Answer:
x = 7 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
The smaller triangle is 6/9 = 2/3 the size of the larger triangle, so the left side is ...
(x -2) = (2/3)(8)
3(x -2) = 16 . . . . . multiply by 3 to clear fractions
3x -6 = 16 . . . . . . eliminate parentheses
3x = 22 . . . . . . . . add 6; next divide by 3*
x = 22/3 = 7 1/3 . . . . . feet
_____
* Note that we multiplied by 3, then divided by 3. If you're comfortable working with fractions and/or mixed numbers, these steps are unnecessary. The answer is simply x = 2 + 16/3 = 22/3.
Answer:
a c d
.............................................
Answer:
d = 24
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a circle is given by A = π * r²
We are told the area of the clock is 144π.
Let's clear the formula for the radius:
r² = A / π
r² = 144π / π
r² = 144
r = √144
r = 12
The diameter is two times the radius, d = 2r = 2*12 = 24.
First we convert it in seconds.
Number of seconds in 1 minute = 60 seconds
Therefore,
Number of seconds in 4.2 minutes = 4.2 x 60 = 252 seconds.
Next we convert it in hours.
60 minutes make up an hour. So we can write,
Number of hours in 60 minutes = 1 hour
Number of hours in 1 minute = 1/60 hour
Number of hours in 4.2 minutes = 1/60 x 4.2 = 0.07 hour
Therefore, the video is 252 seconds or 0.07 hour long.
