Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You are to assume in both problems that the two triangles are similar. That is a very dangerous assumption -- especially in later math classes. But in this case, there is no other way to do the problem. The two sets of triangles look like they are proportional.  So set up two ratios that are = to each other

On the left

long side small triange / long side large triangle = base small triangle / base large triangle

On the right

hypotenuse/longest leg = hypotenuse / longest leg.

Problem A

Set up the similar Proportion

5/40 = x/20                Cross Multiply

40x = 20*5

40x = 100                   Divide by 40

x = 100/40

x = 2.5

Problem B

Again set up the similar triangle proportion

15/10 = x/2                  Multiply by 2

15*2/10 = x              

3 = x

Answer 2
for the first one x=2.5
for the second one x=3

I WILL MARK AS BRAINLIEST! Find the area and perimeter of the following figures

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

it is really not complicated. we only need to type the numbers into the calculator.

so, what's the problem ? you don't know what a perimeter is ? it is the circumference, the total way you have to go when waking all around the figure.

you don't know the formulas for the areas of specific figures ?

let's start :

a)

the area of a rectangle is length×width. I hope you know this at least since first grade.

the important thing here is : the result is in² and not just in. it means an area counts the little squares that fill that area.

A = 30×8 = 240 in²

the perimeter, as explained, is the whole way around it. so, in the end, as you can easily see, we would have to go 2 times the long side and 2 times the short side.

the result is in (just a length, a distance not an area, not a cube, ...).

P = 2×30 + 2×8 = 60 + 16 = 76 in

b)

the area of a triangle is

baseline × height / 2

in this case (a right-angled triangle) we can assume one of the sides enclosing the 90 degree angle as baseline and the other as height (since there is already a 90 degree angle between them).

and again, the result is ft². we could express it also e.g. as in², but since the basic measures are in ft, it makes it better understandable to use ft².

A = 12×5/2 = 6×5 = 30 ft²

the perimeter is even easier than for the rectangle, as we have one side less to count.

and as before, we stay with ft.

P = 12 + 13 + 5 = 30 ft

c)

this is the only more special case.

but it is still easy.

the area is baseline × height.

and our unit of measurement here is cm, so the result will be cm².

A = 10×2 = 20 cm²

the perimeter is the same principle as with a regular rectangle, as the angles don't matter. only the side lengths matter.

so, again, while waking around it, we have to pass 2 times the long side and 2 times the short side.

and the result is a length, a distance again, so, it is cm.

P = 2×10 + 2×4 = 20 + 8 = 28 cm

1. A= 240 inches squared P= 76 inches
2. A= 30 feet squared. P=30 feet
3. A= 20 cm squared P= 28 cm

Answer:

1/2^2

Step-by-step explanation:

When you have a number to a negative power, you can rewrite it inverting it's fraction and changing the signal of the power. 2 can be wrote as a fraction like 2/1, so you have 2^-2, it's like 2^-2/1, so you invert the fraction and the signal of the power, and have 1/2^2

How far was Zane from the edge of the volcano when he started climbing?

Answers

Answer:

Hope this helps

accoding to the web "He started out 25 meters below the edge of the volcano. It takes him 6.25 seconds to reach the edge."

Answer:

25 meters below the edge; 6.25 seconds  

Step-by-step explanation:

We can represent this with a linear function in slope-intercept form.  

We know the rate of change is 4 since he climbs up at 4 meters per second.  We do not know the value of b, the y-intercept.  

This gives us  

y = 4x + b  

We know that he is 13 meters below the edge after 3 seconds.  Using -13 for y and 3 for x,  

-13 = 4(3) + b  

-13 = 12 + b  

Subtract 12 from each side:  

-13-12 = 12+b-12  

-25 = b  

This gives us the equation  

y = 4x - 25  

He started out 25 meters below the edge of the volcano.  

To find how long it took him to reach the edge, substitute 0 in for y:  

0 = 4x - 25  

Add 25 to each side:  

0+25 = 4x-25+25  

25 = 4x  

Divide both sides by 4:  

25/4 = 4x/4  

6.25 = x  

It takes him 6.25 seconds to reach the edge.

which number produces an irrational number when added to 1/4

Answers

π is an irrational number when it is added to 0.4 we will get an irrational number

Answer:

A. 0.545454 - 1/4 = 0.295454  yes this is an irrational number

C. 3.4641016 - 1/4 = 3.2141016  yes this is an irrational number

Step-by-step explanation:

A. 0.545454 - 1/4 = 0.295454  is an irrational number as the closest fraction is shown below at 3 decimal points only

As this can be converted to a fraction 147727 /500000  ≈ 0.295

B. - 4/9 - 1/4 = -0.694444444 is not an irrational number so answer is no

As this can be converted to a fraction  -173611111 / 250000000

To write 0.694444444 as a fraction you have to write 0.694444444 as numerator and put 1 as the denominator. Now you multiply numerator and denominator by 10 as long as you get in numerator the whole number.

0.694444444 = 0.694444444/1 = 6.94444444/10 = 69.4444444/100 = 694.444444/1000 = 6944.44444/10000 = 69444.4444/100000 = 694444.444/1000000 = 6944444.44/10000000 = 69444444.4/100000000 = 694444444/1000000000. Then divide by 470 and we know to use this some as 250000000/531915 = 470

C. 3.4641016 - 1/4 = 3.2141016  yes this is an irrational number

closest fraction is only   4 significant figures

4017627 /  1250000

=3 and 267627 over 12500003

267627  /1250000

≈3.214  so in closer proof it is an irrational number.

D. sq rt 4 - 1/4 = 1.75 is not an irrational number as this fraction is 7/4 = 1 3/4
