Answer:

Part 1) The value of y=6

Part 2) ED=36, DB=36 and EB=72

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem we know that

ED=DB -----> equation A

EB=ED+DB -----> equation B

The point D is the midpoint ED

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

step 1

Find the value of y

Substitute the given values in the equation A

$5y+6=y+30$

solve for y

$5y-y=30-6$

$4y=24$

$y=6$

step 2

Find the value of ED,DB and EB

$ED=5y+6$

substitute the value of y

$ED=5(6)+6=36$

Remember that

ED=DB

therefore

$DB=36$

Find the value of EB

EB=ED+DB

$EB=36+36=72$

A map shows the town where Niko lives. The actual distance from Niko's house to his school is 3 miles, and measures one-half inc

katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

<u>The distance of the library in the map is 0.67 inches (Rounding to two decimal places)</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review all the information given for solving this question:

Scale factor for the map of the town = 0.5 inches: 3 miles

Distance from Niko's house to his school = 3 miles

Distance from Niko's school to the library = 4 miles

2. Let's find the distance of the library in the map

Distance of the library in the map = Distance of the library * Scale factor

Distance of the library in the map = 4 miles * 0.5 inches:3 miles

Distance of the library in the map = (2 miles * inches)/3 miles

Distance of the library in the map = 2 inches/3 (Miles are cancelled in the numerator and in the denominator)

<u>Distance of the library in the map = 0.67 inches (Rounding to two decimal places)</u>

Check each set that includes the number shown.

zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

Fourth option.

Sixth option.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that:

- Any number you can find on the number line, is a Real number.

- Integers contains positive numbers, negative numbers and zero. Every Integer is a Rational number.

- A Rational number is that number that can be written in the following form:

$\frac{a}{b}$

Where "a" and "b" are integers ( $b\neq 0$ ).

- An Irrational number cannot be written as a simple fraction.

- A Whole number is any of the numbers { ${0, 1, 2, 3...}$ }. Every Whole number is a Rational number.

- Natural numbers contain the set of positive integers{ ${1, 2, 3...}$ } or to the set of nonnegative integers { ${0, 1, 2, 3...}$ }, Every Natural number is a Rational number.

Based on this, since $\frac{5}{9}$ is in the form $\frac{a}{b}$ where $a=5$ and $b=9$ , it is a Rational Number and therefore a Real number.

Juan put three square tiles with sides 8 centimeters, 10 centimeters, and x centimeters together so that they form a right trian

Elan Coil [88]

Since the area of a square is equal to the square of one of its side's length, then the area should be equivalent to $x^{2}$ .
$A = x^{2}$ ---> equation (1)
By using pythagoras rule which states that the $x^{2} = hyp^2 - opposite^2$ ---> equation (2)
where the opposite side's length is 8 and the hypotenuse side's length is 10
by substituting by the values in equation (2) therefore,
$x^{2} = 10^{2} - 8^{2}$ substitute this value in equation (1) then
$A = x^{2} = 10^{2} -8^{2}$
where A is the area of the square whose side is x
