Answer:

Jameel is 13 and Laitfa is 13 x 2 - 10 = 16

16 + 13 = 29

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation has already been given to us, so we just have to solve it.

According to the question,

L + J = 29

L = 2J - 10

  L

2J - 10  +  J = 29

add 10 both sides

2J + J = 29 + 10 = 39

3J = 39

J = 39/3 = 13

Done!

Determine the scale factor for each dilation. Determine whether the dilation is an enlargement, reduction, or congruence transfo
scoray [572]

General Idea:

W hen we are given a point P(x, y) centered at origin with a scale factor of k, then the dilated point will be given by P' (kx, ky)

Whenk>1, then P' is enlargement of P

When 0 < k < 1, then P' is reduction of P

Applying the concept:

In the diagram given A'B'C' is enlargement of ABC. So the correct option will be option A. k = 2, enlargement

Find the area of a circle whose area equals the half of the sum of the areas of two circles with radil 2 and 3.
OlgaM077 [116]

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1. a circle with r = 2 has area of (pi)r^2 = (pi)(4) = 4pi

step 2. a circle with r = 3 has area of (pi)r^2 = (pi)(9) = 9pi

step 3. the area, A, of a circle is half the sum of the area of the circles with r = 2 and r = 3

step 4. A = (4pi + 9pi)/2 = 13pi/2 = 6.5(pi).

step 5. the answer is not 6.5 but is 6.5(pi) or 6.5 times pi.

Answer:

75%

Step-by-step explanation:

When we multiply a number by 1.75.

Now, note that: 1.75=\dfrac{175}{100} =\dfrac{100}{100}+\dfrac{75}{100}=1+75\%

Therefore, when we multiply a number by 1.75, it is the same as increasing by 75%.

Let us take an example say the number 15.

  • 15 X 1.75 =26.25

If we increase 15 by 75%, we have:

  • 15+(0.75X 15)=15+11.25=26.25
