Answer:

The diameter of the plate is 15 centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- All circles are similar

- In the similar circles the ratio between their circumferences is equal

 to the ratio between their diameters

* Lets solve the problem

∵ The circumference of a frying pan is 78.5 centimeters

∵ The circumference of a plate is 47.1 centimeters

∵ The frying pan and the plate are shaped circles

∴ The frying pan and the plate are similar

∴ C 1/C 2 = d 1/d 2 , where C 1 is the circumference of the frying pan ,

   C 2 is the circumference of the plate , d 1 is the diameter of the

   frying pan and d 2 is the diameter of the plate

∵ The diameter of the frying pan is 25 centimeters

∴ d 1 = 25

∵ C 1 = 78.5

∵ C 2 = 47.1

∵ C 1/C 2 = d 1/d 2

∴ 78.5/47.1 = 25/d 2

- By using cross multiplication

∴ 78.5(d 2) = (47.1)(25)

∴ 78.5(d 2) = 1177.5

- Divide both sides by 78.5

∴ d 2 = 15

∵ d 2 is the diameter of the plate

∴ The diameter of the plate is 15 centimeters

sweet [91]

Answer:

17

Step-by-step explanation:

multiply both sides of the equation by 8

k + 31 = 48

move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign

k = 48 - 31

subtract the numbers

k = 17

A. y:24=6:y<br><br> Can someone please help me
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

y = ± 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

y : 24 = 6 : y, or in fraction form

\frac{y}{24} = \frac{6}{y} ( cross- multiply )

y² = 144 ( take the square root of both sides )

y = ± \sqrt{144} = ± 12

Solve for K <br> K/2 + 1/2 =3
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

probably maybe 5

Step-by-step explanation:

it looks like you want to multiple 2 to each side to eliminate that denominator. then maybe subtract that 1 away to isolate k. it might equal 5 I'm doing it in my head
