Fed [463]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

(-2, -3)

Step-by-step explanation:

x coord. from -6 to 4 is 10 units / 5 parts = 2

point B is 2 units * 2 from point A, so x = -2

y coord. from -5 to 0 is 5 units / 5 parts = 1

point B is 2 units * 1 from point A, so y = -3

A and B are two similar shapes the area of shape A is 200cm2 calculate the area of shape B
barxatty [35]

Answer:

Area of shape B = 312.5 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio of Area of A : Area of B = 12² : 15²

Given that area of A is 200 cm², let the area of shape B = x

Therefore:

200:x = 12²:15²

200/x = 144/225

Cross multiply

144x = 200*225

144x = 45,000

x = 45,000/144

x = 312.5 cm²

Area of shape B = 312.5 cm²

Un edificio proyecta una sombra de 7.5m.mientras que un arbol que mide 1.6 m de altura proyecta una sombra 1.85 M¿Cual es la alt
sattari [20]

Answer: The height of the building is 6.49 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be translated to:

"A building projects a 7.5 m shadow, while a tree with a height of 1.6 m projects a shadow of 1.85 m.

Which is the height of the building?"

We can conclude that the ratio between the projected shadow is and the actual height is constant for both objects, this means that if H is the height of the building, we need to have:

(height of the building)/(shadow of the building) = (height of the tree)/(shadow of the tree)

H/7.5m = 1.6m/1.85m

H = (1.6m/1.85m)*7.5m = 6.49m

The height of the building is 6.49 meters.

Determine which system below will produce infinitely many solutions.
mariarad [96]
A system that will produce infinitely many solutions will have the property where all the equations overlap. That means they will have the same slope and y-intercept.

An easy way to determine if they will produce infinitely many solutions is to put all the equations into y=mx+b form. If everything is the same, you know it will have infinite solutions.
