Area of rectangle = lb = 47 m^2

Dilation by a factor of 7 results in 1/7 l x 1/7 b = 1/49 lb = 1/49 (47) = 47/49 = 0.9592

Answer:

The area of the dilated rectangle is $28\ m^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the scale factor squared is equal to the ratio of its areas

Let

z------> the scale factor

x-----> the area of dilated rectangle

y-----> the area of the original rectangle

so

$z^{2}=\frac{x}{y}$

In this problem we have

$z=7$

$y=(4/7)\ m^{2}$

substitute and solve for x

$7^{2}=\frac{x}{4/7}$

$x=49*(4/7)=28\ m^{2}$

Answer:

$x=3\sqrt 5\\$

$y = \sqrt {126}$

Step-by-step explanation:

By geometric mean property:

$x = \sqrt{9 \times 5} = \sqrt{45} = 3 \sqrt{5} \\ \\ by \: pythagoras \: theorem \\ \\ {y}^{2} = {9}^{2} + {x}^{2} \\ \\ {y}^{2} = {9}^{2} + {(3 \sqrt{5}) }^{2} \\ \\ {y}^{2} = 81 + 45 \\ \\ {y}^{2} = 126 \\ \\ y = \sqrt{126}$

A bucket contains 40 red balls, 25 black balls, and 35 white balls. Two balls are drawn at random. What is the probability that

Lyrx [107]

Answer:

$Probability = \frac{1}{5}$ or $Probability = 0.2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Black = 25$

$White = 35$

$Red = 40$

Required

Determine the probability of selecting Black and Red

First, we need to calculate the number of red and black balls

The probability is calculated as thus:

$Probability = P(Black\ and \ Red) \ or\ P(Red\ and \ Black)$

Convert to mathematical expressions

$Probability = [P(Black) *P(Red)] + [P(Red) *P(Black)]$

Solve for each probaility;

$P(Black) = \frac{Black}{Total} = \frac{25}{100}$

$P(Red) = \frac{Red}{Total} = \frac{40}{100}$

So, we have:

$Probability = [P(Black) *P(Red)] + [P(Red) *P(Black)]$ $Probability = [\frac{25}{100} *\frac{40}{100}] + [\frac{40}{100} *\frac{25}{100}]$

$Probability = [\frac{1000}{10000}] + [\frac{1000}{10000}]$

$Probability = [\frac{1}{10}] + [\frac{1}{10}]$

$Probability = \frac{1+1}{10}$

$Probability = \frac{2}{10}$

$Probability = \frac{1}{5}$

or

$Probability = 0.2$

What are the solutions to

Svetllana [295]

Answer:

B and F

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² + 4x + 4 = 12 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

x² + 4x = 8

Using the method of completing the square to solve for x

add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides

x² + 2(2)x + 4 = 8 + 4, that is

(x + 2)² = 12 ( take the square root of both sides )

x + 2 = ± $\sqrt{12}$ ( subtract 2 from both sides )

x = ± $\sqrt{12}$ - 2

= ± 2 $\sqrt{3}$ - 2

Hence

x = 2 $\sqrt{3}$ - 2 → B

x = - 2 $\sqrt{3}$ - 2 → F
