Is trapezoid ABDC the result of a dilation of trapezoid MNPQ by a scale factor of ? Why or why not?

Answer:

No, because AB is 2/5 the length MN but CD is 1/3 the length QP.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Comparing the corresponding sides, the length of AB is 4.  The length of MN is 10.  This makes their ratio 4/10 = 2/5.

The length of CD is 2.  The length of QP is 6.  this makes their ratio 2/6 = 1/3.

The ratios of the sides are not the same, so the figure is not proportional and is therefore not a dilation.

Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

2,889 digits

Step-by-step explanation:

Total pages of the book = 999 pages

Page 1 - 9 cut separately = 9 digits

Page 10 - 99 = 90 pages

Total digits = 2(90)

= 180 digits cut separately

Page 100 - 999 = 900 pages

Total digits = 3(900)

= 2,700 digits cut separately

how many separate digits does Kai have when he is finished

Total separate digits Kai have when he is finished = 9 digits + 180 digits + 2700 digits

= 2,889 digits

Total separate digits Kai have when he is finished = 2,889 digits

Find the equation of the line through the given pair of points. (-7,-6) and (-4,9)
Softa [21]

Answer:

y=5x+29

Step-by-step explanation:

1. find slope

y2-y1/x2-x1

9--6/-4--7= 15/3=5

2. substitute x and y

(-4, 9)= 9=5(-4)+b

            9=-20+b

             29=b

3. put it together

y=5x+29

Distance from the finish line is equal to the distance of the start line from the finish line, minus one third of a km times the number of minutes hes been running.

using given variables; D= 5 - 1/3*3
D=5-3/3
D=5-1
D=4

A flash disk has the capacity of storing 1 megabyte of data. How many kilobytes of data can be stored in the same flash disk​
Luden [163]

For this sort of problem, you need to be familiar with prefixes.

So:

megabyte = 1 *10^6 bytes

kilobyte = 1*10^3 bytes

and a regular byte would just be 1

Now, you will need to do a conversion:

1megabyte*\frac{1*10^6bytes}{1megabyte}*\frac{1*10^{-3}kilobyte}{1byte}

I'm going to explain this just in case, but we convert megabytes to regular bytes in the first half by using the information I gave you above. (In one megabyte, there are 1*10^6 bytes!)

In the second fraction thought, remember one kilobyte is 1*10^3 bytes. However, you usually only see one of each thing on the bottom of fractions, so you need to add a negative sign to the 3. (technically you could just do \frac{1kilobyte}{1*10^3bytes}, but I think it is more correct to do write it out how I did).

*** They do equal the same thing though! Do whichever way is easier for you!

Now, your answer should be:

10^3 kilobytes (1000 kilobytes)

Hope this helped!
