A short necklace has 32 gold beads and 8 black beads.

Mathematics

joja [24]2 years ago

Answer:

12 black beads

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the ration of gold beads to black beads on the short necklace:

\frac{gold}{black}=\frac{32}{8}=\frac{4}{1}

Since the ratio of 4:1 has 5 total parts, you can take the total amount of beads in the long necklace and divide by 5:

60 ÷ 5 = 12

12 beads represents 1 part of the ratio, so that would be the number of black beads.  To check, multiply 12 by 4:  12 x 4 = 48, and set up a ratio:

48: 12 = 4: 1

Marris decides to bake his parents a cookie in the shape of a regular dodecagon (12‑gon) for their 12-day anniversary.
allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

The answer to each question is:

  • A.) 403.2 cm^{2}
  • B.) 100. 8 cm^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

A.) To obtain the area of the dodecagon, you can use the next formula:

  • Area of a dodecagon = 6 * apothem * edge

In the exercise, we have the edge (6 cm), but, to find the apothem of a dodecagon, that is the distance between the center of the polygon, and the middle point of each side, you can use the next formula:

  • Apothem = Edge * \frac{2+\sqrt{3}}{2}

If we replace the value of the edge, we obtain:

  • Apothem = 6 cm * \frac{2+\sqrt{3}}{2}
  • Apothem = 11.2 cm (approximately).

With this data, we can find the area:

  • Area of a dodecagon = 6 * apothem * edge
  • Area of a dodecagon = 6 * 11.2 cm * 6 cm
  • Area of a dodecagon = 403.2 cm^{2}

Then,<u> the area of the dodecagon is 403.2 </u>cm^{2}<u> approximately</u>.

B.) As the area obtained is for 12 pieces, when the parents ate 9 pieces, just left 3 pieces, with these values you can make a rule of three.

If:

  • 12 pieces = 403.2 cm^{2}
  • 3 pieces = X

Then:

  • X = (3 * 403.2 cm^{2}) / 12
  • X = 1209.6 cm^{2} / 12
  • X = 100. 8 cm^{2}

In this form, <u>when the cookie has 3 pieces, its area is 100. 8 </u>cm^{2}<u> approximately</u>.

A particle moves so that r(t) = ati + b sin atj. Show that the magnitude of the acceleration of the particle is proportional to
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Position of particle is r(t)=at\hat{i}+b\sin (at)\hat{j}

i.e. distance from x axis is b\sin (at)---1

Distance from y axis at

velocity is given by v=\frac{\mathrm{d} r}{\mathrm{d} t}

v=a\hat{i}+ba\cos (at)\hat{j}

Similarly acceleration is given by

a=\frac{\mathrm{d} v}{\mathrm{d} t}

a=0\hat{i}-a^2b\sin (at)\hat{j}

Magnitude of acceleration is =\sqrt{(-a^2b\sin (at))^2}

=a^2b\sin (at)----2

From 1 and 2 we can see that

Magnitude of acceleration is proportional to distance from x axis

a\propto distance\ from\ x-axis

This is confusion please help
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

c = 5√5

Step-by-step explanation:

When we have a right triangle, there is a property about its measurements that is <em>always</em> true, and its called the "Pythagorean Theorem"

First, let's understand the basic terms we use to describe the sides of a triangle:

we can call one leg "a", the other leg "b" and the slanted side "c"

("c" is also called the hypotenuse--and it's always opposite the 90-degree angle)

the pythagorean theorem:

a² + b² = c²

here, our "a" is 5, our "b" is 10 {and we don't know what c is}

let's try plugging these values into our formula:

a² + b² = c²

5² + 10² = c²

25 + 100 = c²      

125 = c²

now, we know what c² is--but we want to know c,

so we must take the square root of both sides

√125 = √c²

√125 = c

now, while √125 <em>is </em>our answer, we can simplify further!

this is because 125 can be made up of 5 · 25

so, \sqrt{125} = \sqrt{5*25}

and

\sqrt{5*25}=\sqrt{5}*\sqrt{25}

we can take out the square root of 25 (5):

=\sqrt{5}*5

we write this as such: 5\sqrt{5}

so, in simplest radical form, c = 5√5

(√125)

hope this helps!! have a lovely day :)
