Two sides of a square are divided into fourths and another side of the square is trisected, as shown. A triangle is formed by connecting three of these points, as shown. What is the ratio of the area of the shaded triangle to the area of the square? Express your answer as a fraction.
Answers
==========================================================
Explanation:
Let's say this is a 1 by 1 square. The area is 1*1 = 1 square unit. Whatever the area of the triangle is, we divide it over 1 and it will yield the same value as the area of the triangle. In other words, the area of the triangle will be the answer.
Along the top we have 3 ticks to indicate the top segment has been cut into 3+1 = 4 equal parts. The horizontal distance from the the vertical side of the triangle to the peak of the triangle is 3/4 units. This is because we travel 3 ticks out of 4 total. So this is the height when we consider the vertical segment of the triangle to be the base.
The base is 1 unit as it spans the original square's side length
base = 1
height = 3/4
area of triangle = (1/2)*(base*height)
area of triangle = (1/2)*(1*3/4)
area of triangle = 3/8
ratio of triangle area to square area = (triangle area)/(square area)
ratio of triangle area to square area = (3/8)/1
ratio of triangle area to square area = 3/8Answer:
3/8
Step-by-step explanation:
let side of square=x
Area of a square =x^2
height of a triangle= 3x/4 ( 4/4=1/4) since height is only 3x/4 from the square)
( base =x same side as a square)
Area of a triangle=1/2 bh=1/2(x*3x/4)= 3x^2/8
the ratio of shaded triangle to the area= (3x^2/8)/x^2=3x^2/8x^2=3/8

origin is the corner of square whose one side is 3 X + 4 Y + 5 = 0 find its area.
options:
a.1
b.2
c.3
d.4
Answers
Answer:
The correct option is;
a. 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the origin (0, 0) is the corner of the square
The equation of one of the sides = 3·X + 4·Y + 5 = 0
Therefore, we have;
Y = -3/4·X - 5/4
Which gives the slope as -3/4 and the y-intercept as (0, -5/4)
The sloe of the perpendicular side from the origin to the given line is therefore = -(1/(3/4)) = 4/3
The y-intercept of the current particular perpendicular side = 0
The equation is therefore;
y = 4/3·x + 0
The coordinate of the point of intersection of the two sides of the square above is found by equating the two lines to each other as follows;
4/3·x = -3/4·X - 5/4
4/3·x + 3/4·X = -5/4
25/12·X = -5/4
X = -5/4×12/25 = -3/5
Y = 4/3·x = 4/3× (-3/5) =-4/5
The length of a side = √((-3, 5) - 0)² + ((-4, 5) - 0)² = √1 = 1
The area of a square = (Length of side) × (Length of side)
∴ The area of the square = 1 × 1 = 1
The area of the square = 1.

Find the slope and y-intercept of the following graph.
Answers
Answer: y = -5*x + b
Step-by-step explanation:
A line is written as:
y = a*x + b
where a is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
IIf we have a line that passes through the points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) then the slope of the line is:
a = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
In this case we can see that the line passes through the points:
(0, 2) and (1, - 3)
Then the slope is:
a = (-3 - 2)/(1 - 0) = -5
Then our line is:
y = -5*x + b
And when x = 0, y = 2 then:
y = 2 = -5*0 + b
2 = b
Our line is:
y = -5*x + b

[tex] \boxed{\sf Length \ of \ leg \ y = 13} [/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Pythagoras theorem states that “In a right-angled triangle, the square of the hypotenuse side is equal to the sum of squares of the other two sides”.
[tex] \therefore \\ \sf \implies {84}^{2} + {y}^{2} = {85}^{2} \\ \\ \sf {84}^{2} = 7056 : \\ \sf \implies 7056 + {y}^{2} = {85}^{2} \\ \\ \sf {85}^{2} = 7225 : \\ \sf \implies 7056 + {y}^{2} = 7225 \\ \\ \sf Substract \: 7056 \: from \: both \: sides : \\ \sf \implies (7056 - 7056) + {y}^{2} = 7225 - 7056 \\ \\ \sf 7056 - 7056 = 0 : \\ \sf \implies {y}^{2} = 7225 - 7056 \\ \\ \sf 7225 - 7056 = 169 : \\ \sf \implies {y}^{2} = 169 \\ \\ \sf 169 = {13}^{2} : \\ \sf \implies {y}^{2} = {13}^{2} \\ \\ \sf \implies y = \sqrt{ {13}^{2} } \\ \\ \sf \implies y = {13}^{ \cancel{2} \times \frac{1}{ \cancel{2}} } \\ \\ \sf \implies y = 13 [/tex]
So,
Length of leg y of the right triangle = 13

find the solution of x and y
Answers
Answer:
x = 1.25, y = 1.75
Step-by-step explanation:
The smaller and larger triangles are similar triangles. (the 2 triangles have the same angles).
We know that the smaller triangle has length 8 for it's bottom side when the larger triangle has length 10. This means the scale factor between the 2 is 10 / 8 which is 1.25. Therefore by multiplying the side lengths of the smaller triangle by 1.25 we get the side lengths of the larger triangle.
5 * 1.25 = 6.25
7 * 1.25 = 8.75
However we don't want the whole side lengths we want x and y, We need to subtract 5 and 7 respectively from the lengths of the larger triangles.
Therefore the lengths must be: 6.25 - 5 = 1.25
and 8.75 - 7 = 1.75
Therefore x and y equal 1.25 and 1.75

If (x - 3) is a factor of the polynomial then evaluating the polynomial for x = 3 should give a result of zero, that is

A restaurant catered a party for 40 people. A child’s dinner (c) cost $11 and an adult’s dinner (a) cost $20. The total cost of the dinner was $728. How many children and adults were at the party? Use the table to guess and check. 8 children and 32 adults 9 children and 31 adults 10 children and 30 adults 12 children and 28 adults
Answers
Answer:
x=8 number of children
y=32 number of adults
Step-by-step explanation:
x be children and y for adults
x+y=40 ⇒ y=40-x
11x+20y=728 solve by substitution of y=40-x
11x+20(40-x)=728
11x+800-20x=728
-9x=728-800
x=72/9 ⇒ x=8 number of children
y=40-x
y=40-8⇒ y=32 number of adults
The shortest side of a triangle is 12cm and the area of the triangle is 8 square cm. A similar triangle has an area of 18 square cm. Calculate the shortest side of this triangle
Answers
Answer:
27cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following :
Triangle A:
Shortest side = 12cm
Area of triangle = 8cm^2
Triangle B:
shortest side =?
AREA of triangle = 18cm^2
If triangle A and B are similar :.
Area A / Area B = Length A / length B
8cm^2 / 18 = 12 / length B
Cross multiply :
8cm * Length B = 18 × 12
Length B = 216 / 8
Length B = 27
Therefore, the shortest of the other triangle IS 27cm

Answers
Answer:
Jackson's distance from the finish line after x minutes will be given as;
since from the statements we know that x represents the number of minutes he had run, for us to be able to calculate his distance from the finish line we simply solve the problem mathematically as follows;
x=80-8y
Step-by-step explanation:
from the initial representation we have x+8y=80,
from the preliminary statement we know x to be the number of minutes from the start of the race to the current point Jackson.
so we assume that y in the equation represents the number of distance covered by the x minutes in miles.
that is how we end up with ;
x=80-8y.

You get everything you need from factoring the last expression:
[tex]x^4-y^4=-176\sqrt7[/tex]
The left side is a difference of squares, and we get another difference of squares upon factoring. We end up with
[tex]x^4-y^4=(x^2-y^2)(x^2+y^2)=(x-y)(x+y)(x^2+y^2)[/tex]
Plug in everything you know and solve for [tex]x-y[/tex]:
[tex]-176\sqrt7=(x-y)\cdot4\cdot22\implies x-y=\boxed{-2\sqrt7}[/tex]
Answer:
-2sqrt(7)
Step-by-step explanation:
Solution:
From the third equation, $x^4 - y^4 = -176 \sqrt{7}.$
By difference of squares, we can write
\[x^4 - y^4 = (x^2 + y^2)(x^2 - y^2) = (x^2 + y^2)(x + y)(x - y).\]Then $-176 \sqrt{7} = (22)(4)(x - y),$ so $x - y = \boxed{-2 \sqrt{7}}.$
