Jake Wanted To Measure The Width Of The Pond, Sohe Drew This Diagram Of Two Similar Triangles.What Is

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Applying the similar triangle theorem, the width, w, of the pond is approximately: D. 13 feet

Recall:

Similar triangles will have corresponding sides that have proportionate length based on the similar triangle theorem.

The two triangles in the diagram are similar.

Therefore, the ratio of their corresponding sides will be equal (i.e. corresponding side lengths that are proportional).

Thus:

[tex]\frac{5}{w} = \frac{7}{18}[/tex]

Divide both sides by 5

[tex]w = \frac{18 \times 5}{7} \\\\w = 12.9[/tex]

Therefore, applying the similar triangle theorem, the width, w, of the pond is approximately: D. 13 feet

The third side is 5 cm longer than the second side.
a The perimeter of the triangle is 1 metre.
Write an equation to show this.
b Solve the equation.
c Find the length of the longest side of the triangle.​

Answers

Answer:

First side is 19, second side is 38 and third side, the longest is 43.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call the first side a.  

The second side, being twice as long as the first, is 2a.

The third side is 2a+5.

The equation is:

a+2a+2a+5=100, since 1 metre is 100 centimetre.

5a+5=100

5a=95

a=19

First side is 19, second side is 38 and third side, the longest is 43.

An equation is formed of two equal expressions. The length of the longest side of the triangle is 43 cm.

What is an equation?

An equation is formed when two equal expressions are equated together with the help of an equal sign '='.

Given to us that the first side of a triangle is x cm long, The second side is twice as long as the first, The third side is 5 cm longer than the second side and The perimeter of the triangle is 1 metre. Therefore,

The length of the first side will be x cms.The length of the second side will be twice x, 2x.The third side is 5 cm longer than the second side, 2x+5.

Since the perimeter of the triangle is 1 meter which is equal to 100 cm. And the perimeter is the sum of all the sides of a triangle. The perimeter can be written as,

[tex]x+(2x)+(2x+5) = 100\\\\x+2x+2x+5=100\\\\5x+5=100\\\\5x=95\\\\x=19[/tex]

Thus, the value of x is 19.

A.)  The equation that represents this condition is x+2x+2x+5=100.

B.) The length of the longest side of the triangle is 2x+5, where the value of x is 19. Therefore, the length of the longest side can be written as,

[tex]\text{Length of the third side} =2x+5 =2(19)+5=38+5=43\rm\ cms[/tex]

Thus, the length of the longest side of the triangle is 43 cm.

Answer:

the teacher bought 100 balloons, and 95 of them were left for the party.

Step-by-step explanation:

red balloons is given, 40.

first you find the green balloons.

the number of green balloons is 3/5 the number of red balloons.

3/5 * 40 = 24

so there are 24 green balloons.

next is yellow balloons.

the number of green balloons is 2/3 the number of yellow balloons.

24 = 2/3 * x

24 ÷ 2/3 = x

24 ÷ 2/3 = 36

there are 36 yellow balloons.

find the total balloons:

40 + 24 + 36 = 100

the teacher bought 100 balloons.

1/20 of the red balloons popped.

1/20 * 40 = 2

2 of the red balloons popped

1/12 of the green balloons popped

1/12 * 24 = 2

2 of the green balloons popped.

1/36 of the yellow balloons popped

1/36 * 36 = 1

1 yellow balloon popped

2 + 2 + 1 = 5

100 - 5 = 95

there were 95 balloons left for the party.

Answer:

A) 40 + d

Step-by-step explanation:

A)

total cost = (cost of the air conditioner itself) + (money charged per day)*(days)

cost of air conditioner itself = $40

money charged per day = $1

days = d

40 + 1*d

= 40 + d

B)

total cost = 40 + d

total cost = $85

85 = 40 + d

Mr.semmler drove 110 miles in 2 hours. At this rate, how many miles will he drive in 6 hours?

Answers

33 miles in 6 hours. The ratio is 110 miles for every two hours. If we want to find the amount of miles driven after 6 hours, you have to first divide 6 and 2. 6 divided by 2 is 3. Now we just have to multiply 110 by 3 which equals 330.

Answer:

330 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

If in 2 hours he drove 110 and you need to know how much miles will he have drove in 6, first you need to know if 2 is a multiple of 6, in this case it is so now you just divide 6/2 which is 3 so you multiply 110X3 wich gives you 330
