A triangle has an area of 36 cm². The base and height are scaled by a factor of 5.

1 answer:

4 0

Triangle Area = .5 * (base * height)
36 = (base * height) / 2
So let's say base = 9 height 8
If base and height are scaled by a factor if 5 than
base = 45 height 40 and
area = .5 * (45 * 40)
area = 900

Basically, the area increases by a factor of 25.
The base increases by 5 and the height increases by 5 so the area increases by 5*5 = 25

one tank is filling at a rate of 3/4 per gallon per 2/3 minute .a second tank is at a 5/8 gallon per 1 half gallon per 1/2 minut

$recall\ that\implies \cfrac{\frac{a}{b}}{\frac{c}{{{ d}}}}\implies \cfrac{a}{b}\cdot \cfrac{{{ d}}}{c}\qquad thus

\cfrac{\frac{3g}{4}}{\frac{2m}{3}}\implies \cfrac{3g}{4}\cdot \cfrac{3}{2m}\implies \cfrac{\square ?}{\square ?}
\\-------------\\
\cfrac{\frac{5g}{8}}{\frac{1m}{2}}\implies \cfrac{5g}{8}\cdot \cfrac{2}{1m}\implies \cfrac{\square ?}{\square ?}$

so... you tells us, which filling rate is the bigger and thus faster one?

Jovita divides $12,000 into three investments: a savings account paying 4% annual interest, a bond paying 6%, and a money market

xenn [34]

Answer:

$2080 was invested in the savings account, $4241 was invested in the bond account, & $6539 was invested in the money fund.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a, b, and c be the fractions of the $12,000 that is invested in the savings, bond, & money fund respectively.

Let S1, S2, S3 be the total monies from the savings, bond, & money fund after the year with interest respectively.

We know that a+b+c=1

and

S1+S2+S3 = 12000 + 860

S1+S2+S3 = 12860

From, the question, we know that b = 2a, and c = 1 - 3a based on the condition of 2 times more in the bond account that the savings account.

Thus;

S1 = a(12000)(1.04) = 12480a

S2 = 2a(12000)(1.06) = 25,440a

S3 = (1 - 3a)(12000)(1.09) = 13080 - 39240a

We already know that;

S1+S2+S3 = 12860

Thus, Adding the 3 equations gives;

12480a + 25,440a + 13080 - 39240a = 12860

Thus, simplifying gives;

13080 - 12860 = 39240a - 12480a - 25,440a

220 = 1320a

a = 220/1320

a = 0.1667

So,b = 2 x 0.1667 = 0.3334

c = 1 - (3 x 0.1667)

c = 1 - 0.5

c = 0.5

Thus,

S1 = 12480a = 12480 x 0.1667 ≈ $2080

S2 = 25,440a = 25440 x 0.1667 ≈ $4241

S3 = 13080 - 39240(0.1667) ≈ 6539

So, $2080 was invested in the savings account, $4241 was invested in the bond account, & $6539 was invested in the money fund.

Joe is the proud owner of Joe's Old Time BBQ Pit. He sells two types of BBQ sauce - Hot N' Spicy and Mild Mannered. Each gallon

oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

P=$254

Step-by-step explanation:

let Hot N' Spicy be x

and Mild Mannered be y

the objective function is

38x+35y=P

the constraints are

1. tomato sauce

2x+3y=18--------1

2. hot peppers

2x+y=10--------2

solving 1 and 2 we have

using substitution method

2x+y=10--------2

y=10-2x

put y=10-2x in eqn 1

2x+3(10-2x)=18

2x+30-6x=18

2x-6x=18-30

-4x=-12

x=12/4

x=3

put x=3 in eqn 2 we have

2(3)+y=10

6+y=10

y=10-6

y=4

He should make 3 gallons of Hot N' Spicy

and 4 gallons Mild Mannered

38(3)+35(4)=P

114+140=P

254=P

P=$254
