Answer:

a.) 4 : 9

b.) 16 : 81

Explanation:

a.) Ratio of perimeter will still be

4 : 9

b.) The two similar triangles  ΔABC and ΔDEF as shown from the attached figures. That is

AB/DE = AC/DF = BC/EF

It is apparent that ΔAPB and ΔDEQ are also similar as all respective angles are equal. Hence,

AB/DE = AP/DQ = BP/EQ

Moreso ΔABC = 1/2 × BC × AP  and   ΔDEF = 1/2 × EF × DQ and

ΔAPB/ΔDEQ = BC/EF × AP/DQ

But 

AP/DQ = AB/DE = BC/EF

 and hence

ΔAPB/ΔDEQ = BC/EF × BC/EF

= BC^2/EF^2  and as

BC/EF = AC/DF = AB/DE

ΔAPB/ΔDEQ = AC^2/DF^2 = BC^2/EF^2

= AB^2/DE^2

Hence if sides of two similar triangles are in the ratio a:b, their areas are in the proportion a^2:b^2

As in given case sides are in the ratio of 4:9.

ratio of their areas is 4^2:9^2 or 16:81.

If a person takes 30 ml of vinegar a day and the molarity of the vinegar is 0. 84 m then how many grams of acetic acid (hc2h3o2
babunello [35]

The mass of the acetic acid is 1.512 g.

<h3 /><h3>What is Molarity?</h3>

molarity is the concentration of a substance in mol per dm³

From the question,

The number of moles contained in the 30 mL vinegar is

  • n = (0.84×30)/1000
  • n = 0.0252 mol.

the molar mass of vinegar is calculated below.

  • m.m of (HC₂H₃O₂) = [1+(12×2)+(1×3)+(16×2)]
  • m.m = (1+24+3+32]
  • m.m = 60 g/mol.

To calculate the mass of acetic acid, we use the formula below.

  • R.m = n×m.m............. Equation 1

Where

  • R.m = mass of acetic acid.

Substitute these values into equation 1

  • R.m = (0.0252×60)
  • R.m = 1.512 g.

Hence, The mass of the acetic acid is 1.512 g.

In a recent survey, 1358 arizona state university students were asked about their plans after graduation. The following results
lisov135 [29]

The answers to the given questions on the survey of students by the use of a Venn Diagram are;

A) Venn diagram attached

B) 57 Students

C) 811 Students

D) 785 Students

E) 67 Students

<h3>Understanding Venn Diagrams</h3>

We are given;

  • Total number of Students = 1358
  • Number of Students that plan to get a new job = 1194
  • Number of Students that plan to attend graduate school = 306
  • Number of Students that plan to buy a new car = 547
  • Number of Students that plan to do all three things = 46
  • Number of Students that plan to only attend graduate school = 28
  • Number of Students that plan to get a job and buy a new car, but not attend graduate school = 432
  • Number of Students that plan to get a new job and attend graduate school = 221

A) I have drawn a Venn Diagram to depict this given numbers of students and I have attached it.

B) From the venn diagram, we can see that the number of people that plan to attend graduate school and buy a new car, but not get a new job = 57

C) From the Venn diagram, we can calculate the number of students that do not plan to buy a new car is;

541 + 175 + 28 + 67 = 811

D) From the venn diagram, we can calculate the number of students plan to get a new job or buy a new car as;

541 + 175 + 12 + 57 = 785

E) From the venn diagram, we can see that the number of students that do not plan to get a new job, attend graduate school, nor buy a new car is; 67

The complete part of the question is;

A) Draw a Venn diagram that represents the situation consisting of 2. cardinalities.

B) How many people plan to attend graduate school and buy a new car, but not get a new job?

C) How many students do not plan a buy a new car?

D) How many students plan to get a new job or buy a new car?

E) How many students do not plan to get a new job, attend graduate school, nor buy a new car?
