Hello!

To find this out, turn 3/8 into decimal form, (0.375).

Now, turn each percent into standard form. (Also decimal form)

26% = 0.26, 27% = 0.27, 37% = 0.37, and 38% = 0.38.

The decimal closest to 0.375 is 37%.

Hope this helped! ♥♥

I used the rise/run method you rise 13 and run -11 which means on the x axis you move 11 spaces to the left and on the y axis you move 13 spaces up.

The figure is mad up of two shapes? A semicircle and a rectangle

musickatia [10]

Answer:

Your answer choice is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the semicircle is ...

s = π·r = π(4 in)

The three sides of the rectangular section total ...

9 in + 8 in + 9 in = 26 in

The sum of these lengths make up the perimeter of the figure:

P = 4π in + 26 in

P = (4π +26) in

In the figure below, lines L and M are parallel and line AB = line BC = line AC. What is the measure of the exterior angle

Kryger [21]

Answer:

120º

Step-by-step explanation:

angles of an equilateral triangle are equal so..

180 ÷ 3 = 60º

to get the exterior m⦣C

180 - interior m⦣C = exterior m⦣C

180º - 60º = 120º

Two vertical poles of lengths 11 ft and 14 ft stand 16 ft apart. A cable reaches from the top of one pole to some point on the g

Alex17521 [72]

We are given

total length of cable is 30 feet

and this cable is on hypotenuse sides of the triangles

so, we can draw triangle as

Let's assume those hypotenuse as 'a' and 'b'

so, we will have

$a+b=30$

now, we can find 'a' and 'b' from triangle

Smaller triangle:

$a=\sqrt{x^2+11^2}$

Larger triangle:

$b=\sqrt{(16-x)^2+14^2}$

we know that

$a+b=30$

so, we can plug this value

and we get

$\sqrt{x^2+11^2}+\sqrt{(16-x)^2+14^2} =30$

now, we can solve for x

$\left(\sqrt{x^2+11^2}\right)^2=\left(30-\sqrt{\left(16-x\right)^2+14^2}\right)^2$

$32x-1231=-60\sqrt{x^2-32x+452}$

$1024x^2-78784x+1515361=3600x^2-115200x+1627200$

now, we can use quadratic formula

we get

$x=\frac{-\sqrt{36416^2-1152389056}+36416}{5152},\:x=\frac{\sqrt{36416^2-1152389056}+36416}{5152}$

$x=4.510,x=9.627$

so,

The point should be located 4.510 feet , 9.627 feet from the smaller pole to use 30 feet cable............Answer
