This is simply    15   1/4    ÷   2/3

For there to be maximum lots, it should be divided by 2/3.

It should not be greater than 2/3 

<span>This is simply    15   1/4    ÷   2/3
</span>
(15*4 +1)/4   ÷  2/3

61/4  ×  3/2 = 183/8 = 22.875

Maximum number of lots created = 22

Well, if you want the maximum number of splits, then you want to make
each individual split as small as possible. 
That's 2/3 acre.  How many will that give you ?

                  (15 and 1/4) divided by (2/3)

             =      (15.25)  /  (0.666...)  =  22.875 pieces .

The maximum number of 2/3-acre lots you can sell is 22 lots.

Then you have 58.3% of an acre of land left over that you can't sell
because it's less than 2/3 acre.  Sadly, that 58.3% of an acre is just
about the size of the lot that I've been living n for almost 30 years. 
You really know how to rub it in, dontcha !

myrzilka [38]

The measure of hypotenuse using the ruler is 25.5 cm and using the formula is 23.43 cm, they are not same, and formula can be used to in the real life problems as well.

<h3>What is a right-angle triangle?</h3>

It is a triangle in which one of the angles is 90 degrees and the other two are sharp angles. The sides of a right-angled triangle are known as the hypotenuse, perpendicular, and base.

The question is incomplete:

The complete question is:

Present a picture of an object (TV, Ipad Screen, Book Cover) that contains a right angle (it could be something in nature or that is man-made). Use a ruler or measuring tape to measure the two sides that make the right angle and measure the distance from the end of one side to the end of the other side (hypotenuse). Draw a diagram of the object including the measurements. Use your leg measurements on your diagram to calculate a theoretical hypotenuse. (Show all steps).

  • Does the hypotenuse that measured with a ruler/measuring tape equal the hypotenuse you calculated?
  • Why do you think they are or are not exactly the same?
  • What did you learn from developing this presentation?

We are assuming the length of one side x:

x = 18 cm

Length of other side y:

y = 15 cm

And length of the hypotenuse z:

z = 23.5 cm

From the Pythagoras theorem:

z² = x² + y²

z² = 18² + 15²

z² = 549

z = √54 = 23.43 cm

The measure of hypotenuse is:

Using ruler: x = 25.5 cm

Using formula: x = 23.43 cm

They are not equal due to the reading in the ruler.

The formula can be used to in the real life problems as well.

Thus, the measure of hypotenuse using the ruler is 25.5 cm and using the formula is 23.43 cm, they are not same, and formula can be used to in the real life problems as well.

Statements that are true for a cylinder with radius r and height h.
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

Only the second and third statements are correct:

Doubling <em>r</em> quadruples the volume.

Doubling <em>h</em> doubles the volume.

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cylinder is given by:

\displaystyle V=\pi r^2h

We can go through each statement and examine its validity.

Statement 1)

If the radius is doubled, our new radius is now 2<em>r</em>. Hence, our volume is:

\displaystyle V=\pi (2r)^2h=4\pi r^2h

So, compared to the old volume, the new volume is quadrupled the original volume.

Statement 1 is not correct.

Statement 2)

Using the previous reasonsing, Statement 2 is correct.

Statement 3)

If the height is doubled, our new height is now 2<em>h</em>. Hence, our volume is:

V=\pi r^2(2h)=2\pi r^2h

So, compared to the old volume, the new volume has been doubled.

Statement 3 is correct.

Statement 4)

Statement 4 is not correct using the previous reasonsing.

Statement 5)

Doubling the radius results in 2<em>r</em> and doubling the height results in 2<em>h</em>. Hence, the new volume is:

V=\pi (2r)^2(2h)=\pi (4r^2)(2h)=8\pi r^2h

So, compared to the old volume, the new volume is increased by eight-fold.

Statement 5 is not correct.
