The scale factor of two similar swimming pools is 4:7. The amount of a chlorine mixture to be added is proportional to the volum

It would require 5.25 cups.

Since the amount of chlorine mixture necessary is proportional to the volume of water in the pool, we will use the scale factor of the volume of the two pools, 4/7, to set up a proportion.

4/7 = 3/x

Cross multiply:
4*x = 3*7
4x = 21

Divide both sides by 4:
4x/4 = 21/4
x = 5.25

How to find the measure of angles?
nevsk [136]

Answer:

The best way to measure an angle is to use a protractor. To do this, you'll start by lining up one ray along the 0-degree line on the protractor. Then, line up the vertex with the midpoint of the protractor. Follow the second ray to determine the angle's measurement to the nearest degree.

Is the following number rational or irrational? -3+π
enyata [817]

Answer:

B, irrational

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that π is irrational, since it can not be written as a division between  natural numbers (a sub class of Real numbers called N), it's value is 3,1415(a whole bunch of decimals after this)

If you remove the decimal part of π by subtracting the integer part of it, that is the number 3. the result will still being and irrational number

Since π= 3(the rational part) +0,1415... (the irrational part)

The resut of π-=3= 0,1415...
