Answer: Artaud is 12 years old.

Step-by-step explanation: I started by finding the difference between 40 and 28.

40 - 28 = 12

So since he is taking the opposite of his age he must have done -12 because:

-12 + 40 = 28

When multiplying fractions just multiply the numerator and denominators together, then simplify the fraction you get.

To solve the addition problem, first convert 2 and 1/2 to an improper fraction. It should be 5/2. Now 3/8 and 5/2 must be added together.

To add these, they must have the same denominator. Let's give 5/2 a denominator of 8, so it matches 3/8.

To give 5/2 a denominator of 8, you are starting with a denominator of 2. 2 × 4 = 8, so you must multiply 5/2 by 4.

You should get 20/8. Now you have to add 20/8 and 3/8. The only thing you add is the numerator, so you should get 23/8 as a final answer.

For the subtraction problem, do these same steps to make the fractions you must subtract have the same denominator, then subtract only the numerator to get the answer. Once you solve the subtraction problem, text me what you got so I can check it for you. :)

The answers are: 1.73 miles 2.65 miles 3.16 miles 4.58 miles Thanks!

Answer:

4.58 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean theorem is used to answer such questions. It tells you the relation between the side lengths is ...

AC² = AB² +BC²

In miles, ...

5² = AB² + 2² . . . . . . . fill in the given numbers

25 -4 = AB² . . . . . . . . subtract 2²

√21 = AB ≈ 4.58 . . . . . take the square root

The distance in miles from A to B is about 4.58.

if two pyramids are similar and the ratio between the lengths of their edges is 2;7 what is the ratio of their volumes? ...?

jok3333 [9.3K]

The answer is 8:343.

We can use Galileo's square cube law to calculate the ratio between two similar pyramids. The law is used to describe the change of the area or the volume of the shape when their dimensions increase or decrease:
$\frac{V_1}{V_2} =( \frac{l_1}{l_2} )^{3} \\$ 
 
V₁ and V₂ - volumes of pyramids,
l₁ and l₂ - the edges of pyramids.

 $\frac{V_1}{V_2} =( \frac{l_1}{l_2} )^{3} \\ \frac{V_1}{V_2} =( \frac{2}{7} )^{3} \\ \frac{V_1}{V_2} = \frac{2^{3}}{7^{3}} \\ \frac{V_1}{V_2} = \frac{8}{343} \\$

Answer:

14.32

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the distance using the distance formula:

$d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$
