Answer:

<h2>A  16mm</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

An equilateral triangle is a triangle that has all of its sides equal.

Perimeter of an equilaterial triangle = 3s where;

s is one side of the triangle.

Given the perimeter of ABC = 96mm

Substituting into the formula above to get s;

96 = 3s

s = 96/3

s = 32mm

Hence the length of one side of the triangle is 32mm

If a perpendicular bisector is drawn from angle A to side Line segment B C at point M, then MC will be half of BC and ΔAMC will be a right angled triangle.

Since all the sides of the triangle are equal, hence BC = 32mm. Since MC is the half of BC, then MC = 1/2 of 32mm

MC = 1/2 * 32mm

MC = 16mm

<em>Hence the length of Line segment MC is 16mm</em>

A total of 70 tickets were sold for a concert and earn the organizers $804. If the cost of each ticket is either $10 or $12, how
crimeas [40]

Answer:

52 tickets cost $10 and 18 tickets cost $12

Step-by-step explanation:

10x+12y=804. (1)

x+y=70. (2)

From (2)

x=70-y

Substitute x=70-y into (1)

10x+12y=804

10(70-y)+12y=804

700-10y+12y=804

700+2y=804

2y=804-700

2y=104

y=104/2

y=52

Recall

x+y=70

x+52=70

x=70-52

x=18

52 tickets cost $10 and 18 tickets cost $12

1. The value of k for which equation 9x2 + 8xk+8 = 0 has equal roots is:
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

Option C

+ or - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

A quadratic equation will have equal roots if its Discriminant is equal to zero.

the discriminant in this case is b^{2}- 4 ac

considering the equation,

9x^{2} + 8xk+8 = 0

a = 9, b= 8k, c=8

Replacing the variables in the original equation with their respective values, we will have:

8k^{2}- 4 \times 9 \times 8=0\\64k^{2}=288\\k=\sqrt{288/64} =\sqrt{9/2}

Note: The values of k are meant to be + or -2.12 as seen from the workings

However, these are not in the options given. the closest choice to it

is + or - 3

oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer: <em><u>C. the base period amount.</u></em>

<u><em>Explanation: </em></u>While implementing a horizontal analysis on a given income statement, we compute a percentage change in any individual item by dividing the dollar amount of change from base to current  time period with <u><em>the base period amount.</em></u>

i.e. % Change in Individual item = \frac{Current\ Dollar\ - Base\ Dollar }{Base \ period \ amount}

<u><em>Therefore, the correct option in this case is (c)</em></u>

From the given scenario is this particular item, the equation that can be derived for the distance traveled after x seconds is,
                            y = d₀ + (4)x
Substituting the known values x and y in order to solve for d₀ will give us an answer of,
                           13 = d₀ + 4(3)
                                    d₀ = 1 
Thus, the answer is 1 m.
