Answer:

B. There is one boy for every 6 girls in class.

Step-by-step explanation:

When you have a ratio, it compares two numbers. When you have a ratio 1:6 the colon (:) there can be read as "is to" or "for every".

That means that ratio can be read as 1 is to 6 or "there is 1 for every 6."

In this case 1:6 represents the number of boys to the number of girls to class. This means that there is 1 boy for every 6 girls in class.

what is the length of the longest side of a triangle that has the vertices (2, 6), (-4, 6), and (-4, 4)? a. 2/10 units b. 40 uni
rewona [7]
Length (2, 6) to (-4, 6) is sqrt((x2 - x1))^2 + (y2 - y1)^2) = sqrt((-4 -2)^2 + (6 - 6)^2) = sqrt((-6)^2 + 0) = 6

Length (2, 6) to (-4, 4) is sqrt((-4 - 2)^2 + (4 - 6)^2) = sqrt((-6)^2 + (-2)^2) = sqrt(36 + 4) = sqrt(40)  = 2sqrt(10) units

Length (-4, 6) to (-4, 4) is sqrt((-4 - (-4))^2 + (4 - 6)^2) = sqrt(0^2 + (-2)^2) = 2

Therefore, the length of the longest side is 2sqrt(10) units

What is the scale factor to go from small triangle to the large triangle?
Elis [28]
Divide both numbers in one of the ratios by their highest common factor. This will give you the scale factor of the bigger triangle to the smaller triangle.

Find an equation for the line that passes through the points (-2,-6) and (6,-4)
JulsSmile [24]
Slope of line
m= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
=(-4--6)/(6--2)
=2/8
=1/4

Line in two point form
(y-y1)=m(x-x1)
y--2=(1/4)(x-6)
y+2=(1/4)(x-6)
simplify
4(y+2)=x-6 =>
x-4y-14=0
Alternatively, use the slope intercept form:
y--2=(1/4)(x-6) =>
y=(1/4)x - 3/2-2 =>
y=(1/4)x -7/2

A ball falls from the top of a building. When it strikes the ground its velocity is 10 m/s. It took 5 seconds to fall. What is i
suter [353]

Answer:

a = 2 m/s²

Step-by-step explanation:

a = \frac{v-u}{t}

where v is the final velocity, u is the initial velocity, and t is the time it takes. the intial velocity is always 0 m/s. given the equation, we subsitute:

a = \frac{10m/s - 0 m/s}{5s}

a = 10m/s ÷ 5s

a = 2 m/s²
