Answer: 76.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimetar of isiscales triangle is calculated using  equation;

P=b+2a

b=9

P=49

lets find sides of triangle.

P-b=2a

a=(P-b)/2

a=49-9/2

a=40/2=20

If another triangle is similar that means that his base and sides are proportional to first triangle.

Base of first trianlge b₁=9

Base of similar triangle is b₂=14

use proportion to find out side of similar triangle:

b₁:b₂=9:14

a₁:a₂=9:14

a₁=20

20: a₂=9:14

a₂=14*20/9=280/9=31.1

Perimetar of second triangle is:

P₂=b₂+2a₂

P₂=14+2*31.1=14+62.2=76.2

Answer:

#15) B. 30 mn^5

#17) B. 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

<h2>#15:</h2>

The area of a trapezoid is given in the formula: 1/2(a + b) * h, where a is the length of the top of the trapezoid, b is the length of the bottom of the trapezoid, and h is the height of the trapezoid.

All of these measurements are given so all that you need to do is to substitute these values into the formula.

Substitute 3 for a, 9 for b, and 5 for h.

  • 1/2(3 + 9) * 5

Solve inside the parentheses first. Add 3 and 9.

  • 1/2(12) * 5

Multiply 12 and 1/2 together.

  • 6 * 5

Multiply 6 and 5.

  • 30

We need to figure out if the area is to the 5th or 6th power. When we added 3 and 9 together, we combined like terms so the exponent stayed to the 3rd power.

After multiplying this ^3 by the 5mn^2, the exponent becomes to the 5th power because you add exponents when multiplying.

Therefore the final answer is B. 30 mn^5.

<h2>#17:</h2>

When going down from 32 to 8 to 2, you can see that each number is being divided by 4.

32 / 4 = 8...

8 / 4 = 2...

So to find the next number in this sequence you would divide 2 by 4.

  • 2 / 4 = 1/2

The answer is B. 1/2.

Show all your work to receive full credit for this problem. Solve the system of equations using the elimination method. 2a + 3b
Sindrei [870]

Given equations are;<span>
2a + 3b = -1   ..................equation 1
3a + 5b = -2  ....................equation 2</span>

Now multiply equation 1 with (-3)

The equation will be;

-6a -9b = 3 …………………..equation 3

Now multiply equation 2 with (2)

The equation will be;

6a + 10b = -4 ……………..equation 4

Now add equation 3 and equation 4

-6a – 9b = 3

<span>6a  + 10b = -4</span>

<span>------------------------------</span>

0a + b = -1

b = -1

Now put the value of b in equation 1

2a + 3(-1) = -1

2a -3 = -1

2a = -1+3

2a = 2

a=1

Thus the solution is (a,b) = (1,-1)

Dakota’s parents are creating her practice ballet studio and want to install baseboards around the perimeter of the rectangular
kherson [118]

1. When you estimate, it is not an exact measurement. 3ft 8 in gets rounded to 4ft and 12 ft 3 in rounds to 12ft. now find the perimeter. P=2l+2w P= 2*12 +2*4 P=32feet

2. 3ft 8in = 3 8/12 or reduced to 3 2/3  12ft 3in = 12 3/12 or reduced to 12 1/4   The fractional part is referring to a fraction of a foot.

3. The perimeter of the room is P=2l+2w or P=2(12 1/4) + 2(3 2/3) p=24 1/2 + 7 1/3  P= 31 5/6 feet

4. The estimate and the actual are very close. They are 1/6 of a foot apart.

5a. Total baseboard 31 5/6ft - 2 1/4 ft = 29 7/12 feet needed.

5b. Take the total and divide it by 8ft  = 29 7/12 divided by 8= 3.7  You are not buying a fraction of a board so you would need 4 boards.
