The diagonal of a rectangle is 25 in. The width is 15 in. What is the area of the triangle?

1 answer:

3 0

First, find the length
L^2+W^2=D^2 )L for length, W for width, D for diagonal)
L^2=25^2-15^2=625-225=400
L=20
A=1/2 of L*W= (1/2)*20*15=150 square inches

Mrs.Cleaver mixes 1.24 liters of red paint with 3 times of blue paint to obtain purple paint. She divides the paint equally in 5

slamgirl [31]

The amount of blue paint in each container is $\fbox{\begin\\\ 0.744 liters \end{minispace}}$ .

Further explanation:

Mrs. Cleaver mixes 1.24 litres of red paint with 3 times blue paint to obtain purple paint.

So, the amount of blue paint used is calculated as,

${3} \times {1.24}=3.72 \text { liters}$

Therefore, the total paint mixture is the sum of blue paint and red paint.

$\fbox{\begin \\\begin{aligned} \text{Total paint}= 1.24+3.72\\=4.96 \text{ liters}\\\end{aligned}\\\end{minispace}}$

Now, as Mrs. Cleaver divides the paint mixture equally in 5 containers so the amount of paint in one container is calculated as,

$\boxed{\begin{aligned}\text{Amount of paint in one container}&= \dfrac{4.96}{5}\\ &=0.992 \text{ liters} \end {aligned}}$

Since amount of blue paint mixed is three times the red paint so the fraction of blue paint to the total paint is $\dfrac{3}{4}$ .

Now, as it is known that the fraction of blue paint to the total paint is $\dfrac{3}{4}$ and the amount of paint in a container is $0.992 \text{ liters}$ then the blue paint in one container is calculated as,

$\boxed{\begin{aligned}\text{Blue paint in one container} =\dfrac{3}{4} \times 0.992\\=0.248 \text{ liters}\end{aligned}}$

Thus, the amount of blue paint in each container is $\fbox{\begin\\\ 0.744 liters \end{minispace}}$ .

lora16 [44]

Answer:

2520ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculation for what is the scale of the model?

Let x will be the span length

Hence,

x= 4200 feet long/20 inches long

x=210

Thus:

1 inch = 210 ft

1 ft = 2520

=2520ft

Therefore the scale of the model will be 2520ft
