Answer 1

Answer:  18/7

This approximates to 2.5714

=====================================================

Explanation:

The two triangles are similar. We can use the AA (angle angle) theorem to prove this claim.

Because [tex]\triangle ABC \sim \triangle ADE[/tex], this means:

side AB corresponds to side AD. The letters from AB are the first two letters of ABC while AD are the first two letters from ADE.side BC corresponds to DE. We have BC as the last two letters of ABC and DE the last two letters of ADE

As those bullet points above mention, the order of ABC and ADE matters to allow us to pair up the corresponding angles and corresponding sides.

From that, we can form the proportion below to solve for x

AB/AD = BC/DE

3/(3+4) = x/6

3/7 = x/6

3*6 = 7*x

18 = 7x

7x = 18

x = 18/7

You could convert this to the approximate decimal form 18/7 = 2.5714, but I think it's better to keep it as a fraction.

Answer:

-6m^2 *n^2

Step-by-step explanation:

formula: (m^x)/(m^y)= m^(x-y)

apply formula for (4m^2)/(2m^-3)

=(4m^(2--3)/(2)

=4m^5/2

divide 4/2

=2m^5

next part 3n^5/(-mn)^3

3n^5/(-mn)^3

expand

=3n^5/ (-m^3*n^3)

=3n^(5-3)/ -m^3

=3n^2/ -m^3

both parts:

(2m^5* 3n^2)/ -m^3

= -(2m^5* 3n^2)/ m^3

= -(2m^(5-3)* 3n^2)/ 1

= -(2m^2* 3n^2)

= -(6m^2*n^2)

= -6m^2 *n^2

write an equation in slope intercept form for the line that passes through the point, and is perpendicular to the line y=-1/3x+9;(-6,-2)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y=-1/3x+9

This is written in the format y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b the y-intercept (the value of y when x=0).

Perpendicular lines have a slope that is the negative inverse of the slope of the reference line, in this case -(1/3).  The new slope is 3.  equation is:

y = 3x + b

To find b, enter the given point, (-6,-2) and solve for b:

y = 3x + b

-2 = 3(-6) + b

-2 = -18 + b

b = 16

The full equation is y=3x + 18

Malin and Shawn begin with the same number, $t$. Malin subtracts $6$ from $t$ and then divides the result by $6$. Shawn adds $7$ to $t$ and then divides the result by $7$. If Malin's final answer is the same as Shawn's final answer, what was the number $t$

Answers

Answer:

t=84

Step-by-step explanation:

Malin's answer is $\frac{t-6}{6}$. Shawn's answer is $\frac{t+7}{7}$. We know these are equal, so we have the equation

$$\frac{t-6}{6} = \frac{t+7}{7}.$$

To eliminate denominators from the problem, we multiply both sides by $6\cdot 7$:

$$\frac{6\cdot 7\cdot (t-6)}{6} = \frac{6\cdot 7\cdot (t+7)}{7},$$

then simplify to get

$$7\cdot (t-6) = 6\cdot (t+7).$$

The parentheses are important here! For example, the parentheses on the left side of the equation tell us that it is $t-6$, not just $t$, which is multiplied by $7$.

Now we expand using the distributive property:

7t - 7\cdot 6 &= 6t + 6\cdot 7;\\

7t - 42 &= 6t + 42.

Adding $42$ to both sides gives

$$7t = 6t + 84,$$

then subtracting $6t$ from both sides gives $t=\boxed{84}$.

(We can check that starting from $t=84$, Malin and Shawn do indeed get the same final answer -- namely, $13$.)

when they say like terms, just think about how the letter parts of the expression are the same

like 1/2s and 2s both have the singular variable s

and how 6u and 9u both have the singular variable u

To solve this one you have to find the ones that are connected by variables or look the same

For example.

1x and 2x are like terms because they have the same variable X

4d and 6/2d are like terms because they have the same variable D

4 and 3 are like terms because they have no variables, and they are the same

So now that you understand what like terms are you may so it

1/2 and 2s are like terms because they share the same variable S

6u and 9u are like terms because they share the same variable U

A blueprint has a scale of 4 inches = 12 feet. What is the scale factor? A. 1 inch = 3 feet. B. 3 inches = 1 foot. C. 4 inches = 12 feet. D. 1 inch = 4 feet

Answers

write it in web and then u will find the answer in a calculator

The solution is Option A.

The scale factor of the blueprint is given by the equation 1 inch = 3 feet

What is an Equation?

Equations are mathematical statements with two algebraic expressions flanking the equals (=) sign on either side.

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

Coefficients, variables, operators, constants, terms, expressions, and the equal to sign are some of the components of an equation. The "=" sign and terms on both sides must always be present when writing an equation.

Given data ,

Let the equation be represented as A

Now , the value of A is

A blueprint has a scale of 4 inches = 12 feet

So , the value of equation A is

4 inches = 12 feet

Divide by 4 on both sides of the equation , we get

4 inches / 4 = 12 feet / 4

On simplifying the equation , we get

1 inch = 3 feet

Therefore , the value of A is 1 inch = 3 feet

Hence , the scale factor of the blueprint is 1 inch = 3 feet

A side length of a regular nonagon is an integer. The perimeter of the nonagon is 80
when rounded to the nearest ten. Determine the integer side length.

Answers

If the side length is n, then the perimeter is 9n. The closest multiple of 9 to 80 is 81, so n = 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

A nonagon is a shape with 9 sides. A regular shape means that all angles and sides of the shape is equal. That means let call the side of the nonagon, n. That means the perimeter which is 80, which means all side, n will add up.

[tex]n + n + n + n + n + n + n + n + n = 80[/tex]

or

[tex]9n = 80[/tex]

Solve for n

[tex]n = \frac{80}{9} [/tex]

This rounded would make our interger side, 9
