We need to divide the number of inches by the number of hours.
Let's first convert the two numbers into fractions.

12 1/2 = 25/2

25 1/2 = 51/2

(25/2) / (51/2) = 25/2 * 2/51 = 50/102 = 25/51 = 0.49

The average rainfall was approximately 0.5 inches per hour.

Hello, i am currently having a hard time in school for a while if anybody can help me out it would be greatly appreciated
eimsori [14]

Answer:

36 m

Step-by-step explanation:

PT = x

This is True because of similar sides  \frac{8}{x} = \frac{7}{14}

solve for x to get PT and you get 16

Then to find the perimeter you would do P = PR + PR + PT = 6m + 14m + 16m = 36m

The vertex of this parabola is at (-1,3) Which of the following could be its equation
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

y - 3 = a(x + 1)^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertex equation of a vertical parabola is:

y - k = a(x - h)^2.

If the vertex is at (-1, 3), then the equation becomes:

y - 3 = a(x + 1)^2, where a is a constant.

Next time, would you please share the answer choices.  Thank you.

Can somebody work out y/7=22
Alika [10]
Sure. So we can first identify our problem- there's a denominator. There's a simple fix, multiply both sides by the denominator to clear it. That leaves us with 7 = 22*7. y = 154.

A square has a side length x and a circle has a radius (x-1). At what value of x will the two figures have the same area?
kaheart [24]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the square can be calculated using S^2 = x^2

The area of the circle is pi * r^2

= 22/7 * (x-1)^2

= 22(x-1)^2/7

So we need the value of x, that will make;

x^2 = 22(x-1)^2/7

In this kind of scenario, since we have options, it is best to test values instead of going through long calculations

Let’s try 2.29

So;

2.29^2 = 22/7(2.29-1)^2

5.2441 = 5.23

So close , but let’s see if any other value will

give us a closer value

Let’s work with 1.66

1.66^2 = 22/7(1.66-1)^2

2.7556 = 1.369

This is far from what we need

Let’s try 0.5

0.5^2 = 22/7(0.5-1)^2

Thus gives a negative answer on the right hand side, so no need trying

And lastly 1.25

1.25^2 = 22/7(1.25-1)^2

1.5625 = 0.1946

So the first test still gives the most probable answer to a decimal place accuracy
