7/8 square foot in 1/4 hour

Sergeu [11.5K]

the sum of all interior angles in a polygon is 180(n - 2), where n = number of sides.

well, this is a quadrilateral, so it has 4 sides so it has a total of interior angles of 180(4-2) = 360°, since this is a kite, then <u>one pair of opposite angles are congruent</u>, namely ∡C = ∡A.

360° - 45° - 100° = 215°, and ∡C and ∡A split that evenly, so ∡C = 107.5°.

Quadrilateral ABCD is similar to Quadrilateral EFGH. Diagonal AC has length 7 and diagonal EG has length 13. What is the scale f

olasank [31]

Answer:

$\large \boxed{\text{A. }\dfrac{13}{7}\text{; B. }\dfrac{17}{14} \text{; C. 507 in}^{2}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

A. Scale factor

When you dilate an object by a scale factor, you multiply its line lengths by the same number.

If EF/AB = 13/7, the scale factor is 13/7.

B. Length of EF

$\begin{array}{rcl}\dfrac{EF}{AB} & = & \dfrac{13}{7}\\\\\dfrac{EF}{\frac{17}{26}} & = & \dfrac{13}{7}\\\\EF & = & \dfrac{13}{7}\times\dfrac{17}{26}\\\\ & = &\dfrac{1}{7}\times\dfrac{17}{2}\\\\ & = & \mathbf{\dfrac{17}{14}}\\\end{array}\\\text{The length of EF is $\large \boxed{\mathbf{ \dfrac{17}{14}}}$}$

C. Area of EFGH

If the lengths in a shape are all multiplied by a scale factor, then the areas will be multiplied by the scale factor squared.

ABCD is dilated by a scale factor of 13/7, so its area is dilated by a scale factor of

$\left(\dfrac{13}{7} \right)^{2} = \dfrac{169}{49}$

The area of its dilated image EFGH is

$\text{Area of EFGH} = \text{147 in}^{2} \times \dfrac{\text{169}}{\text{49}} = 3 \times 169\text{ in}^{2} = 507 \text{ in}^{2}\\\\\text{The area of EFGH is $\large \boxed{\textbf{507 in}^{\mathbf{2}}}$}$

The first step in the process for factoring the trinomial x^2-3x-40 is to

jenyasd209 [6]

(x-8)(x+5)

First thing you do is put the X's into the parentheticals because it is x^2 meaning there are 2 factors with x's. Then, you wonder what factors of -40 could add to get -3. In this case, they are -8 and 5. -8 times 5 is -40 and -8 +5 is -3. Then, you just add -8 and 5 beside the x's in the parentheticals.

April worked 1 1/2 times as long on her math project as did Carl. Debbie worked 1 1/4 times as long as Sonia. Richard worked 1 3

vlada-n [284]

Answer:

Student Hours worked

April. $7\frac{7}{8} \ hrs$

Debbie. $8\frac{1}{8}\ hrs$

Richard. $7\frac{19}{24}\ hrs$

Step-by-step explanation:

Some data's were missing so we have attached the complete information in the attachment.

Given:

Number of Hours Carl worked on Math project = $5\frac{1}{4}\ hrs$

$5\frac{1}{4}\ hrs$ can be Rewritten as $\frac{21}{4}\ hrs$

Number of Hours Carl worked on Math project = $\frac{21}{4}\ hrs$

Number of Hours Sonia worked on Math project = $6\frac{1}{2}\ hrs$

$6\frac{1}{2}\ hrs$ can be rewritten as $\frac{13}{2}\ hrs$

Number of Hours Sonia worked on Math project = $\frac{13}{2}\ hrs$

Number of Hours Tony worked on Math project = $5\frac{2}{3}\ hrs$

$5\frac{2}{3}\ hrs$ can be rewritten as $\frac{17}{3}\ hrs.$

Number of Hours Tony worked on Math project = $\frac{17}{3}\ hrs.$

Now Given:

April worked $1\frac{1}{2}$ times as long on her math project as did Carl.

$1\frac{1}{2}$ can be Rewritten as $\frac{3}{2}$

Number of Hours April worked on math project = $\frac{3}{2}$ $\times$ Number of Hours Carl worked on Math project

Number of Hours April worked on math project = $\frac{3}{2}\times \frac{21}{4} = \frac{63}{8}\ hrs \ \ Or \ \ 7\frac{7}{8} \ hrs$

Also Given:

Debbie worked $1\frac{1}{4}$ times as long as Sonia.

$1\frac{1}{4}$ can be Rewritten as $\frac{5}{4}$ .

Number of Hours Debbie worked on math project = $\frac{5}{4}$ $\times$ Number of Hours Sonia worked on Math project

Number of Hours Debbie worked on math project = $\frac{5}{4}\times \frac{13}{2}= \frac{65}{8}\ hrs \ \ Or \ \ 8\frac{1}{8}\ hrs$

Also Given:

Richard worked $1\frac{3}{8}$ times as long as tony.

$1\frac{3}{8}$ can be Rewritten as $\frac{11}{8}$

Number of Hours Richard worked on math project = $\frac{11}{8}$ $\times$ Number of Hours Tony worked on Math project

Number of Hours Debbie worked on math project = $\frac{11}{8}\times \frac{17}{3}= \frac{187}{24}\ hrs \ \ Or \ \ 7\frac{19}{24}\ hrs$

Hence We will match each student with number of hours she worked.

Student Hours worked

April. $7\frac{7}{8} \ hrs$

Debbie. $8\frac{1}{8}\ hrs$

Richard. $7\frac{19}{24}\ hrs$

Nicholas has a collection of books. He has 115 fantasy and science fiction books. These books are 46% of his collection. How man

Anit [1.1K]

Given that Nicholas has a 115 fantasy and science fiction books which is 46% of his collection.

Now we have to find what is total number of books in his collection.

Let number of books in Nicholas collection = x

then number of fantasy and science fiction books = 46% of x = 0.46x

We already know that he has 115 fantasy and science fiction books, so both values will be equal and give equation:

0.46x=115

now we can solve this equation to find the answer.

$x=\frac{115}{0.46}$

x= 250

Hence final answer is:

Nicholas has 250 books in his collection.
