The approximate area of the triangular base of James’ tank is 3025 in²

To find the approximate area of the triangular base of James' tank, we need to know what scale is.

<h3>What is scale?</h3>

A scale is the ratio of two dimension. It is given by scale = New dimension/old dimension

Given that the dimensions of James’ tank are each exactly 2 3/4 times the dimensions of Julian’s tank.

The scale of the area of James' tank to the area of triangular base of Julian's tank is S = (2³/₄)²

= (11/4)²

= 121/16

Let

  • A = area of triangular base of James' tank,
  • A' = area of triangular base of Julian's tank = 400 in²

So, scale, S = A/A'

<h3>The approximate area of the triangular base of James’ tank</h3>

So, making A subject of the formula, we have

A = SA'

A = 121/16 × 400 in²

A = 121 × 25 in²

A = 3025 in²

So, the approximate area of the triangular base of James’ tank is 3025 in²

The slope of a line passing through H (-2, 5) is -3/4. Which ordered pair represents a point on this line?
oksano4ka [1.4K]
Answer:
(6,-1)

Explanation:
The slope of the line can be calculated using the following formula:
slope = \frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

We are given that:
slope = -0.75
point (x1,y1) is (-2,5)

We will use each of the given points to calculate the corresponding slope, then compare the calculated slope with the given one.

For point (6,-1):
slope = \frac{-1-5}{6--2} = -0.75 ........> accepted choice

For point (2,8):
slope = \frac{8-5}{2--2} = 0.75 ........> rejected choice

For point (-5,1):
slope = \frac{1-5}{-5--2} = 4/3 ........> rejected choice

For point (1,1):
slope = \frac{1-5}{1--2} = -4/3 ........> rejected choice

Therefore, the first option is the only correct one.

Hope this helps :)

Consider U = {x|x is a negative real number}.
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

{x\ x e U and x has a negative square root} is an empty set.

Step-by-step explanation:

If x e U, x is a negative real number, and they don't have a square root (they don't have even roots). Their square roots are complex numbers, not real ones.
