Using proportions, it is found that the length of the rectangle should be of 152 inches.

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three. Due to this, relations between variables, either direct or inverse proportional, can be built to find the desired measures in the problem.

His proportion of width-to-length is of 5/8. For this problem, the width is of 95 inches, hence the length is found according to the following<em> rule of three</em>:

5/8 = 95/x

Applying cross multiplication:

5x = 8 x 95

x = 8(95)/5

x = 152 inches.

The length of the rectangle should be of 152 inches.

How long will it take to administer 1000 cc at a drop factor of 15 drop/ml and a drip rate of 50 drop/min
gayaneshka [121]
First, we are going to determine the number of drops that needs to be administered by dividing the total volume by the volume per drop. Since, 1 cc (cm³) is equal to 1 mL then, 1000 cc is equal to 1000 mL.

   n = (1000 mL)(15 drop/1 mL) = 15000 drops

Then, divide the number of drops by the number of drops per minute.

   N = (15000 drops)/ (50 drop/min) = 300 mins

Answer: 300 mins or 5 hours

2/x + 3/y = 13 ; 5/x - 4/y = -2​
Tomtit [17]

Given that

(2/x)+(3/y) = 13--------(1)

(5/x)-(4/y) = -2 -------(2)

Put 1/x = a and 1/y = b then

2a + 3b = 13 ----------(3)

On multiplying with 5 then

10a +15 b = 65 -------(4)

and

5a -4b= -2 ----------(5)

On multiplying with 2 then

10 a - 8b = -4 -------(6)

On Subtracting (6) from (4) then

10a + 15b = 65

10a - 8b = -4

(-)

_____________

0 + 23 b = 69

______________

⇛ 23b = 69

⇛ b = 69/23

⇛ b =3

On Substituting the value of b in (5)

5a -4b= -2

⇛ 5a -4(3) = -2

⇛ 5a -12 = -2

⇛ 5a = -2+12

⇛ 5a = 10

⇛ a = 10/5

⇛ a = 2

Now we have

a = 2

⇛1/x = 2

⇛ x = 1/2

and

b = 3

⇛1/y = 3

⇛ y = 1/3

<u>Answer :-</u>The solution for the given problem is (1/2,1/3)

<u>Check</u>: If x = 1/2 and y = 1/3 then

LHS = (2/x)+(3/y)

= 2/(1/2)+3/(1/3)

= (2×2)+(3×3)

= 4+9

= 13

= RHS

LHS=RHS is true

and

LHS=(5/x)-(4/y)

⇛ 5/(1/2)- 4/(1/3)

⇛(5×2)-(4×3)

⇛ 10-12

⇛ -2

⇛RHS

LHS = RHS is true

A student concluded that the solution to the equation sqrt2x+1 +3=0 is x=4. Do you agree? Why or why not?
Katyanochek1 [597]

Just put 4 as x in the equation and solve it. The new equation is:

sqrt(2*4)+1+3 = 0

Now we can solve it.

sqrt(2*4) becomes sqrt8:

sqrt8+1+3=0. -------> sqrt8+4=0

The sqrt of 8 is about 2.83.. so 2.83+4 is:

6.83

So we have 6.83 as the answer

but 6.83 does not equal 0 so x cannot equal 4

The altitude is the mean proportional between the left and right parts of the hyptenuse

\cfrac{FI}{GI} =  \cfrac{GI}{HI} \ \ \Rightarrow \ \  \cfrac{FI}{15} =  \cfrac{15}{16} \ \ \Rightarrow \ \ FI= \cfrac{15 \cdot 15 }{16} \approx  14.1
