Suppose you have developed a scale that indicates the brightness of sunlight. Each category in the table is 4 times brighter tha

raketka [301]

According to the developed scale, a radiant day is <u>16 times</u> brighter than a dim day.

We assume the brightness of a dim day to be x.

According to the developed scale, the brightness of an illuminated day will be 4 times that of a dim day.

Thus, the brightness of an illuminated day = 4*the brightness of a dim day = 4x.

According to the developed scale, the brightness of a radiant day will be 4 times that of an illuminated day.

Thus, the brightness of a radiant day = 4*the brightness of an illuminated day = 4*4x = 16x.

Now, the ratio of the brightness of a radiant day to the brightness of a dim day = 16x:x = 16x/x = 16:1.

Thus, according to the developed scale, a radiant day is <u>16 times</u> brighter than a dim day.

The question provided is incomplete. The complete question is:

"Suppose you have developed a scale that indicates the brightness of sunlight. Each category in the table is 4 times brighter than the next lower category. For example, a day that is dazzling is 4 times brighter than a day that is radiant. How many times brighter is a radiant day than a dim day?

Dim=2

Illuminated=3

Radiant=4

Dazzling=5"

What is BE ?<br> Please explain it in full dont just give me an answer

posledela

There are two methods to solve this problem. One of them is the typical method and the other one is the short-cut. I will explain the shortcut

Short-cut:
This method is quick and easy, and works with ALL triangles, which is why I suggest you use this. You make proportions. Since the triangles are similar, we can use CPCTC. Thereafter,
$\frac{AD}{CE}= \frac{DB}{EB}$

Now, you just need to identify the terms, substitute, and solve for the unknown, which would be k.

$\frac{12}{3} = \frac{k+5}{k-7} \\ 12(k-7)=3(k+5) \\ 12k-84=3k+15 \\ 9k=84+15 \\ 9k=99 \\ k=11$ [/tex]

So we found k, but it is asking for BE. Therefore, plug in the value of k, which is 11, into the expression for BE, which is k-7.

BE=K-7
k=11
BE=11-7
BE=4

Your answer is 4.

Find the slope of the line through each pair of points.<br><br> (19, −2), (−11, 10)

Stels [109]

Answer:

slope = $-\frac{2}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Calculate the slope using slope formula, $\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$ . Use the two points given, substitute their x and y values into the formula, and solve.

$\frac{(10)-(-2)}{(-11)-(19)} \\= \frac{10+2}{-11-19} \\= \frac{12}{-30}\\= -\frac{2}{5}$

Thus, the slope is $-\frac{2}{5}$ .
