Hi!

We will solve this using ratios, like this:

1 shelf holds 45 pounds

x shelves hold 270 pounds

______________________

x = (270*1)/45

x = 270/45

x = 6

6 shelves will be needed to hold 270 pounds of boxes.

Hope this helps!

1.Encuentra de dos formas diferentes el área de las figuras mostradas en cada literal:

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

Cuadrilátero A: $A = y^{2}+4\cdot y +4$

Cuadrilátero B: $A = a^{2}+6\cdot a + 9$

Step-by-step explanation:

Existen dos formas distintas de determinar las áreas de cada cuadrilátero:

(i) <em>Obtener el área de cada cuadrado y sumar los resultados.</em>

(ii) <em>Calcular los lados del cuadrilátero grande y determinar el área. </em>

Cuadrilátero A

Método (i)

$A = y^{2}+2\cdot y +4+2\cdot y$

$A = y^{2}+4\cdot y +4$

Método (ii)

$A = (y+2)\cdot (y+2)$

$A = y^{2}+4\cdot y + 4$

Cuadrilátero B

Método (i)

$A = a^{2}+3\cdot a +9 + 3\cdot a$

$A = a^{2}+6\cdot a +9$

Método (ii)

$A = (a+3)\cdot (a+3)$

$A = a^{2}+6\cdot a + 9$

map of a city uses the scale 1 cm equals 50 m. On the map, South Street is 25 cm long. If there is a traffic cone at the start

aivan3 [116]

Answer:

125 traffic cones

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the total number of meters, we can set up a proportion to find based on the ration of cm to m:

$\frac{centimeters}{meters}=\frac{1}{50}=\frac{25}{x}$ , where 'x' is the number of meters

cross-multiply: x = 25(50) or x = 1250 m

Since there is a cone every 10 m, we can divide the total number of meters by 10:

1250/10 = 125 cones

Can you help Jorge organize the results into a two-way frequency table? Please answer this ASAP

Juliette [100K]

Answer:

The table is attached!

Step-by-step explanation:

6 students play both musical instrument and a sport
3 students play neither a musical instrument nor a sport
14 students in total play a sport

Given: There are 24 students in the class

The number of students that does not play a sport is 24 - 14 = 10

The number of students that does not play a musical instrument but play a sport = 14 - 6 = 8

The frequency table thus is attached below:
