Answer:

The ratio of the area of ABCD to the area of EFGH is 9:1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that the shapes are rectangles and they are similar. If the two shapes are similar then their sides are in the same proportion. Therefore the ratio of the sides are in the same proportion.

\frac{AB}{BC}=\frac{EF}{FG}\\  \\\frac{18}{24}=\frac{6}{x}\\\\18x=24*6\\  \\x=\frac{24*6}{18}=8

The area of ABCD = AB × BC = 18 × 24 = 432

The area of EFGH = EF × FG = 6 × 8 = 48

The ratio of the area of ABCD to the area of EFGH = Area of ABCD / Area of EFGH = 432 / 48 = 9/1 = 9 : 1

a football is fired upward with an initial speed of 800 feet per second. It is given that h=-12t^2+360t (h is the height of the
tangare [24]

Answer:

30 s

Step-by-step explanation:

When the ball hits the ground h=0. To find the time t when this happens we must solve the equation h=0.

●h= 0

● -12t^2+360t =0

● t(-12t +360) = 0

● t = 0 or -12t +360 =0

● t=0 or -12t = -360

● t=0 or 12t =360

● t=0 or t=360/12

● t=0 or t= 30

The equation has two solutions.

The ball was fired with an initial speed of 800 feet per second so it cannot hit the ground at t=0.

So the ball hits the ground after 30 s.

A coffee distributor plans to mix some Rift Valley coffee that normally sells for $12.10 per pound with some Mexican Shade Grown
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

24 pounds of Rift Valley coffee

26 pounds of Mexican Shade Grown coffee

Step-by-step explanation:

If R is pounds of Rift Valley coffee, and M is pounds of Mexican Shade Grown coffee, then:

R + M = 50

12.10 R + 13.10 M = 12.62 (50)

Substitute:

12.10 R + 13.10 (50 − R) = 12.62 (50)

12.10 R + 655 − 13.10 R = 631

R = 24

M = 26

In the school library, 28% of the books are non-fiction. If there are 1.224 fiction books in
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

1700 books

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

  • % of non-fiction books in the library as 28%
  • Number of fiction books in the library as 1,224 books

We are required to determine the total number of books.

First we determine the percentage of non-fiction books

We need to know that;

% of fiction books + % of non-fiction books = 100%

Therefore;

% of non-fiction books = 100 % - 28 %

                                    = 72%

Second we determine the total number of books

We know that;

Total number of books = 100%

But;

72% = 1,224 books

Therefore;

Total number of books = (1,224 × 100%) ÷ 72%

                                      = 1700 books

Hence, the library has a total number of 1700 books
