Answer:

The given statement:

The midpoint of a line can be found using either a compass and straightedge construction or a straightedge and tracing paper construction is a TRUE statement.

Step-by-step explanation:

The construction of a mid-point with the help of a compass is same as the construction of perpendicular bisector of a line segment.

Also,

To construct the midpoint of a line segment using straightedge and a tracing paper

  • ,start by drawing a line segment on a  paper.
  • Next, fold the paper so that the endpoints of the line segment overlap.
  • This creates a crease in the paper.
  • The intersection of the crease and the original line segment is the midpoint of the line segment.

Hence, the given statement is  a TRUE statement.

A new car is purchased for 15300 dollars. The value of the car depreciates at 14.25% per year. What will the value of the car be
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

\$6,082.70  

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The  formula to calculate the depreciated value  is equal to  

V=P(1-r)^{x}  

where  

V is the depreciated value  

P is the original value  

r is the rate of depreciation  in decimal  

x  is Number of Time Periods  

in this problem we have  

P=\$15,300\\r=14.25\%=0.1425\\x=6\ years

substitute in the formula

V=15,300(1-0.1425)^{6}  

V=15,300(0.8575)^{6}  

V=\$6,082.70

Qing attached a dog ramp to her bed, which allows her dog to easily climb onto the mattress. The ramp is 48 inches long. The bas
geniusboy [140]
Using the formula a^2+b^2=c^2you can fill in the numbers so that a=height of mattress in inches,b=40 inches or distance from base of the bed and c=48 or length of the ramp. a^2+40^2=48^2a^2+1600=2304
So then it becomes2304-1600=a^2704=a^2 26.5+=aSo, The top of the mattress(after rounding) is 26.5 inches off the ground.

In triangle $DEF,$ $\angle D = 30^\circ,$ $\angle F = 60^\circ,$ and $EF = 6.$ Find $DE + DF.$ [asy] unitsize(2 cm); pair D, E,
sergey [27]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer to this question is 12+6sqrt3.

This is because of the 30, 60, and 90 degree rule. The rule states that the hypotenuse is equal to twice the length of the shorter leg, which is the side across from the 30 degree angle.

Using the rule you now know that DF is 12. Then use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the length of DE. 12^2=144, and 6^2=36. 144-36=108.

The square root of 108 simplified=6sqrt3.

Then you add them together and get 12+6sqrt3.

Sales tax on an item is directly proportional to the cost of the item purchased. If the tax on a $600 item is $42, what is the s
Dafna11 [192]
Answer: $65.10

Step-by-step work:

1.Set the ratio
\frac{600}{42}  =  \frac{930}{x}
2.Cross-multiply
600x = 930(42)
600x = 39060
3.Divide to single out x
600x \div 600 = 39060 \div 600
x = 65.10
