\bf \begin{array}{ccll}
\stackrel{burned}{log}&\stackrel{time}{hr}\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
\frac{3}{4}&\frac{1}{3}\\\\
2\frac{1}{2}&h
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{\frac{3}{4}}{2\frac{1}{2}}=\cfrac{\frac{1}{3}}{h}\implies \cfrac{\frac{3}{4}}{\frac{2\cdot 2+1}{2}}=\cfrac{\frac{1}{3}}{\frac{h}{1}}

\bf \cfrac{\frac{3}{4}}{\frac{5}{2}}=\cfrac{1}{3}\cdot \cfrac{1}{h}\implies \cfrac{3}{4}\cdot \cfrac{2}{5}=\cfrac{1}{3h}\implies \cfrac{6}{20}=\cfrac{1}{3h}\implies 6\cdot 3h=20\cdot 1
\\\\\\
18h=20\implies h=\cfrac{20}{18}\implies h=\cfrac{10}{9}\implies h=1\frac{1}{9}

about 1 hour and 6 minutes with 36 seconds.

If the triangle are similar, write a similarity
Vesna [10]

Answer:

The triangles are similar due to AAA

Step-by-step explanation:

'The triangles ABC and DBE are similar because they have a common angle < B, and also angle < E is marked as congruent to angle < A. Then the third angle <C is going to be congruent to angle D as well due to the property of addition of internal angles of a triangle must add to 180 degrees.

Then the triangles are similar due to AAA

Anyone know the area?
Elina [12.6K]
Answer:  The area of the triangle is:  " 8.5 cm² " ; 

                                         or, write as:  " 8\frac{1}{2} cm² " .
_______________________________________________________
Explanation:
_________________________________________________________
The formula {"equation"} for the area of a triangle is:

A = (\frac{1}{2}) * b * h ;
   
in which:  A = area; 
                 b = base;
                 h = [perpendicular] height;
___________________________________
{also, can be written as:  " A = (b * h) / 2 " .}.
______________________________________
Solve for the area, "A" ; by plugging in the known values shown in the figure (image attached):
______________________________________
                             base, "b" = 13 cm ;
[perpendicular] height, "h" =  5 cm ;
______________________________________
A = (b * h) / 2 ;

   = (13 cm * 5 cm) / 2 ; 

   = [ (13 * 5) cm²] / 2 ; 

    = 65 cm² / 2 ;

A  = " 8.5 cm² " ; or, write as:  " 8\frac{1}{2} cm² " .
_________________________________________________________
Answer:  " 8.5 cm² " ; or, write as:  " 8\frac{1}{2} cm² " .

what is an equation of the line perpendicular to y+1=-3(x-5) and passes through (4,-6)? please help quick
Fiesta28 [93]

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the given line is -3. Since perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals of each other, the slope of the line we need to find is 1/3.

Substituting into point slope form, we get:

y + 6 = ⅓(x+6)
