Answer: 26 cm × 4 cm or

36 cm × 2.89 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram of the board is shown in the attached photo

Width of the rectangular board is given as 26 cm

The length of a rectangular board is 10 cm longer than its with. This means that

Length of rectangular board = 26 +10 = 36 cm.

Area of rectangular board = length × width. It becomes

36 × 26 = 936cm^2

The board is cut into 9 equal pieces. This means that the area of each piece would be the area of the board divided by 9. It becomes

936 /9 = 104cm^2

The dimensions of the piece would be

Since area of each piece is 104 cm^2 and the width of the bigger board still corresponds to one side of each piece, the other side of each piece will be 104 /26 = 4 cm

Also, the board could have been cut along the length such that one side of the cut piece corresponds to the length of the original board (36 cm)

and the other side becomes

104 /36 = 2.89 cm

The possible dimensions are

26 cm × 4 cm or

36 cm × 2.89 cm

A roller coaster starts with the cars being pulled up a ramp. The mass of the cars is estimated by the function m(p) = 175p + 1,
KiRa [710]

Answer:

E(p)=51,450p+346,920

Step-by-step explanation:

The function

m(p) = 175p + 1,180

gives the mass of the car as a function of the number of passengers in it.

And the function

E(m) = 9.8m*h

gives the potential energy of the car as a function of the car's mass.

Now if the height of the ramp is 30 meters, we have

E(m) =9.8m*(30)

E(m) =294m

And to find the potential energy as a function of the number of passengers, we just substitute m(p) into E(m) to get:

E(m(p))=294(175p+1180)

\boxed{ E(p)=51,450p+346,920}

which gives the potential energy as a function of the number of passengers.

Proving That All Circles Are Similar give: cicrcle x with radius r and circile y with radius s prove: circle x is similar to cir
sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

Two shapes are similar when they have the same shape while their sizes may be the same or different

Therefore, two similar shapes are shapes that have a relationship such that the dimensions of one of the shapes can be obtained from the dimensions of the other shape by multiplying by a scale factor

All circles have the same shape and are defined by their center and radius

Given circle with center at 'x' and radius 'r' and circle with center 'y' and radius 's', then there exist a scale factor a = s/r such that we have;

r × a = s

Where a = s/r, we get;

r × s/r = s

We can therefore, obtain a circle with with the same size as the circle with center 'y' and radius 's' by multiplying the radius of the circle with center at 'x' and radius 'r' by a

Therefore the circle with center at 'x' and radius 'r' is similar to the circle with center 'y' and radius 's'
