Answer: (4, 4.6)

=======================================

The x coordinates of the points (3,2) and (8,15) are x = 3 and x = 8 respectively. The distance between these x values is 8-3 = 5 units. So we move 5 units to the right to go from the first point to the second point.

Imagine we had 5 blocks. If 1 of them is colored red and the other four are green, then the ratio of red to green is 1:4. We have 1 part red, 4 parts green. So 1+4 = 5 total. The "red block" in the metaphor mentioned basically tells us how far to move over the total distance 5. So we move 1/5th of the way along the horizontal distance of 5.

1/5 of 5 = (1/5)*5 = 1

So we move exactly one unit along the x direction. Therefore, we add 1 to to the x coordinate of (3,2) to end up with (3+1,2) = (4,2). This isn't the final answer, but it helps get us closer.

---------------

For the y coordinates of the given points we see that the y difference is 15-2 = 13. Multiply this by 1/5 to get

(1/5)*13 = 13/5 = 2.6

We follow effectively the same steps as before, but now we're dealing with the y values this time. So we move 2.6 units in the y direction (ie move 2.6 units up)

Add 2.6 onto the y value of that last point we found to get (4,2+2.6) = (4,4.6)

So that explains why the answer is (4, 4.6)

A visual might help so I've posted one below in the attached images. In that image, the location of point T is the final answer.

A box has length 8 feet, width 4 feet, and height 3 inches. Find the volume of the box in cubic feet and in cubic inches.
coldgirl [10]

The volume of a box in cubic inches = 13,824 cubic inches

The volume of a box in cubic feet = 8 cubic feet

<h3>What is the Volume of a box?</h3>

The volume of a box = (length)(width)(height).

Give the following:

Length of the box = 8 feet

Width of the box = 4 feet

Height of the box = 3 inches

Convert the length and width to inches (1 foot = 12 inches)

Length of the box = 8 feet = (8)(12) = 96 inches

Width of the box = 4 feet = (4)(12) = 48 inches

Height of the box = 3 inches = 3/12 = 0.25 ft

The volume of a box in cubic inches = (96)(48)(3) = 13,824 cubic inches

The volume of a box in cubic feet = (8)(4)(0.25) = 8 cubic feet

How to find the diameter of a circle with the area of 1134.1?
Alex17521 [72]
Radius is half of the diameter.
So because the area of a circle is A= pi • r^2, to find the radius first, we have to change the equation to solve for r. Now it is, r= square root of A/pi. We plug in 1134.1. (Look at pic)
The diameter is 38
