Answer:

She has 4 pieces of pipe

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to just simply see how many 2 3/8 are in 9 1/2:

(9+1/2)/(2+3/8)=(19/2)/(19/8)=(8×19)/(2×19)=4

Answer:

She will have 4 pieces, each 2 3/8 ft long.

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this, to calculate the number of 2 3/8 ft long pieces that Darlene can cut from a single 9 1/2 ft long pipe, we divide 9 1/2 ft by (2 3/8 ft) / piece:

9.5 ft

----------------------- = 4 pieces (answer)

2.375 ft/piece

I serious help. a ton

Answer:

Since BD bisects Angle ABC, Angle ABD = Angle DBC

$3x+6=7x-18$

Subtract 6 from both sides:

$3x+6-6=7x-18-6$

$3x=7x-24$

Subtract 7x from both sides:

$3x-7x=7x-24-7x$

$-4x=-24$

Divide both sides by -4:

$\frac{-4x}{-4}=\frac{-24}{-4}$

$x=6$

Angle $ABD=3x+6=3(6)+6=18+6=24$

Angle $CBD=7x-18=7(6)-18=42-18=24$

Angle $ABC=ABD+CBD=24+24=48$

A 100-gallon fish tank fills at a rate of x gallons per minute. The function is F(x)=100/x. if the tank has been filling for 20

mixer [17]

The second graph is correct.

There will be a vertical asymptote at x=0, since we cannot divide by 0. Using the x-axis on the second graph, if we substitute 5 in for x, we have 100/5+20 = 20+20=40. There is a point on this graph here. Using 10 for x, we have 100/10+20 = 10+20 = 30. There is a point on the graph here. Every point matches.

Find csc if tan= 3/4

barxatty [35]

Answer:

5/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Tangent is defined as the length of the opposite side of the triangle divided by the length of the adjacent side of the triangle. Since you know that two of the legs are 3 and 4, using the pythagorean theorem you know that the last side is 5. Sin is defined as the length of the opposite side divided by the length of the hypotenuse, which in this case is 3/5. Cosecant is just the reciprocal of that, or 5/3. Hope this helps!
