The areas of two similar triangles are 18 cm^2 and 8 cm^2. One of the sides of the first triangle is 4.5 cm. What is the length
Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

  3 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of areas of similar figures is the square of the ratio of linear dimensions. That means the ratio of linear dimensions is the square root of the area ratio. The ratio of the smaller triangle dimensions to the larger is then ...

  k = √((8 cm^2)/(18 cm^2)) = √(4/9) = 2/3

Then the corresponding side of the smaller triangle is ...

... k · (4.5 cm) = (2/3)·(4.5 cm) = 3 cm

A recipe calls for 1/2 cup of celery,2 1/3 of water and 3/4 cups of carrots. What the combined amont of these three ingredients?
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

43/12

Step-by-step explanation:

First we must find a common denominator for all 3 fractions, 1/2 cup, 2 1/3 cup, and 3/4 cup all share 12 as a common denominator.

However, let's convert 2 1/3 cup into an improper fraction: there are 2 (3/3 cups) here multiply (3/3) and (2/1) you get 6/3. Finally, add the remaining 1/3 to 6/3 and you get 7/3.

Now, to get all these fractions to have the same common denominator.

(1/2) ×(6/6)=(6/12)

(7/3)×(4/4)=(28/12)

(3/4)×(3/3)=(9/12)

Add them all together and your answer is: (43/12)
