Answer:

A and C

Step-by-step explanation:

Sophia was asked to find the original dimension of a reduced hexagon.

A smaller hexagon has a top side length of 1.2 inches and bottom side length of x inches. A larger hexagon has a top side length of 7.2 inches and bottom side length of 9 inches.

Sophia found that the enlarged hexagon’s dimensions were just 6 more than the original hexagon, thus x = 3. What was Sophia’s error?

Sophia should have found the number the dimensions were multiplied by.

Sophia should have divided 9 and 6 .

Sophia should have set up a proportion to solve for x.

Sophia should have multiplied 7.2 and 1.2.

Sophia is correct and did not make an error.

A fish swims upstream a distance of 16 miles in a river with a current of 3 miles per hour. The fish returns swimming
arlik [135]

Answer:

9 mph = the speed in still water

Step-by-step explanation:

Let r = the speed in still water

Then the speed going down stream is r + 3

and the speed going upstream is r - 3

d = rt   or t = d/r

time going downstream is 16/(r + 3) and time going upstream is 16/(r - 3)

The total time was 4 hours, so

\frac{16}{r + 3}  + \frac{16}{r - 3}  = 4   Multiply thru the equation by (r + 3)(r - 3)

Then 16(r - 3) + 16(r + 3) = 4(r + 3)(r - 3)

         16r - 48 + 16r + 48 = 4r^{2} - 36

         4r^{2} - 36 = 32r

         4r^{2} - 32r - 36 = 0

         4(r^{2}  - 8r - 9) = 0

         4(r - 9)(r + 1) = 0

             r = 9  or -1

But a rate of speed cannot be negative, so x ≠ -1

So, r = 9 mph = the speed in still water

I need help to find the surface area
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

125.6 sq ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the Surface Area of the cylinder, we will need to solve for the area of both bases and the rectangle around the cylinder. We can do this by:

------------------------------

Area of bases: (A=\pi r^{2})

A= \pi 2^{2}

A= 4\pi \\A= 12.56

Since we have two bases, we can simply multiply by 2, giving us:

12.56×2= 25.12

-------------------------------

Area of the rectangle: (C=d\pi)

C=4\pi\\C= 12.56\\

12.56×8= 100.48

Add these two together, giving us:

100.48+25.12= 125.6 sq ft.
