Answer:

The answer is option C

$\frac{7}{10}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The ratio of the surface areas of two similar solids is equal to the scale factor squared and the ratio of their corresponding sides lengths is equal to the scale factor

Let

x------> surface area of the smaller solid

y--------> surface area of the larger solid

z-------> scale factor

$z^{2}=\frac{x}{y}$

substitute the values

$z^{2}=\frac{49}{100}$

$z=\frac{7}{10}$

therefore

The ratio of their corresponding sides lengths is equal to $\frac{7}{10}$

Lily's basketball team won 4/5 of their games. Lily scored points 2/3 of the games her team won. In waht fraction of her team's winning games did Lily score points?

Answer: =D. $\frac{5}{6}$

Solution:

$\frac{ 2 }{ 3 } \div \frac{ 4 }{ 5 } =$

$\frac{2}{3}\times \left(\frac{5}{4}\right)$

$\frac{2\times 5}{3\times 4}$

$\frac{10}{12}$

= $\frac{5}{6}$

I reduced the fraction $\frac{10}{12}$ into the Lowest terms by doing extracting and cancelling out the $2$

= $\frac{5}{6}$

So the answer is letter D. $\frac{5}{6}$

Darcy harvest 8 3/4 acres of corn every 5/6 of an hour. How many acres per hour?

otez555 [7]

Answer:

The answer is $10\frac{1}{2}\ per\ hour.$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Darcy harvest 8 3/4 acres of corn every 5/6 of an hour.

Now, to find the acres per hour it takes to harvest.

Darcy harvest = $8\frac{3}{4}=\frac{35}{4}\ acres.$

The time he took to harvest = $\frac{5}{6}\ hour.$

So, to get the acres per hour we put formula:

$Distance = \frac{35}{4}\ acres.$

$Time=\frac{5}{6}\ hour.$

$Speed=\frac{distance}{time}$

$Speed=\frac{\frac{35}{4}}{\frac{5}{6}}$

$Speed=\frac{35}{4}\times \frac{6}{5}$

$Speed=\frac{210}{20}$

$Speed=\frac{21}{2}$

$Speed=10\frac{1}{2}\ per\ hour.$

Therefore, the answer is $10\frac{1}{2}\ per\ hour.$

Find the height of when's, 14,494. Round the height to the nearest thousand feet

8_murik_8 [283]

14,494
To round off the height value to the nearest thousand we can use the expanded from to clarity the position of numbers which is:
10, 000 = ten thousand
4, 000 = thousands
400 = hundreds
90 = tens
4 = ones
Here we can notice than four thousand is the value where the nearest thousands is placed. Hence we can round off the number of 14, 494 into 14, 000. Notice 0-4 rounding off rules.
