Mathematics

bekas [8.4K]3 years ago

Answer:  The correct option is (A). 3.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to find the scale factor of dilation from ΔABC to ΔDEF.

As shown in the figure, the lengths of the sides of ΔABC to ΔDEF are

AB = 5 units, BC = 4 units, CA = 3 units,

DE = 15 units, EF = 12 units, FD = 9 units.

We know that the scale factor is given by

S=\dfrac{\textup{length of a side of the dilated figure}}{\textup{length of the corresponding side of the original figure}}.

Therefore, the scale factor of dilation from from ΔABC to ΔDEF is

S=\dfrac{DE}{AB}=\dfrac{15}{5}=3.

Thus, the required scale factor is 3.

Option (A) is correct.

Jada walks up to a tank of water that can hold up to 10 gallons.When it is active, a drain empties water from the tank at a cons
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

<em>Part A)</em><em>The amount of water in the tank is changing at </em><em>-2/3 gallons per minute. </em>

<em>Part B) </em><em>it will take </em><em>7.5 minutes</em><em> for the tank to drain completely.</em>

<em>Part C) </em><em>The water tank was completely full </em><em>4.5 minutes</em><em> before Jada arrived.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Information fetching:</em>

  • Tank of water can hold up-to 10 gallons.
  • When it is active, a drain empties water from the tank at a constant rate.
  • 7 gallons of water present in the tank when Jade first saw
  • 5 gallons of water left after 3 minutes

<em>Part A) At what rate is the amount of water in the tank changing?</em>

As the gallons were decreased from 7 to 5 in three minutes. It means in three minutes, 2 gallons were decreased.

So, gallons per minute change would be <em>-2/3 gallons per minute. </em>Hence, <em>the amount of water in the tank is changing at </em><em>-2/3 gallons per minute. </em>

<u><em>Note</em></u><u><em>: </em></u><u>negative sign indicates the number of gallons of water are decreasing.</u>

<em>Part B) How many more minutes will it take for the tank to drain completely.</em>

Let 'm' be the number of minutes will it take for the tank to drain completely.

As,

(2/3 gallons per minute) (m minutes) = 5 gallons

So,

    m = 5 (3/2)

      = 15/2

      = 7.5 minutes

<em>So, it will take </em><em>7.5 minutes</em><em> for the tank to drain completely.</em>

<em>Part C) How many minutes before Jada arrived was the water tank completely full</em>

As tank of water can hold up to 10 gallons. So, the tank of water is full when there is 10 gallons of water. So, this is 3 gallons of water more than the total 7 number of gallons at the time when Jada arrived.

As Jada arrived when the tank had left 7 gallons.

Let 'm' be the number of minutes before Jada arrived when the water tank was completely full.

So,

    (2/3) (m) = 3

    m = 3(3/2) = 9/2

        = 4.5 minutes

<em>So, the water tank was completely full </em><em>4.5 minutes</em><em> before Jada arrived.</em>

Which function f (x) , graphed below, or g (x) , whose equation is g (x) = 3 cos 1/4 (x + x/3) + 2, has the largest maximum and
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

g(x), and the maximum is 5

Step-by-step explanation:

for given function f(x), the maximum can be seen from the shown graph i.e. 2

But for the function g(x), maximum needs to be calculated.

Given function :

g (x) = 3 cos 1/4 (x + x/3) + 2

let x=0 (as cosine is a periodic function and has maximum value of 1 at 0 angle)

g(x)= 3 cos1/4(0 + 0) +2

    = 3cos0 +2

     = 3(1) +2

     = 3 +2

     = 5 !

Write the expression in factored form s^2-20s-100
KatRina [158]

Answer:

The factors of given expression are 10+10√2 and 10-10√2.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given a quadratic expression.

s²-20s-100

We have to find factors of given expression.

We use quadratic formula to find factors.

x = (-b±√b²-4ac) / 2a

From given expression, a = 1 , b = -20 and c = -100

Putting values in above formula, we have

x = (-(-20)±√(-20)²-4(1)(-100) ) / 2(1)

x = (20±√400+400 ) / 2

x = (20±√800) /  2

x = (20± √400×2) / 2

x = (20±20√2) / 2

x = 10±10√2

Hence, the factors of given expression are 10+10√2 and 10-10√2.

Seb bought 2 apples and 3 pears.

2a + 3p = 1.59

a = 0.24

Plug it in our equation:

2(0.24) + 3p = 1.59

Multiply:

0.48 + 3p = 1.59

Subtract 0.48 to both sides:

3p = 1.11

Divide 3 to both sides:

p = 0.37
