The length of the enlarged copy in feet is 2.7 feet.

<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:

  • The painting is 4 inches wide and 2 feet long.
  • convert inches into feet (1 inch=0.083 foot). Therefore, 4 inches=0.3 feet
  • The enlarged copy is 1 foot wide and 'x' feet long.

The width is enlarged from 0.3 to 1 which is increased by 0.7 feet.

∴ The length should also be increased by 0.7 feet = 2+0.7 = 2.7 feet

Can someone explain HOW to simplify this algebraic fraction, as in tell me why and what I need to do for each step : 1-n/n^2-1
Andreyy89

- I’m assuming the expression implies the following:

(1-n)/(n^2 - 1)

The steps goes as follows:

= -(n-1)/(n^2-1) (factored a negative out)
= -(n-1)/[(n+1)(n-1)] (Factored denominator into a difference of squares, but don’t just blindly accept the fact, expand it and you should get the original denominator)

At this point, the (n-1) terms cancel, as you should know: a real number, besides 0, over itself is 1.

= -1/(n+1) , which is the answer

Note: You could also see it as 1/-(n+1) or 1/(-n-1)

Triangle XYZ was dilated by a scale factor of 2 to create triangle ACB and cos ∠X = 2 and 5 tenths over 5 and 59 hundredths.
Maru [420]

Based on the above, the Triangle XYZ and ACB are known to be similar triangles since tanX = tanA = 5 over 2 and 5 tenths;

Hence:

  • AC = 2 x  XY
  • CB = 2  x YZ

<h3>What is the triangle about?</h3>

From the question given; Triangle XYZ is known to have been dilated by a scale factor of 2 to form a type of triangle known as triangle  ACB, So therefore, XYZ and ACB are known to be the same or similar triangles.

Since Angles Y and C are known to both measure 90 degrees, and angles A and X are said to be congruent. Therefore:

tanX = tanA = 5 over 2 and 5 tenths

AC = 2  x  XY

CB = 2  x  YZ

For part B:

cosX=Base/Hypotenuse

cos A=AC/AB

AC =  2.05

AB = 5.59

Therefore, Based on the above, the Triangle XYZ and ACB are known to be similar triangles since tanX = tanA = 5 over 2 and 5 tenths;

Hence:

  • AC = 2 x  XY
  • CB = 2  x YZ
