Answer 1
16/12 = (x-1)/6
x-1 = 4/3 . 6
x = 24/3 + 1 = 9

32/24 = (y+1)/21
y+1 = 4/3 . 21
y = 84/3 - 1 = 25
Answer 2

The value of x is given from proportion and x = 9

What is Proportion?

The proportion formula is used to depict if two ratios or fractions are equal. The proportion formula can be given as a: b::c : d = a/b = c/d where a and d are the extreme terms and b and c are the mean terms.

The proportional equation is given as y ∝ x

And , y = kx where k is the proportionality constant

It demonstrates the equality of the relationship between the expressions printed on the left and right sides.

Given data ,

Let the first polygon and second polygon be similar

So , the ratio of their corresponding sides will also be similar

Substituting the values in the equation , we get

( x -1 ) / 6 = 16 / 12   be equation (1)

On simplifying the equation , we get

Multiply by 6 on both sides of the equation , we get

( x - 1 ) = ( 16 x 6 ) / 12

( x - 1 ) = 16 / 2

On simplifying the equation , we get

x - 1 = 8

Adding 1 on both sides of the equation , we get

x = 9

And ,

( y + 1 ) / 21 = 32 / 24   be equation (2)

On simplifying the equation , we get

Multiply by 21 on both sides of the equation , we get

( y + 1 ) = ( 4 x 21 ) / 3

y + 1 = 4 x 7

y + 1 = 28

Subtracting 1 on both sides of the equation , we get

y = 27

Hence , the value of x is 9

A. 178.3
B. 196.5
C. 250.8
D. 292.5
E. 297. 1

Answers

Answer:

E, 297.1

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the area of the triangle using the formula a= (bh) / 2

Base x height would be 16 x 12, which is 192

192 / 2 is 96 sq meters

Then, find the area of the circle using the formula a= Pi (r^2)

If the diameter is 16, the radius would be 8 because you divide by 2

8^2 is 64, 64 times Pi is approximately 201.1

Finally, add the areas together, 96 + 201.1 is 297.1 or E

John bought a crate of floor tiles $100. The crate had 5 boxes of floor tiles. Each box contained 40 floor tiles. What is the cost per tile ?

Answers

$0.50.
There are a total of 200 tiles (5 x 40)
since John paid $100 for the 200 tiles,
We have to do $100 divided by 200.
Which is .5
So $.50
Each tile would be 50 cents explanation: 40 multiplied by 5 is 200, 100 dollars divided by 200 tiles equals out to be 50 cents a piece :)

141
30 feet
A 20 feet
B. 22.5 feet
C. 24.5 feet
D. 26 feet

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\huge\boxed{\text{B) } 22.5 \ \text{feet}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use basic trigonometric functions to find the closest height of the escalator.

Let's set up a picture from what we already know. The length of the escalator is 30 feet, and it forms a 41 degree angle with the top. Since it will form a 90 degree angle with the ground, we can find the angle between the ground and the beginning of the escalator.

Since all triangles have an angle sum of 180:

[tex]90+41+x=180[/tex] [tex]131+x=180[/tex] [tex]x = 180-131[/tex] [tex]x=49[/tex]

Now we know that the triangle looks something like this.

                   /  | 41°

                 /    |

               /      |

            /         |

30      /           |

       /              |                                                

     /                |

  /                   |

/__________| 90°

49°

We need to find the length of the side between the 41 and 90° angle.

To find which trigonometric operation to use on this triangle, we can use the acronym SOH CAH TOA.

Sine = Opposite / Hypotenuse

Cosine = Adjacent / Hypotenuse

Tangent = Opposite / Adjacent

We can use the sine of the 49 degree angle (opposite / hypotenuse) to find our missing side (since we know the hypotenuse).

Let's set up an equation and solve with our calculator.

[tex]\text{sin}(49) = \frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{hypotenuse}}[/tex] [tex]\text{sin}(49) = \frac{x}{\text{30}}[/tex] [tex]30 \cdot \text{sin}(49) = x[/tex]

We can calculate the sine of 49 with our calculator. We'd end up multiply 30 and that value and get 22.6.

Since the closest value to 22.6 on the answer choices is 22.5, the correct answer would be B) 22.5 feet.

Hope this helped!

What is linear Equation?

When graphed, a linear equation always produces a straight line because it is an algebraic equation with each term having an exponent of 1. It is referred to as a "linear equation" for this reason.

One-variable linear equations and two-variable linear equations exist.

Given

points on free throws = 1

points on 4 free throws = 4x1 = 4

and  points on 2 three point shot = 2x3 = 6

total points are 4 + 6 = 10

and if she made x free throws then points are = 1x

and for y three point shots = 3y

total points for x free and y three point shots

x + 3y

Hence the points are 10 and x + 3y.

Trapezoid

Step-by-step explanation:

They're showing us (with red arrows/triangles) that the bottom and top are parallel, but do not state anything like it for the sides.

That means it's at least a trapezoid.

As nothing suggests the sides are parallel, it's likely not a parallelogram (and it doesn't look like one).

It's also not a kite, as there is no indication that pairs of neighboring sides are equal in length.

As we don't think it's a parallelogram, it's thus not a rectangle (every rectangle is a parallelogram).

Similar with rhombus (every rhombus is a parallelogram) and square (every square is a parallelogram AND a rhombus).

Eva took a taxi from her house to the airport. The taxi company charged a pick-up fee of $3.20 plus $3 per mile. The total fare was $33.20, not including the tip

Answers

Answer: 10 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

You can set this up as an equation where x will represent the number of miles charged. So if we know how much the pick up fee is, how much it is per mile and the total charge we can set up the equation as follows:

3.20 + 3x = 33.20

If we solve for x we will find out how many miles she traveled. So to do so we need to get x on one side and the other numbers on the other side of the equal sign. So to begin we'll subtract 3.20 from both sides:

3x = 30.00

and then divide both sides by 3:

x = 10

So she traveled 10 miles.

The Taxi ride was 10 miles.

What is an equation?

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

We can set an equation where x will represent the number of miles charged. So, the total charge we can set up the equation as follows:

3.20 + 3x = 33.20

If we solve for x we will find out the miles she traveled.

Then subtract 3.20 from both sides:

3x = 30.00

then divide both sides by 3;

x = 10

Therefore, she traveled 10 miles.

Answer:

Hotel B is the least expensive

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for clear details

Required

The least expensive

To do this, we simply divide the total cost by the number of nights to get the unit price

i.e.

[tex]Unit = \frac{Price}{Nights}[/tex]

Hotel A

[tex]Nights = 3\\Price= 192[/tex]

[tex]Unit = \frac{192}{3}[/tex]

[tex]Unit = \$64[/tex] per night

Hotel B

[tex]Nights = 5\\Price= 300[/tex]

[tex]Unit = \frac{300}{5}[/tex]

[tex]Unit = \$60[/tex] per night

Hotel C

[tex]Nights = 7\\Price= 455[/tex]

[tex]Unit = \frac{455}{7}[/tex]

[tex]Unit = \$65[/tex] per night

From the calculations above;

Hotel B is the least expensive because 60 is less than 64 and 65

what are the coordinates for the center of the circle in the length of the radius X squared plus Y squared minus X minus 2Y -11 over four equals zero

Answers

Given:

The equation of a circle is:

[tex]x^2+y^2-x-2y-\dfrac{11}{4}=0[/tex]

To find:

The center of the circle and its radius.

Solution:

The standard form of a circle is:

[tex](x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2[/tex]          ...(i)

Where, (h,k) is center and r is the radius of the circle.

The given equation of the circle is:

[tex]x^2+y^2-x-2y-\dfrac{11}{4}=0[/tex]

Write the given equation in standard form of a circle.

[tex](x^2-x)+(y^2-2y)-\dfrac{11}{4}=0[/tex]

[tex]\left(x^2-x+\left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^2\right)+(y^2-2y+1^2)-\dfrac{11}{4}-\left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^2+1^2=0[/tex]

[tex]\left(x-\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^2+(y-1)^2-\dfrac{11}{4}-\dfrac{1}{4}-1=0[/tex]

[tex]\left(x-0.5\right)^2+(y-1)^2-\dfrac{12}{4}-1=0[/tex]

On further simplification, we get

[tex]\left(x-0.5\right)^2+(y-1)^2-3-1=0[/tex]

[tex]\left(x-0.5\right)^2+(y-1)^2-4=0[/tex]

[tex]\left(x-0.5\right)^2+(y-1)^2=4[/tex]

[tex]\left(x-0.5\right)^2+(y-1)^2=2^2[/tex]            ...(ii)

On comparing (i) and (ii), we get

[tex]h=0.5,k=1,r=2[/tex]

Therefore, the center of the circle is (0.5,1) and radius is 2 units.
