The question is not complete. The complete question is;

Triangle RST is drawn inside rectangle RSNM. Point T is halfway between points M and N on the rectangle. The length of side RS is 9 in. and the length of side RM is 8 in.

1) What is the area of triangle RST?

2)What is the ratio of area of  triangle RST to area of triangle RMT?

3) What is the area of rectangle RSMN to area of triangle TSN?

Diagram is attached.

Answer:

1) 36 sq.in

2) 2:1

3) 4:1

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Area of triangle is; ½ × base × height.

For triangle RST, base = 9 in and height = 8 in

Thus, area of triangle RST = ½ × 9 × 8

= 36 sq.in

2)Area of triangle RMT = ½ × 8 × 9/2

= 18 sq.in

Ratio of area of RST to area of RMT = 36/18 = 2:1

3)Area of triangle TSN = ½ × 8 × 9/2 = 18 sq.in

Area of Rectangle RSNM = Length x width = 9 × 8 = 72 sq.in

Ratio of Area of Rectangle RSNM to Area of triangle TSN  = 72/18 = 4:1

1. (a) Use the integral test to show that P[infinity] n=1 1/n4 converges. (b) Find the 10th partial sum, s10, of the series P[in
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a) \int\limits^{\infty} _1 {\frac{1}{n^4} } \, dn\\ =\frac{n^{-3} }{-3}

Substitute limits to get

= \frac{1}{3}

Thus converges.

b) 10th partial sum =

\int\limits^{10} _1 {\frac{1}{n^4} } \, dn\\ =\frac{n^{-3} }{-3}

=\frac{-1}{3} (0.001-1)\\= 0.333

c) Z [infinity] n+1 1 /x ^4 dx ≤ s − sn ≤ Z [infinity] n 1 /x^ 4 dx, (1)

where s is the sum of P[infinity] n=1 1/n4 and sn is the nth partial sum of P[infinity] n=1 1/n4 .

Mrs. Walters drove 360 miles on 25 gallons of gas. Mr. Walters drove 480 miles on 32 gallons of gas.
Temka [501]

Answer:

Mr.Walters car can go 15 miles on one gallon of gas.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this, you first want to put it into a ratio.

480:32

Next, you want to divide.

480/32

After you divide, you get 15. That tells you that you get 15 miles off of one gallon of gas.

Write the following as an equation. Amy is 16 yrs older than Peter, whose age is 'x' yrs. 6 yrs ago, her age was twice Peter's a
azamat
Amy's current age is 16 years greater than Peter's age, so Amy's current age is equal to x + 16.

6 years ago, Amy's age was equal to twice that of Peter's age at that point, so her age was 2(x - 6).

As currently her age is x + 16 then 6 years ago her age was x + 16 - 6, which is x + 10.

As 6 years ago her age was equal to 2(x - 6) and x  + 10, we can see that x + 10 = 2(x - 6).
