Analyze the diagram below and complete the instructions that follow.

The diagram shows the width and height of a table. Mr. Howell wants to build a table with the same ratio of width and height as

just olya [345]

Based on the diagram and the ratio of width and height in it, the width that Mr. Howell should make his table is 48 inches .

<h3>How wide should Mr. Howell's table be?</h3>

The width of the table in the diagram is 12 cm and the height is 6cm.

This means that the ratio of width to height is:

12 : 6

2 : 1

As Mr. Howell wants his table to be 24 inches high, the width of the table would be:

2 : 1

x : 24

Cross-multiply to get:

x = 48 inches

Factor this polynomial completely.

azamat

Answer:

(x-4) (x-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

foil [first, outside, inside, last]

x^2 -8x = 16

(x-4) (x-4) = x^2 -4x -4x +16 = x^2 -8x +16

For each pair of points below, think about the line that joins them. For which pairs is the line parallel to the y-axis? Circle

gogolik [260]

Answer:

Option B.

Step-by-step explanation:

If two lines are parallel then their slopes are always same.

Following this rule we can find the slope by the given pairs of coordinates of the options.

If the slope of the line is same as the slope of y axis then the line passing through these points will be parallel to the y axis.

Slope of y - axis = ∞

Option A). Slope = $\frac{y-y'}{x-x'}$

= $\frac{24-8.5}{3.22-3.2}$

= $\frac{15.5}{0.02}$

= 775

Therefore, line passing through points (3.2, 8.5) and (3.22, 24) is not parallel to y axis.

Option B). Slope of the line passing through $(\frac{40}{3},\frac{14}{3})$ and $(\frac{40}{3},7)$ will be

= $\frac{\frac{14}{3}-7}{\frac{40}{3}-\frac{40}{3}}$

= ∞

Therefore, line passing though these points is parallel to the y axis.

Option C). Slope of the line passing through $(2.9,5.4)$ and (7.2, 5.4)

= $\frac{5.4-5.4}{7.2-2.9}$

= 0

Therefore, slope of this line is not equal to the slope of y axis.

Option B. is the answer.

Ellie's Bakery is having a grand opening sale. All pastries are being discounted by 25%. Let x represent the regular price of an

Sindrei [870]

a) The expression to find the sale price of pastry = 0.75 x

b) The regular price of the pastry bought by Kimberly = $2.70

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 :

Let x be the regular price of the pastry in the bakery

Percentage of discount = 25%

Amount of discount = 0.25 x

The expression to find the sale price of pastry = x - 0.25 x = 0.75 x

Step 2 :

Sale price of the pastry bought by Kimberly = $2.03 = 0.75 x

<u>To find the regular price</u>

0.75x = 2.03

x = $\frac{2.03}{0.75}$ = 2.70

Regular price of the pastry bought by Kimberly = $2.70

Step 3 :

Answer :

a) The expression to find the sale price of pastry = 0.75 x

b) The regular price of the pastry bought by Kimberly = $2.70
