Let's begin by listing out the information given to us:

We start out by observing that Triangles MKR & ACD are similar or proportional

\begin{gathered} MK=21;AC=\text{?} \\ MR=24;AD=28\frac{4}{5} \\ KR=CD=\text{?} \end{gathered}

We will solve for the missing side by using the similar triangle theorem. This is shown below:~

\begin{gathered} \Delta MKR\approx\Delta ACD \\ \frac{MK}{AC}=\frac{MR}{AD} \\ \frac{21}{AC}=\frac{24}{28\frac{4}{5}} \\ \text{Cross multiply, we have:} \\ 24\cdot AC=28\frac{4}{5}\cdot21 \\ AC=\frac{28\frac{4}{5}\cdot21}{24}=25\frac{1}{5} \\ AC=25\frac{1}{5} \end{gathered}

NEED HELP FAST 100 POINTS AND BRAINLIEST
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

1)The mass of water increases.

2) Freezing point of water decreases.

3) buoyancy of objects in the water increases.

Step-by-step explanation:

Salinity in the oceanic water is attributed by the water coming from other sources like rivers carrying rocks and soil containing salt. Salinity decreases the temperature of water, making it cold and more denser. The cold water settles at the bottom of the ocean. It flows across the oceanic basins as slow currents. The objects being less in density flows over the surface of water. Hence,buoyancy of objects in water increases.

A consultant advises the owners of a phone company that their profit
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

$15.63 ≤ x ≤ $54.365

Step-by-step explanation:

Profit of the phone company is modeled by the equation,

p(x) = -50x² + 3500x - 2500

For the profit of at least $40000,

-50x² + 3500x - 2500 ≥ 40000

-50x² + 3500x ≥ 40000 + 2500

-50x² + 3500x ≥ 42500

-x² + 70x ≥ 850

x² - 70x + 850 ≤ 0

By quadratic formula,

x - intercept of the inequality will be,

x = \frac{-(-70)\pm \sqrt{(-70)^2-4(1)(850)}}{2(1)}

x = \frac{70\pm \sqrt{1500}}{2}

x = 15.635, 54.365

Therefore, $15.635 ≤ x ≤ $54.365 will be the range of cost for which profit will be at least $40000.
