AfilCa [17]3 years ago

Answer:

13.  108 inches

14.  not similar (sides have different ratios)

15.  68

Step-by-step explanation:

13. You have two relationships between length and width:

  2L + 2W = 336 . . . . . the perimeter is 336 inches

  L/W = 9/5 . . . . . . . . . .the ratio of length to width is 9/5

Multiplying the second equation by 5/9W, we get

  5/9L = W

Now we can substitute that into the first equation to get ...

  2L +2(5/9L) = 336

Multiplying by 9 gives us ...

  18L +10L = 3024

And dividing by 28 gives ...

  3024/28 = L = 108 . . . . inches

___

14. Shortest to longest, the ratios of sides are 6 : 8 : 9 and 2 : 4 : 5. There is no value that will multiply the first ratio to give the second ratio. For example, multiplying by 1/3 gives ...

  2 : 2 2/3 : 3 . . . . <u>not</u> 2 : 4 : 5

Similar triangles have the same side ratios. These do not, so they are not similar triangles.

__

15. MP is a midsegment of triangle JKL and parallel to base JL. A midsegment is half the length of the parallel base. Then JL is twice as long as MP. JL is 68 units long.

Jason inherited a piece of land from his great-uncle. Owners in the area claim that there is a 45% chance that the land has oil.
inn [45]
P ( A ) = 0.45  - probability that the land has oil,
P ( B ) = 0.8   - probability that the test predicts it
P ( A ∩ B ) = P ( A ) · P ( B ) = 0.45 · 0.8  = 0.36
Answer: The probability that the land has oil and the test predicts it is 36 %.

A shoe store uses a 38% markup to price their items. The store buys the
Lorico [155]

Answer:

They will Markup the price by $19.76.

Step-by-step explanation:

Markup percent = 38%

Wholesale Price = $52

Markup price can be calculated by simply multiplying the wholesale price by 38% or 0.38.

so

Markup price = 38% of 52

                      = 38/100 × 52

                       = 0.38 × 52

                       = $19.76

Therefore, they will Markup the price by $19.76.

Mr. Mole left his burrow and started digging his way down at a constant rate.
Art [367]

Mr. Mole's burrow was at an altitude of 6 meters below the ground.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

We need to determine the distance that Mr. Mole covers in a single minute.

To do that we divide the difference in values of altitude by the difference in the time periods.

For the first case, Mr. Mole had traveled -18 meters in 5 minutes.

We also have, he traveled -25.2 meters in 8 minutes.

Step 2:

The distance he covered in 1 minute = \frac{-25.2-(-18)}{8-5} = \frac{-25.2+18}{3},

\frac{-25.2+18}{3} = \frac{-7.2}{3} = -2.4.

So with every minute, Mr. Mole digs down an additional 2.4 meters below the surface.

To determine where Mr. Mole's burrow is we subtract the distance traveled in 5 minutes from -18.

The altitude of Mr. Mole's burrow = -18 - 5(-2.4) = -18+12 = -6.

So Mr. Mole's burrow was at an altitude of 6 meters below the ground i.e. -6 meters.

Use the identity (x+y)(x−y)=x2−y2 to find the difference of two numbers if the sum of the numbers is 12 and the difference of th
Natalka [10]

Answer:

The difference of two numbers using identity (x+y)(x-y)=x^2-y^2 is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:  The sum of the numbers is 12 and the difference of the squares of the numbers is 48.

To find the difference of two numbers using identity (x+y)(x-y)=x^2-y^2

Let the two numbers be a and b, then

Given that the sum of the numbers is 12

that is a + b = 12 .........(1)

Also, given the difference of the squares of the numbers is 48.

that is a^2-b^2=48     ..........(2)

Using given identity  (x+y)(x-y)=x^2-y^2

We have (a+b)(a-b)=a^2-b^2

Substitute the known values, we have,

12(a-b)=48

Divide both side 12 , we have,

(a-b)=4

Thus, the difference of two numbers using identity (x+y)(x-y)=x^2-y^2 is 4.
