9 : 19 = 6 : x
9 . x = 19 . 6
9x = 114
x = 12,6

Answer=12.6

QR=9
QP=6
TU=19
TS=?

The triangles are similar, so the following equation can be made

9 6
____=____
19 x

Cross multiply
9x=114
divide both sides by 9
x=12.6 (with the 6 repeating) or 12 2/3

TS=12.6

Justin wants to cover the top of a circular swimming pool to keep insects out of the pool. If the diameter of the pool is 20 fee

Answer: The area is approximately 314 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Well if the diameter is 20 feet then the radius will be 10 because the radius is half the diameter, and to find the area of a circle, you use the formula

A= $\pi r^{2}$ where A is the area and pi times the radius squared.

We will represent pi by 3.14

A= 3.14* 10^2

A= 3.14 * 100

A = 314

If the coordinates of point a are -3 and 2 and the coordinates of point B are 7 and 6 the x-intercept of CD is what

AveGali [126]

Answer:

The x-intercept of CD is -19/5

Step-by-step explanation:

If the coordinates of the first point is (-3, 2) and the coordinates of the point B are (7, 6) then we need first to find the equation of the line CD:

We know that the general equation of the line is:

y-y0 = m(x-x0) where (x0, y0) represents a point that belongs to the line and m, is the slope which can be calculated by using the following formula:

m = (x1 - x0) / (y1 - y0)

In this case:

(x1, y1) = (7, 6)

(x0, y0) = (-3, 2)

Then:

m = (7 - (-3))/(6-2) = 10/4 = 5/2.

Then, the equation of the line is:

y-y0 = m(x-x0)

y - 2 = 5/2 (x -(-3))

y = 5/2(x+3) + 2

To find the x intercept we make y=0.

Then y = 5/2(x+3) + 2 = 0

Then:

x = -4/5 - 3 = -19/5

A worker carries jugs of liquid soap from a production line to a packing area, carrying 4 jugs per trip. If the jugs are packed

Allisa [31]

Answer:

B. 2

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that a worker carries jugs of liquid soap from a production line to a packing area, carrying 4 jugs per trip.

Since worker has made 17 trips, so total number of hugs of liquid soap would be 17 times number of jugs carried per trip.

$17\times 4=68$ .

Since each carton holds 7 jugs, so number of cartoons would be $\frac{68}{7}$ .

$\frac{68}{7}\Rightarrow \frac{63+5}{7}=9\frac{5}{7}$

We can see that there are 9 completely filled cartoons and there are 5 jugs remaining, so we need $7-5=2$ jugs.

Therefore, we need 2 jugs to fill the 10th cartoon and option B is the correct choice.
