The question is not well presented and the question also requires an attachment which is missing. See complete question below
Write the ratio of corresponding sides for the similar triangles and reduce the ratio to lowest terms.
a. 12/24 = 18/16 = ½
b. 12/18 = 16/24 = ⅔
c. 12/16 = 18/24 = ¾
d. 18/12 = 24/16 = 3/2
Answer:
c. 12/16 = 18/24 = ¾
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Two similar triangles
Required
Ratio of corresponding sides
To solve questions like this, you have to make comparisons between the similar sides of the triangle.
From the attached file,
Side PQ is similar to Side AB
And
Side QR is similar to Side BC
Also from the attached file
PQ = 12 and QR = 18
AB = 16 and BC = 24
Now, the ratio can be calculated.
Ratio = PQ/AB or QR/BC
Ratio = PQ/AB
Ratio = 12/16
Divide numerator and denominator by 4
Ratio = ¾
Or
Ratio = QR/BC
Ratio = 18/24
Divide numerator and denominator by 6
Ratio = ¾.
Combining these results
Ratio = 12/16 = 18/24 = ¾
Hence, option C is correct
Answer:
25.9 feet per second.
Step-by-step explanation:
For the first 14 seconds, the change in elevation was –65×14= –910 feet.
For the remaining 6.5 minutes, the change in elevation was –1,470×6.5 = –9,555 feet.
The overall change in elevation was –910+ –9,555= –10,465 feet.
The total number of seconds was
6.5×60=14+390=404 seconds. The Average change in elevation was −10,465÷404=25.9 feet per second.

Answer: -5, 3, 4 + 1,4-i (option 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
The roots of an equation are the x values for f(x) = 0. Therefore to find the roots of the equation, you first set the function to 0 and then solve for the values of x.
since f(x) = -(x² + 2x - 15) (x² + 8x + 17)
0 = -(x² + 2x - 15) (x² + 8x + 17)
∴ either -x² - 2x + 15 = 0 OR x² + 8x +17 = 0
when -x² - 2x + 15 = 0
-x² - 5x + 3x + 15 = 0
(x - 3 ) (-x - 5) = 0
⇒ x = 3 or x = -5
when x² + 8x +17 = 0
= 0 OR
= 0 (using the quadratic equation)
⇒ x = 4 + i or x = 4 - i
∴ the complete list of roots is -5, 3, 4 + 1,4-i (option 2)
Answer:
P(t) = 100t +2600
4100 in 2005
Step-by-step explanation:
You are given two points for (year, population) = (t, p):
(4, 3000), (8, 3400)
It is useful to use the two-point form of the equation for a line.
p = (p2 -p1)/(t2 -t1)(t -t1) +p1
p = (3400 -3000)/(8 -4)(t -4) +3000
p = 400/4(t -4) +3000
p = 100t +2600
P(t) = 100t +2600 . . . . written in functional form
In 2005, the population is predicted to be ...
P(15) = 100×15 +2600 = 4100
