The table shows the average weight of animals. how many more tons does a blue whale weigh than an african elephant? ( hint: there are 2,000 pounds in one ton.”

the blue whale weighs 143.5 more tons than an African elephant

Step-by-step explanation:

an adult blue whale is 300,000 pounds, an adult African elephant is 13,000 pounds

300,000 pounds = 150 tons

13,000 pounds = 6.5 tons

150-6.5= 143.5 tons

the correct option is 2.

step-by-step explanation:

according to the given information triangle abc is a right angle triangle with right angle at a. segment ab is 5 and segment ac is 7. point d is on segment bc and angles adb and adc are right angles.

it is given that triangles abd, cad, and cba are similar.

two triangles are similar if their corresponding sides are proportional.

in triangle cba, using pythagoras theorem

                      )

triangle abd and cba are similar,

                            (2)

triangle cad and cba are similar,

                      )

using (1), (2) and (3), we get

hence proved.

therefore option 2 is correct.
