Pentagons STUVW and XYZAB are similar with XY=32, YZ=36, ST= 4c + 2 and TU= 5c + 2, find the length of ST

Mathematics

MakcuM [25]3 years ago

Answer:

ST = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

If the pentagons are similar, the ratio between a pair of sides of one pentagon is the same ratio for the similar pair of sides of the second pentagon, so we have that:

XY / YZ = ST / TU

32 / 36 = (4c + 2) / (5c + 2)

8 / 9 = (4c + 2) / (5c + 2)

8*(5c + 2) = 9*(4c + 2)

40c + 16 = 36c + 18

4c = 2

c = 0.5

So the length of ST is:

ST = 4c + 2 = 4*0.5 + 2 = 4

Solve 5n – 7p + 3n = 25p for n.
saul85 [17]

5n – 7p + 3n = 25p

Combine like terms

8n - 7p = 25p

Add (7p) to both sides

8n - 7p + 7p = 25p + 7p

Simplifying

8n = 32p

Divide both sides by 8

8n / 8 = 32p / 8

Simplifying

n = 4p

2 point) what is the height of a d-heap that contains n elements? the height should be a function of n and
belka [17]
Assuming a d-heap means the order of the tree representing the heap is d.
Most of the computer applications use binary trees, so they are 2-heaps.

A heap is a complete tree where each level is filled (complete) except the last one (leaves) which may or may not be filled.

The height of the heap is the number of levels.  Hence the height of a binary tree is Ceiling(log_2(n)), for example, for 48 elements, log_2(48)=5.58.
Ceiling(5.58)=6.  Thus a binary tree of 6 levels contains from 2^5+1=33 to 2^6=64 elements, and 48 is one of the possibilities.  So the height of a binary-heap with 48 elements is 6.

Similarly, for a d-heap, the height is ceiling(log_d(n)).
