Answer:

a - Original length = 18; b - Original length = 12; c - Copy length = 15, ratio = 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

For part a, we know the ratio is 2/3. We also know the copy length is 27.

To change the denominator of the ratio to 27, we would multiply by 9; multiplying the top by 9, we have 2(9) = 18.

For part b, we know the ratio is 2/3. We also know the copy length is 18.

To change the denominator of the ratio to 18, we would multiply by 6; multiplying the top by 6, we have 2(6) = 12.

For part c, we only have one option left for the copy length; it must be 15.

This makes the ratio 10/15, which simplifies to 2/3.

A- Original length = 18
b- Original length = 12
c- Copy length = 15 ; Original Length/Copy Length = 2/3

Which number line correctly shows 1. 5 + 2. 5? A number line going from 0 to 6. 5 in increments of 0. 5. An arrow goes from 0 to

Usimov [2.4K]

So we want to see which number line shows the sum 1.5 + 2.5. We will see that the correct option is "An arrow goes from 0 to 1. 5 and from 1. 5 to 4"

So the number line usually starts at 0 and goes to the first number, 1.5 in this case.

Then, it moves accordingly to the second number, 2.5 (so it will move 2.5 units to the right)

So the number line should start at 0 and move to the right until it meets 1.5 + 2.5 = 4.

From the options, the only that is correct is:

"An arrow goes from 0 to 1. 5 and from 1. 5 to 4"

Solve |p + 2| = 10Solve |p + 2| = 10 {-12} {-8, 8} {-12, 8}

valentinak56 [21]

By definition, we have

$|p+2| = \begin{cases} p+2 &\text{ if } p+2 \geq 0 \\-p-2 &\text{ if } p+2 < 0 \end{cases}$

So, we have to solve two different equations, depending of the possible range for the variable. We have to remember about these ranges when we decide to accept or discard the solutions:

Suppose that $p+2\geq 0 \iff p \geq -2$

In this case, the absolute value doesn't do anything: the equation is

$p+2 = 10 \iff p = 10-2 = 8$

We are supposing $p \geq -2$ , so we can accept this solution.

Now, suppose that $p+2 < 0 \iff p < -2$ . Now the sign of the expression is flipped by the absolute value, and the equation becomes

$-p-2 = 10 \iff -p = 12 \iff p = -12$

Again, the solution is coherent with the assumption, so we can accept this value as well.

What is the perimeter of rhombus LMNO?

kicyunya [14]

If you see that 3x-3 and set it equal to x+7 then you will get this,

3x-3=x+7

Now solve for X. You will get 5.

Then you plug five in and get 12 For both sides and then multiply 12 by 4 and get 48.

You answer is 48.

Hope this helps you.

If p(x) = 3x – 2and n (x) = 2x – 5, what is the value of (n/p) (1)?

Liula [17]

Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

We want (n/p)(1). We can obtain this by finding n(1) and p(1) and then dividing as indicated:

p(1) = 3(1) - 2 = 1

n(1) = 2(1) - 5 = -3

Then (n/p) (1) = -3/1, or just -3
