Answer=7:13

Kenny's Weight*6/7=Melvin's Weight

So, for example, if Melvin's weigh was 7...

Kenny's Weight*6/7=7
divide both sides by 6/7
Kenny Weight=6

So we can say that Melvin's weight to Kenny's weight is 7:6

The boys total weights would be...
7+6=13


So Melvin's weight over the total weight of the two boys is:

7:13

Answer:

\frac{7}{13}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x------> Melvin's weight

y------> Kenny's weight

we know that

y=\frac{6}{7}x

x+y=x+\frac{6}{7}x=\frac{13}{7}x -----> total weight of the two boys

Find the ratio of Melvin's weight to the total weight of the two boys

ratio=\frac{x}{(\frac{13}{7}x)} =\frac{7}{13}

Plz help last one ty!!!!!!!
azamat

My apologies on answering late...

Same situation as the previous problem, but this time, all you need to do is state the degree of the angle instead of just providing the angle itself.


ΔABC ≅ ΔDEF

Now, we can see that ∠C ≅ ∠F. Using this information, we can find ∠C on the first triangle ( which is 75° ).

Since ∠C ≅ ∠F,

m∠F is 75°.


Hope I caught your question in time!

Have a good one! If you need anymore help, let me know.

Terry is skiing down a steep hill. Terry's elevation, E(t), in feet after t seconds is given by E(t)=2600−50t.
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

Part 1) The equation tells us that Terry started at an elevation of 2,600 ft

Part 2) The elevation is decreasing by 50 feet each second

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

E(t)=2,600-50t

where

E(t) is Terry's elevation in feet

t is the time in seconds

Part 1) Find the E intercept of the equation

The E-intercept is the value of E when the value of t is equal to zero

so

For t=0

substitute

E(0)=2,600-50(0)

E(0)=2,600\ ft

therefore

The equation tells us that Terry started at an elevation of 2,600 ft

Part 2) Find the slope of the equation

we have

E(t)=2,600-50t

This is the equation of the line into slope intercept form

The slope m is equal to

m=-50\ ft/sec

The slope is negative, because is decreasing

therefore

The elevation is decreasing by 50 feet each second
