Answer:
The length of the shorter base of the little trapezoid trail is 1 mi.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the shorter base of the large trapezoid is S and the larger base of the large trapezoid is L.
Similarly, assume that the shorter base of the small trapezoid is s and the larger base of the small trapezoid is l.
Since, the trapezoids are similar, so
Now, given that S = 2 mi, L = 8 mi and l = 4 mi and we have to find s.
So, mi. (Answer)
Answer:
The amount of acid in third container is =42%
Step-by-step explanation:
Given , one container is filled with a mixture that is 30% acid a second container filled with a mixture that is 50% acid and the second container 50% larger than the first .
Let, the volume of first container is = x
Then , the volume of second container = (x+ x of 50%)
= x + 0.5 x
= 1.5 x
Therefore the amount of acid in first container = 0.3 x
The amount of acid in second container = 0.75x
Total amount of acid= 0.3x + 0.75x = 1.05 x
Total amount of solution = x+1.5x = 2.5x
The amount of acid in third container is = %
= 42%
1 and 4 will be the expression that makes the equatio. true for all values of x to prove i have done it in the picture attached in this message
