3*5)/(7*13) = 15/91

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

Method 2) We can use the nCr combination formula. Order does not matter.

We have nCr = 6 C 2 = 15 ways to pick 2 girls. See the attached image below for the steps (figure 1)

Out of nCr = 14 C 2 = 91 ways to pick 2 students. See the attached image below for the steps (figure 2)

So that's another way to get the answer 15/91.

What theorem shows that TPN ≅ TQM?
melisa1 [442]

Note: Consider the side of first triangle is TQ instead of TA.

Given:

Triangles TQM and TPN which share vertex T.

TQ\cong TP,TM\cong TN

To find:

The theorem which shows that \Delta TPN\cong TQM.

Solution:

In triangle TQM and TPN,

TQ\cong TP        [Given]

\angle QTM\cong \angle PTN         [Given]

TM\cong TN        [Given]

Since two sides and their including angle are congruent in both triangles, therefore both triangles are congruent by SAS postulate.

\Delta TPN\cong TQM              [SAS]

Therefore, the correct option is C.
