Answer:

The ratio in which Brazil is larger than Japan is:

  • <u>1.51 times bigger.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the data for the area of Japan and the area of Brazil are provided in square miles, the following equation can be used to calculate the ratio of the area of Brazil to the area of Japan:

  • Area ratio = Area of the largest country / Area of the smallest country.

As can be seen with the naked eye, the area of Brazil is larger than that of Japan, taking into account these data the equation is replaced:

  • Area ratio = 3 × 106 square miles / 2 × 105 square miles.

The units are canceled and the division is performed obtaining:

  • Area ratio = 1.514285714

Therefore, the approximate answer is: <u>1.51 times Brazil is larger than Japan</u>.

What number must be added to 15,-6, and 12 to have a mean of 5? Explain.
Genrish500 [490]

You need to add a -1

We can find this by setting up the equation like so

x + (-6) + 12 + 15 / 4 = 5

x + 21 = 20

x = 20 -21

x = -1

Now if we insert -1 where x is located in the equation, you will get a means of 5

Write the equation of the line perpendicular to + = that passes through (−,−). Write your answer in slope-intercept form.
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

y = 0.25x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given line is 4x + y = 3

or y = -4x + 3

Comparing this with slope-intercept form y = mx + c :

slope of this line is -4

Product of slopes of perpendicular lines = -1

⇒ slope of a line perpendicular to this is \frac{-1}{-4} = \frac{1}{4} = 0.25

This line also passes through the point (-4,-6)

The equation of a line having slope m and passing through a point (h,k) is

y - k = m(x - h)

⇒ equation of line perpendicular to given line is y - (-6) = 0.25×{x - (-4)}

⇒ y + 6 = 0.25×(x + 4)

⇒ y + 6 = 0.25x + 1

⇒ <u>y = 0.25x - 5</u>

This is in the slope-intercept form y = mx + c with slope m = 0.25 and y-intercept (0,-5)

9. Peter is trying to buy fencing for the perimeter of his garden. His garden is in the shape of a rectangle with a length of 2(
fomenos

Length: 2(x + 6); Width: 3.5x

A rectangle has 4 sides. 2 sides are lengths and 2 sides are widths.

The perimeter is the sum of the measures of all 4 sides.

perimeter = length + length + width + width

perimeter = 2(x + 6) + 2(x + 6) + 3.5x + 3.5x

Use the distributive property on 2(x + 6).

perimeter = 2x + 12 + 2x + 12 + 3.5x + 3.5x

Now let's group all terms with x first, then all the numbers.

perimeter = 2x + 2x + 3.5x + 3.5x + 12 + 12

Now we add like terms. Like terms have exactly the same variables and the same exponents. All terms with x are like terms and can be added together. All terms with no variable are like terms and can be added together.

perimeter = 11x + 24

11x and 24 are not like terms since 11x contains the variable x and 24 has no variable. Since 11x and 24 are not like terms, they cannot be added together. No more simplification can be done, and 11x + 24 is the answer.

Answer: 11x + 24
