1. ABCD is a rectangle. BD is a straight line that cuts the rectangle into equal halves. The ratio of the area of P to the area

of Q is 2 : 5, and the ratio of the area R to the area of S is 4 : 3. The area of S is 9 square centimeters.

S is 3 parts of R, or 9.  9 is 3/4 of 12, so R is 12. 12 plus 9 is 21, which is half of the full area of the rectangle. The area of the rectangle is 42 square centimeters. Now, we need to find what R is to the whole rectangle. We know that R is 12 square centimeters, and that the rectangle is 42 square centimeters. That ratio is 12 to 42. If it is simplified, that would be 6 to 21. If it is simplified further, you find that it is 2 to 7. Hope this wasn't too confusing, and I hope that I helped :)

If the simple interest on ​$3,000 for 8 years is ​$1,680​, then what is the interest​ rate?
madam [21]

We need to use the formula for simple interest which is
I= prt
Where I is the amount of money you earned or pay in interest
p is the principal, the amount you deposited or borrowed
r is the interest rate expressed as a decimal
t is time in terms of years

In this problem, I= 1,680
p= 3000
t= 8
'. r is what we are looking for.

Substituting the numbers into the simple interest formula, we get
I=. p r t
1,680=(3000)(r)(8). Multiplying
1,680= 24,000r Divide both sides by 24,000
0.07= r
So, the percentage is (0.07)(100)= 7%...

A rectangular field is 50 yards wide and 100 yards long. Patrick walks diagonally across the field. How far does he walk
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

Patrick walk approximately <u>112 yards</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A rectangular field is 50 yards wide and 100 yards long.

Patrick walks diagonally across the field.

Now, to find the distance he walk.

Length of the field = 100 yards.

Width of the field = 50 yards.

Now, to get the diagonal distance we put formula:

Diagonal = \sqrt{length^2+width^2}

Diagonal = \sqrt{100^2+50^2}

Diagonal = \sqrt{10000+2500}

Diagonal = \sqrt{12500}

Diagonal = 111.80

Therefore, Patrick walk approximately 112 yards.

The volume of a solid right pyramid with a square base is V units3 and the length of the base edge is y units.
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

Height of the pyramid = 3v/y² units

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

- The volume of a solid right pyramid with a square base = v units³

- The length of the base edge = y units

The formula for volume of a pyramid is given as;

V = ⅓ x base area x height.

Since the base is square, we will use the formula for square area which is A = side × side.

Thus, v = ⅓ × (y × y) × height

Making height the subject, we have;

Height = 3v/y²

height of the pyramid would be given by the expression 3v/y² units
