5 x 10^-2, 50%, 1/3, 0.6
Second option
Answer: The length of the rectangle is 37.5 inches and the width is 12.5 inches
Step-by-step explanation: The dimensions of the rectangle is not given but we have clues given. The length is given as three times it’s width which means if the width is W, then the length would be given as 3W (three times the width). Also the perimeter is given as 100 inches and the formula for the perimeter is;
Perimeter = 2(L + W)
We can now insert the known values as follows;
100 = 2(3W + W)
100 = 2(4W)
100 = 8W
Divide both sides of the equation by 8
12.5 = W
Having calculated the width as 12.5 inches, the length now becomes
L = 3W
L = 3 x 12.5
L = 37.5
Hence the length is 37.5 inches and the width is 12.5 inches
Answer:
Yes; the corresponding sides are proportional
Step-by-step explanation:
If two figures are similar, the lengths of their sides are proportional. This means if we set up a proportion with the sides we are given and cross-multiply, we get a true statement at the end of it.
Using the similarity statement ABCD~EFGH, we will compare AB to EF and BC to FG:
5/3 = 25/15
Cross multiply:
5(15) = 3(25)
75 = 75
We got a true statement, so the sides are proportional.
We can write the function in terms of y rather than h(x)
so that:
y = 3 (5)^x
A. The rate of change is simply calculated as:
r = (y2 – y1) / (x2 – x1) where r stands for rate
Section A:
rA = [3 (5)^1 – 3 (5)^0] / (1 – 0)
rA = 12
Section B:
rB = [3 (5)^3 – 3 (5)^2] / (3 – 2)
rB = 300
B. We take the ratio of rB / rA:
rB/rA = 300 / 12
rB/rA = 25
So we see that the rate of change of section B is 25
times greater than A
