Answer:

<h2>x = 8m</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two triangles be represented as A and B.

Given two triangles with sides 12m 20m 16m and 6m 10m x.

Lengths of sides of triangle A = 12m, 20m, 16m

Lengths of sides of triangle B = 6m, 10m, x

It can be seen that each length of triangle A are twice that of B i.e triangle B dilated by a factor of 1/2.

A = 2B

<u>Considering the 16m length in triangle A  and comparing it with the 'x'm length in triangle B, we can get the unknown length x as shown;</u>

16 = 2x

x = 16/2

x = 8m

From 10:00 am to noon, the rise in temperature is 4 degrees C, and from 3:00 pm to 5:00 pm, the fall in temperature is 6 degrees
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

(a) 2 degree celsius per hour

(b) 3 degree celsius per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question,

(a) Avearge rate of rise in temperature per hour(T') = Rise in temperature(T)/Time required for the rise(t).

T' = T/t.................... Euqation 1

Rise in temperature (T) = 4 degree celsius, t = 10.00 am to noon = 2 hours.

Substitute into equation 1

T' = 4/2

T' = 2 degree celsius per hour.

(b) Also,

Average rate of fall in temperature per hour (T') = Fall in temperature (T)/Time(t)

T' = T/t

Given: T = 6 degree celsius, t = 3:00 pm to 5:00 pm = 2 hours

T' = 6/2

T' = 3 degree celsius per hour

A cone-shaped kitchen funnel has a diameter of 6 inches and a height of 7 inches. About how many times would you need to fill th
Lerok [7]

Answer:

  D.  10

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the cylinder is given by the formula ...

  V = πr²h

  V = π(4 in)²(13 in) = 208π in³

The volume of a cone 3 inches in radius and 7 inches high is ...

  V = (1/3)πr²h = (1/3)(3 in)²(7 in) = 21π in³

Then the ratio of the volume of the cylinder to that of the cone is ...

  (208π in³)/(21π in³) ≈ 9.905

You would need to fill the funnel about 10 times to fill the can.
