Mathematics
1 answer:
omeli [17]3 years ago

Answer:  Choice D)  4 over 25 square foot

This is the same as writing the fraction 4/25 of a square foot.

============================================================

Explanation:

The base of the rectangle is 3/5 of a foot. The horizontal portion of either triangle is 1/5 of a foot.

These two facts allow us to find that the base of the parallelogram is 3/5 - 1/5 = 2/5 of a foot.

Multiply this with the height (2/5) to get

area = base*height

area = (2/5)*(2/5)

area = 4/25 .... answer is choice D

Side note: the base and height are not always the same length.

-----------

A slightly longer approach would have you follow these steps

  1. Find the area of the rectangle. Call it A.
  2. Find the area of the triangle on the left. Call it B.
  3. Find the area of the triangle on the right. Call it C. You should find that B and C are the same value.
  4. The final answer is the computation of A-B-C and you should get 4/25.

3. In ΔABC, AB = 5 inches and BC = 3 inches. Which of the choices represents all possible values for AC, in inches?
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

2< AC<8

Step-by-step explanation:

For a triangle to exits sum of two sides must always be greater than the the third side

⇒ AC<  AB+ BC =5+3=8 in

⇒AC<8 in

Also, the  difference of the two sides must be smaller than the length of third side

⇒ AC> | AB-BC| = |5-3| =2

AC> 2 in

therefore,  we can say  2< AC<8. Hence, AC can takes 3,4,5,6 values

leonid [27]

Answer:

\dfrac{\sqrt[12]{55296}}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Rationalize the denominator, then use a common root for the numerator.

\dfrac{\sqrt[4]{6}}{\sqrt[3]{2}}=\dfrac{(2\cdot 3)^{\frac{1}{4}}}{2^{\frac{1}{3}}}\\\\=\dfrac{(2\cdot 3)^{\frac{1}{4}}}{2^{\frac{1}{3}}}\cdot\dfrac{2^{\frac{2}{3}}}{2^{\frac{2}{3}}}=\dfrac{2^{\frac{1}{4}+\frac{2}{3}}3^{\frac{1}{4}}}{2}\\\\=\dfrac{2^{\frac{11}{12}}3^{\frac{3}{12}}}{2}=\dfrac{\sqrt[12]{2^{11}3^{3}}}{2}\\\\=\dfrac{\sqrt[12]{55296}}{2}

4-2(x+7)=3(x+5) can ya'll help me with the steps.
maria [59]

Answer:

x = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

4-2(x+7)=3(x+5)

Distribute

4 -2x-14 = 3x+15

Combine like terms

-2x-10 = 3x+15

Add 2x to each side

-2x-10+2x= 3x+15+2x

-10 = 5x+15

Subtract 15 from each side

-10-15 = 5x+15

-25 = 5x

Divide by 5

-25/5 = 5x/5

-5 =x
