Answer:

Time required by Ben was 12 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Time Required for Fred = 16 mins

Ben completed his run in 3/4 of the amount of time of Freds run.

We need to find the time required by Ben.

Now Given that;

Ben completed his run in 3/4 of the amount of time of Freds run.

It means that time required by Ben is equal to 3/4  times time required by Fred.

Time required by Ben = \frac{3}{4}\times  Freds \ run

Time required by Ben = \frac{3}{4}\times 16 = 12\ mins

Hence Time required by Ben was 12 minutes.

Triangle A″B″C″ is formed by a reflection over x = 1 and dilation by a scale factor of 2 from the origin. Which equation shows t
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

segment AB over segment A double prime B double prime = the square root of 13 over 2 times the square root of 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangle ABC has vertices at points A(-3,3), B(1,-3) and C(-3,-3).

1. Reflection over x = 1 maps vertices A, B and C as follows

  • A(-3,3)→A'(5,3);
  • B(1,-3)→B'(1,3);
  • C(-3,-3)→C'(5,-3).

2. Dilation by a scale factor of 2 from the origin has the rule

(x,y)→(2x,2y)

So,

  • A'(5,3)→A''(10,6);
  • B'(1,3)→B''(2,6);
  • C'(5,-3)→C''(10,-6)

See attached diagram for details

Note that

A''B''=2AB\\ \\A''C''=2AC\\ \\B''C''=2BC,\\ \\AB=\sqrt{(-3-1)^2+(3-(-3))^2}=\sqrt{16+36}=\sqrt{52}=2\sqrt{13}

so

\dfrac{AB}{A''B''}=\dfrac{2\sqrt{13}}{2\cdot 2\sqrt{13}}=\dfrac{\sqrt{13}}{2\sqrt{13}}

How to test a function graphically​
drek231 [11]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Inspect the graph to see if any vertical line drawn would intersect the curve more than once. If there is any such line, the graph does not represent a function. If no vertical line can intersect the curve more than once, the graph does represent a function.

that is known as the vertical line test

-2 is the answer! Remove the parentheses then move the terms. After that, collect the terms and calculate. Lastly, divide both sides.

Solve for X<br> Please walk me through the steps, I understand most of it I just forgot how to do it
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

x=8

Step-by-step explanation:

first you need to find the unknown corner so you do 180-71= 109

then find the interior angle degree (n-2)*180 (n=number of sides) so (4-2)*180=2(180)=360

then set everything equal to 360:

10x+6+13x-2+8x-1+109=360

(combine like terms)

31x+112=360

(subtract 112 form both sides)

31x=248

(divide both sides by 31)

x=8

sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

B is the better detergent

Step-by-step explanation:

If A has a lower number on the 1-10 scale, that means on average it was closer to the lower end, or the least clean end. This means that A cleans worse than B., and B is better.
