X/y= 5/7

x+y=372

x=5/7y

5/7y+y=372


12/7y=372

y = 372(7/12)= 217


x= 155

The given numbers are in the ratio 5:7. Let the numbers be 5x and 7x, where x is a real number.

The sum of the numbers is 5x+7x=372.

Solve for x,

12x=372\\ x= \frac{372}{12}\\ x=31.

Therefore, the numbers are,

5*31,7*31 or the numbers are 155,217.

love history [14]

Answer:

The 3 friends ate 1/5 of the pie.

Step-by-step explanation:

The total of this pie is 5/5 so if Josh and his brother ate 4/5 of the pie that means that there was 1/5 pie left so that is what the 3 friends ate.

Hope I helped :)

Answer: With that assumption, we have a square, whose area is given by the formula Asquare=a2, and two semicircles. The distance D is simply the square's diagonal. The area of each semicircle is given by the formula Asemicircle=π*r2/2. then you will get your answer!

Soap films and bubbles are colorful because the interference conditions depend on the angle of illumination (which we aren't cov
mylen [45]

Answer:

56.39 nm

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to have constructive interference total optical path difference should be an integral number of wavelengths (crest and crest should be interfered). Therefore the constructive interference condition for soap film can be written as,

2t=(m+\frac{1}{2} ).\frac{\lambda}{n}

where λ is the wavelength of light and n is the refractive index of soap film, t is the thickness of the film, and m=0,1,2 ...

Please note that here we include an additional 1/2λ phase shift due to reflection from air-soap interface, because refractive index of latter is higher.

In order to have its longest constructive reflection at the red end (700 nm)

t_1=(m+\frac{1}{2} ).\frac{\lambda}{2.n}\\ \\ t_1=\frac{1}{2} .\frac{700}{(2)*(1.33)}\\ \\ t_1=131.58\ nm

Here we take m=0.

Similarly for the constructive reflection at the blue end (400 nm)

t_2=(m+\frac{1}{2} ).\frac{\lambda}{2.n}\\ \\ t_2=\frac{1}{2} .\frac{400}{(2)*(1.33)}\\ \\ t_2=75.19\ nm

Hence the thickness difference should be

t_1-t_2=131.58-75.19=56.39 \ nm

Explain the following terms: positive slope, negative slope, x-intercept, y-intercept &lt;&lt; Read Less
garik1379 [7]
Hello there!

A positive slope is represented in a linear equation by a positive coefficient behind the x term. A positive slope means that the graph is on an increasing interval as x approaches +∞. In a more simple way, a positive slope means that the graph is going up from left to right.

A negative slope is represented in a linear equation by a negative coefficient behind the x term. A negative slope means that the graph is on a decreasing interval as x approaches +∞. In a more simple way, a negative slope means that the graph is going down from left to right.

The x intercept(s) of a graph are where the graph touches the x-axis. These are also known as the zero(s) OR solution(s) of the function.

The y intercept(s) of a graph are where the graph touches the y-axis.

I hope this helps!
Best wishes:)
