Mathematics
1 answer:
levacccp [35]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

She should have multiplied one half (4)(3.5) by 5 squared.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Base of triangle=b=4 cm

Height of triangle=h=3.5 cm

Area of triangle=\frac{1}{2}bh=\frac{1}{2}(4)(3.5) cm^2

After enlarged

Scale factor=5

New base of enlarged triangle=b'=4(5) cm

Height of enlarged triangle=h'=3.5(5) cm

Area of enlarged triangle=\frac{1}{2}4(5)(3.5\times 5)=\frac{1}{2}(4)(3.5)(5^2) cm^2

But Beth wrote

Area of enlarged triangle=\frac{1}{2}(4)(3.5)(5)=35 cm^2

She should have multiplied one half (4)(3.5) by 5 squared.

Which of the following numbers could be the sides of a right triangle. A)8,15,17. B)6,8,12 C)9,11,21 D)4,13,16
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

A) 8, 15, 17.

Step-by-step explanation:

Right triangle obey the Pythagorean theorem. Thus, we choose the two smaller numbers (being the cathetus) and if after applying the P. Theorem we get the biggest of each option  (the hypotenuse) that means that those numbers could be the sides of a right triangle.

The Pythagorean theorem states that: a^2+b^2=c^2

Thus:

\sqrt{a^2+b^2}=c

Option A:

\sqrt{8^2+15^2}=17 → 17 = 17 OK!

Option B:

\sqrt{6^2+8^2}  = 10 → 10 ≠ 12 NO

Option C:

\sqrt{9^2+11^2} = [tex]\sqrt{202}[/tex] → \sqrt{202} ≠ 21 NO

Option D:

\sqrt{4^2+13^2} = \sqrt{185} → \sqrt{185} ≠ 16 NO

Need help please ..
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

x = -11

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm assuming it's an isosceles triangle so 32 + 2x = 10;

subtract 32 from both sides;

2x = -22

x = -11

Courtney is twice as old as Andre and three years older than Natalie. Courtney is half Shari's age. The difference between Shari
lesantik [10]

The question does not seem complete, but I'll represent the statement mathematically and look for their ages each. This is because the worst they can ask for is their ages.

Let C stand for Courtney's age, A for Andrei's age, N for Natalie's age and S for Shari's age. From the question we can deduce the following:

C = 2A

C = N + 3

C = S/2

S - N = C + A

S = 2C, N = C - 3 and A = C/2, therefore we have

2C - (C - 3) = C + C/2

C + 3 = C + C/2

C/2 = 3 and C = 6

A = C/2

A= 6/2

A = 3

N = C - 3

N = 6 - 3

N = 3

S = 2C

S = 2 x 6

S = 12.

C = 6, A = 3, N = 3 and S = 12
