Dividing 21 by 7 will give to the proportion of 1:3 which is your scale for the bag with the 7inch base

Answer:

Scale factor = \frac{1}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

In the figure attached, there are two bags. Larger one with the base of 21 in wide and another bag with a base of 7 in wide.

Since both the bags are similar in their shape.

Scale factor by which the smaller bag can be formed will be = \frac{\text{Base length of the smallerer bag}}{\text{Base length of the larger bag}}

= \frac{7}{21}

= \frac{1}{3}

Therefore, by multiplying every side of the larger bag with the scale factor \frac{1}{3} we can get the dimensions of the smaller one.

What are the discontinuities of the function y= 1500/x
Ratling [72]
The discontinuity occurs at x = 0, since that is the only "problem" place in the graph that makes the function undefined. A vertical asymptote exists there. It is nonremoveable.

Plz answer and im giving a lot of points ; ; oh and its two questions in one
Natali [406]
Please don't ask 2 questions in 1 question



remember that percent is parts out of 100 so x%=x/100
basically just remove the percent sign and move the decimal place 2 places to the left  to convert to fraction

the first one
20 dollars
4.75% tax
15% tip
it depends if you want to tip on the total with tax or without tax
it is better to top on the without-tax value since tax comes from you so
find 4.75% of 20 and add that to 15% of 20 then add that to 20 to get the proper value

scenarios
1. 20+(20 times 4.75%)+(20 times 15%)=23.95
2. ([(20 times 104.75%)] times 115%)=24.09
both are bellow $25 so $25 shoudl be enough to cover it




total cost of a spa treatment of 42 with 6% tax and 20% tip
so you could again do two things:
1. apply tax and give tip on the new amount
2. find the tip and add that to the tax of only 42

scenarios:
1.(42 times 106%) times 120%=$50.4
2. (42 times 20%) +(42 times 106%)=$52.92
it depens on what you tip on

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

In statistics and probability theory, the median is the value separating the higher half from the lower half of a data sample, a population or a probability distribution. For a data set, it may be thought of as the "middle" value. And the middle value in this problem is 4.
