AABC - ADEF Find the value of x

Mathematics
2 answers:
Nitella [24]3 years ago

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

ΔABC ~ ΔDEF

AB/DE = BC/EF

x/3 = 8/6

Cross multiply.

6 × x = 3 × 8

6x = 24

Divide both sides by 6.

(6x)/6 = 24/6

x = 4

Answer:

\boxed{x = 4}

Step-by-step explanation:

If ΔABC ~ ΔDEF

Then their sides must be proportional such that:

=> \frac{x}{3} = \frac{8}{6}

Cross Multiplying

=> x * 6 = 8*3

=> 6x = 24

Dividing both sides by 6

=> x = 4

You are making a scale model of the solar system. The radius of Earth is 6378 kilometers. The radius of the Sun is 695,500 kilom
jeka94

Express the radius of the Sun as a proportion to radius of Earth:

695500/6378 = 109.04...

Now if a baseball would represent Earth, the model for Sun would have to be about 110 times larger than a baseball. A baseball is about 3" in diameter, so the model for Sun would have to be about 330" (or 27 feet) in diameter.

The answer should be no it is not reasonable to use baseball as a model for the Earth because the Sun would need to be about the size of a hot air balloon!

If the radius of the circle was doubled what effect would it have on the area
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If the radius of a circle is doubled, the area of the circle will be quadrupled and the circumference will also be doubled. This makes sense because the area of a circle is directly proportional to the square of the radius of the circle (if the radius of a circle is increased x times, its area will be increased to x^2 times the original area), whereas the circumference is proportional to the size of the radius (if the radius of a circle is increased x times, its circumference will increase x times).

Do any of you know how to easily and properly convert a mixed fraction to a decimal?​
arlik [135]

Answer:

Here's a 2 step conversion.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Convert the fraction to a decimal: Divide the numerator by the denominator

2. Add this decimal number to the whole number part of the mixed number

A mixed number is a whole number plus a fraction. To find the decimal form of a fraction just divide the numerator by the denominator using a calculator or long division. Then add the decimal number to the whole number.

Example: Convert the mixed number 7 1/4 to a decimal

Convert the fraction to a decimal: Divide 1 by 4

1 ÷ 4 = 0.25

Add 0.25 to the whole number 7:

7 + 0.25 = 7.25

Answer:

Each base angle is 81°

Step-by-step explanation:

A pennant is in the shape of an isosceles triangle and the vertex angle is 18°.

An iscosceles triangle has two equal sides and two equal angles.

So assuming the base angles measure b° each;

b° + b° + 18° = 180° (angles in a triangle add up to 180°)

2b° = 180° - 18° = 162°

b = 162° ÷ 2 = 81°

So each base angle is 81°
