Answer:

Lindsey owns  12 books

Step-by-step explanation:

1/3x:Lindsay

x:Destiny

1/4x: Henry

1/3x+1/4x+x=57

4/12x+3/12x+x=57

7/12x+x=57

19/12x=57

x=57*12/19

x=36

1/3x=36/3

1/3x=12

The trifecta at most racetracks consists of selecting the​ first-, second-, and​ third-place finishers in a particular race in t
ziro4ka [17]

The total tickets to be purchased to guarantee the win =  504 tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 :

Number of entries in the trifecta race = 9

The win is to select the first finisher, second finisher and third finisher in their proper order.

We need to find the number of tickets to be purchased to guarantee the win

Step 2 :

Number of ways to select the first finisher = 9

Number of ways to select the second finisher = 8 [the first is selected and fixed. So the number of available finishes is reduced by 1]

Number of ways to select the third finisher = 7

Hence the total tickets to be purchased to guarantee the win = 9 × 8 × 7 = 504

Step 3 :

Answer :

The total tickets to be purchased to guarantee the win =  504 tickets

Triangle PQR is dilated by a scale factor of 1.5 to form triangle P′Q′R′. This triangle is then dilated by a scale factor of 2 t
Ghella [55]

Answer:  The correct option is (D) P″(9, -12) and Q″(15, -3).

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that triangle PQR is dilated by a scale factor of 1.5 to form triangle P′Q′R′. This triangle is then dilated by a scale factor of 2 to form triangle P″Q″R″.

The co-ordinates of vertices P and Q are (3, -4) and (5, -1) respectively.

We are to find the co-ordinates of the vertices P″ and Q″.

<u>Case I :</u>  ΔPQR dilated to ΔP'Q'R'

The co-ordinates of P' and Q' are given by

P'(3\times 1.5, -4\times 1.5)=P'(4.5, -6),\\\\Q'(5\times 1.5, -1\times 1.5)=Q'(7.5, -1.5).

<u>Case II :</u>  ΔP'Q'R' dilated to ΔP''Q''R''

The co-ordinates of P'' and Q'' are given by

P''(4.5\times 2, -6\times 2)=P'(9, -12),\\\\Q'(7.5\times 2, -1.5\times 2)=Q'(15, -3).

Thus, the co-ordinates of the vertices P'' and Q'' are (9, -12) and (15, -3).

Option (D) is CORRECT.

Sasha is bisecting a segment. First, she places the compass on one endpoint, opens it to a width larger than half of the segment
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

A) Swing arcs on both sides to intersect the first two arcs created.

Step-by-step explanation:

Bisecting a segment is cutting a line into two equal parts with a line bisector.

The steps involved are;

  • Placing a compass on one endpoint
  • Opening the compass to a width larger than half of the segment
  • Swinging an arc on either side of the segment
  • While maintaining the same width, place the compass on the other endpoint
  • Swing arcs on both sides of the segment to intersect the first two arcs created
  • Using a ruler placed at the points of intersection of the arcs, draw the line bisector.

Sasha was now at step four.
