39. The ratio of new houses to antique houses in a village is 4:5. If there are

jeyben [28]

Step-by-step explanation:

☄ $\underline{ \underline{ \text{Question }}}:$ The ratio of new houses to antique houses in a village is 4 : 5 . If there are 12 new houses , how many antique houses are there ?

☄ $\underline{ \underline{ \text{Solution}}} :$

✏ Let , the number of antique houses in a village be ' x ' .

Then , According to the question :

$\sf{ \frac{Number \: of \: new \: houses}{Number \: of \: antique \: houses} \: = \: \frac{4}{5}}$

⤑ $\sf{ \frac{12}{x} = \frac{4}{5}}$

Apply cross product property

⤑ $\sf{4 \times x = 12 \times 5}$

⤑ $\sf{4x = 60}$

⤑ $\sf{ \frac{4x}{4} = \frac{60}{4}}$

⤑ $\sf{x = 15}$

So, The number of antique houses in a village is 15.

$\red{ \boxed{ \boxed{ \tt{Our \: final \: answer : \boxed{ \bold{15}}}}}}$

Hope I helped ! ♡

Have a wonderful day / night ツ

A spinner is broken into section labeled 1 to 38. What is the probability that.On your next spin, that you will spin a 1?

VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

1/38

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Probability = required outcome / Total possible outcomes

Total possible outcomes = total Numbe rod sections = 38

Required outcome = number of 1's on the entire section = 1

Hence, the probability of spinning a one equals :

P(spinning a 1) = 1 / 38

16. Solve for "x".<br> a. 6<br> b. 100<br> c. 36

erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

A. 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the Pythagorean theorem which states that: <u>Hypotenus² = Opposite² + Adjacent²</u>

Where: hypotenus = 10, opposite = x, adjacent = 8

So:

${10}^{2} = {x}^{2} + {8}^{2}$

Solving for x

$100 = {x}^{2} + 64$

Collect like terms to make x the subject of formula

$100 - 64 = {x}^{2} →36 = {x}^{2}$

$36 = {x}^{2} ⟹ {x}^{2} = 36$

square root both sides of the equation to find the value of x

$\sqrt{ {x}^{2} } = \sqrt{36} →x = 6$

Therefore: Option A is correct

Convert 1 cal/(m^2 * sec * °C) into BTU/(ft^2 * hr * °F)

Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

$1\ \frac{\text{cal}}{m^2\times sec\times ^\circ C}=0.03926\frac{\text{BTU}}{ft^2\times hr\times ^\circ F}$

Step-by-step explanation:

To find : Convert $1\ \frac{\text{cal}}{m^2\times sec\times ^\circ C}$ into $\frac{\text{BTU}}{ft^2\times hr\times ^\circ F}$

Solution :

We convert units one by one,

$1\text{ m}^2=10.7639\text{ ft}^2$

$1\text{ sec}=\frac{1}{3600}\text{ hour}$

$1\text{ cal}=0.003968\text{ BTU}$

Converting temperature unit,

$^\circ C\times \frac{9}{5}+32=^\circ F$

$1^\circ C\times \frac{9}{5}+32=33.8^\circ F$

So, $1^\circ C=33.8^\circ F$

Substitute all the values in the unit conversion,

$1\ \frac{\text{cal}}{m^2\times sec\times ^\circ C}=\frac{0.003968}{10.7639\times \frac{1}{3600}\times 33.8}\frac{\text{BTU}}{ft^2\times hr\times ^\circ F}$

$1\ \frac{\text{cal}}{m^2\times sec\times ^\circ C}=\frac{0.003968}{0.101061}\frac{\text{BTU}}{ft^2\times hr\times ^\circ F}$

$1\ \frac{\text{cal}}{m^2\times sec\times ^\circ C}=0.03926\frac{\text{BTU}}{ft^2\times hr\times ^\circ F}$

Therefore, The conversion of unit is $1\ \frac{\text{cal}}{m^2\times sec\times ^\circ C}=0.03926\frac{\text{BTU}}{ft^2\times hr\times ^\circ F}$
