Answer:

20 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Two Given polygons are similar :

Ratio of corresponding sides =. 1/6

Perimeter of larger polygon = 120 yards

Perimeter of smaller = p

Since they are similar, and yhe ratio of their sides Given, we use the relation :

(Smaller perimeter / larger perimeter) = (smaller side / larger side)

(p / 120) = (1 /6)

Cross multiply :

6p = 120

p = 120/6

p = 20 yards

Rico bought 3 adult tickets and 5 child tickets for a total of $50.
aliina [53]

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 5y = 50

x + 5y = 31

use substitution

x = 31-5y

3(31-5y) +5y = 50

93 -15y + 5y = 50

93 - 10y = 50

--10y = -43

y = 43/10 = $4.30 for kids

now solve for x

x + 5(4.30) = 31

x + 21.5 = 31

x = $9.5 for adults

5x+20y=4<br> x=-4y+1<br><br> Solve for x/y
Andrews [41]

Hi there!


Looks like a lot of work is going on here.


Let's start by solving this equation for the x.


5x + 20y = 4


Step 1) Add -20y to both sides.


5x + 20y + - 20y = 4 - 20y 5x = -20y + 4


Step 2) Divide both sides by 5.


\frac{5x}{5}  = \frac{-20y + 4}{5}


x = -4y +  \frac{4}{5}


Final Answer:


x = -4y +  \frac{4}{5}


Now, let's solve for y.


Step 1) Add -5x to both sides.


5x + 20y + - 5x = 4 + - 5x 20y = -5x + 4


Step 2) Divide both sides by 20.


\frac{20y}{20} =  \frac{-5x + 4}{20}


y =  \frac{-1}{4} x +  \frac{1}{5}


Final Answer:


y =  \frac{-1}{4} x +  \frac{1}{5}


Hope this helps! :D


Hint - When you have two variables in an equation, and you want to solve for one, the other will end up in your answer. :)

A student scored in the 60th percentile on her math exam. What does this student's score mean in relation to those of the other
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

The correct option is;

c. Her score was better than those of 60% of all test takers

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentile Score is the score of an exam or test candidate with regard to the relative performance of the other persons that took part in the exam or test.

The percentile score is calculated by converting candidates scores into a scale consisting of the scores of all candidates and ranging from 0 to 100

A 60th percentile score means that the student performed better than 60% of all the candidates of the test and 40% of the test takers scored the same as or better than the student.
