Answer:

3 of 10 grid squares making up the whole will be colored.

Step-by-step explanation:

1/10 is one of ten equal parts. 3/10 is three of those ten equal parts. Essentially, the fraction 3/10 means "three out of ten".

_____

If the whole is divided into more than 10 parts, 3/10 will be 3 out of every 10. So if there are 20 parts, for example (2 tens), the 3/10 will be 6 of those parts (3 of each of the two tens).

are any two regular polygons similar. The area of the smaller figure is about 390 cm^2. choose the best estimate of the area of

galben [10]

Answer:

The best estimate of the area of the larger figure is $693\ cm^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the scale factor

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is equal to the scale factor

Let

z----> the scale factor

x-----> the corresponding side of the larger figure

y-----> the corresponding side of the smaller figure

$z=\frac{x}{y}$

we have

$x=12\ cm$

$y=9\ cm$

substitute

$z=\frac{12}{9}=\frac{4}{3}$ -----> the scale factor

step 2

Find the area of the larger figure

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its areas is equal to the scale factor squared

Let

z----> the scale factor

x-----> the area of the larger figure

y-----> the area of the smaller figure

$z^{2}=\frac{x}{y}$

we have

$z=\frac{4}{3}$

$y=390\ cm^{2}$

substitute and solve for x

$(\frac{4}{3})^{2}=\frac{x}{390}$

$(\frac{16}{9})=\frac{x}{390}$

$x=390*16/9=693.33\ cm^{2}$

If x and y are positive real numbers, which expression is equivalent to the expression below?

Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

The correct answer is C. 21x³y

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's simplify the product, this way:

(49x²y)^1/2 * (27x⁶y^3/2)^1/3

Let's recall that x^1/2 = √x and x^1/3 = ∛x

√(49x²y) * ∛(27x⁶y^3/2)

7x √y * 3x² √y

Let's recall that √y * √y = √y² = y

21x³y

The correct answer is C. 21x³y
