You can create equations to find the lengths and how they compare.

The line is in order of A-B-C-D
Both ratios share BC so we can use that to transfer from one ratio to the next.
  
AB =3x  AC=7x   
subtract them to find the measurement of BC

AC- AB = BC
7x-3x = 4x .  BC = 4x

BD= 9y CD=2y

Subtract them to find the measurement of BC

BD - CD = BC

9y-2y =7y  BC =7y

CD is 100cm so   2y= 100 or y=50

substitute y for bc
7(50)=350 

substitute BC for terms of x

350 = 4x

divide both sides by 4 
X= 87.5

Substitute for AB
AB = 3x

AB = 3(87.5) = 262.5cm

Which sequence of transformations on the red triangle will map it onto the missing portion of the square?
Damm [24]

Answer = C

Solution -

Rotating the triangle 90° counterclockwise will take the triangle to 3rd quadrant and then further moving it 16 steps right will take it to 4th quadrant and followed by 16 steps upward will take it to the desired position which is in 1st quadrant.

natali 33 [55]

Answer:

Hello There!

`~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

If you subtract the volume of the sphere from the cone, you'll get the volume you can fill with flavored ice. Right?

Volume (sphere) = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3

Volume(sphere) = \frac{1}{3}\pi r^2 . h

So that means, The volume left to put in flavored ice is :

Volume(sphere) = \frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h - \frac{4}{3}\pi r^2

So putting in the value for radius and height of the cone and radius of the sphere in the 2nd term will do the thing, I think.

.......

Okay, I think they didn't raise the power but wrote the exponent beside the number. It must be c. They wrote 32 so as to say 3^2 and wrote 0.553 to say (0.55)^3

So the answer is (C)

Hope this helped you. Brainliest would be nice!

Step-by-step explanation:

start with the largest number on top and rhe smaller one on the bottom, of course, as you multiply that way. then each time you finish with one number, cross it out to keep track and add a zeeo to the next line. third line is 2 zeroes, 4th line is 3 zeroes, 5th is 4 zeroes, etc. then add and youll get the final result??
