The ratio of length to width is 3/2.  Let's set up equations of ratios using first the 25 cm length of the paper and then the 20 cm width:

 3      25 cm
--- = ----------
 2           x

Solving for x, 3x = 50 cm, and x =16 2/3 cm.  This is possible, since 16 2/3 is less than the paper width 20 cm.

 3       20 cm
--- = -----------
 2         x

Solving for x:  3x = 40 cm; x = 40/3 cm, or  x= 13 1/3 cm.  This is possible, but does not make maximum use of the 20 by 30 cm paper.

Answer:  the largest flag Jake can draw on the paper given is 20 cm (length) by 16 2/3 cm.

Bryce intended to swim directly across a stream that is 99 meters wide. But the current caused him to arrive at the opposite sho
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

101 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The direct path across the stream and perpendicular to both sides of the stream is one leg of a right triangle. The 20 meter distance on the arriving side of the stream is another leg of the right triangle. The path he actually took is the hypotenuse of the right triangle.

leg 1 = 99 m

leg 2 = 20 m

hypotenuse = ?

We have a right triangle, and we know the lengths of the two legs. We need to find the length of the hypotenuse, so we can use the Pythagorean theorem.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

99^2 + 20^2 = c^2

9801 + 400 = c^2

c^2 = 10201

c = sqrt(10201) = 101

Answer: 101 meters

Find the equation of a line that passes through the point (2,-5) and is perpendicular to the y-axis. Do not put any spaces in yo
Allushta [10]

Answer:

<em>y=-5</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Equation of the line</u>

Lines can be expressed in several forms. The slope-intercept form of the line is:

y = mx + b

Where m is the slope of the line and m is the y-intercept.

If the line is perpendicular to the y-axis, then it's a horizontal line. Horizontal lines have slope m=0, thus, the equation is:

y = b

To find the value of b, just substitute the given point:

-5=b

The equation of the line is:

y=-5

What is 19-h-h=-13 find h
hram777 [196]
First subtract h from h to get - 2h 
Then add 19 to both sides leaving you with 
-2h = -32 
Then divide by -2 on both sides 
H = 16
