A reaction takes 4 min 28 sec to complete. Which of the following is a correct representation of that time period?

Mathematics

Ostrovityanka [42]2 years ago

Using proportions, the correct representation of that time period is of 4.47 minutes.

<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(when both increase or both decrease) or inverse proportional(when one increases and the other decreases, or vice versa), can be built to find the desired measures in the problem, or equations to find these measures.

We have that one minute has 60 seconds, hence the proportion that the 28 seconds correspond of a minute is:

28/60 = 0.47 min.

Hence the correct representation of that time period is of 4.47 minutes.

The slope of a line that is parallel to each line whose equation is given
Kobotan [32]
Parallel lines, slope is the same so
1) 3x+8y = 12
8y = -3x + 12
  y = -3/8(x) + 3/2, slope = -3/8

slope of a line that is parallel = -3/8

2)5x+4y = 5
  4y = -5x + 5
    y = -5/4(x) + 5/4; slope is -5/4

slope of a line that is parallel = -5/4
--------------------
perpendicular, slope is opposite and reciprocal

3)
3x+8y = 11
 8y = -3x + 11
   y = -3/8(x) + 11/8. slope = -3/8
slope of perpendicular line = 8/3

4)
x = -7, slope is undefined
so slope of perpendicular line is 0

5)
3x+2y = 12
2y = -3x + 12
 y = -3/2(x) + 6 ; slope = -3/2

5x - 6y = 8
6y = 4x - 8
  y = 2/3(x) - 4/3; slope is 2/3

slope is opposite and reciprocal, so the equals are perpendicular

6)
3x + y = 5
y = -3x + 5; slope = -3

6x + 2y = -15
2y = -6x - 15 
y = -3x - 7.5; slope = -3

both have slope = -3 so equations are parallel

prohojiy [21]
He answer to this question is:A. The length is 8 inches, and the width is 5 inches.
The scale factor can be found in the question, "the art team made a scale drawing of the top of the box using a scale of 3 inches to 1 inch". This means the scale drawing should be divided by a scale factor of 3:1 (simplified into 3). 
The scale factor is then divided with the components provided (24 inches in length, 15 inches in width).
(24/3) = 8 inches(15/3) = 5 inches
Your answer is length = 8 inches, width = 5 inches.
