Ahmed travel $12\frac{1}{2}$ miles in 5 days walking to school and back.

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance from house to school = $1\frac{1}{4}$ miles

Distance from school to house = $1\frac{1}{4}$ miles

Total distance in 1 day = $1\frac{1}{4}+1\frac{1}{4}=\frac{5}{4}+\frac{5}{4}$

Total distance in 1 day = $\frac{5+5}{4}=\frac{10}{4}$

Distance traveled in 5 days = $5*\frac{10}{4}=\frac{50}{4}$

Distance traveled in 5 days = $\frac{25}{2}=12\frac{1}{2}$

Ahmed travel $12\frac{1}{2}$ miles in 5 days walking to school and back.

Why might working on a commission basis make dealing with finances more difficult

Kobotan [32]

<span>Dealing with finances becomes more difficult when working on a commission basis because unlike working on a salary basis, there is no regular pay. A commission means that earnings are based on rate of sale or number of completed tasks. Income may be reduced if you do not sell enough, or fail to complete enough tasks.</span>

The mean of three numbers is 70. if two of the numbers are 55 and 65 what is the third number

Margarita [4]

90
55+65=120
there are 3 numbers and when you divide them it makes 70.
70 x 3 = 210
210 - 120 = 90
55 + 65 + 90 = 210
210 / 3 = 70

In isosceles triangle ∆ABC, BM is the median to the base AC . Point D is on BM . Prove the following triangle congruencies:∆ABD

Alex787 [66]

Answer:

In isosceles triangle ABC, BM is the median to the base AC and Point D is on BM as shown below in the figure;

Median of a triangle states that a line segment joining a vertex to the midpoint of the opposing side, bisecting it

M is the median of AC

then by definition;

AM = MC ......[1]

In ΔAMD and ΔDMC

AM = MC [side] [By [1]]

$\angle AMD = \angle DMC =90^{\circ}$ [Angle]

DM =DM [Common side]

Side-Angle-Side postulate(SAS) states that if two sides and the included angle of one triangle are congruent to two sides and the included angle of another triangle, then these two triangles are congruent.

Then, by SAS,

$\triangle AMD \cong \triangle DMC$

CPCT stands for Corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent

By CPCT,

$AD = DC$ [Corresponding side] ......[2]

In ΔABD and ΔCBD

AB = BC [Side] [By definition of isosceles triangle]

BD= BD [common side]

AD = DC [Side] [by [2]]

Side-Side-Side(SSS) postulate states that if three sides of one triangle are congruent to three sides of another triangle, then the two triangles are congruent.

Therefore, by SSS theorem,

$\triangle ABD \cong \triangle CBD$
