0.5a - 0.3 = 5

Add 0.3 to both sides:

0.5a = 5.3

Divide both sides by 0.5:

a = 10.6

$0.5a - 0.3 = 5 \ |\times 10 \\\\ 5a-3=50 \ |+3 \\\\ 5a=53 \ |:5 \\\\ a=\frac{53}{5} \\\\ a=10\frac{3}{5}\\\\ a=10.6$

A right rectangular prism has edges of 8 feet, 4 feet, and 1/2 foot. How many cubes with side lengths of 1/2 foot would be neede

Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

Edges of 8 feet, 4 feet, and 1/2 foot

Generally the volume V_p of the right rectangular prism is mathematically represented as

$V_p=8*4*0.5$

$V_p=16$

Generally volume of the cube V_c is mathematically given as

$V_c =(\frac{1}{2})^3$

$V_c =\frac{1}{6}$

Therefore total number of cubes is given as

$V=\frac{V_p}{V_c}$

$V=\frac{16}{\frac{1}{6}}$

$V=96$

Rectangle ABCD has vertices at (-7,-2); (1, -2); (1, -8); and (-7, -8) respectively. If GHJK is a similar rectangle where G(2, 5

Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

Points J and K could be located at:

J(2,2)

K(6,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the vertices have a x and y coordinate:

A: x coordinate=-7 y coordinate=-2

B: x coordinate=1 y coordinate=-2

C: x coordinate=1 y coordinate=-8

D: x coordinate=-7 y coordinate=-8

G: x coordinate=2 y coordinate=5

H: x coordinate=6 y coordinate=5

Then it is possible to calculate the distance between the x and y coordinates:

x coordinate of Vertices AB:

x coordinate of B- x coordinate of A=1-(-7)=8

The distance between A and B is 8

y coordinate of Vertices AC:

y coordinate of A- y coordinate of C=-2-(-8)=6

The distance between A and C is 6

Then we know that the side AB of Rectangle ABCD measures 8 and the side AC, measures 6.

Repeat the analysis with Rectangle GHJK. In this case, is only possible to calculate the distance with x coordinate.

x coordinate of Vertices GH:

x coordinate of H- x coordinate of G=6-(2)=4

The distance between G and H is 4

We can see that the distance in x of the Rectangle ABCD is 8, and the distance in x of the Rectangle GHJK is 4, it means that the measure of ABCD is twice GHJK.

Then, if the distance in y coordinate of Vertices AC is 6, we could say that the distance in y coordinate of Vertices GJ is 3.

Points J and K could be located at:

J(2,2)

K(6,2)

Find the area of each figure to the nearest tenth.

sergey [27]

Answer:

Area of triangle ABC=7 square units

Area of triangle A'B'C'=7 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangle ABC is the preimage of triangle A'B'C' under a reflection in the line x=0.

The two triangles are congruent so they have the same area.

We can calculate the area by counting the unit squares the triangle covered.

Each full box is 1 units square.

Each triangle covered

1 full box and 12 partially covered boxes.

Each partial box covered is 0.5 square units.

Therefore the area is

$Area=1+0.5\times12$

$Area=1+6$

$Area=7$ square units
