The ratio of the perimeters of two similar triangles is 4:7. The sides of the larger triangles are 10, 12, and 13cm,

Answer:

Perimeter = 20cm

The perimeter is 35 for the larger triangle = 7:4 ratio

the perimeter for the smaller triangle = 4:7 ratio

We add up 4+7 = 11 and multiply 35 x 2 = 70.

so that the smaller triangle = 40  = 40:70

35 = 7 and 20 = 4

To find measurements of 20

we have any number over 10 combined will make the smaller sides possible,

Where hypotenuse would be under 10.

H = 6.5 Sides = 6 + 5 does not add up to 20

H = 9 Sides = 7 + 4  does have near equal spaced symmetry.

H = 9  Sides = 5 + 6  is wrong as no symmetry in measure

H = 8  Sides = 7 + 5 is wrong as no symmetry in measure

H = 7 Sides = 6 + 7  is wrong as equal sides

H = 6 sides = 6.5 + 6.5 is wrong as equal sides

H = 11 Sides = 6 + 3 is wrong has no symmetry.

The measurements must be 9cm, 7cm and 4 cm for the smaller triangle

The perimeter adds up to 20cm.

Goshia [24]

Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

Since all 5 terms are like terms they can all be combined into 1 term. For example, 3x + 8x + 5x + 4x + 19x = ?. Since they all have the term x they can be combined into 39x. That leaves 1 term.

Answer:

Triangle DEF is a right, scalene triangle. It is not isosceles, obtuse, acute, or equilateral

Step-by-step explanation:

All we know about m and n are that they are not equal to each other and they are positive. This was given in the problem. See image. Once it is graphed you can see on the graph the lengths of DE and EF. Use Pythagorean theorem to calculate DF. see image.

DE is horizontal and EF is vertical, so you can see their slopes or calculate using a formula. Calculate the slope of DF. Slope is y-y on top of a fraction and x-x on the bottom of the fraction.

Lastly, use midpoint formula to find the midpoints. Average the x's and average the y's to find the x- and y-coordinates of the midpoints. See image.

Finally, DEF is a right triangle. The graph as well as the slopes show us that DE and EF form a right angle. So DEF must be a right triangle (and not obtuse nor acute) We were told that m doesNOT equal n, so the triangle cannot have two equal sides, so it cannot be isosceles (2 equal sides) nor equilateral (3 equal sides) It has 3 different lengths of sides; that is called scalene.

Some types of algae have the potential to cause damage to river ecosystems. Suppose the accompanying data on algae colony densit
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

y=-2.95836 x +234.56159

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume that th data is this one:

x: 50, 55, 50, 79, 44, 37, 70, 45, 49

y: 152, 48, 22, 35, 43, 171, 13, 185, 25

a) Compute the equation of the least-squares regression line. (Round your numerical values to five decimal places.)For this case we need to calculate the slope with the following formula:

m=\frac{S_{xy}}{S_{xx}}

Where:

S_{xy}=\sum_{i=1}^n x_i y_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)(\sum_{i=1}^n y_i)}{n}

S_{xx}=\sum_{i=1}^n x^2_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)^2}{n}

So we can find the sums like this:

\sum_{i=1}^n x_i =50+ 55+ 50+ 79+ 44+ 37+ 70+ 45+ 49=479

\sum_{i=1}^n y_i =152+ 48+ 22+ 35+ 43+ 171+ 13+ 185+ 25=694

\sum_{i=1}^n x^2_i =50^2 + 55^2 + 50^2 + 79^2 + 44^2 + 37^2 + 70^2 + 45^2 + 49^2=26897

\sum_{i=1}^n y^2_i =152^2 + 48^2 + 22^2 + 35^2 + 43^2 + 171^2 + 13^2 + 185^2 + 25^2=93226

\sum_{i=1}^n x_i y_i =50*152+ 55*48+ 50*22+ 79*35+ 44*43+ 37*171+ 70*13+ 45*185+ 49*25=32784

With these we can find the sums:

S_{xx}=\sum_{i=1}^n x^2_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)^2}{n}=26897-\frac{479^2}{9}=1403.556

S_{xy}=\sum_{i=1}^n x_i y_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)(\sum_{i=1}^n y_i)}=32784-\frac{479*694}{9}=-4152.22

And the slope would be:

m=-\frac{-4152.222}{1403.556}=-2.95836

Nowe we can find the means for x and y like this:

\bar x= \frac{\sum x_i}{n}=\frac{479}{9}=53.222

\bar y= \frac{\sum y_i}{n}=\frac{694}{9}=77.111

And we can find the intercept using this:

b=\bar y -m \bar x=77.1111111-(-2.95836*53.22222222)=234.56159

So the line would be given by:

y=-2.95836 x +234.56159
