Using proportions, it is found that Student 2 is correct, as 37.6/0.1 = 376.

<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.

One tenth is worth 0.1. How many tenths are there in 37.6? The division is given as follows:

37.6/0.1 = 376.

Hence student 2 is correct, as there are 376 tenths in 37.6.

Answer:

5.29

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagorean theorem is used

We will call AB x

x^2 + 6^2 = 8^2

x^2 + 36 = 64

x^2 = 28

x = 5.2915026

<u>x = 5.26</u>

Line segment AB has vertices A(-3, 4) and B(1, -2). A dilation centered at the orgin is applied to AB. The image has vertices A(
bixtya [17]

Answer:

option 2

Step-by-step explanation:

consider the coordinates A (- 3, 4 ) and A' (- 1, \frac{4}{3} )

since the dilatation is centred at the origin, then corresponding coordinates are multiples/ divisors of each other, then image to original gives scale factor.

scale factor = \frac{A'}{A} = \frac{-1}{-3} = \frac{1}{3} and \frac{\frac{4}{3} }{4} = \frac{1}{3}

similarly B (1, - 2 ) and B' (\frac{1}{3}, - \frac{2}{3} )

\frac{\frac{1}{3} }{1} = \frac{1}{3} and \frac{-\frac{2}{3} }{-2} = \frac{1}{3}

How do you find the area of the shaded sector of the circle? The radius is 10in and the sector is 45 degrees
Step2247 [10]

Given:

Radius of the circle = 10 in

Central angle of the sector = 45 degrees

To find:

The area of the sector.

Solution:

Area of a sector is

A=\dfrac{\theta}{360^\circ}\pi r^2

Where, \theta is the central angle in degrees.

Putting r=10 and \theta=45^\circ, we get

A=\dfrac{45^\circ}{360^\circ}\pi (10)^2

A=\dfrac{1}{8}\pi (100)

A=12.5\pi

Therefore, the area of the sector is 12.5π sq. inches.
