The difference between 34 percent and 29 percent is :

34 - 29 = 5 percent.

60 million times 5% = 60 x 0.05 = 3 million

to check:

60 million x 34% = 20,400,000 barrels

60 million x 29% = 17,400,000 barrels

20,400,000 - 17, 400,000 = 3,000,000 barrels

There are 3 million more barrels of gasoline.

60*34%=60*0.34=20.4 million barrels
60*20%=60*0.29=17.4 million barrels
20.4-17.4=3 million more barrels

The green triangle is a dilation of the red triangle with a scale factor of s=1/3 and the center of dilation is at the point (4,

klasskru [66]

Given:

The scale factor is $s=\dfrac{1}{3}$ and the center of dilation is at the point (4,2).

Red is original figure and green is dilated figure.

To find:

The coordinates of point C' and point A.

Solution:

Rule of dilation: If a figure is dilated with a scale factor k and the center of dilation is at the point (a,b), then

$(x,y)\to (k(x-a)+a,k(y-b)+b)$

According to the given information, the scale factor is $\dfrac{1}{3}$ and the center of dilation is at (4,2).

$(x,y)\to (\dfrac{1}{3}(x-4)+4,\dfrac{1}{3}(y-2)+2)$ ...(i)

Let us assume the vertices of red triangle are A(m,n), B(10,14) and C(-2,11).

Using (i), we get

$C(-2,11)\to C'(\dfrac{1}{3}(-2-4)+4,\dfrac{1}{3}(11-2)+2)$

$C(-2,11)\to C'(\dfrac{1}{3}(-6)+4,\dfrac{1}{3}(9)+2)$

$C(-2,11)\to C'(-2+4,3+2)$

$C(-2,11)\to C'(2,5)$

Therefore, the coordinates of Point C' are C'(2,5).

We assumed that point A is A(m,n).

Using (i), we get

$A(m,n)\to A'(\dfrac{1}{3}(m-4)+4,\dfrac{1}{3}(n-2)+2)$

From the given figure it is clear that the image of point A is (8,4).

$A'(\dfrac{1}{3}(m-4)+4,\dfrac{1}{3}(n-2)+2)=A'(8,4)$

On comparing both sides, we get

$\dfrac{1}{3}(m-4)+4=8$

$\dfrac{1}{3}(m-4)=8-4$

$(m-4)=3(4)$

$m=12+4$

$m=16$

And,

$\dfrac{1}{3}(n-2)+2=4$

$\dfrac{1}{3}(n-2)=4-2$

$(n-2)=3(2)$

$n=6+2$

$n=8$

Therefore, the coordinates of point A are (16,8).

Three numbers a;b; 9; ... are in geometric sequence. If 1 is subtracted from the first term then

kenny6666 [7]

if a b 9 are in GP

b÷a = 9 ÷ b

b^2 = 9a

if a - 1 b 9 are in AP

2b = a+8

b = a+8÷2

substitute

b is equal to a + 8 by 2 in b square equal to 9 a

(a+8÷2)^2 = 9a

a^2+16a+64 = 36a

a^2 -20a +64 =0

(a-16) (a-4) =0

a= 16 or a=4

when a=16 b= 12

when a=4 b= 6

Value of a and b are given above

Use the drawing tool(s) to form the correct answer on the provided graph.

Kitty [74]

Answer:

The graph in the attached figure

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$y> \frac{1}{4}x+6$ ------>inequality A

The solution of the inequality A is the shaded area above the dashed line $y=\frac{1}{4}x+6$

The y-intercept of the dashed line is (0,6)

The x-intercept of the dashed line is (-24,0)

The slope of the dashed line is positive m=1/4

$y> 2x-1$ ------>inequality B

The solution of the inequality B is the shaded area above the dashed line $y=2x-1$

The y-intercept of the dashed line is (0,-1)

The x-intercept of the dashed line is (0.5,0)

The slope of the dashed line is positive m=2

The solution of the system of inequalities is the shaded area between the two dashed lines

using a graphing tool
