Answer:

12 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

The radius is half the diameter, so 18*2 = 36 inches

The diameter is 36 inches.

Divide the diameter by the rate, 36/3 = 12 minutes

Your answer is 12 minutes

What is the slope of the line y - 5 = -4(x - 8)?

galben [10]

Answer:

-4

Step-by-step explanation:

This looks like point-slope form, which I find personally hideous. Let's change it to slope-intercept form to ease my conscience. (remember that slope-intercept form is y=mx+b, where m=slope and b=y-intercept!)

y - 5 = -4(x-8)

y - 5 = -4x + 32

y = -4x + 37

It's in slope-intercept form now! And -4 looks to be our m.

<u>So the slope is -4.</u>

Dilate a triangle with vertices (0,0), (0,2) and (2,0) using the scale factor k=3. What is the value of the ratio (new to origin

seropon [69]

Answer:

Part a) The ratio of the perimeters is $3$

Part b) The ratio of the areas is $9$

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A) What is the value of the ratio (new to original) of the perimeters?

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its perimeters is equal to the scale factor

Let

z-----> the scale factor

x-----> the perimeter of the new triangle

y-----> the perimeter of the original triangle

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

we have

$z=3$

substitute

$\frac{x}{y}=3$

Part B) What is the value of the ratio (new to original) of the areas?

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its areas is equal to the scale factor squared

Let

z-----> the scale factor

x-----> the area of the new triangle

y-----> the area of the original triangle

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

we have

$z=3$

substitute

$\frac{x}{y}=3^{2}$

$\frac{x}{y}=9}$
