Answer:

The new length is 13.5 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we are interested in calculating the new length of the cloth she wants to use

What we know from the question is that she is making a reduction of 10% from an initial of 15 meters

Thus, the length she is to use can be calculated by first getting what 10% of 15 meters is

Mathematically, that would be ;

10/100 * 15 = 1.5 meters

We now subtract this from the total of 15 meters

= 15 meters - 1.5 meters = 13.5 meters

On the grid draw a scaled copy of quadrilateral ABCD with a scale factor 2/3
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

Attached diagram A'B'C'D'

Step-by-step explanation:

Given is a quadrilateral ABCD. It says to draw a dilated version with a scale factor 2/3.

We see that scale factor is less than 1 which means it shrinks the image to a smaller one.

To draw a scaled copy, we need to find the lengths of its sides.

To do so, we can draw the diagonals AC & BD, and they intersect at origin O(0,0) such that OA= -2, OB= 2, OC= 4, OD= -4.

Applying a scale factor of 2/3, we get OA' = -4/3, OB' = 4/3, OC' = 8/3, OD' = -8/3.

So we have attached a scaled copy A'B'C'D' of quadrilateral ABCD with a scale factor 2/3.

F(x) =x^2+6x and g(x)=7-x find (f-g)(x) and (f-g)(9)
liq [111]
(f-g)(x) = x²+6x - (7-x)
(f-g)(x) = x² + 6x - 7 + x
(f-g)(x) = x² + 7x - 7

(f-g)(9) = 9² + 7*9 - 7
(f-g)(9) = 81 + 63 - 7
(f-g)(9) = 137
