Answer: 77 CD’s

Step by step:
Since we are writing a proportion it will look like this .....
33/1.5 = x/3.5 ( 33 over 1.5 and x over 3.5)

Now that we have our proportion , you cross multiply.....
33 x 3.5 = 115.5
“X” x 1.5 = 1.5x
So now you will have an equation that looks like this....... 1.5x=115.5
Once you have that then you divide 1.5 from each side , then after that then you should have x=77
So it takes 77 CD’s to be in a 3.5 inch high stack .
Hoped this helped , if it didn’t I apologize
Good luck

Pump 1 can empty a pool in 8 hours while Pump 2 can empty the same pool in 9 hours. If the two pumps worked together, how long w

yan [13]

Rate of pump A: 1/8 of a pool per hour
Rate of pump B: 1/9 of a pool per hour
Combined rate: 1/8+1/9 = 17/72 +1/9 = 25/72

So if they work together, the two pumps have a combined rate of 25/72 of a pool per hour (i.e in one hour, the two pumps will empty 25/72 of the pool)

But we want to empty ONE pool (not 25/72 of one). So we need to multiply 25/72 by some number x to get 1.

Now solve for x
x=2.88
It will take the two pumps 2.88 hours to empty the pool.
2 hours 52 minutes 50 seconds

Find the measure of each marked angle!!

tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

60 is the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

10x - 20 = 7x + 4 (Corresponding angles)

10x - 7x = 20 + 4

3x = 24

x = 8

substituting the values,

10(8) - 20

80 - 20

similarly the other angle is 60 since they are corresponding angles.

Which of the following are vertical asymptotes of the function y = 2cot(3x) + 4? Check all that apply. A.x = pi/3 B.x = +/- pi/2

Kisachek [45]

Vertical asymptotes occur when the denominator of a rational is 0, whilst not zeroing out the numerator, making the rational, undefined, in this case

$\bf y=2cot(3x)+4\implies y=2\cdot \cfrac{cos(3x)}{sin(3x)}+4\impliedby \textit{if \underline{sin(3x)} turns to 0}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\textit{let's check}
\\\\\\
A)\qquad \cfrac{cos(3x)}{sin\left( 3\frac{\pi }{3} \right)}\implies \cfrac{cos(3x)}{sin\left( \pi \right)}\implies \cfrac{cos(3x)}{0}\impliedby unde f ined$

$\bf B)\qquad \cfrac{cos(3x)}{sin\left( 3\frac{\pm\pi }{2} \right)}\implies\cfrac{cos(3x)}{sin\left( \frac{\pm3\pi }{2} \right)}\implies \cfrac{cos(3x)}{\pm 1}\implies \pm cos(3x)
\\\\\\
C)\qquad \cfrac{cos(3x)}{sin\left( 3(2\pi )\right)}\implies \cfrac{cos(3x)}{sin(6\pi )}\implies \cfrac{cos(3x)}{0}\impliedby unde f ined
\\\\\\
D)\qquad \cfrac{cos(3x)}{sin(3(0))}\implies \cfrac{cos(3x)}{sin(0)}\implies \cfrac{cos(3x)}{0}\impliedby unde f ined$

natima [27]

Complete Question: You are building a shelf that fits in a corner in the figure the entire shelf is XYZ each unit in the coordinate plane represents one inch find the area of the shelf.

Answer:

112.5 units²

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the shelf = ½*base*height.

The base is the distance between Z(0, 5) and Y(15, 5)

The height is the distance between X(15, 20) and Y(15, 5).

Therefore area of the shelf = ½*ZY*XY

Use the distance formula to find ZY and XY.

Distance between Z(0, 5) and Y(15, 5):

$ZY = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}$
