Answer: C. about 0.71 of the field

Step-by-step explanation:

Since,  Roni can mow the field in 30 minutes.

Thus, the work done by Roni in one day = 1/30

And,  Allie can mow the field in 75 minutes.

Thus, the work done by Allie in one day = 1/75

⇒ The total work done by Roni and Allie in one day when they worked simultaneously,

= \frac{1}{30} + \frac{1}{75}

= \frac{5}{150} + \frac{2}{150}

= \frac{7}{150}

\implies \text{The part of work done by Roni} = \frac{\text{the work done by her in one day}}{\text{Total work they done in one day}}

= \frac{1/30}{7/150}

= \frac{5}{7}=0.714285714\approx 0.71

⇒ Option C is correct.

Solve the system of equations by substitution. 3/8 x + 1/3 y =17/24 and <br> x + 7y = 8
goblinko [34]
\left \{ {{ \frac{3}{8}x+ \frac{1}{3}y  = \frac{17}{14} } \atop {x+7y=8}} \right.

To solve this system by substitution, first isolate x in the second equation.

x+7y=8
x+7y-7y=8-7y
x=8-7y

Now, plug this expression (8-7y) for x in the top equation to solve for y.

\frac{3}{8} (8-7y)+ \frac{1}{3} y= \frac{17}{14}
3- \frac{21}{8} y+ \frac{1}{3} y= \frac{17}{24}
72-63y+8y=17
72-55y=17
-55y=17-72
-55y=-55
y=1

Now that you have y, plug it into the second equation and solve for x.

x+7y=8
x+7(1)=8
x+7=8
x=1

Last step is to plug your x- and y-values in to both equations to check your work.

\frac{3}{8} (1)+ \frac{1}{3} y= \frac{17}{24}

\frac{3}{8} * \frac{3}{3} = \frac{9}{24} ;  \frac{1}{3} * \frac{8}{8} = \frac{8}{24}

\frac{9}{24} + \frac{8}{24} = \frac{17}{24}  <--True

1+7(1)=8
1+7=8   <--True

Answer:
x=1 \\ y=1

Find a polynomial function of the lowest degree, with real coefficients, with the given roots.
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Roots into factors:

x = -4 ----> (x + 4)

x = i -----> (x - i)

x = 5 -----> (x - 5)

(x + i)(x - 4)(x + 5)

(x - i)(x² - 4x + 5x - 20)

(x - i)(x² + x - 20)

x³ + x² - 20x - (ix² + ix - 20i)

x³ + (1 - i)x² - (20 + i)x + 20i

Someone please help me out with these questions . I don’t get them at all.
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

a)similar; b)similar; c)similar; d)NOT similar

Step-by-step explanation:

>In general if

all corresponding angels are ≅, and

all corresponding sides are in proportion

then the Δs are similar

>we have 3 similarity theorems AA, SSS, and SAS

a)

we can use that sum of angles in a triangle is 180 to find the missing angles

180-96-32 = 52

so in the smaller triangle the angles are 96°-52°-32°

in the larger triangle the angles given are 52°-32°

Since there are 2 corresponding angles congruent, AA theorem of similarity says that the 2 triangles are similar. The transformations were that the big triangle was shrunk and rotated

b)

here we are given a pair of congruent angles and we need to check if the sides are in proportion, is 14/44.8 equal to 20/64?

14/44.8 =.3125 is equal to 20/64=.3125

since we have two corresponding sides in proportion and the angles in between them congruent the SAS theorem says that the 2 triangles are similar. The transformation was that the small triangle was dilated.

c)

because we are given the 2 angles are congruent we can conclude that the lines NH and SL are parallel. NH║SL let us conclude that ∡H and ∡ L are congruent because 2 parallel lines cut by a transversal (ML in our case) form congruent angles. So ΔMNH  is similar to ΔMSL because of AA theorem of similarity (one pair of A was given congruent, one other pair of A we concluded was congruent)

d)

here we have to check if all the sides are in proportion to see if SSS theorem of similarity applies here

18/90 = .2

44/202.4≈.22

58.5/211.2≈.28

.2≠ .22 ≠ .28

since the sides are not in proportion the 2 triangles are NOT similar.
