Mathematics
1 answer:
N76 [4]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

These are similar triangles, so the ratio of their sides is the same for each side.

AB = 8  and  BD = 10

So, the ratio is 8:10   or   4:5

Because the triangles are similar....

The ratio of AC:CE  is also  4:5

12:15 = 4:5

So, 12 is the answer!

graph the image of this figure after a dilation with a scale factor of 2 centered at the origin use the polygon tool to graph t
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

For this answer, I will label the points. Starting at the top left, then top right, then bottom left and bottom right let the points be A, B, C, D.

The new coordinates will be

A(-4,10)

B(4,10)

C(-4,4)

D(4,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is asking for a dilation which is a transformation that makes an image proportionately smaller or larger by a scale factor. The scale factor is how much smaller or larger the shape will be, if the scale factor is between 0 and 1 then it will shrink, if it is greater than one then the image will stretch (be larger). In this case, the scale factor is 2, therefore the image will stretch. Since the center of dilation is the origin, to find the new coordinates simply multiply each x and y value by the scale factor. So A's original coordinates (-2,5) become (-4,10) and so forth. Therefore the equation for this dilation is (x, y) → (2x,2y).

How many 3 digit numbers are possible when a) the leading digit cannot be zero and the number must be a multiple of 4?
guajiro [1.7K]

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume the digits can be repeated.

so, e.g. 555 is a valid number for this problem, right ?

that means we start with permutations with repetition :

n^r

n = the total number of items to pick from.

r = the number of items being picked per result.

we have 10 digits (0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9), and we pick 3 of them.

that gives us (with very little surprise, I hope)

10³ = 1000 different possible numbers from 000 to 999.

from these numbers we eliminate all with leading 0.

as we handled all digits the same way and with the same priority, there is the same amount of numbers for every digit in the leading position.

that means 1/10 of the total amount of numbers has a leading 0, or a leading 1, or a leading 2, ...

so, we need to subtract 1/10 × 1000 from 1000 :

1000 - 1000×1/10 = 1000 - 100 = 900

that would be the numbers 100 to 999.

and we have one more condition : the number must be a multiple of 4.

how many are there ?

well, that's the funny thing about numbers : from all numbers 1/2 of them are multiples of 2 (or divisible by 2), 1/3 of them are multiples of 3 (or divisible by 3), and ... you guessed it, 1/4 of them are multiples of 4 (or divisible by 4). and so on.

and so, 1/4 of our 900 numbers are multiples of 4 :

1/4 × 900 = 225

so, there are 225 possible 3-digit numbers that are multiples of 4 and do not start with a 0.

Len [333]

Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagonals of a parallelogram bisects each other, which means that each diagonal is splitter into two equal parts.

Therefore:

x - 2 = 2x - 7

Collect like terms

x - 2x = 2 - 7

-x = -5

Divide both sides by -1

x = 5

Hi I need question 5 solved using SOH CAH TOA!
Bond [772]

According to the trigonometric functions, we can see that angle x can be found through the one that involves the adjacent side and the hypotenuse, which in this case is the cos,

cos(x)=\frac{27}{30}

then, if we apply the inverse we can find the value of x,

\begin{gathered} cos^{-1}(cos(x))=cos^{-1}(\frac{27}{30}) \\ x\cong25.8 \end{gathered}

Answer:

x\cong25.8

Drag the ordered pair that are 5.5 units apart.
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

  (-1.5, -3.5) and (-1.5, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The x-coordinates in increasing order are ...

  -3, -1.5, 5

The distances between pairs of these coordinates are ...

  -1.5 -(-3) = 1.5

  5 -(-3) = 8

  5 -(-1.5) = 6.5

Clearly, any pair with x = 5 is too far away from any pair with a different x-value.

<u>∆x = 1.5</u>

If the distance between pairs is 5.5, then the distance formula tells us the y-coordinate differences for pairs with x-coordinates of -3 and -1.5 must be ...

  d = √((x2 -x1)^2 +(y2 -y1)^2)

  5.5 = √(1.5^2 +(y2 -y1)^2) . . . substitute known values

  30.25 = 2.25 +(y2 -y1)^2 . . . . square both sides

  √28 = (y2 -y1) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 2.25 and take the square root

This value is irrational. Clearly none of the y-coordinates is irrational, so there are no point pairs with x-coordinates -3 and -1.5 that are 5.5 units apart.

__

<u>∆x = 0</u>

If the x-coordinates are the same, then the y-coordinates must differ by 5.5 in order for the points to be 5.5 units apart. The coordinates in order are ...

  for x = -1.5, y = -3.5, 2, 2.5 . . . . . differences of 5.5, 6, 0.25

  for x = 5, y = -3.5, 1.5 . . . . . . . difference of 5

The only pair we can find that is 5.5 units apart is ...

  (-1.5, -3.5) and (-1.5, 2).
