The answer to number one is C
and the answer to number two is A
Answer:
PR = 5 because LP + PR = LR according to the Segment Addition Postulate, and 7 + 5 = 12 using substitution
Step-by-step explanation:
The naming of the segments suggests that point P is between L and R, so that ...
LP + PR = LR
This corresponds to the last choice.
_____
<em>Comments on the alternate interpretation</em>
On the other hand, if point L is between P and R, then the segments are PL and LR. The Segment Addition Postulate would tell you that ...
PL + LR = PR
The Reflexive Property of Congruence would tell you that PL = LP. The Substitution Property would tell you LP can be substituted into this equation, making it ...
LP + LR = PR
and by the commutative property, ...
LR + LP = PR.
Multiple properties of addition and congruence are involved with this interpretation, which more or less matches the third choice. That is, the simple explanation of answer choice 3, by itself, is insufficient to explain why the length of PR should be considered to be 19, not 5.
There are 2.54 cm in 1 inch. Since we are estimating, we can round the average growth per year to .5 cm which would give you roughly 5 years per inch of diameter (2.5 / .5 = 5). Since we have a tree with a 4 inch diameter, we can estimate the age of the tree is...
4 inches x 5 years/inch = 20 years old.
It looks like the scale is balanced so that means you can set one side equal to the other which leaves you with the equation x+(-10)=-16
To get x by itself add x to each side to get x=-6
X=-6 is your answer
Answer:
C≈51.84in
Step-by-step explanation:
C=2πr
d=2r
Solving for C
C= πd= π·16.5≈51.83628in
