Answer:

s = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

since the triangles are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are in proportion , that is

$\frac{AB}{XY}$ = $\frac{BC}{YZ}$ ( substitute values )

$\frac{8}{4}$ = $\frac{s}{5}$ ( cross- multiply )

4s = 40 ( divide both sides by 4 )

s = 10

Samantha is making some floral arrangements.The table shows the prices for packs of six of each type of flower.

belka [17]

Okay so the first thing we should do here is round 5.29 rounds to 5.30 3.59 rounds to 3.60 and 4.79 rounds to 4.80 now add all of those up youll get 13.7 you can round that to 14 so samanthas estimate is accurate

Work out (5.32 x 10^-7): (2.5 x 10^-5)<br>Give your answer in standard form

Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

1.33×10^-6

Step-by-step explanation:

5.32 x 10^-7= 5.32×10^(-5-2)= 5.32×10^-2×10^(-5)

=0.0532×10^-5

(0.0532×10^-5) (2.5 x 10^-5)

0.0532×2.5 × 10^-5

0.133×10^-5= 1.33×10^-1 ×10^-5

1.33×10^-6

The perimeter of this triangle is 25 units. An angle bisector divides one side of the triangle into lengths of 2 and 3. Find the

grin007 [14]

Answer:

8 and 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Sides on one side of the angle bisector are proportional to those on the other side. In the attached figure, that means

AC/AB = CD/BD = 2/3

The perimeter is the sum of the side lengths, so is ...

25 = AB + BC + AC

25 = AB + 5 + (2/3)AB . . . . . . substituting AC = 2/3·AB. BC = 2+3 = 5.

20 = 5/3·AB

12 = AB

AC = 2/3·12 = 8

_____

<em>Alternate solution</em>

The sum of ratio units is 2+3 = 5, so each one must stand for 25/5 = 5 units of length.

That is, the total of lengths on one side of the angle bisector (AC+CD) is 2·5 = 10 units, and the total of lengths on the other side (AB+BD) is 3·5 = 15 units. Since 2 of the 10 units are in the segment being divided (CD), the other 8 must be in that side of the triangle (AC).

Likewise, 3 of the 15 units are in the segment being divided (BD), so the other 12 units are in that side of the triangle (AB).

The remaining sides of the triangle are AB=12 and AC=8.

Suppose the x intercept of the graph of y=f(x) are 2 and 3. what are the x-intercepts of y=8f(x)

Yuliya22 [10]

We are given: Function y=f(x).

First x-intercept of the y=f(x) is 2.

x-intercept is a point on x-axis, where y=0.

Replacing y by 0 and x by 2 in above function, we get

0=f(2)

Second x-intercept of the y=f(x) is 3.

Replacing y by 0 and x by 2 in above function, we get

0=f(3)

We are given another function y=8f(x).

Here only function f(x) is being multiplied with 8.

That is y values of function should be multiply by 8.

Because we have y value equals 0. On multiplying 8 by 0 gives 0 again and it would not effect the values of x's.

Therefore,

x-intercepts of y=8f(x) would remain same, that is 2 and 3.
