A rope that is 245 cm long is cut into three pieces. The ratio of the lengths of the first piece to the second piece is 2:3, and the ratio of the lengths of the second piece to the third piece is 4:5. What is the length of the longest of the three pieces?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The length of longest piece is 105 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Rope is 245 cm long.

Ratio of lengths of first to second piece = 2:3.

Ratio of lengths of second to third piece = 4:5.

To find:

Length of longest piece = ?

Solution:

We are given the ratio of first and second pieces AND

ratio of second and third pieces.

Common link is second piece.

We need to make the ratio of second piece equal in both the ratio to find the ratio of all three pieces.

2:3

  4:5

Multiply 1st ratio by 4 and 2nd ratio by 3:

Now, the ratio becomes:

8:12 and 12:15

And the ratio of three pieces can be represented as:

8: 12: 15, this ratio is the first piece: second piece: third piece

[tex]\Rightarrow 8x+12x+15x = 245\\\Rightarrow 35x = 245\\\Rightarrow x = \dfrac{245}{35}\\\Rightarrow x = 7[/tex]

So, the pieces lengths will be

First piece = [tex]8 \times 7 = 56[/tex] cm

Second piece = [tex]12 \times 7 = 84[/tex] cm

Third piece = [tex]15 \times 7 = 105[/tex] cm

So, the length of longest piece is 105 cm.

No, Beth is not correct. The function g(x) has an h value of 5 and a k value of 1. This would be a horizontal translation of the square root function of 5 units to the right, rather than the left.

A No, because it does not check in either equation.
B. No, because it does not check in the first equation.
C. No, because it does not check in the second equation.
D. Yes, because it checks in both equations.

Answers

Solve each equation with (0, 3)

y = -x + 3

3 = -0 + 3

y = 3 (correct since y = 3 in (0, 3))

y = 2x - 3

3 = 2(0) - 3

3 = 0 - 3

3 = -3 (incorrect since it isn't equal)

So... No, because it does not check in the second equation.

you are having a pizza making party. You will need 6 ounces of dough and 4 ounces of sauce for each person at the party (including myself the host) Once you have a total count of guests you have exactly the amount needed for ingredients. the dough and sauce that I have is 130 ounces all together. How many ounces of dough did I buy? Explain How many ounces of sauce did I buy? Explain How many guests are coming to the party? Explain

Answers

Answer:  78 ounces of dough was bought.

52 ounces of sauce was bought.

There were 13 guests .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = Number of guests

As per given, For each person 6 ounces of dough and 4 ounces of sauce is required.

i.e. Total ounces of dough and sauce together required = 6+4=10

The dough and sauce is 130 ounces all together.

i.e. [tex]10x=130[/tex]

Divide both sides by 10 , we get

x= 13

i.e. there were 13 guests .

Total ounces of dough = 6 x ( Number of guests) = 6 x 13= 78 ounces

hence, 78 ounces of dough was bought.

Total ounces of sauce = 4 x ( Number of guests) = 4 x 13= 52 ounces

hence, 52 ounces of sauce was bought.

The total ounces of dough is 78 ounces

The total ounces of sauce is 52 ounces

The total number of guests is 13

The equation that can be used to represent the question given is:

6a + 4a = 130

Where a represents the number of guests at the party.

The above equation means that the total ounces of dough and sauce bought is a function of the number of guests at the party. These total ounces is equal to 130.

6a + 4a = 130

10a = 130

a = 130 / 10

a = total number of guests = 13

The total ounces of dough = 13 x 6 = 78 ounces

The total ounces of sauce = 13 x 4 = 52 ounces

At a fun park, the cost of a rollercoaster ride and a ferris wheel ride is $10. The cost of a Gravitron ride and a Ferris wheel ride is $12. The cost of a rollercoaster ride and a Gravitron ride is $14. What is the cost of each ride?

Answers

Answer:

r = cost of rollercoaster = 6

f = cost of ferris wheel=4

g = cost of graviton=8

Step-by-step explanation:

r = cost of rollercoaster

f = cost of ferris wheel

g = cost of graviton

r+f = 10

g+f = 12

r+g = 14

Take the third equation and subtract the first equation

r+g =14

-r-f = -10

-------------------

g-f = 4

Take this and add it to the second equation

g-f = 4

g+f = 12

-------------------

2g = 16

Divide by 2

g = 8

Now find f

g+f = 12

8+f = 12

f = 12-8

f=4

Now find r

r+g =14

r+8 =14

r = 14-8

In a circle, the sum of the angles that meet at a point is 360 degrees. So now that we have the total, we can subtract all the given information in the picture. We have 84, 75, 68, and x + 73. Now let us set up and equation for this problem.

360 = 84 + 75 + 68 + x + 73

Now combine like terms.

360 = x + 300

Now subtract 300 on both sides.

x = 60

And this is the value of x.

Answer:

50 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

84 + 75 + 68 = 227

This can be proved using the SAS congruence property that two sides and an angle between them are the same.

- Side AD = Side DB (Given in the diagram)

- Angle CDA = Angle CDB = 90° (Also evident from the diagram)

6. Unit rate = 1.3 yards per second

7. Unit rate = 0.8 page per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

The unit rate is simply the comparison of 2 quantities, whereby dividing both, the denominator must be 1.

For example, in the graph given comparing distance walked over time, when x (time in s) = 3, y (distance in yd) = 4.

Unit rate represented by the slope is the yards covered per second.

Unit rate = [tex] \frac{4}{3} = 1.33 [/tex]

Unit rate ≈ 1.3 yards per second

For the second graph given, unit rate of the slope is the number of pages read per minute.

From the graph, 4 pages is read at 5 minutes.

Thus,

Unit rate = [tex] \frac{4}{5} = 0.8 [/tex]

Unit rate = 0.8 page per minute

Given each set of vertices, determine whether PQRS is a rhombus, a rectangle, or a square. List all that apply. Explain your reasoning, P(-2, -3). Q(2, - 6). R(6. - 3). S(2, 1)

Answers

Answer:

Rectangle

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the coordinates P(-2, -3). Q(2, - 6). R(6. - 3). S(2, 1), to determine the type of shape the quadrilateral is, we need to find the measure of the sides. To get the measure of each sides, we will take the distance between the adjacent coordinates using the formula to formula for calculating the distance between two points as shown;

D = √(x₂-x₁)²-(y₂-y₁)²

For the side PQ with the coordinate P(-2, -3). Q(2, - 6)

PQ = √(2-(-2))²-(-6-(-3))²

PQ = √(2+2)²-(-6+3)²

PQ = √4²-(-3)²

PQ = √16-9

PQ = √7

For the side QR with the coordinate Q(2, - 6) and R(6, -3)

QR = √(6-2))²-(-3-(-6))²

QR = √(4)²-(3)²

QR = √16-9

QR = √7

For the side RS with the coordinate R(6. - 3) and S(2, 1)

RS = √(2-6)²-(1-(-3))²

RS = √(-4)²-(1+3)²

RS = √16-(4)²

RS = √16-16

RS = 0

For the side PS with the coordinate P(-2, -3) and S(2, 1)

PS = √(2-(-2))²-(1-(-3))²

PS = √(4)²-(1+3)²

PS = √16-(4)²

PS = √16-16

PS = 0

For the quadrilateral to be a rectangle, then two of its sides must be equal and parallel to each other. A rectangle is a plane shape that has two of its adjacent sides equal and parallel to each other. Since two of he sides are equal i.e RS = PS and PQ = QR then the quadrilateral PQRS is a rectangle. Both rhombus and square has all of its sides equal thereby making them wrong.

Answers

Answer:

4/25 = 0.16

Step-by-step explanation:

The shortest stick must be between 0 and 5/3.  The probability that it is longer than 1 is therefore:

(5/3 − 1) / (5/3 − 0)

(2/3) / (5/3)

2/5

So the probability that both of the shortest sticks are longer than 1 is (2/5)² = 4/25.

H(x) = x + 3 H(x) = 2x − 6 H(x) = 2x + 6 H(x) = x − 3

Answers

Answer:

C. H(x) = 2x+6

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of the cylindrical silo = Area of its circular base × Height

Volume of the cylindrical silo = πr²×H

If the area of the circular base of the silo is given by the function A(x), the volume is given by C(x) and the height is given by H(x), the formula can be expressed as;

C(x) = A(x) × H(x)

The height of the cylindrical silo will be;

H(x) = C(x)/A(x)

Given C(x) = 6.28x³ + 18.84x² and

A(x) = 3.14x²

H(x) = 6.28x³ + 18.84x²/3.14x²

H(x) = x²(6.28x+18.84)/3.14x²

H(x) = (6.28x+18.84)/3.14

H(x) = 3.14(2x+6)/3.14

H(x) = 2x+6

Hence, the function, H(x) that represents the height of the silo is 2x+6.
