Suppose two rectangles are similar with a scale factor of 2. What is the ratio of their areas?

1 answer:

8 0

Similar means their sides have the same ratio but don't have to be the same length. So if two rectangles are similar with a scale factor of 2 then the ratio of their areas would be 4:1

Answer:

13: 312yd squared

14: 907.5 rounded up but not rounded is 907.46

Step-by-step explanation:

this is because the formula is pi*r^2 so you'd

Step by step:

1. 20yd/2= 10 to get the radius for 13

2. substitute r in the formula pi*r^2 for 10 making it pi*10^2

3. multiply 10 by itself, 10*10=100

4. multiply pi by 100, 3.14*100= 314

314yd^2 is the answer for 13

14:

1. 34ft/2=17 to get the radius for 14

2. substitute r on the formula pi*r^2 for 17 making it pi*17^2

3. multiply 17 by itself, 17*17=289

4. multiply pi by 289, 3.14*289=907.46

5. round 907.46 to the nearest tenth, 907.5

907.5ft^2 is your answer

hope this helps :)

dillon pays x dollars to get a haircut. he gives the stylist a 15% tip. the expression representing his total cost is x + 0.15x

bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

B) 1.15x, adding 15% to the cost of haircut is same as to multiply cost by 1.15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression = x + 15% of x

x + (15/100) x = x + 0.15x

= (1+ 0.15) x = 1.15x

15% = 0.15 , added to x = 1.15x

A circus acrobat is shot out of a cannon. The equation for the acrobat's pathway can be modeled by h= -16t^2+25. How long will i

Alex_Xolod [135]

For this we almost have the following equation:
$h = -16t ^ 2 + 25
$
We must match the equation to zero:
$-16t ^ 2 + 25 = 0
$
From here, we clear the value of t.
We have then:
$16t ^ 2 = 25

t ^ 2 = 25/16$
We discard the negative root because we are looking for time:
$t = \sqrt{ \frac{25}{16} } 

$
$t = \frac{5}{4}$
Answer:
it will take him to reach the ground about:
$t = \frac{5}{4}$ seconds
