Answer:
0.84 square in
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the capacity of the cable is proportional to its cross-sectional area. If a cable that is 0.3 sq in can hold 2500 lb then per square inch it can hold
2500 / 0.3 = 8333.33 lb/in
To old 7000 lb it the cross-sectional area would need to be
7000 / 8333.33 = 0.84 square in
Answer:75
Step-by-step explanation: Find the area of the triangle which is 1/2 base times height. The base is 9 while the height is 4+5+1 which is 10. 10 times 9 is 90 and half of 90 is 45. Then find the area of the rectangle which is length times width which is 5 times 3 which is 15. Then subtract 15 from 90 which gets you the answer 75.
Answer:
The answer is 2/5
Step-by-step explanation:
10/15 simplified is 2/5
<span>I think any of those estimates are correct since we don't have a value for the width and length so acquiring the actual measurement its impossible. All possible answers are correctly written in square units.</span>
This appears to be just an expression we are simplifying, not an equation we are solving. I THINK you are saying that the expression looks like this:

If you rationalize the denominator, you would get this expression:

which, after simplifying, looks like this:

and that's as simple as I can see that one getting. You can't factor anything out of the denominator to cancel with the numerator, so I think you're as simple as you can get there!
