Suppose the population of trout in a certain stretch of a river is 4000. In about how many years will the population of trout be

700 if the decay rate is 35%? Use the equation 700 = (4000)(0.65)x and round the value of x to the nearest year.

700=(4000)(0.65)x
         4000 x 0.65
700=(2600)x
700=2600x
0.27=x
(rounded = 1 year)

In ∆PQR, p=13 inches, q=18 inches and r= 12 inches. Find the area of ∆PQR to the nearest square inch.
sveta [45]

Given data:

The first side of the triangle is p=13 inches.

The second side of the triangle is q=18 inches.

The third side of the triangle is r= 12 inches.

The semi-perimeter is,

\begin{gathered} s=\frac{p+q+r}{2} \\ =\frac{13\text{ in+18 in+12 in}}{2} \\ =21.5\text{ in} \end{gathered}

The expression for the area of the triangle is,

\begin{gathered} A=\sqrt[]{s(s-p)(s-q)(s-r)_{}} \\ =\sqrt[]{21.5\text{ in(21.5 in-13 in)(21.5 in-18 in)(21.5 in-12 in)}} \\ =\sqrt[]{(21.5\text{ in)(8.5 in)(3.5 in)(9.5 in)}} \\ =77.95in^2 \end{gathered}

Thus, the area of the given triangle is 77.95 sq-inches.

Line AB is tangent to circle O at A. The diagram is not drawn to scale.
Arlecino [84]
AO = 21
BC = 14
OC = radius of the circle = AO = 21
∴ OB = OC + CB = 21 + 14 = 35
<span>Line AB is tangent to circle O at A</span>
∴ AB is perpendicular to AO
∴ Δ OAB is a right triangle at A
Applying Pythagorean theorem
∴  OB² = AO² + AB²
∴ AB² = OB² - AO² = 35² - 21² = 1225 - 441 = 784
∴ AB = √784 = 28

Find the value of x and the value of y.
fomenos

Answer:

C.

Step-by-step explanation:

x is bisecting the baseline (cutting it in 2 halves of 6).

the third angle in the main overall triangle is 60 degrees.

remember, all angles in a triangle always add up to 180 degrees.

so, 180 - 60 - 60 = 60.

that means that all 3 angles are of equal size (60). and that means that all 3 sides must have the same length.

=> y = 12

and now using Pythagoras to calculate the height (x) of the triangle :

y² = x² + 6² (remember, this side is only half the baseline)

12² = x² + 6²

144 = x² + 36

x² = 108

x = sqrt(108) = sqrt(36×3) = 6×sqrt(3)

How do i find scale factor?
Kazeer [188]
To find scale factor you first must find two corresponding sides. then divide one by the other. note that if you divide the smaller side by the larger you will get a number less that one and if you divide the larger side by the smaller side you will get a number greater than one.
