Answer:

25 in x 15 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length = 3/5 the width
Area = 375 in²

Let width = $x$

Therefore, length = 3/5 $x$

First create an equation for the area of the picture based on the given information for its width and length:

$\begin{aligned} \implies \textsf{Area of original picture} & = \sf width \times length\\& = x\left(\dfrac{3}{5}x\right)\\& = \dfrac{3}{5}x^2\end{aligned}$

We are told the area of the enlarged picture is 375 in². Therefore, substitute this into the equation and solve for $x$ to find the width of the enlarged picture:

$\begin{aligned}\textsf{Area} & = 375\\ \implies \dfrac{3}{5}x^2 & = 375\\ x^2 & =375 \cdot \dfrac{5}{3}\\ x^2 & =625\\ x & = \sqrt{625}\\ x& = 25\end{aligned}$

Therefore, the width of the enlarged picture is 25 in.

Substitute the found value of $x$ into the expression for length to find the length of the enlarged picture:

$\begin{aligned}\sf Length & = \dfrac{3}{5}x\\\\\implies \sf Length & = \dfrac{3}{5}(25)\\\\& = 15\: \sf in\end{aligned}$

Therefore, the dimensions of the enlarged picture are <u>25 in x 15 in</u>. The width is 25 in and the length is 15 in, as the length is 3/5 of the width.

A pyramid has a square base of length 8cm and a total surface area of 144cm². Find the volume of the pyramid. (Please use Pythag

Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

$\displaystyle V_{ \text{pyramid}}= 64 \: {cm}^{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given surface area and the length of the square base

we want to figure out the Volume

to do so

we need to figure out slant length first

recall the formula of surface area

$\displaystyle A_{\text{surface}}=B+\dfrac{1}{2}\times P \times s$

where B stands for Base area

and P for Base Parimeter

$\sf\displaystyle \: 144=(8 \times 8)+\dfrac{1}{2}\times (8 \times 4) \times s$

now we need our algebraic skills to figure out s

simplify parentheses:

$\sf\displaystyle \: 64+\dfrac{1}{2}\times32\times s = 144$

reduce fraction:

$\sf\displaystyle \: 64+\dfrac{1}{ \cancel{ \: 2}}\times \cancel{32} \: ^{16} \times s = 144 \\ 64 + 16 \times s = 144$

simplify multiplication:

$\displaystyle \: 16s + 64 = 144$

cancel 64 from both sides;

$\displaystyle \: 16s = 80$

divide both sides by 16:

$\displaystyle \: \therefore \: s = 5$

now we'll use Pythagoras theorem to figure out height

according to the theorem

$\displaystyle \: {h}^{2} + (\frac{l}{2} {)}^{2} = {s}^{2}$

substitute the value of l and s:

$\displaystyle \: {h}^{2} + (\frac{8}{2} {)}^{2} = {5}^{2}$

simplify parentheses:

$\displaystyle \: {h}^{2} + (4 {)}^{2} = {5}^{2}$

simplify squares:

$\displaystyle \: {h}^{2} + 16 = 25$

cancel 16 from both sides:

$\displaystyle \: {h}^{2} = 9$

square root both sides:

$\displaystyle \: \therefore \: {h}^{} = 3$

recall the formula of a square pyramid

$\displaystyle V_{pyramid}=\dfrac{1}{3}\times A\times h$

where A stands for Base area (l²)

substitute the value of h and l:

$\sf\displaystyle V_{ \text{pyramid}}=\dfrac{1}{3}\times \{8 \times 8 \}\times 3$

simplify multiplication:

$\sf\displaystyle V_{ \text{pyramid}}=\dfrac{1}{3}\times 64\times 3$

reduce fraction:

$\sf\displaystyle V_{ \text{pyramid}}=\dfrac{1}{ \cancel{ 3 \: }}\times 64\times \cancel{ \: 3}$

hence,

$\sf\displaystyle V_{ \text{pyramid}}= 64 \: {cm}^{3}$

The volume of a cube with sides of length s is given by v = s^3. find the rate of change of the volume with respect to s when s

katrin2010 [14]

The rate of change of the volume with respect to s when s = 15 centimeters is 3375 centimeters

<h3>What is the volume?</h3>

The formula for volume of a cube is given as;

Volume = a³

Where:

a = length of its side

From the information given, we have;

V = s³

Where s = 15 centimeters

Substitute the value into the formula

v = (15)³

v = 3375 centimeters

Thus, the rate of change of the volume with respect to s when s = 15 centimeters is 3375 centimeters

A football team of 11 players has a mean height of 1.83m. One player is injured and is replaced by a player of height 1.85m. The

trapecia [35]

Answer:

As the average has increased the height of the new player must be more then the height of the player which was injured.

The difference between the previous average and the new average is 0.01 m.

Therefore the average is increased by 0.01 m.

Therefore the total height of all the players is increased by 0.01*11=0.11 m

Therefore as the increase in the total height is made by the player with height 1.85 m,the height of the player who was injured is 1.85–0.11=1.74 m

The height of the player who was injured is 1.74 m
