Area of triangle = 1/2 x base x height
so old triangle we have 1/2 x b x h = 48
new triangle has base 3 times as long and height is half as long
so we would get:
1/2 x (3B) x (1/2H) = area
rewrite as 1/2 x 3/2 x b x H = area
divide by original are os 1/2 x b x h and you end up with 3/2
so new area = 3/2 x old area
new area = 3/2 * 48 = 72 square inches
There are 10 seniors in the class, from which 4 should be chosen by the teacher. The order of the chosen students does not matter. This means that we speak of combinations. THe equation for calculating the number of possible combinations is:
C=N!/R!(N-R), where N is the total number of objects and R is the number of objects we select from the N
In our case, N=10, R=4.
C= 10!/4!*6!=10*9*8*7*6!/6!*4*3*2*1=<span>10*9*8*7/24=5040/24=210
There are 210 different ways for the teacher to choose 4 seniors in no particular order.</span>
Answer:
The word "Of" in an equation is interpreted to be multiplication. Also, you must move the decimal two places to the left to change a percent to a decimal.
1. 20 * .12 = 2.4
2. .3 * 70 = 21
3. 300 * .25 = 75 Blue marbles
4. 40 * .35 = $14
Answer:
the answer are x=4y-20
and x represents the independent variable and y represents the dependent variable
