Answer:
See below
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming a number line:
rs + st = rt
3x-16 + 4x-8 = 60
7x -24 = 60
7x = 84
x = 12
Answer:
a) 2.5
b) 6.25
Step-by-step explanation:
For similar figures, the ratio of any corresponding linear dimensions is the same. The ratio of areas is the square of that.
<h3>Application</h3>
The ratio of linear dimensions, larger to smaller, is ...
(30 yd)/(12 yd) = 2.5
<h3>a) Perimeter</h3>
Perimeter is a linear dimension, the sum of side lengths. The ratio of perimeters is 2.5.
<h3>b) Area</h3>
The ratio of areas, larger to smaller, is the square of the scale factor for side lengths:
(2.5)² = 6.25
The ratio of the areas of the larger to smaller figure is 6.25.
y = 4 + 3x
4 being the entrance cost and 3x being the 3 dollars per pound
Answer: $70 per year.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say that x is the number of years that has passed and y is how much the stamp is worth.
So we know that in zero years the stamp was worth $420 because that is the time Sheri gave her brother Sam the stamp. That could bring up the coordinates (0,420) .
Now we know that in 8 years it was worth $980 and that could be the coordinates (8,980)
To find the rate of change we need to find the different between the y value and divide it by the difference in the x values.
420 - 980 = -560
0-8 = -8
-560/-8 = 70
The rate of change is 70 which means that it grew by $70 every year.
