To solve this exercise you must follow the proccedure shown below:

 1. You have the the lengths of the sides of equilateral triangle which is inscribed inside a similar triangle are 10 cm. Therefore, the area is:

 A1=bxh/2
 A1=10 cmx10 cm/2
 A1=50 cm²

 2. <span>The larger triangle is dilated with a scale factor of 3 from the smaller triangle. Using the ratio of the area:

 (1/3)</span>²<span>=50/A2
 1/9=50/A2
 A2=450 cm</span>²
<span>
 3. The area of the shaded region is:

 At=A2-A1
 At=400 cm</span>²

OLEGan [10]
Well it have to be D because 32 and 20 can not go into 64 to 40 because 32 times 64 is 2048 and 64 times 20 is 1280 and if it was 40 times 32 and 20 it will still be higher. I HAVE FAITH IN YOU.

Why do some merchants, particularly smaller businesses, set a minimum purchase of $10 for any credit card transaction, or simply
amm1812
Because accepting credit cards cost the business small transaction fees. These businesses already have a paper thin profit margin, meaning if you buy less than $10 and use credit card, their profit is little to non-existent.

***45 POINTS*** PLEASE EXPLAIN WELL AND SHOW WORK USED TO FIND THE ANSWERS

Okay so basically the axis of symmetry is the h (technically where x is on the graph)nvalue so for the first one the answer is -4 for the second one because in vertex form the value of h  (x-h) is in the parenthesis. For the second one you will have to turn the equation from standard to vertex. First step is to factor out the first two terms' coefficients. if you factor out two the equation turns into 2(x^2-8x) +15 The next step is you take 8 and divide it by 2 and then square it which equals 16. You add this term into the parenthesis so you can factor out like a quadratic. The equation turns into 2(x^2-8x+16) +15 to balance out the equation you have to subtract the term that you put in the parenthesis outside the parenthesis. Since 16 is the parenthesis you need to multiply it by 2, so your equation will turn into y=2(x^2-8x+16) -17 then factor out like a regular polynomial and get y=2(x-4)^2 -17 now that it's in vertex form you can see your answer is positive 4. For the third problem just look where the vertex is and see the x coordinate. The answer is 1.

Find the sum of odd numbers which are divisible by 3 and lie between 1 and 500
Zolol [24]

Answer:

20,667.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an arithmetic series:

3 + 9 + 15 + 21 + 27+ ...........+ 495

First term = 3 and common difference = 6.

Number of terms = ( 495 - 3 )/6 + 1

= 83.

So Sn = n/2(a1 + l)      where a1 = first term and l = last term

S83 = 83/2(3 + 495)

= 41.5 * 498

= 20,667.
