when running a line, in a right-triangle, from the 90° angle perpendicular to its opposite side, we will end up with three similar triangles, one Small, one Medium and a containing Large one. Check the picture below.

$\cfrac{4}{x}~~ = ~~\cfrac{x}{9}\implies 36=x^2\implies \sqrt{36}=x\implies 6=x$

Jet001 [13]

Answer:

Teresa should build 7.5 inches model.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Teresa is building a scale model of the JP Morgan chase Tower in Houston.

Her scale model, 1.5 inches represents 61 meters.

The actual building is 305 meters tall,

First find how many 61's are there in 305.

For this divide 305 by 61.

$\frac{305}{61}= 5$

Actual building is 5 times taller than 61. Thus the model should be 5 times taller than 1.5.

multiply 1.5 with 5 gives us:

$1.5\times 5=7.5$

Hence, Teresa should build 7.5 inches model.

A 90-kg astronaut biologist searches for microbial life on Mars where the gravitational acceleration is g = 3.71 m/s2. What is t

Yuki888 [10]

M = 90 kg,
On Mars: g = 3.71 m/s²
Weight = m · g = 90 kg · 3.71 m/s² = 333.9 N
1 N = 0.2248 lbf
333.9 · 0.2248 = 75.06072 lbf ≈ 75 lbf

Find the common ratio of the geometric sequence 6, 48, 384, ...

gregori [183]

Answer:

r = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The common ratio r of a geometric sequence is

r = $\frac{a_{2} }{a_{1} }$ = $\frac{a_{3} }{a_{2} }$ = ..... = $\frac{a_{n} }{a_{n-1} }$

Then

r = $\frac{48}{6}$ = $\frac{384}{48}$ = 8
