Answer:

The Correct option is C ) 25

Therefore the value of x is 25 when y =40.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Variable 'y' is directly proportional to the variable 'x'.

\therefore y=kx     ......Direct Variation

Where,

k = Constant of proportionality

To Find:

value of x = ? when y = 40

Solution:

First we need to find Constant of proportionality

When x = 20 and y = 32

Substituting the values we get

32=k\times 20\\k=\dfrac{32}{20}=1.6\\\\k=1.6

Now when k =1.6 , y = 40 then x will be

40=1.6\times x\\\\x=\dfrac{40}{1.6}=25\\\\x=25

Therefore the value of x is 25 when y =40.

Para recortar algumas figuras geométricas, um aluno utilizou uma cartolina com 1mx0,8m. Sabendo que ele recortou 2 triângulos, a
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

7190 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Para recortar algumas figuras geométricas, um aluno utilizou uma cartolina de 1 m x 0,8m.

Passo 1

Determine a área de todo o papelão

= Temos dimensões = 1mx0,8m

Área = Comprimento × Largura

= 0,8m²

Nós convertemos para cm²

1 m² = 10.000 cm²

0,8m² = x cm²

Multiplicação cruzada

0,8m² × 10.000 cm² / 1 m²

= 8000 cm²

Passo 2

Sabendo que recortou 2 triângulos, ambos com 20cm de base e 30cm de altura

Encontramos a área de um triângulo

= 1/2 × base × altura

= 1/2 × 20 × 30

= 300cm²

Ele cortou 2 triângulos Portanto, o são dos dois triângulos = 300cm² × 2

= 600cm²

etapa 3

Ele também cortou 2 trapézios ambos com bases de 10cm e 20cm e altura de 7cm.

A área de um trapézio =

1/2 (a + b) h

= 1/2 (10cm + 20cm) × 7cm

= 1/2 × 30 × 7

= 105 cm²

Ele cortou dois trapézios, portanto

A área dos dois trapézios do corte = 105cm² × 2

= 210 cm²

Passo 4

A área total do papelão que foi cortado = 600cm² + 210cm²

= 810 cm²

Etapa 5

Determine em cm² quanto de papelão sobrou.

Isso é calculado como:

Área total do papelão - Área total que foi cortada

= 8000 cm² - 810 cm²

= 7190 cm²

Mr North spent $144,00 to build a fence around the perimeter of bis vegetable garden.He paid $6.oo per yard for fencing.
NikAS [45]
First, you could see the amount of fence he could buy, or 144/6, which would be 24, so Mr. North can buy 24 yards of fencing.
So now to find the possible plans, we know that there are four sides, but the width and the length occur twice since it's a rectangle.
So since we know that, we can just split 24 in half to find the possibilities for one of the width sides and one of the length sides, if that makes any sense. 24/2 = 12.
So now, you could say some possibilities are length = 6 and width = 6, or length = 4 and width = 8.
And now, to consider which plan would be the best, it would probably be a 6x6 design, because it gives the biggest area to the vegetable garden, and is easy to move around.
width = 6
length = 6
area = 36 square yards (6×6)
perimeter = 24 yards (6+6+6+6)
