What is,the answer to this problem

Answers


The key here is to remember that if the figures are "similar", then
each pair of corresponding sides has the same ratio.  In both problems,
the pair of figures is similar.  (It says so twice on the sheet.)

For the triangle in #1): 

-- One pair of corresponding sides is  15yd  and  9yd.
-- Their ratio is  15/9 = 5:3 .

-- The other pair of corresponding sides is  20yd  and  12 yd.
-- Their ratio is  20/12 = 5:3 .

-- For each pair of corresponding sides, the one in the small triangle
     is 3/5 the size of the corresponding side in the big triangle.  

-- The last pair of corresponding sides is  30yd  and  'x' .
-- Their ratio is  5:3 .   'x' is 3/5 of 30yd.


For the quadrilateral in #3):
The figures are not both in the same position.
Compared to the smaller one, the bigger one is rotated
  almost halfway around to the right.
The smaller one has the shortest side on the bottom, but
  the bigger one has the shortest side almost on top.
So you have to be very careful about deciding which side of the
  big one and which side of the small one are corresponding sides.
But the question does tell you that the drawings are 'similar', so
  you know that each pair of corresponding sides has the same ratio. 

-- One pair of corresponding sides is  12in (top of the big one) 
      and  4in (bottom of the small one).
-- Their ratio is  12/4 = 3 .

-- Another pair of corresponding sides is  30in  and  10in .
-- Their ratio is  30/10 = 3 .

-- Another pair of corresponding sides is  36in  and  12in .
-- Their ratio is  36/12 = 3 .

-- For each pair of corresponding sides, the one in the small figure
     is 1/3the size of the corresponding side in the big figure.  

-- The last pair of corresponding sides is  48in  and  'x' .
-- Their ratio is  3 .  'x' is  1/3  of  48in .

Ted says that 3 tenths multiplied by 100 equals 300 thousandths . is he correct

Answers

No he is not correct because .3*100 would equal 30. This is because .3 is not a whole number it is less so multiplying it by a whole number would decreases the amount it would be like dividing 100 by 3.

No, he is not correct.

Further explanation

We can say this is a simple multiplication operation, which is one of four basic operations, i.e.,  

  • addition,  
  • subtraction,  
  • multiplication, and  
  • division.  

The case we face is only a multiplication, not accompanied by another operation.  

Ted said that 3 tenths multiplied by 100 equals 300 thousandths. Let's check the truth.

\boxed{ \ 3 \ tenths = (3)/(10) \ or \ 0.3 \ }

However, 3 tenths are a fraction less than 1 so if multiplied by 100 will produce a number that is less than 100.  

We firmly say, 3 tenths multiplied by 100 do not equal 300 thousandths. Ted is not correct.

Let's calculate the correct result.

\boxed{ \ (3)/(10) * 100 = ?\ }

100 can be divisible by 10, or cross out zeros at 100 and 10.

\boxed{ \ = 3 * 10 \ }

Hence, the correct result is \boxed{ \ (3)/(10) * 100 = 30 \ }

Well,

The example I will use will be the relationship between the Celsius scale and the Fahrenheit scale.

The formula for the conversion between Fahrenheit and Celsius:

F= (9)/(5) C+32

We can immediately see that this is a linear equation if we substitute y for F and x for C.

y= (9)/(5) x+32

or

f(x)= (9)/(5) x+32

It is a line that has a y-intercept of (0,32), and has a slope of 9/5.

I have attached the line below.

The expression 12g gives the number of kilometers a car can travel using g liters of gasoline. How far can this car travel on 5 1/2 liters of gasoline?

Answers

Answer:

66 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

Number of km's traveled by a car using g liters of gasoline  = 12g

Number of gallons of gas required to travel 12g kilometers = g

We have to find

How far this car can travel using 5 (1)/(2) or 5.5 liters of gasoline = x= ?

Now we can find this by substituting g= 5 (1)/(2) in the the above equation representing number of kilometers traveled by the car.

Number of km's traveled by a car using 5 (1)/(2) liters of gasoline = 12 (5 (1)/(2))

x = 12 (5.5)

x= 66 km

So, the car travels 66km in 5.5 liters of gasoline




Substitute in 5 1/2 for g in the expression : 12g=12(5 1/2)=66

So, this car can go 66 kilometers on 5 1/2 liters of gasoline.

Subtract – 7x – 9 from - 4x2 + 3x – 5.

Answers

Answer:

-4x² + 10x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

(-4x² + 3x - 5) - (-7x - 9)

-4x² + (3x - -7x) + (-5 - -9)

-4x² + (3x + 7x) + (-5 + 9)

-4x² + 10x + 4

Final answer:

To subtract – 7x – 9 from - 4x² + 3x – 5, we change the signs of all the terms in the second expression and then combine like terms. The final answer is -4x² + 10x + 4.

Explanation:

To subtract – 7x – 9 from - 4x² + 3x – 5, you simply replace the minus sign before the second expression (– 7x – 9) with a plus sign, and then change the signs of all the terms in that expression. This is analogous to the subtraction of scalars, where for example, 5–2 equals 5+(-2).

Thus, the expression becomes: -4x² + 3x - 5 + 7x + 9. Now, you simply combine like terms. The 3x and 7x can be combined to get 10x, and -5 and 9 can be combined to get 4. The final answer is -4x² + 10x + 4.
