Tyrone is working with two other students to build a border around the school’s triangular garden. Each student brought in one side of the border, but they all used different units to measure the side lengths. The first side is 312 inches long, the second side is 20 feet long, and the third side is 12 yards long. If the measurements need to be in feet, will the three border pieces make a right triangle?

Convert the first side into feet using a proportion.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

NO, the these three border pieces will not make a right triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

Perform the necessary conversions:

1.  312 in converts to

      312 in       1 ft

     ----------- * ------- = 26 ft

        12 in         1

2.  20 ft

3.  12 yd converts to

         12 yd         3 ft

       ------------- * --------- = 36 ft

            1 yd             1

So the three different side lengths are 26 ft, 20 ft and 36 ft.

For the three pieces to make a right triangle, these measurements must satisfy the Pythagorean Theorem:

26² + 20² = 36², or 1296

676 + 400 = 1076

The Theorem is NOT satisfied, and so NO, the these three border pieces will not make a right triangle.

In a set of 1,000 integers from 1 to 1,000, an integer chosen at random on a single trial should be an integer from 1 to 25 about 25 out of every 1,000 trials, or one out of every 40 integers selected. A sample of 5 integers selected is shown. Does this sample represent the general rule for picking an integer from 1 to 25 in the population of integers from 1 to 1,000?

A.Yes - the sample is representative of the expected number of integers from 1 to 25 in a sample of 5 integers, which would be none or zero.
B. No - the sample is not representative of the expected number of integers from 1 to 25 in a sample of 5 integers, which would be at least 10.

You would earn $0.94 for recycling the tomato can.
I’m assuming you need to find the surface area first to get the total amount of square inches.
The area of the base is 12.56 square inches using the formula for area of a circle. Double it for both bases. 12.56 + 12.56 = 25.12 square inches.
Then the height times the circumference to get the square inches for the round side. 5.5 times 12.56 (which is the circumference and area of the base) equals 69.08 square inches.
And add 69.08 and 25.12 to get 94.2 square inches.
Now you get $0.01 for every full square inch, which would give you $0.94 for recycling the tomato can.
you will earn 0.94 have a great day

HELP ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answers

Answer:

l = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a rectangle is

P =2(l+w)

The width is x-6

w = x-6

The length is 8 units longer than the width

l = w+8

l = x-6+8

l = x+2

We can substitute this into the equation for Perimeter, which is given as 40

40 = 2(x+2 + x-6)

Combine like terms

40 =2 (2x-4)

Divide by 2

40/2 = 2/2 (2x-4)

20 = 2x-4

Add 4 to each side

20+4 =2x-4+4

24 = 2x

Divide by 2

24/2 =2x/2

12=x

l = x+2

Answer is 53 because these are supplementary angles and they adapt to 180 degrees. You add 37 and 90= 127, and then you subtract 127 from 180.

Please help me if you can. Please also write how you got the answer thank you.

Answers

First state your variables:

a = Andile

Everything is related to Andile and therefore we do not need to make this equation more difficult by adding in more variables.

a + (a - 40) + 2(a - 40) = 380

Expand brackets and simplify:

2a - 40 + 2a - 80 = 380

4a - 120 = 380

4a = 500

Then solve for 'a' by dividing by both sides:

a = $125

Now we know Andile's pay we can find Taylor's quite easily:

t = a - 40

t = 125 - 40

t = $85

Taylor earned $85.

What is the area of the triangle?

Answers

Answer:

0.18ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Select all the equations that have no solution.
a. +6=5+
b. -2(−3)=-2+6
c. 4−4=3+2
d. 4(+1)=3(+2)
e. 5−3=-3+4

Answers

Answer:

a, and e.

Step-by-step explanation:

x+6=5+x has no solution. When you subtract 6 from both sides, you get x=-1+x. We know that x doesn't equal -1+x, so this equation has no solution.

-2(x-3)=-2x+6 has a solution. When you distribute, you get -2x+6=-2x+6.

4-4x=3x+2 has a solution. Subtract 4 from both sides to get -4x=3x-2. Subtract 3x from both sides to get -7x=-2, then divide -2 by -7 to get x=0.285714285714. This equation has a solution.

4(x+1)=3(x+2) has a solution. Distribute to get 4x+4=3x+6. Subtract 4 from both sides to get 4x=3x+2. Subtract 3x from both sides to get x=2. This equation has a solution.

5-3x=-3x+4 has no solution. Subtract 5 from both sides to get -3x=-3x-1. We know that -3x does not equal -3x-1, so we can determine that this equation has no solution.

Answer:

a  and e has no solution

Step-by-step explanation:

A) x + 6 = x +5

Subtract x from both sides

   x + 6 - x = x + 5 - x

        6 = 5 which is not true.

So, this equation has no solution

d) 5 - 3x = -3x + 4

Add 3x to both sides

5- 3x + 3x = -3x + 4 + 3x

5 = 4         which is not true.

So, no solution
