Answer:

b = 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi!!!

You want the value of B. To get that, we have to divide both sides by 16:

$\frac{16}{16}b =\frac{12}{16}$

$\frac{12}{16} = \frac{3}{4}$

Thus the answer to your question is $$\boxed{b = \frac{3}{4} }$ .

Check:

3/4 * 16 = 3 * 4 = 12.

12 = 12

So we are correct!!!

Answer: x = 2.65, y = 3.81

Step-by-step explanation:

ABC similar to PQR

1) Find the ratio of corresponding sides

2) Use that ratio to find values for x & y

1) Side AB = 2.76cm & Side PR = y cm

Side BC = x cm & Side RQ = 3.66 cm

Side CA = 3 cm & Side QP = 4.14 cm (both lengths given)

Can match 3 to 4.14 & ratio of sides in ABC to PQR= 3 /4.14

Length of sides ABC = 3/4.14 times the length of sides PQR

2) x = (3 / 4.14) * 3.66 = 2.65

Now solve for y, ABC to PQR: 2.76 = (3 / 4.14) (y )

equality property (both sides) & inverse operation to isolate y : . 2.76 ÷ (3 / 4.14) = (3 / 4.14 ) ÷ (3 / 4.14) (y)

2.76 * (4.14 / 3) = 3 / 4.14 * (4.14 / 3) (y)

(2.76 * 1.38 ) = 3.81 = y

What are all the angle measures for right triangle ABC?

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

$\alpha = 60°,\:\beta = 30°, \: 90°$

Step-by-step explanation:

$Arccos( \frac{ \sqrt{3} }{2} ) = \beta \\ Arccos( \cos \: 30 \degree ) = \beta \\30 \degree = \beta \\ \therefore \: \alpha = 60 \degree \\ remaining \: angle = 90 \degree \\$

Find the greatest common factor and the least common multiple of 16 and 20. The prime factorizations of each number are given.

kykrilka [37]

Answer:

GCF 4, LCM 80

Step-by-step explanation:

Since both 16 and 20 have two 2s as factor, their greatest common factor is 4.

The LCM is found by multiplying all of the remaining factors by the LCM:

16 still has (2 x 2), 20 still has (5), times the GCF (4) so 2 x 2 x 5 x 4 = 80.

What is the y-intercept of y=4x?

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

y intercept= 0

Step-by-step explanation:

in the formula y=mx+b, m is the slope and b is the y intercept. here we are not given "b" so the y intercept it 0

what's the difference between (-4)^-3 and -4^-3. basically what's the difference when there's parenthesis for the base number?

NNADVOKAT [17]

(-4)^-3 = $\frac{1}{-64} or -0.015625$
-4^-3 = $\frac{1}{-64} or -0.015625$

Basically in this situation there is no difference whether parenthesis are used or not.
