Answer:

7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given information that the two triangles are similar and we want to work out the length of "t" . Since these 2 triangles are similar, it means that a scale factor is used to enlarge the sides, we can work out the scale by dividing QP by LJ and RP by KJ so,

QP ÷ JK = 25 ÷ 5 = 5

RP ÷ JL = 22.5 ÷ 4.5 = 5

So we can see the scale factor is 5, now all we need to do is multiply the scale factor by 1.5 to find the value of t

1.5 × 5 = 7.5

The value of t is 7.5

The straight line is perpendicular to y = -3x + 4.

Therefore, the gradient of the straight line must be 3.

The equation of the straight line is y = 3x + 2.

A box contains 2 plain pencils and 2 pens. A second box contains 3 color pencils and 5 crayons. One item from each box is chosen
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

50% pen first box and 62.5% crayon from second box

Step-by-step explanation:

The first box contains 4 items, 2 of each. This means there are \frac{2}{4} pens. This gives you a \frac{2}{4} chance of picking out a pen. This can be written as 50%.

The second box contains 8 items, 3 color pencils and 5 crayons. This means \frac{5}{8} of the contents are crayons, meaning you have a \frac{5}{8} or 62.5% chance of picking a crayon.

*For working out the percentages, you should convert the fraction to a decimal and then multiply that by 100.

**This content involves fractions, decimals and percentages, as well as basic probability, which you may want to revise. I'm always happy to help!

A gym instructor has a total of 60 hand weight in her studio. Some of the hand weights are 3 pound weights and the rest are 5 po
Elden [556K]

Answer:

  • 35 5-lb weights
  • 25 3-lb weights

Step-by-step explanation:

Let t and f represent the numbers of three- and five-pound weights. The problem statement tells us ...

  f + t = 60

  f - t = 10

Adding these two equations, we get ...

  (f +t) +(f -t) = (60) +(10)

  2f = 70 . . . . . eliminate parentheses

  f = 35 . . . . . . divide by 2

She has 35 5-lb weights, and 25 3-lb weights.
