The flagpole is 70 feet tall

\frac{5.6}{4} = \frac{x}{50}

Divide, 5.6 by 4

1.4 = \frac{x}{50}

Simplify with cross multiplication 1.4 × 50,

70 = x

Dawn Dough and Dale earned different amounts $9.35,$8.52,and$8.25 dale and Doug earned about $9.00 Dawn earned exactly $1.10less
Zielflug [23.3K]

We know that the amounts earned by Dawn, Doug and Dale are from the list of numbers: $9.35, $8.52 and $8.25

We also know that Dale and Doug earned close to $9.00

And that Dawn earned $1.10 less than Dale

Let the amount earned by Dale be x

⇒ Amount earned by Dawn is x - 1.1

If we notice the list of numbers, we see that $9.35 and $8.25 differ by $1.1

Hence, Dale earned $9.35 and Dawn earned $8.25

We are now left with $8.52, which should be the amount earned by Doug. This is correct, since we also know that Doug earned close to $9.

Hence, the amounts earned are:

Dale: $9.35

Doug: $8.52

Dawn: $8.25

Use complete sentences to describe how measurements of position in two directions (vertical and horizontal) are sufficient enoug
posledela

Answer:

We know that our world is in 3 dimensions i.e. there are three directions and so, three co-ordinates are required.

Now, if we have to find a position of an object lying on a flat surface, this means that there are only two directions and so, two co-ordinates are needed.

So, we can define the domain ( xy-axis ) in such a way that there are two axis - horizontal where right area have positive values & left area has negative values and vertical where upward side have positive values & downward side has negative values.

For e.g. if we want to find the position of a pen on the table. We will make our own xy-axis and see in which quadrant the pen lies.

Let us say that the pen lies at (2,3), this means that the position of pen is in the first quadrant or it is 2 units to the right of y-axis and 3 units up to the x-axis.

This way we can see that two directions are sufficient to find the position of an object placed on a flat surface.

Find the coordinates of triangle ABC A(2,1) B(3,0) C(1,-2) after a dilation with a scale factor of 3
Bad White [126]

Answer:

Remember the key word”factor” which means to multiply. Multiple all those numbers by 3!

Step-by-step explanation:I’m going to do 2 of them and you can do the last one (2,1)x3= the dilation (6,3). (3,0)x 3 gives the dilation (9,0). (1,-2)x3 gives the dilation of (3,-6). See it’s very easy.
