Answer:
Sailboat A won the race, and it was going 8 feet per second.
Step-by-step explanation:
Sailboat A was traveling at 40 feet per every 5 seconds, so, to find how many feet it was going per second, we would do 40 feet/5 seconds, which is 8 feet.
Sailboat B was traveling at 56 feet per every 8 seconds, so we use the same method. 56 feet/8 seconds is 7 feet.
So, Sailboat A won because it was going faster! :)
Answer:
16
Step-by-step explanation:
Since these are similar triangles you can use any two corresponding sides to figure out the scale factor.
Use the bottom side. Going from the first triangle to the second the scale factor is:
15/9 = 5/3
The population of mastertown is 23,000 in 2012.
Assume that the increase of the population has a rate of 2% increase annually. Writing an equation model will help us find the number of population in the coming years. Here is the equation model using the geometric sequence formula.
An = A1 * r^(n-1)
Population = starting population 2012 * 0.02^[(year - 2012) - 1]
Answer:
draw line through X which is parallel to other two lines
by alternative angles, X = 50 + 70 = 120°
