Step-by-step explanation:

since we are using Pythagoras

c² = a² + b²

with c being the Hypotenuse (the baseline opposite of the 90° angle),

you want to get the expression

y² = 3² + 3²

so, you pick the ² and put it next to the y left of the "=" sign.

and to the right of the "=" sign you put 3, ², +, 3, ²

In converting 10 inches to centimeters, what unit (omit the number) would you place in the numerator of your ratio?

belka [17]

Answer:

centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

The numerator of the conversion factor always has the "to" units. The denominator has the "from" units. That way, when you multiply, the "from" units cancel:

(xx from) · (yy to)/(zz from) = xx·yy/zz · (from/from) · to = xx·yy/zz · to

Here, you want to convert to centimeters, so centimeters will be the units in the numerator.

10 in · (2.54 cm)/(1 in) = 25.4 cm

_____

The conversion factor is always "1". That is, the numerator and denominator are always equal in value. Here, 2.54 cm = 1 in, so (2.54 cm)/(1 in) = 1. You can multiply by 1 anytime you like. For units conversion, it only has the effect of changing the units.

The area of a square for on a scale drawing of 100 square centimeters and the scale drawing to 1 cm: 2 feet what is the area of

lilavasa [31]

Answer:

1. $\boxed{\text{400 ft}^{2}}$ ; 2. $\boxed{\frac{1}{3716}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1. Calculate the area of the floor

If the area A₁ of a square floor on the scale drawing is 100 cm², the length of a side is 10 cm.

The side length l of the actual floor is

l = 10 cm × (2 ft/1 cm) = 20 ft

The area A₂ of the floor is

A = l² = (20 ft)² = $\boxed{\text{400 ft}^{2}}\\$

Step 2. Calculate the area ratios

We must express both areas in the same units.

Let's express the area of the room in square centimetres.

l = 20 ft × (12 in/1 ft) = 240 in

l = 240 in × (2.54 cm/1 in) = 609.6 cm

A₂ = l² = (609.6 cm)² = 371 612 cm²

The area A₁ on the scale drawing is 100 cm².

The ratio of the areas is

$\frac{A_{1}}{ A_{2}} = \frac{100}{371612} = \frac{1 }{3716}\\$

The ratio of the area in the drawing to the actual area is $\boxed{\frac{1}{3716}}$

A satellite television company charges a one-time installation fee and a monthly service charge. The total cost is modeled by th

Marat540 [252]

(2) y is the total cost, x is the number of months of service, $40 is the installation fee, and $90 is the service charge per month.
y = 40 + 90x

y = total cost
x = number of months of service
40 = one time installation fee
90 = monthly service charge.

Let us assume that the number of months of service is 10 months. then, the total cost would be:

y = 40 + 90(10)
y = 40 + 900
y = 940

Kara used the linear model y=45,000+ 0.05x to predict her total salary from achieving total sales of x.

hoa [83]

Answer:

45,000 is the starting salary with zero sales

.05 is the amount multiplied by the number of sales that is added to her salary

For each sale we add .05 to her salary

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 45,000 +.05x

Rewriting as

y = .05x +45,000

This is in slope intercept form ( y=mx+b) where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

.05 is the slope and 45,000 is the y intercept

45,000 is the starting salary with zero sales

.05 is the amount multiplied by the number of sales that is added to her salary

For each sale we add .05 to her salary
