If you are trying to create a garden of potted plants, you would find out how much soil each pot needs/holds and multiply that by how many pots you plan to use. then you would go to the store for potting soil, which let’s say came in smaller packs and you need to purchase multiple. use multiplication estimation to estimate how many bags you’d need.
I know this is a dumb example...sorry this is one I remember from my fourth grade math teacher ahah

In the trapezoid ABCD ( AB ∥ CD ) point M∈ AD , so that AM:MD=3:5. Line l ∥ AB and going trough point M intersects diagonal AC a
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

BC:BN=8:3

Step-by-step explanation:

ABCD is a trapezoid and there is a point m which belongs to AD such that AM:MD=3:5.Line "l" parallel to AB intersects the diagonal AC at p and BD at N.

Now, we know that the parallel lines divide the transversal into the segments with equal ratio, therefore, BN:NC=AM:MD

But, BC= BN+NC

Therefore, BC:BN=(BN+NC):BN

⇒BC:BN=(3+5):3

⇒BC:BN=8:3

∠C and ​ ∠D ​ are vertical angles with  m∠C=−x+26 and  m∠D=2x−10 .   What is m∠D ?
Valentin [98]
Vertical angles are made by two intersecting lines .and they are always equal
<span>∠C and ​ ∠D are equal.
so  </span><span>−x+26 =2x-10
-3x=-36
x=36/3
x=12</span>°

∠D= 2x-10
put value of x here
∠D=24-10
∠D=14°

If triangle XYZ is reflected across the line y = 1 to create triangle X'Y'Z', what is the ordered pair of X'? 
Vlad1618 [11]

Consider triangle XYZ with vertices at points X(1,-3), Y(3,0) and Z(-1,-1). If triangle XYZ is reflected across the line y = 1, then the rule of reflection is

(x,y)→(x,-y+2).

The image X' of point X will have coordinates according to the given rule:

X(1,-3)→X'(1, -(-3)+2)=X'(1,5).

Answer: correct choice is D.

A game is played using one die. If the die is rolled and shows 1, the player wins $5. If the die shows any number other than 1,
mash [69]

Answer:

1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

i had a similar question

For each roll you start with paying 2 dollars and you only with 10 dollars one out of 6 rolls (on average). 

So the cost for one play is 2 dollars and your win is 10/6. 

Value is -2+10/6=-1/3 dollars

So you lose 1/3 dollars on average with each game

since you have no limited rolls u put 1/5

this from another question but both same just different numbers
