Rectangle ABCD was dilated to create rectangle A'B'C'D. Triangle A B C D is dilated to form triangle A prime B prime C prime D.

Side B C is 3.8 units. Side A prime B prime is 15 units and side B prime C prime is 9.5 units. What is AB?

Answer:

AB=6 Units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following lengths of rectangle ABCD and its dilation A'B'C'D' respectively

  • A'B' = 15 Units
  • B'C' = 9.5 Units
  • BC = 3.8 units

We are to determine the length of AB. To do this, we first determine the dilation factor.

D$ilation Factor =\dfrac{B'C'}{BC} =\dfrac{9.5}{3.8} =2.5

Therefore:

\dfrac{A'B'}{AB} =2.5\\\\\dfrac{15}{AB} =2.5\\$Cross multiply \\ 2.5 AB =15 \\AB=15 \div 2.5\\$Therefore, AB=6 Units

Combine as indicated by the signs. 8-y/3y + y+2/9y - 2/6y
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

26 + y

----------

   9y


Step-by-step explanation:

Your using parentheses here would remove a great deal of ambiguity.  Looking at your 8-y/3y + y+2/9y - 2/6y, I have interpreted it to mean:

(8-y)/3y + (y+2)/9y - (2/6)y.  For example, without parentheses, your 8-y/3y might be interpreted differently, as 8   -   y/(3y), or 8 - 1/3.

Looking at (8-y)/3y + (y+2)/9y - (2/6)y again, we see three different denominators:  3y, 9y and 6 y.  The LCD here is 9y.  Multiplying all three terms of  (8-y)/3y + (y+2)/9y - (2/6)y by the LCD, we get:

3(8-y) + (y+2) + 3y.  We must now divide this by the LCD:

3(8-y) + (y+2) + 3y

--------------------------

            9y

Next we need to perform the indicated multiplication:

24 - 3y + y + 2 + 3y

----------------------------

            9y

and then to combine like terms:

24 + 2 - 3y + y + 3y,           26 + y

----------------------------   or    -----------

              9y                             9y

Find all the zeros of the function <br> g(x)=x^3-4x^2-x+22
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

x = -2, x = 3 − i√8, and x = 3 + i√8

Step-by-step explanation:

g(x) = x³ − 4x² − x + 22

This is a cubic equation, so it must have either 1 or 3 real roots.

Using rational root theorem, we can check if any of those real roots are rational.  Possible rational roots are ±1, ±2, ±11, and ±22.

g(-1) = 18

g(1) = 18

g(-2) = 0

g(2) = 12

g(-11) = 1782

g(11) = 858

g(-22) = -12540

g(22) = 8712

We know -2 is a root.  The other two roots are irrational.  To find them, we must find the other factor of g(x).  We can do this using long division, or we can factor using grouping.

g(x) = x³ − 4x² − 12x + 11x + 22

g(x) = x (x² − 4x − 12) + 11 (x + 2)

g(x) = x (x − 6) (x + 2) + 11 (x + 2)

g(x) = (x (x − 6) + 11) (x + 2)

g(x) = (x² − 6x + 11) (x + 2)

x² − 6x + 11 = 0

Quadratic formula:

x = [ 6 ± √(36 − 4(1)(11)) ] / 2

x = (6 ± 2i√8) / 2

x = 3 ± i√8

The three roots are x = -2, x = 3 − i√8, and x = 3 + i√8.

Need help with these 3 questions (giving brainiest if you can answer with equations)
Tpy6a [65]

Problem 10

<h3>Answer: approximately 57.39159 km</h3>

Explanation: You'll use the equation cos(28) = d/65 to solve for d to get d = 65*cos(28) = 57.39159 approximately. We use the cosine ratio because it ties together the adjacent and hypotenuse.

=====================================

Problem 11

<h3>Answer: approximately 10.46162 meters </h3>

Explanation: This time we use the sine rule. We have the height as the opposite side (which is unknown, call it x) and the hypotenuse is the ladders length (11). So we have sin(72) = x/11 which solves to x = 11*sin(72) = 10.46162

=====================================

Problem 12

<h3>Answer: approximately 16.05724 cm</h3>

Explanation: Now we use the tangent rule to connect the opposite and adjacent sides.

tan(37) = 12.1/x

x*tan(37) = 12.1

x = 12.1/tan(37)

x = 16.05724 approximately
