Let the number = x
Given: The sum of -5 and a number is -15
Then,
x - 5 = -15
or x = -15 +5 = -10.

Hence, the number is -10

The length of each side of an equilateral triangle is increased by 20%, resulting in triangle ABC. If the length of each side of

kompoz [17]

Answer: Area of ΔABC is 2.25x the area of ΔDEF.

Step-by-step explanation: Because equilateral triangle has 3 equal sides, area is calculated as

$A=\frac{\sqrt{3} }{4} a^{2}$

with a as side of the triangle.

Triangle ABC is 20% bigger than the original, which means its side (a₁) measures, compared to the original:

a₁ = 1.2a

Then, its area is

$A_{1}=\frac{\sqrt{3} }{4}(1.2a)^{2}$

$A_{1}=\frac{\sqrt{3} }{4}1.44a^{2}$

Triangle DEF is 20% smaller than the original, which means its side is:

a₂ = 0.8a

So, area is

$A_{2}=\frac{\sqrt{3} }{4} (0.8a)^{2}$

$A_{2}=\frac{\sqrt{3} }{4} 0.64a^{2}$

Now, comparing areas:

$\frac{A_{1}}{A_{2}}= (\frac{\sqrt{3}.1.44a^{2} }{4})(\frac{4}{\sqrt{3}.0.64a^{2} } )$

$\frac{A_{1}}{A_{2}} =$ 2.25

<u>The area of ΔABC is </u><u>2.25x</u><u> greater than the area of ΔDEF.</u>

Find the ratio of 700m to 2 km

Anika [276]

Answer:

7 : 20

Step-by-step explanation:

2km = 2000m

Then the ratio of 700m to 2 km is :

700 / 2000

Then the ratio in simplest form is :

7 / 20
