Answer:

AB = 4

BC = 4

AC = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, B is the midpoint of AC which means it divided the AC into two equal parts. Using this information we can write the following equation:

5x - 6 = 2x add 6 to both sides

5x = 2x + 6 subtract 2x from both sides

3x = 6 divide both sides by 3

x = 2 to find the length of AB, AC, and BC replace x with 2

AB = 5*2 - 6

BC = 2*2

AC = 8 (sum of AB and BC)

A baby weighed 7.25 lb at birth. At the end of 8 months, the baby weighed 2.5 times its birth weight. How many pounds did the ba

Vesnalui [34]

Answer: 18.125 lbs

Explanation: The baby weighed 18.125 pounds at the end of eight months.

The baby weighed 7.25 lbs at birth. Eight months later, he weighed 2.5 or 2½ times its birth weight. Multiply 7.25 by 2.5 (which equals 18.125).

So now eight months later, he's 18.125 pounds.

Yeah because he was at least 80% and when you add the grain and carbon that was total. Then divide the carbon. It will be 80%

Dilate a triangle with vertices (0,0), (0,2) and (2,0) using the scale factor k=3. What is the value of the ratio (new to origin

seropon [69]

Answer:

Part a) The ratio of the perimeters is $3$

Part b) The ratio of the areas is $9$

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A) What is the value of the ratio (new to original) of the perimeters?

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its perimeters is equal to the scale factor

Let

z-----> the scale factor

x-----> the perimeter of the new triangle

y-----> the perimeter of the original triangle

$z=\frac{x}{y}$

we have

$z=3$

substitute

$\frac{x}{y}=3$

Part B) What is the value of the ratio (new to original) of the areas?

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its areas is equal to the scale factor squared

Let

z-----> the scale factor

x-----> the area of the new triangle

y-----> the area of the original triangle

$z^{2}=\frac{x}{y}$

we have

$z=3$

substitute

$\frac{x}{y}=3^{2}$

$\frac{x}{y}=9}$
