There are two triangles, a big triangle and a small triangle that is inside the big triangle. Because the base of the triangles are parallel to each other( indicated by the arrow), and the small triangle is perfectly inside the bigger triangle, the sides of the triangles are proportional.
It is know that the base of the small triangle is 3.5, and the hypotenuse of the small triangle is 7cm. it is also known that the the hypotenuse of the big triangle is (7+8)=15 and the base of the big triangle is unknown.
Since the triangles are proportional,
to find the base of the big triangle
base(big)/hypotenuse(big)=base(small)/hypotenuse(small)
Plug in the numbers
x/15=3.5/7
x/15=1/2
x=15/2
x=7.5
The length of the base of the big triangle is 7.5cm
C. Phonograph were inferior in sound quality.
Step-by-step explanation:
Researches have shown that plants respond to the sounds of their pollinator.
Some plants begin to produce a greater amount of nectar and some begin to vibrate to attract the attention of the pollinators towards them.
Greater the intensity of the sound of the pollinator, the faster the reaction will be.
Phonographs have a sound of lower intensity when compared to the intensity of sound produced by the radio.
Thus the radio was better than the phonograph in encouraging the concept of cross-pollination.
The simplification of 25p^6q^9 / 45p^8q^4 using a positive exponent;
- Division is 5p^6 q^9 / 9p^8 q^4
- Elevated form is 5/9 p^-2 q^5
<h3>What are algebraic expressions?</h3>
Algebraic expressions are expressions made up of factors, variables, terms, coefficients and constants.
They are also comprised of arithmetic operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, etc
We also know that index forms are also know as standard forms.
They are mathematical expressions showing the power of exponent of a variable in terms of another variable.
Given the index algebraic forms;
25p^6q^9 / 45p^8q^4
Using the rule of indices, we take the negative exponent of the divisor and multiply through.
We have;
5p^6 q^9 × 9p^-8 q^-4
Add exponential values
5/9 p^6-8 q^9 -4
5/9 p^-2 q^5
Thus, the expression is simplified to 5/9 p^-2 q^5
