You can tell that his answer is incorrect by analyzing the situation.

A product (In math) is the result of multiplication, or an expression that identifies factors to be multiplied.

To see if the answer is wrong we have to first get the correct product of 78 and 134

78 • 134 = 1,072 + 9,380 = 10,452.

214 is too small of a number. The reason being is that 134 multiplied by any number greater than 1.59701492537 will be greater than 214. 78 is greater than 1.59701492537.

In conclusion, the product of 78 and 134 is not 214.

Line segment GH is divided by point J in the ratio of 1:4. Endpoint G is at (7,5) and point J is at (10, 14).
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

(x2 , y2) = (22,50)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

m1 : m2 = 1:4

(x1 , y1) = (7 , 5)

(X ,Y) = (10 ,14)

Find:

(x2 , y2)

Computation:

X = (m1x2 + m2x1) / (m1+m2)

10 = [(1)(x2) + (4)(7)]/(1+4)

10 = [x2 + 28]/5

22 = x2

Y = (m1y2 + m2y1) / (m1+m2)

14 = [(1)(y2) + (4)(5)]/(1+4)

14 = [y2 + 20]/5

70 = y2 + 20

50 = y2

(x2 , y2) = (22,50)

Given m<br> ||n, find the value of x and y.<br> (3y+8) (9x+1)°<br> (x+19)°<br> m<br> n
andrezito [222]

Answer:

x = 16

y = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Find x first. The unmarked angle underneath the x + 19 is 9x + 1 (corresponding angles so congruent so same measure as the angle below)

So the two angles add up to 180°

x+19 + 9x + 1 = 180°

combine like terms

10x + 20 = 180

subtract 20

10x = 160

divide by 10

x = 16

Now you can find the measure of the angle marked 9x+1.

9(16) + 1

= 144 + 1

= 145

Now find y. The angle marked 9x+1 is now known to be a 145° angle. So that angle with the angle marked 3y+8 must make 180°

3y + 8 + 145 = 180

combine like terms

3y + 153 = 180

subtract 153

3y = 27

divide by 3

y = 9

A line segment connecting any two opposite Vertex of a quadrilateral​
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

As applied to a polygon, a diagonal is a line segment joining any two non-consecutive vertices. Therefore, a quadrilateral has two diagonals, joining opposite pairs of vertices. For any convex polygon, all the diagonals are inside the polygon, but for re-entrant polygons, some diagonals are outside of the polygon.

= 6•5•4/(3•2•1)
= 120/6
= 20
With 20 possibilities, there is a 1 in 20 chance that she will choose her favorite three.
