Answer:

4 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of the sides = ratio of the square roots of the areas.

Ratio of the sides = √ 20  / √180

= 2√5 / 6 √5

= 1/3

So the length of the required side = 1/3 * 12

= 4

Answer:

The corresponding side of the first triangle is 4 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

In similar triangle, ratio of areas of triangles is equal to the ratio of square of their corresponding sides.

Consider, the below two similar triangles,

area(ΔXYZ) = 20m² , area(ΔPQR) = 180m² and PQ = 12m

We have to find value of XY.

According to above property of similar triangle,

\frac{ar(\bigtriangleup{XYZ})}{ar(\bigtriangleup{PQR})}=\frac{(XY)^2}{(PQ)^2}

Put values in the above equation, we get,

\frac{20}{180}=\frac{(XY)^2}{(12)^2}

Solving for XY,

\Rightarrow \frac{1}{9}=\frac{(XY)^2}{144}

Cross multiply, we get,

\Rightarrow \frac{144}{9}=(XY)^2

\Rightarrow \sqrt{\frac{144}{9}}=(XY)

\Rightarrow \frac{12}{3}=XY

\Rightarrow XY=4

Thus, the corresponding side of the first triangle is 4 m.

You could divide 100 by 4 which is 25. Then divide 69 by 4 which would bring you to 17.25. 169 divided by 4 is 42.25. The answer would be 42 with a remainder of 1

The first thing you should do in this case is to compose both functions:
 f (x) = x + 7
 g (x) = 1 / (x-13)
 Making the composition
 f (g (x)) = (1 / (x-13)) + 7
 f (g (x)) = (7 (x-13) +1) / (x-13)
 Answer:
 The domain of the function is:
 x other than 13

What is (1.7x10^4)x(8.5x10^-2) in standard form
Temka [501]

Answer:

1.445 × 10³

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard form is a way of writing a small number or a large number easily.

We should give the final answer in standard form.

1) (1.7 × 10⁴) × (8.5 × 10⁻²)

We enter this directly into the calculator to obtain a solution.

= 1445

We write this in standard form we have :

1.445 × 10³
