Answer:

56.3 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given 2 similar figures with linear ratio = a : b, then

area ratio = a² : b²

Here linear ratio = 4 : 3, thus

area ratio = 4² : 3² = 16 : 9

Let x be the surface area of the smaller can then by proportion

\frac{16}{100} = \frac{9}{x} ( cross- multiply )

16x = 900 ( divide both sides by 16 )

x ≈ 56.3 in² ( to the nearest tenth )

Find the solutions to x2 = 28.
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer: x = \pm2\sqrt{7}\\\\

Work Shown:

x^2 = 28\\\\x = \pm\sqrt{28}\\\\x = \pm\sqrt{4*7}\\\\x = \pm\sqrt{4}*\sqrt{7}\\\\x = \pm2\sqrt{7}\\\\

This can be rewritten into x = 2\sqrt{7} \ \text{ or } \ x = -2\sqrt{7}

3. NASA launched the Voyager spacecraft with a mission to observe Jupiter and Saturn. In 1990,
makkiz [27]

The linear function that calculates the expected distance from the sun of the Voyager-2 spacecraft in x years after 1990 is given by:

y = 3.3x + 30.6.

<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>

A linear function is modeled by:

y = mx + b

In which:

  • m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
  • b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.

In this problem, we have that the distance increases 33 AU each 10 years, hence the slope is given by:

m = 33/10 = 3.3.

Hence:

y = 3.3x + b.

When x = 28, y = 123, hence we use it to find b as follows:

123 = 3.3(28) + b

b = 30.6.

Hence equation to calculate the expected distance from the sun of the Voyager-2 spacecraft in x years after 1990 is given by:

y = 3.3x + 30.6.

Find the value of x ?
enyata [817]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

∠E = ∠G

∠D= ∠F because it’s a parallelogram ==> D=F=2x+12 and E=G=5x

5x+2x+12=180

7x=168

X=24

Solution 2:

2*5x+2*(2x+12)=360

10x+4x+24=360

14x=360-24=336

X=336/14

X=24
