Radiation​ machines, used to treat​ tumors, produce an intensity of radiation that varies inversely as the square of the distanc

e from the machine. At 3​ meters, the radiation intensity is 62.5 milliroentgens per hour. What is the intensity at a distance of 2.7 ​meters?The intensity is______milliroentgens per hour. (Round to the nearest tenth as needed.)

Answer:

77.2 milliroentgens per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to find the constant of proportionality

I ∝ 1/d²

I = k/d²

62.5 = k/(3)²

k = 562.5

The second step is to calculate the intensity at 2.7 meters:

I = 562.5/d²

I = 562.5/(2.7)²

I = 77.2 milliroentgens per hour

Use a flowchart to prove if the triangles in each pair of similar. NO LINKS!!!<br>​
vekshin1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Start

<F = <Q                     Given

<GPF = <RPQ           Vertically opposite angles

<FGP = <QRP            A triangle has 180 degrees. 2 equal angles means the third pair must be equal

Triangle GPF ~ Triangle RPQ   AAA

end

I don't see any way to make these triangles similar except by stating the statement and why it is so. There really are no yes / no choices. If you get another answer, choose it.

JL/LE = 90/27                 Given

KL /LD = 90/27               Given

<JLK = <DLK                   Vertically opposite

Are the ratios equal       Yes  Then is the angle included Yes

Then the triangles are similar.

Are the ratios not equal  No then the triangles cannot be similar

Is the angle not included  Then similarity cannot be proved.

ΔJLK ≈ ΔDLK                  Equal Ratios and included angle === similarity

<u><em>A proper fraction is a fraction whose numerator is smaller than its denominator.</em></u>

<u><em> An improper fraction is a fraction whose numerator is equal to or greater than its denominator. </em></u>

Example:

<em>3/4, 2/11, and 7/19 are proper fractions, while 5/2, 8/5, and 12/11 are improper fractions.</em>

Lostsunrise [7]
Cupcakes =c
Drinks = d
22 c + 30d = $44.40...eqn 1
30c + 35d = $53.75...eqn 2
Multiply eqn 1 by 7 and eqn 2 by 6
154c +210d =$310.80...eqn 3
180c+ 210d = $322.5...eqn 4
Eqn 4 - eqn 3
26 c = $11.70
C = 11.7/26 = 45c
Subst c = 45c in eqn 1
$9.90 + 30d =$44.40
d = ($44.40-$9.90)/30 = $1.15
