Answer:
2.7 in²
Step-by-step explanation:
similar triangles have the same angles, and all side lengths (or other distances) of one triangle have the same scaling factor to the side lengths of the other triangle.
so, we know the relation between the 2 baselines is 2/3, as this is the factor to turn the baseline of the large triangle into the baseline of the smaller triangle.
in other words
EF = BC × 2/3
2 = 3 × 2/3
correct
how do we calculate the area of a triangle ?
Area = baseline × height / 2
from BAC we know
Area = 6
baseline = 3
height = ?
6 = 3 × height / 2
12 = 3 × height
height = 4
aha !
now, EDF has a height too that we need to calculate is Area. and this height has the same scaling factor compared to the larger triangle as the side lengths : 2/3
so, for EDF we know
Area = ?
baseline = 2
height = 4 × 2/3 = 8/3
therefore, the area is
Area = (2 × 8/3) / 2 = (16/3) / 2 = 8/3 = 2.66666... ≈ 2.7
the shirt answer would be :
we know from the 2 baselines that the scaling factor for each distance is 2/3.
for the area we need to multiply 2 distances, so that means we have to multiply both by 2/3. and so on the formula for the area we have to use 2/3 × 2/3.
2/3 × 2/3 = 4/9
=>
Area small = Area large × 4/9 = 6 × 4/9 = 24/9 = 8/3 ≈ 2.7
Answer:
$431
Step-by-step explanation:
using the formula P(1+r/100)^n,
we can substitute the P with $300,
substitute the r with 7.5%,
and substitute the n with 5.
Answer:
∠O = 95°
Step-by-step explanation:
since ∠Q = 85°, arc NOP = 2(85°) = 170°
arc PQN = 360° - arc NOP
arc PQN = 360° - 170° = 190°
∠O = 1/2(arc PQN) = 1/2(190°) = 95°
Answer: x = 3 and y = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
y = - x + 4 ............... equation 1
y = x - 2 ............. equation 2
Solving the linear equation by substitution method , we have :
substitute equation 2 into equation 1 , that is
x - 2 = - x + 4
Add 2 to both sides , we have
x = -x + 4 + 2
Add x to both sides , we have
2x = 6
divide through by 2
x = 3
Substitute x = 3 into equation 2 to find the value of y , we have
y = x - 2
y = 3 - 2
y = 1
Therefore : x = 3 and y = 1
Answer:
<em>B. The graph of g is the graph of f shifted 2 units down</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Graph of Functions</u>
We have two functions:
f(x)=3^x
g(x)=3^x-2
Since g(x)=f(x)-2 it will be represented as an identical graph as that for f(x), but vertically displaced 2 units down. Let's check it by plugging some points
f(0)=3^0=1
g(0)=3^0-2=-1
f(1)=3^1=3
g(1)=3^1-2=1
f(3)=3^3=27
g(3)=3^3-2=25
We can notice the values of g(x) are always 2 units below f(x), thus the correct answer is
B. The graph of g is the graph of f shifted 2 units down
