ou originally draw a design for an art contest on a 2 in. x 5 in. card. The second phase of the contest requires the drawing to

be transferred to an 8.5 in x 11 in. standard sheet of paper and utilize as much of the space on the paper as possible. You determine that the largest size one of the dimensions of your drawing can be is 10.5 in. What is the length of the other dimension if the two drawings are similar? Type your exact answer in the blank without the units, and round to the nearest tenths

Since the largest size of one of the dimensions is 10.5, it has to correspond with the long side of the card, the 5 in. side. To find the proportion of the sides, divide 10.5 by 5. Then, multiply the other side of the card by the quotient.

10.5/5 = 2.1

2.1 * 2 = 4.2

4.2in is the shorter side. Your question asks to round to the nearest tenths, the smallest place value of the answer is already the tenths place.

The cost of a TV has increased by 15% to £437. work out the original price
marin [14]
Original price=x
x+15% of £437=£437
We can suggest this equation:
x+0.15x=437
1.15x=437
x=437/1.15
x=380

Answer: the original price was £380

Find all polar coordinates of point P where P = ordered pair 6 comma negative pi divided by 5.
Allushta [10]

Answer:

P(6,-π/6) = (6, -π/6 + 2nπ) and P(-6,-π/6) = (-6, -π/6 + (2n+1)π)

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find all polar coordinates of

P = (6,\frac{-\pi }{6})

The polar coordinates of any point can be reresented by (r,Ф)

where

(r,Ф) = (r, Ф+2nπ) where n is any integer and r is positive

and

(r,Ф) = (-r, Ф+(2n+1)π) where n is any integer and r is negative.

So, in the question given, r = 6 and Ф = -π/6

So, Polar coordinates will be:

P(6,-π/6) = (6, -π/6 + 2nπ) where where n is any integer and r is positive

and

P(-6,-π/6) = (-6, -π/6 + (2n+1)π) where n is any integer and r is negative.

If an experiment with a random outcome is repeated a large number of​ times, the empirical probability of an event is likely to
MAVERICK [17]
Answer: The correct answer is the Law of Large Numbers

Imagine flipping a coin. There is a 50% likelihood that you would get tails. However, it doesn't happen all the time. If you flipped it just a few times, you could get all tails and have 100% tails.

However, if you did the experiment a lot of times (a large number), you almost certainly wouldn't get all tails. You would get close to 50%. That is the main point of the law.

The more trials you do, the more likely you will get close to the theoretical value.
