Using proportions, it is found that Felipe needs 23.625 meters of wood to make that many birdhouses.

<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.

To make an amount, he needs 5 1/4 meters = 5.25 meters. How many meters he needs to make 4 1/2 = 4.5 times the amount?

5.25 x 4.5 = 23.625 meters.

Felipe needs 23.625 meters of wood to make that many birdhouses.

(05.01)<br><br> 4^x = 8^x − 1<br> a. x=3/4<br> b. x=1<br> c. x=3<br> d. x=6<br> Algebra 2
Virty [35]

Answer:

c. x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

4^x = 8^(x − 1)

4 = 2^2

8 = 2^3

2^2^x = 2^3^(x-1)

We know that a^b^c = a^(b*c)

2^(2x) = 2^(3*(x-1))

2^(2x) = 2^(3x-3)

The bases are the same so the exponents are the same

2x = 3x-3

Subtract 3x from each side

2x-3x = 3x-3-3x

-x = -3

x =3

Solve the following system of equations using elimination: <br> -x+5y=8 <br> And<br> 3x+7y=-2
djyliett [7]

Answer:

x=-3, y=1. (-3, 1).

Step-by-step explanation:

-x+5y=8

3x+7y=-2

----------------

3(-x+5y)=3(8)

3x+7y=-2

--------------------

-3x+15y=24

3x+7y=-2

------------------

22y=22

y=22/22

y=1

-x+5(1)=8

-x+5=8

-x=8-5

-x=3

x=-3

What is the nearest perimeter of rectangle ABCD, to the nearest tenth?
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:  B

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter = 2(length+width)

 'CD' = 20×cos(30) = 17.3205

width 'AD' = 20×cos(60) = 10

Perimeter = 2(17.3205+10)

= 2(27.3205)

= 54.641 =54.6

Which of the following is correct about environmental policy?a. The national forests are protected from the exploitive ""dual us
Andrew [12]

Answer:

Option C is correct.

Environmental regulation has led to dramatic improvements in air and water quality.

Step-by-step explanation:

- The national forests are protected from the exploitive ""dual use policy.

The dual use policy on any idea, technology, breakthrough etc. means such concept can be used for its intended purpose and for military use.

Natural forests are not excluded from this dual use policy & plenty forest exploiters hide under this policy to literally exploit natural forests.

- The Environmental Protection Agency was elevated to cabinet status in 1998 by President Clinton and the Republican Congress

This is not true as the EPA is still not a Cabinet department, but the Administrator is normally given cabinet rank.

- Environmental regulation has led to dramatic improvements in air and water quality.

Regulations have led plenty industries at the forefront of pollution to sit up and fix up. Strict laws and hefty fines have discouraged various water and air pollution means since those regulations came into place. This is the only correct statement about environmental policy amongst the options.

- Policymakers always give more consideration to environmental protection than to economic development when the two conflict.

This is true sometimes, but 'always'!? No, policymakers do not always give more consideration to environmental protection than to economic development when the two conflict.
