Finding the proportion using the figure below

Mathematics
1 answer:
Serjik [45]3 years ago
5 0

The ratio of the figure is  \frac{a}{j} =\frac{c}{k} .

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

The given figure of two triangles. A smaller triangle and a larger triangle. The smaller triangle has sides measuring a and c. The second and larger triangle has sides measuring (a + b) and (c + d).

From the given diagram, we have

j = a+b and k=c+d.

So the second larger triangle has sides measuring j and k.

Step 2:

If a ratio is given, both sides of the ratio must have the corresponding side lengths of the given triangles.

On the left side of the ratio, we have the terms a and j, which are the side lengths of the smaller and larger triangles respectively.

Similarly, the right side has a ratio of c and an unknown term. The term c is the length of the smaller triangle whereas k is the length of the larger triangle.

So the ratio of the figure is  \frac{a}{j} =\frac{c}{k} .

−126 = 14k<br> MAKE SURE TO SHOW YOUR WORK PLEASE HURRY
vovangra [49]

Answer:

k = -9

Step-by-step explanation:

When a number (coefficient) is next to a letter (variable) that means you multiply. To solve you would to the opposite, which is to divide.

-126 ÷ 14 = -9

So -9 is equal to k.

Hope that helps and have a great day!

the mean score of a mathematics placement exam is 125 with a standard deviation of 12.51. those who score i the bottom 20% are r
Helga [31]
You're looking for k such that

\mathbb P(X

Transforming the standard normal distribution, you have

\mathbb P(X

where k^* is the cutoff score in terms of this new distribution. The z-score corresponding to a probability of 0.20 is approximately z=k^*=-0.8416, which means the cutoff test score is

k^*=\dfrac{k-125}{12.51}\implies k=125+12.51k^*\approx114.47

Rounding to the nearest whole point, a score of about 114 is the bare minimum requirement to not have to take the remedial course.

Write an example problem(s) for area.
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

Example 1.

A square with side lengths of 5.

5*5 = 25.

So the area would be 25 units ^2

Example 2.

A rectangle with a length of 9 and a width of 4

9*4 = 36

So the area is 36 units ^2
