Suppose you were told that the company built the fence in 4 hours and that they completed 1.6 mile of the fence each hour. How w

Solution  :

It is given that the time required by a company to built the fencing = 4 hours

The length of fenced completed in 1 hour = 1.6 mile

Now by using the double number line to find the length of the fence, we would :

-- We have to draw two parallel straight lines.

-- Let the 1st line represents the time measured in hours and the 2nd line represents the distance or length measured in miles.

-- Mark four marks of equal spacing in both the line so that each mark represents 1 hour in the 1st line and each mark in the 2nd line represents the corresponding lengths.

-- Now in hour, they completed 1.6 miles, therefore from the double number line, we can see that in 4 hours, they completed 4.6 miles of fencing.

Hence the length is 4.6 miles.

Which figure could be the result of dilating this rectangle with a scale factor between 0 and 1? On a coordinate plane, a rectan
Leviafan [203]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (a)  On a coordinate plane, a rectangle has points (0, 0), (0, 1), (2, 0), (2, 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Every point coordinate of the dilated figure will be smaller by the same factor.

Looking at the original (0, 3) coordinate, we find that possible answer choices include ...

  A (0, 1) has a scale factor of 1/3

  B (0, 4) has a scale factor greater than 1

  C (0, 1) has a scale factor of 1/3

  D (0, 2) has a scale factor of 2/3

__

Looking at the rest of the points in the answer selections, we find that the scale factors in choices C and D are not consistent from one point to another (or even within the same point). Those choices must be rejected.

In selection A, the image points are listed out of order, tending to confuse the issue. However, A is the correct choice.

The area of a rectangular flower bed is 24 square feet. The perimeter of the same flower bed is 22 feet. What are the dimensions
Vesna [10]

Answer:

3 ft by 8 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We were given the area as 24 square feet which means that

L×w= 24....eqn(1)

We were given the perimeter as 22 square feet which means that

22= 2(L +w).......eqn(2)

If we divide both cause by 2 in eqn(2) we have

11= L+ w .....eqn(3)

W= 11-L.........eqn(4)

Substitute eqn(4 into eqn(1)

L× (11-L)=24

-L^2 +11L-24=0

If we factorize

(L-8)(L-3)

L=3 or 8

From eqn4)

W=11-L

At L=3

W=11-3=8

Hence, the dimension is 3 ft by 8 ft
