Answer:
45 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Create a proportion where x is the perimeter of the smaller triangle:
= 
Cross multiply and solve for x:
5x = 225
x = 45
So, the perimeter of the smaller triangle is 45 inches
Answer:
a + b =1
Step-by-step explanation:
Write the given quadratic as x^2 – 1x – 90 = 0. This factors into
(x - 10)(x + 9) = 0, and so the roots/solutions are {-9, 10}.
If we call -9 "a" and 10 "b," then the sum a + b is -9 + 10, or a + b =1.
For this, we have to calculate how much money has to be invested at 2.3% interest compounded continuously to achieve $41,000 after 17 years
Formula: A= P * ( 1+r)^t
A= $41,000
r=0.023
t= 17
<span>41,000= P * (1+0.023)^17
</span>41,000= P * (1.023)^17
41,000= P * 1.4719
P= 41,000 : 1.4719
P= $27,731.59
Therefore, the answer is C. $27,731.59
I checked by doing the opposite, and I got $41,000.01, which is the closest to the question<span>

<h2>9.</h2><h3>Given</h3>
<h3>Find</h3>
- linear approximation to the volume when the radius increases 0.4 cm
<h3>Solution</h3>
The equation for volume of a sphere is
... V = (4/3)π·r³
Differentiating gives
... dV = 4π·r²·dr
Filling in the given numbers gives
... change in volume ≈ 4π·(15 cm)²·(0.4 cm)
... = 360π cm³ ≈ 1130.97 cm³ . . . . . . volume of layer 4mm thick
<h2>11.</h2><h3>Given</h3>
- an x by x by 2x cuboid with surface area 129.6 cm²
- rate of change of x is 0.01 cm/s
<h3>Find</h3>
<h3>Solution</h3>
The area is that of two cubes of dimension x joined together. The area of each such cube is 6x², but the two joined faces don't count in the external surface area. Thus the area of the cuboid is 10x².
The volume of the cuboid is that of two cubes joined, so is 2x³. Then the rate of change of volume is
... dV/dt = (d/dt)(2x³) = 6x²·dx/dt
We know x² = A/10, where A is the area of the cuboid, so the rate of change of volume is ...
... dV/dt = (6/10)A·dx/dt = 0.6·(129.6 cm²)(0.01 cm/s)
... dV/dt = 0.7776 cm³/s
