Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If we assume the triangles are similar and are isosceles, and that BK is an altitude, then we can work the problem.

Triangle OKN will be similar to triangle BKA, so ...

AN : AK = BO : BK = 1 : 3

Then ...

AN : AK : KC = 1 : 3 : 3

In terms of ratio units, ...

AN = 1

AC = 3+3 = 6

NC = 6-1 = 5

This means NC : AC = 5 : 6. The triangle perimeters will have the same ratio.

perimeter(NMC) = 5/6·perimeter(ABC) = 5/6·96

perimeter(NMC) = 80

Helpppp plzzz The frequency histogram shows the lengths of trails in a large park.

Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

13 trails

Step-by-step explanation:

The histogram shows following numbers of trails:

0 - 6 km long - 5 trails;
6 - 12 km long - 9 trails;
12 - 18 km long - 7 trails;
18 - 24 km long - 3 trails;
24 - 30 km long - 4 trails;
30 - 36 km long - 1 trail;
36 - 42 km long - 3 trails.

So, there are 5 trails with length less than 6 km and 4 + 1 + 3 = 8 trails that are at least 24 km long.

In total, 5 + 8 = 13 trails

5/8 of my allowance is 60.00. So what is 1/2 of it?

solmaris [256]

Answer:

youre total is 96.00 so half of it will be 48

Step-by-step explanation:

we need to find your total first

5/8 * 60/?

multiply 8 with 60, getting you 480

the divide with 5 getting you 96, now to find the 1/2 of your amount just divide this with two and now you have it! 48 is your total half
