Subtract 1.05 from a certain number. Multiply the difference by 0.8, add 2.84 to the product then divide the sum by 0.01 and get

The number is 6.25.

We will set up an equation for this.  Let x be the unknown number.  Subtracting 1.05 from it gives us

(x-1.05)

Multiplying the difference by 0.8 would give us

0.8(x-1.05)

Adding 2.84 to the product would give us

0.8(x-1.05)+2.84

Dividing the sum by 0.01 would give us

[0.8(x-1.05)+2.84]/0.01 = 700

We will start working backward, cancelling the division by 0.01 first by multiplying:

([0.8(x-1.05)+2.84]/0.01)*0.01 = 700*0.01

0.8(x-1.05)+2.84 =7

Subtract 2.84 from both sides:
0.8(x-1.05)+2.84-2.84 = 7-2.84
0.8(x-1.05) = 4.16

Use the distributive property on the left side:
0.8*x - 0.8*1.05 = 4.16
0.8x - 0.84 = 4.16

Add 0.84 to both sides:
0.8x - 0.84+0.84 = 4.16+0.84
0.8x = 5

Divide both sides by 0.8:
0.8x/0.8 = 5/0.8
x = 6.25

Solve the equation<br><br> 1.6=7.6-5(k+1.1)
zepelin [54]
7.6 - 5(k + 1.1) = 1.6

7.6 - 5(k + 1.1) - 7.6 = 1.6 - 7.6

-5(k +1.1) = -6

-5(k + 1.1) -6
-------------- = ---------
-5 -5

k + 1.1 = 6
-----
5

k + 1.1 - 1.1 = 6
----- - 1.1
5

k = 0.1

Help me please !!!! I need to make sure I am correct with my thinking
Lana71 [14]
1.  Use the Pythagoras theorem
13^2 = x^2 + 5^2
solve for x and youll get the height of the roof.

2.  let x = length of the rpoe)-

x^2 = 9^2 + 12^2

3. Pythagoras again 
20^2 = x^2 + 12^2

The vertices of shape K are at (4,7), (7, 7), (7,4) and (5, 5).
son4ous [18]

Answer:

To find the scale factor of the enlargement, compare the distance between a pair of corresponding points from both shapes.

<u>Shape K</u>

A = (4, 7)

B = (7, 7)

C = (7, 4)

D = (5, 5)

Horizontal distance between A (4, 7) and B (7, 7) = 3 units

<u>Shape L</u>

A' = (0, 11)

B' = (9, 11)

C' = (9, 2)

D' = (3, 5)

Horizontal distance between A' (0, 11) and B' (9, 11) = 9 units

9 ÷ 3 = 3

Therefore, Shape L is an enlargement of Shape K by scale factor 3.

To find the center of dilation (enlargement), draw two lines through 2 corresponding points (e.g. A and A',  B and B') - the point of intersection of these lines is the center of dilation.

Therefore, the center of enlargement is (6, 5)  (refer to the second attached image).

1. \: MC  \: is \:  tangent \:  to \:  (B)\Rightarrow \widehat{BCM}=90° \\ 2. \: MC  \: and \: MZ \: are \:  tangent  \: to  \: (B)\Rightarrow MC = MZ\Leftrightarrow 5x - 9 = x + 7\Leftrightarrow x = 4 \\ 3. \: BM =  \sqrt{ {BC}^{2} + {MC}^{2}  }  =  \sqrt{ {5}^{2} +  {12}^{2}  }  = 13 \\ \Rightarrow EM = BM - BE = BM - BC = 13 - 5 = 8 \\ 4. \:  \tan(60°) = \frac{MC}{BC}  =  \frac{13 \sqrt{3}  }{ BC}\Leftrightarrow BC =  \frac{13 \sqrt{3} }{\tan(60°)} =   \frac{13 \sqrt{3} }{ \sqrt{3} }  = 13 \\ 5. \: MC =  \sqrt{ {BM}^{2}  -  {BC}^{2} }  =  \sqrt{ {20}^{2}  -  {12}^{2} }  = 16 \\ 6. \:BZ =  \sqrt{ {BM}^{2}  -  {MZ}^{2} } =  \sqrt{ {25}^{2}  -  {20}^{2} }  = 15 \\ \Rightarrow XE=BX+BE=BZ+BZ=15+15=30
