Answer:

7.5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

5 miles in 80 km

Total distance = 120 km

120- 80= 40 km

80 km = 5miles

1 km = 5miles/ 80km

120 km = 5/80 * 120 km = 7.5 miles

This is called unitary method. First we find 1 km by dividing the miles with the number of km and then multiply the number of km to find the total number of miles.

Total distance = 120 km

120- 80= 40 km

if there are 5 miles in 80 km then there will be half of the miles in half of the km . So there will be 2.5 miles in 40 km .

So the total number of miles would be

40+80 km= 5+ 2.5 miles

120 km = 7.5 miles

The diagonals of a parallelogram ABCD intersect at O.find ar(AOB),if ar(ABCD)is 44cm^2
prisoha [69]

Answer:

11\text{ cm}^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: In a parallelogram ABCD, diagonals intersect at O and ar(ABCD) is 44 \text{cm}^2.

We need to find the area of triangle AOB.

We know that each diagonal divide the parallelogram in two equal parts and diagonals bisect each other.

It means both diagonals divide the parallelogram in 4 equal parts.

ar(AOB)=\dfrac{1}{4}\times ar(ABCD)

ar(AOB)=\dfrac{1}{4}\times 44

ar(AOB)=11

Hence, the values of ar(AOB) is 11\text{ cm}^2.

Which table represents exponential growth? A 2-column table has 4 rows. The first column is labeled x with entries 1, 2, 3, 4. T
Papessa [141]

Answer:

Table 2

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the tables:

<u>Table 1:</u>

x: 1  2  3  4

y: 2  4  6  8

<u>Table 2:</u>

x: 1  2  3  4

y: 2  4  8  16

<u>Table 3:</u>

x: 1  2  3  4

y: 2  4  7  11

<u>Table 4:</u>

x: 1  2  3  4

y: 2  4  6  10

An exponential growth data set will show a common ratio between y values. Let's look at each of the ratios from each table.

<u>Table 1:</u>

8/6 = 4/3

6/4 = 3/2

Already, we can see that 4/3 ≠ 3/2, which means that this doesn't have a common ratio. So Table 1 is wrong.

<u>Table 2:</u>

16/8 = 2

8/4 = 2

4/2 = 2

The common ratio here is 2, so we know this is correct.

<u>Table 3:</u>

11/7 = 1.57

7/4 = 1.75

Again, we can see that 1/57 ≠ 1.75, so this is wrong.

<u>Table 4:</u>

10/6 = 1.67

6/4 = 1.5

Again, there is no common ratio here, so this is wrong.

The answer is thus Table 2.
