Answer:

ratio = 4/3 = 1.3333

Step-by-step explanation:

If Jacob makes 20 baskets for every 35 times he shoots the ball, that means he misses 35 - 20 = 15 shoots for every 35 shoots.

So, to calculate the ratio of baskets he makes to baskets he misses, we just need to divide these values:

baskets he makes = 20 for every 35

baskets he misses = 15 for every 35

ratio = 20 / 15 = 4 / 3 = 1.3333

GalinKa [24]

Answer:

\theta_1 \ n\ \theta_2 = 120, 240

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete, as the angles of rotation are not stated.

However, I will list the angles less than 360 degrees that will carry the hexagon and the nonagon onto itself

We have:

Nonagon = 9\ sides

Hexagon = 6\ sides

Divide 360 degrees by the number of sides in each angle, then find the multiples.

<u>Nonagon</u>

\theta = \frac{360}{9} =40

List the multiples of 40

\theta_1 = 40, 80, 120, 160, 200, 240, 280, 320

<u>Hexagon</u>

\theta = \frac{360}{6} =60

List the multiples of 60

\theta_2 = 60, 120, 180, 240, 300

List out the common angles

\theta_1 = 40, 80, 120, 160, 200, 240, 280, 320

\theta_2 = 60, 120, 180, 240, 300

\theta_1 \ n\ \theta_2 = 120, 240

This means that, only a rotation of 120, 240 will lift both shapes onto themselves, when applied to both shapes.

The other angles will only work on one of the shapes, but not both at the same time.

A gardener has 46ft of fencing to be used to enclose a rectangular garden that has a border 2 feet wide surrounding it. If the l
LekaFEV [45]
Let the width be x, then the length is 2x
2(x + 4 + 2x + 4) = 46
(3x + 8) = 46/2 = 23
3x = 23 - 8 = 15
x = 15/3 = 5 ft

Therefore, width is 5 feet and length is 2(5) = 10 feet

Find all solutions in the integers of the equation ||x−3|−5| = 10, where the bars indicate absolute value.
Helga [31]

Answer:

x = 18 or x = -12.

Step-by-step explanation:

||x-3|-5| = 10 only if |x-3|-5 = 10 or |x-3|-5 = -10, i.e., if |x-3|=15 or |x-3|=-5; but |x-3| cannot be equal to -5, because |x-3| should be a non-negative value. Therefore, the first equation is true only if |x-3|=15. |x-3| = 15 only if x-3 = 15 or x-3 = -15, i.e., x = 18 or x = -12.  We can verify this in the following way: ||18-3|-5|=||15|-5|=|10|=10 and ||-12-3|-5|=||-15|-5|=|15-5|=|10|=10. This verify that our solution is correct.

The shape on the left is translated to the shape on the right.
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Translation means moving so when saying Translate to the right your really moving it to the right. The questions says The shape on left is the original and the right is translated which means the left is the pre-image while right is the image. A is the only answer that doesn’t say the right is the pre image. Also, “ ‘ “ is used to distinguish the pre image coordinates vs the image coords so it easier.
