Refer to the figure shown below.

Let x =  the screen width.
Then the screen height is 0.75x.

Because the diagonal of the screen measures 30 inches, the Pythagorean theorem requires that
x² + (0.75x)² = 30²
x² + 0.5625x² = 900
1.5625x² = 900
x² = 576
x = 24 in

Answer:  The screen width is 24 in.

Divide line segments
ser-zykov [4K]

tis noteworthy that the segment contains endpoints of A and C and the point B is in between A and C cutting the segment in a 1:2 ratio,

\bf \textit{internal division of a line segment using ratios} \\\\\\ A(-9,-7)\qquad C(x,y)\qquad \qquad \stackrel{\textit{ratio from A to C}}{1:2} \\\\\\ \cfrac{A\underline{B}}{\underline{B} C} = \cfrac{1}{2}\implies \cfrac{A}{C}=\cfrac{1}{2}\implies 2A=1C\implies 2(-9,-7)=1(x,y)\\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ B=\left(\frac{\textit{sum of "x" values}}{\textit{sum of ratios}}\quad ,\quad \frac{\textit{sum of "y" values}}{\textit{sum of ratios}}\right)\\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill

\bf B=\left(\cfrac{(2\cdot -9)+(1\cdot x)}{1+2}\quad ,\quad \cfrac{(2\cdot -7)+(1\cdot y)}{1+2}\right)~~=~~(-4,-6) \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \cfrac{(2\cdot -9)+(1\cdot x)}{1+2}=-4\implies \cfrac{-18+x}{3}=-4 \\\\\\ -18+x=-12\implies \boxed{x=6} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \cfrac{(2\cdot -7)+(1\cdot y)}{1+2}=-6\implies \cfrac{-14+y}{3}=-6 \\\\\\ -14+y=-18\implies \boxed{y=-4}

Solve the simple interest formula, I = Prt, for P. (2 points)
Maru [420]

Answer:

t= i/pr

Step-by-step explanation:

We were given that the amount of simple interest earned is given by the formula, i= prt

The above formula is an example of a literal equation.

We want to solve this formula for T.

But we can observe that the product of two letters  are multiplying the letter T.

So we multiply both sides of the literal equation by the reciprocal of PR witch is 1/PR to obtain, I*1/PR=*PRT

This implies that, i/pr=t

We can rewrite this as, t=i/pr

Therefore the correct answer is C.
