Answer:

x = 6, y = 45

Step-by-step explanation:

scale \: factor =  \frac{13}{32.5}  \\  =  \frac{2}{5}   \\  \\  \frac{x}{15} =  \frac{18}{y}   =  \frac{2}{5}  \\  \\ \implies  \frac{x}{15}  =  \frac{2}{5}  \\  \\ x =  \frac{2 \times 15}{5}  \\  \\ x = 6 \\  \\ \frac{18}{y}   =  \frac{2}{5} \\  \\ y =  \frac{5 \times 18}{2}  \\  \\ y = 45

In a jar of coins, the ratio of nickels to dimes is 2:7. If the jar contains 350 nickels, how many dimes are there? A) 175 B) 35
Dvinal [7]
No nickles = 2x and that of dimes = 7x so 2x = 350 get x and the no of dimes
so like 2x = 350 divide by 2 on both sides so x = 175 ... and no of dimes = 7*x = 7*175 = 1225
Hope it helps :)

a roller coaster train with 6 passenger cars and the front decoration has a mass of 3500 kg. when the train has the front decora
Arada [10]

Answer:

The mass of each passenger is 550 kg.

The mass of front decoration is 200 Kg.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A roller coaster train with 6 passenger cars and the front decoration has a mass of 3500 kg. when the train has the front decoration and only 4 passenger cars, it has a mass of 2400 kg.

To find : What is the mass of the decoration and of each passenger car?

Solution :

Let the mass of each passenger is x.

Let the mass of front decoration is y.

  • When the number of passenger = 6

Mass of 6 passengers and front decoration = 3500 kg.

The equation form is 6x+y=3500 ..........[1]

  • When the number of passengers = 4

Mass of 4 passengers and front decoration = 2400 kg.

The equation form is 4x+y=2400  ........[2]

Solving equation [1] and [2]

Subtract equation [2] from [1],

6x+y-4x-y=3500-2400

2x=1100

x=550

Put value in [1],

6(550)+y=3500

3300+y=3500

y=200

Therefore, The mass of each passenger is 550 kg.

The mass of front decoration is 200 Kg.

HELP PLZZ ASAP !! a. The value of x is 6 , what is the value of y?
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

a). y = 4.5

b) Scale factor = \frac{3}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

a). Since, polygon Q is the scaled copy of polygon P

    Both the figures will be similar.

    Therefore, their corresponding sides will be proportional.

    \frac{x}{y} =\frac{4}{3}

    If x = 6,

    \frac{6}{y} =\frac{4}{3}

    y = \frac{3\times 6}{4}

    y = 4.5

b). Since, polygon Q is the scaled copy of polygon P,

    Polygon Q will be the image of preimage polygon P.

    Scale factor = \frac{\text{Length of a side of the image}}{\text{Length of a side of the preimage}}

                         = \frac{3}{4}

The height and radius of a cone are each multiplied by 3. What effect does this have
Black_prince [1.1K]

The volume of the original cone is multiplied by 27

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

We have been given that the height and radius of a cone are each multiplied by 3.

We need to find what effect it has on the volume of the cone.

<em><u>The volume of the original cone is given as follows:</u></em>

\text {Volume of cone}=\frac{1}{3} \pi r^{2} h

Now, the radius and height are multiplied by 3.

Therefore, the new radius is ‘3r’ and the new height is ‘3h’.

Hence the new volume is  

\text {Volume of new cone}=\frac{1}{3} \pi(3 r)^{2}(3 h)=9 \pi r^{2} h

original volume of cone x 27 = volume of new cone

Therefore, the original volume of cone is multiplied by 27
