1 answer:

3 0

Although part of your question is missing, you might be referring to this full question: The two square pyramids are similar. The side length of the smaller pyramid is 3/4 the side length of the larger pyramid. Which fraction represents the ratio of the base area of the smaller pyramid to the base area of the larger pyramid?

The answer to the given question is 9/16. The fraction represents the ratio of the base area of the smaller pyramid to the base area of the larger pyramid is 9/16.

<h3>What is Area in Mathematics?</h3>

Area is defined as the total space taken up by a flat (2-D) surface or shape of an object. We measure area in square units (cm² or m²). Area is calculated by multiplying the length of a shape by its width.

The ratio of areas of 2 similar squares is the square of the ratios of their similar side lengths. Since the ratio of the smaller side length to the larger side length is 3/4, then the ratio of areas of two similar squares is:

(3/4) ² = 3²/4² = 9/16.

Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The product of distances from the intersection of secants to the near and far intersections with the circle are the same. For a tangent, the near and far points of intersection with the circle are the same. This relation tells us ...

(2√3)(2√3) = x(x +4)

12 = x² +4x

16 = x² +4x +4 . . . . . add the square of half the x-coefficient to complete the square

4² = (x +2)² . . . . . . . . write as squares

4 = x +2 . . . . . . . . . . positive square root

2 = x . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 2

_____

<em>Alternate solution</em>

If you believe x to be an integer, you can look for factors of 12 that differ by 4.

12 = 1×12 = 2×6 = 3×4

The factors 2 and 6 differ by 4, so x=2 and x+4=6.

16 ) GO...

a) 5487 × ( 65 + 35 ) = 5487 × 100 = 548700

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

b) 647 × ( 112 - 12 ) = 647 × 100 = 64700

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

c) 502 × 1,008 = ( 500 + 2 ) ( 1,000 + 8 ) = 500,000 + 4,000 + 2,000 + 16 = 506,016

____________________________

17 ) Go...

a) 585 × 16 × 625 = 585 × 4 × 4 × 25 × 25 = 585 × 4 × 25 × 4 × 25 = 585 × 100 × 100 = 5,850,000

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

b) 147 × 50 × 2 = 147 × 100 = 14,700

____________________________

18) Go...

look : 1729 = ( 1400 + 329 ) = 7 × 200 + 7 × 47 = 7 ( 200 + 47 ) = 7 × 247 = 7 × 13 × 19

____________________________

19) Go...

look : 96 = 16 × 6 = 2⁴ × 2 × 3 = 2⁵ × 3

Thus ;

the factors are : ( 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 6 , 8 , 12 , 16 , 24 , 32 , 48 , 96 )

A gardener already has four and one over 2 ft of fencing in his garage. He wants to fence in a square garden for his flowers. Th

NikAS [45]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

$6\frac{1}{2}$ <u>, "six and one over two ft".</u>

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

Let's considerate the fact that the garden has a <u>square shape</u>.

<h3>1. Finding values of interest.</h3>

Amount of fence that the gardener already has: $4\frac{1}{2}$ ft.

Length of one side: $2\frac{3}{4}$ ft.

If one side measures $2\frac{3}{4}$ ft, and the square garden has 4 sides of equal length, because it's a square, then we must multiply the measure of one side by 4 to find the total length of fence needed:

$4*(2\frac{3}{4})=\\ \\4*(2+\frac{3}{4})=\\ \\(4*2)+(4*\frac{3}{4})=\\ \\8+(\frac{12}{4} )=\\ \\8+3=\\ \\11$

The gardener already has $4\frac{1}{2}$ , which equals $4 + \frac{1}{2}$ . Hence, the difference between the amount needed and the amount that the gardeneralready has will give us the remaining amount required. Let's do that:

$11-(4+\frac{1}{2} )=\\ \\11-(\frac{8}{2} +\frac{1}{2} )=\\ \\11-\frac{9}{2}= \\ \\\frac{22}{2} -\frac{9}{2}=\\\\ \frac{13}{2}$

<h3>3. Express your result.</h3>

$\frac{13}{2} =\\ \\\frac{2}{2} +\frac{2}{2} +\frac{2}{2} +\frac{2}{2} +\frac{2}{2} +\frac{2}{2} +\frac{1}{2}= \\ \\6+\frac{1}{2}=\\ \\6\frac{1}{2}$
