An insect is standing next to a flower. The insect is 1 cm tall and makes a shadow of 0.5 cm. If the flower makes a 15-cm shadow, how tall is the flower?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

30 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

set up a proportion of insect height over its shadow equals flower height over its shadow, then cross-multiply

1/.5 = x/15

.5x = 15

x = 30

PLEASE DO NOT SOLVE, I KNOW THE ANSWER IS 12.8. JUST WRITE A PROPORTION ON HOW YOU GET THE ANSWER

Answers

Answer:

12.8

Step-by-step explanation:

(16÷100)×80 = 12.8

To start, you need to move the decimal point over two places to the right, which gives you 0.16. You can then multiply 0.16 by 80, which gives you 12.8.

Can someone please solve this it's very important thank you

So basically you have the equation y=6/x-2 and as it shows you in the example on the bottom of the page, you plug in the X values for X and whatever you get will be the Y on the other side. For example the first one is already done for you so in the second one you take the next X which is -3 and plug it into your equation. Y=6/(-3)-2 and that would reduce to Y=6/-5 and you can either put that for your next answer or convert it into a decimal. (This example is for the second answer in the Y column)

-4 (x +3) = 8 can somebody help me

Answers

Answer:

x= -5

Step-by-step explanation:

-4 (x +3) = 8

-4x - 12 = 8

-4x = 20

x= -5

The answer is x=-5
You distribute to get
-4x-12=8
-4x=8+12
-4x=20
Divide both sides by -4
X= -5

Triangle ABC is an acute triangle. Two sides measure 5 and 7. What is the range of possible values for its third side?

Answers

Answer:

the desired range is 2 < t < 12.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the third side is 12 (the sum of 5 and 7), we don't really have a triangle, since the 5-unit and 7-unit sides add up to 12 and lie on the third side (of length 12).

Since triangle ABC is acute, all its angles are between 0 and 90 degrees.  So the third side can be 12 but not greater.  The smallest possible length of the third side is 2, since 5 + 2 = 7.

Thus, the desired range is 2 < t < 12.

2. What is the domain of the function shown below?
у
A. -1 < x < 6
B. -1 < y = 6
C. -2 < x < 5
D. -1 3y = 6

Answers

Answer:

Option A is the correct answer

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex] - 1 \leqslant x \leqslant 6[/tex]

The domain of the function is -1 ≤ x ≤ 6 or x ∈ [-1, 6] option (A) -1 ≤ x ≤ 6 is correct.

What is a function?

It is defined as a special type of relationship, and they have a predefined domain and range according to the function every value in the domain is related to exactly one value in the range.

We have a given a graph of a function in the picture.

As we can see, the at point x = -1 graph starts, and it has dark dot which means function values exist at x = -1.

Similarly, at x = 6 the function value exist.

The domain of the function:

-1 ≤ x ≤ 6

Thus, the domain of the function is -1 ≤ x ≤ 6 or x ∈ [-1, 6] option (A) -1 ≤ x ≤ 6 is correct.

Plz hurryThe center of circle Q has coordinates Q(6,-4) . If circle Q passes through R(14,2) , what is the length of its diameter?

Answers

Answer:

the diameter is twice the circle radius, or 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that the radius is half the diameter <=> the diameter is twice the radius.  In this problem we need to find the radius first, then multiply it by 2 to obtain the diameter.

We need to determine the distance between the center of the circle Q(6, -4) and the point R(14, 2) on the circle.  

The Pythagorean Theorem applies here.  Going from Q to R, x changes from 6 to 14, or 8 units, which is the horizontal leg of a right triangle, and y changes from -4 to 2, or 6 units.  Thus, according to the Pythagorean Theorem, the length of the hypotenuse of this triangle is

r = √(6² + 8²) = √100 = 10

and so the diameter is twice that, or 20.

Rank the following in order from most precise to least precise.

1st most = 8.43 inches

2nd most = 5,426 Seconds

3rd most = 1580 meters

4th most = 1500 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

8.43 inches = 0.7025 feet is most precise as it rounded to 0.7 feet it wouldn't be precise enough.

9. Bianca is hosting a dinner party for 10 people. The main course's recipe states
that 400 g of sausage and 500 g of dry pasta is enough for four people.
a) How much sausage will she need?
b) How much pasta will she need?​

Answers

Answer:

a) 1000 grams

b) 1250 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

Find out how much grams of sausage and dry pasta she needs for each person.

4 people = 400 g

1 person = 400 ÷ 4 = 100 g (sausage)

4 people = 500 g

1 person = 500 ÷ 4 = 125 g (dry pasta)

Find out how much grams of sausage and dry pasta is needed for 10 people.

10 person = 100 x 10 = 1000g (sausage)

10 person = 125 x 10 = 1250g (dry pasta)

Martin Luther King dreams that the people of this world will not judge others by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character. He claims that the world will not be able to shatter the Shackles of prejudice, half-truths, and downright ignorance while judging others by their skin color or culture, therefore we should let go of this rotten habit and view others through a clean sheet. The best way to assure we don't fall into this habit is by believing that Culture does not make people, people make culture, Chimamanda Adichie explains during her TED talk. She claims that this is also how a single story gets created. Show people as one thing, as only one thing, over and over again, and that is what they become. In Adichies TED talk, she explains how the news and storys force a single story. The story of Adichie and her roommate proves this claim. Adichie described how her roommate had felt sorry for her even before she met her. Her roommate has been shown the single story of catastrophe and pity and not the happy sides of Africa. She had seen the news and war photos of Africa, thinking that that's all that ever took place in Africa. Adichie explains how you can prevent this by simply asking questions. If you don't understand, ask questions. If you're uncomfortable about asking questions, say you are uncomfortable about asking questions and then ask anyway., Adichie says. By asking questions you can get around both prejudice and single stories, so ask away! rolling two number dice and tossing one coin I need help please someone please WILL GIVE BRAINLIESTIn your own words, please explain how gender of nouns work in the Spanish language.
