The answer is:  [A]:  " 120 ft² " .
_______________________________________________________
Explanation:
_______________________________________________________
Set up a ratio as a fraction:
_______________________________________________________

       8/3 = 320/x ;
_______________________________________________________
Cross-multiply:
_____________________________________________________

8x = 3 * 320  ;

8x = 960 ;

Divide each side of the equation by "8" ;
 to isolate "x" on one side of the equation ; and to solve for "x" ;
______________________________________________________
   8x / 8  =  960 / 8 ;

to get:  x = 120 .

The answer is:  [A]:  " 120 ft² " .

Help me on number problem 4 please
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

y = -1/4x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Because you are finding the perpendicular slope, you need to find the negative reciprocal of the original line, which would be -1/4. You then use point slope form to find the y-intercept with the slope and given point:

y - 5 = -1/4(x + 8). That equals to y = -1/4x + 3.

So the equation of this line is y = -1/4x + 3.

In the diagram below of triangle UVW, X is a midpoint of UV and Y is a midpoint
NeTakaya

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: X is midpoint of UV and Y is midpoint of VW.

\therefore XY || UW

(By mid-point theorem)

\therefore \angle XYV \cong \angle UWY\\.. (corresponding\: \angle 's) \\\therefore m\angle XYV = m\angle UWY\\\therefore 98 - 6x = 63- x\\\therefore 98 - 63= 6x- x\\\therefore 35= 5x\\\\\therefore x = \frac{35}{5}\\\\\huge \orange {\boxed {\therefore x = 7}} \\\\m\angle UWY = (63 - x) °\\\\\therefore  m\angle UWY = (63 - 7) °\\\\\huge \purple {\boxed {\therefore  m\angle UWY = 56 °}}

Kamila [148]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Problem One

Perimeter is in meters not square meters. The equation is

2*(6.8+x) + 2*12.5= 47                Remove the brackets. Combine like terms  

13.6 + 2x + 25 = 47

38.6 + 2x = 47                            Subtract 38.5 from both sides

2x = 47 - 38.6  

2x = 8.4                                      Divide by 2

x = 4.2

Answer D

Problem 2

This problem is asking that you calculate the perimeter of a swimming pool.

The two semicircles on the ends make a whole circle.

The diameter of the semicircles is obtained from the difference of the two given lengths.

The rectangle has a length of 12. The length of the rectangle and the 2 semicircles is 16. The difference is 4. You could divide this by 2 to get the radius. I would just leave it as the diameter.

So the perimeter is pi*d + 2 * 12 [there are 2 lengths]

Perimeter = 4*pi + 24

Perimeter = 12.56 + 24

Perimeter = 36.56

Answer A

Problem 3

This is the circle inside the square.

The radius of the circle = 9

The diameter of the circle and the length of square's side = 2*9 = 18

The area of the square = s^2  where s = 18

The area of the square = 18^2 = 324

The area of the circle = pi * 9^2 = 3.24 * 81 = 251.34

The area of the Shaded area = 324 - 251.34 = 69.66

Answer C

Problem 4

b1 = 5

b2 = 11.5

h = 4.5

Formula

Area = (b1 + b2 ) * 4.5/2

Area =  (5 + 11.5) * 4.5 /2

Area = 16.5 * 4.5 / 2

Area = 74.25/2

Area = 37.125

Graph this line using the slope and y-intercept: y = 1/8x + 4<br> (1/8 is a fraction)
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

Two points, (0,4) & (8,5)

Step-by-step explanation:

In this equation, we can easily find the first point by looking at the +4 in this equation. This should automatically signal to you that the point is (0,4)

Now, we have to look at the 1/8x in the equation.

This 1/8 means that the slope is 1/8!

Now we use the slope and to rise/run to find our next point

We go up 1 from 4 (this is the rise) to get to 5 on the y-axis

Next, we go over 8 horizontally to get to 8 for your x-axis point.

So therefore, our next point is, (8,5)

You can use this rise/run system infinitely and is very useful
