The answer is 0.375 because 1/8=0.125 and 1/4=0.25 so you add the both of them and you get 0.375

The estimated sum to this question is around 3/8 because you have to times the 1/4 by two in your head and then you ad those two together.

Given: rectangle ABCD is similar to rectangle ZBXY. If ZY = 5, XC = 3, DC = 4, then XY =

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

The length of XY is either 10 or 2.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information: ZY = 5, XC = 3 and DC = 4.

Case 1: Rectangle ABCD is smaller than ZBXY.

The opposite sides of the rectangle are same.

$ZY=BC+XC$

$5=BC+3$

$2=BC$

The length of ABCD is 4 and width of ABCD is 2. The width of ZBXY is 5. The corresponding sides of the similar rectangles are is in the same proportion.

$\frac{4}{XY}=\frac{2}{5}$

$\frac{4\times 5}{2}=XY$

$10=XY$

Therefore the value of XY is 10.

Case 2: Rectangle ABCD is larger than ZBXY.

$ZY=BC-XC$

$5=BC-3$

$8=BC$

The length of ABCD is 4 and width of ABCD is 8. The width of ZBXY is 5. The corresponding sides of the similar rectangles are is in the same proportion.

$\frac{4}{XY}=\frac{8}{5}$

$\frac{4\times 5}{8}=XY$

$2.5=XY$

Therefore the value of XY is 2.5.

F(x) = 3x+1
G(x) = X^2 - 6
F(G(x)) = F(X^2 - 6) = 3(X^2 - 6) + 1 = 3X^2 - 18 + 1 = 3X^2 -17
F(G(x)) = 3X^2 - 17

. A retailer sold 10 packs of pens in 3 days. There were 48 pens in each pack. He sold twice as many pens on Sunday than on Mond

Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

The number of pens sold on Monday is 107 pens

Step-by-step explanation:

total pack of pen sold by the retailer in 3 days = 10 packs

total number of pens in the 10 packs = 48 x 10 = 480 pens

let the number of pens sold on Monday = x

let the number of pens sold on Sunday = y

let the number of pens sold on Tuesday = z

He sold twice as many pens on Sunday than on Monday

y = 2x ------equation (1)

He sold 55 pens fewer on Tuesday than on Sunday

y = z + 55 ------equation (2)

total number of pens sold in the three days

y + z + x = 480 ------equation (3)

from equation (1) make x the subject of the formula

x = y/2

from equation (2) make z the subject of the formula

z = y - 55

substitute the value of x, and z into equation (3)

y + y/2 + y - 55 = 480

2y + y/2 = 480 + 55

5y/2 = 535

5y = 535 x 2

5y = 1070

y = 1070 / 5

y = 214

The number of pens sold on Monday is:

x = y / 2

x = 214 / 2

x = 107 pens

Thus, the number of pens sold on Monday is 107 pens
