Answer:

A) 14

Step-by-step explanation:

BC is congruent to DC in saying this you can plug the equations to each other and solve for y and then put its back into the equation for BC to get the length.

3y+5=5y-1

subtract 3y from both sides --> 5=2y-1

add 1 to both sides --> 6=2y

now get y alone, divide by 2 by both side --> y=3

plug y in back to 5y-1 --> 5x3-1

15-1

BC = 14

A team of scientists is traveling by boat to study a pod, or group, of dolphins. The equation y = 0.2x can be used to find the d

Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

42 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that:

y = 0.2*x

is the equation that that defines the distance, in miles, that the boat travels in x minutes.

We know that the dolphins are at 8.4 miles from the boat.

Then when we have y = 8.4, this will mean that the boat reached the dolphins.

Then we need to solve the equation:

y = 8.4 = 0.2*x

for x

To do that, we just need to isolate x in one side of the equation, so we can just divide both sides by 0.2 to get:

8.4/0.2 = (0.2*x)/0.2

42 = x

And x is time in minutes, thus, the boat needs to travel for 42 minutes to reach the dolphins.

The formula for finding the volume of a nose cone of an aircraft is V = (pi * d ^ 2 * h)/6 where d is the diameter of the base o

adell [148]

Answer:

$h=\frac{6V}{\pi d^2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$V=\frac{\pi d^2h}{6}$

Solve for h

That means ----> isolate the variable h

step 1

Multiply by 6 both sides

$6V=\pi d^2h$

step 2

Divide by $\pi d^2$ both sides

$h=\frac{6V}{\pi d^2}$

What fraction is greater than C on the given number line above?

Ghella [55]

Answer:

2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

C is at the second tick of 6 segements, so C = 2/6 = 1/3.

If we convert all fractions to /60, you can easily see the answer:

1/3 = 20/60

2/5 = 24/60

1/4 = 15/60

1/5 = 12/60

So we're looking for an answer larger than 20/60, which is only 24/60, a.k.a. 2/5.
