Answer:

<em>33.75 red counters</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the ratio of the  red counters to  blue counters as 5:4. The total ratio will be 5 + 4 = 9

If there are 27 blue counters in the bag, the total amount of counters there will be gotten using the expression;

4/9 * x = 27

x is the total counter in the bag.

4x/9 = 27

4x = 9*27

x = (9*27)/4

x = 60.75

The amount of red counters there will be

red counters = Total - blue counter

red counter = 60.75 - 27

<em>red counter = 33.75 red counters</em>

A square has side length (x+5) units. What is it’s area
daser333 [38]

The area of square is x^{2}+10 x+25 square units

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Given that square has side length (x+5) units

To find: area of square

<em><u>The area of square is given as:</u></em>

\text {Area of square }=\mathrm{a}^{2}

Where "a" is the length of side

From question, length of each side "a" = x + 5 units

Substituting the value in above formula,

\text {Area of square }=(x+5)^{2}

{\text {Expanding }(x+5)^{2} \text { using the algebraic identity: }} \\\\ {(a+b)^{2}=a^{2}+2 a b+b^{2}}\end{array}

\begin{array}{l}{\text {Area of square }=x^{2}+2(x)(5)+5^{2}} \\\\ {\text {Area of square }=x^{2}+10 x+25}\end{array}

Thus the area of square is x^{2}+10 x+25 square units

find the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the given line and passes through the given point. CD; (-2,1). C cornet p
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

  x -2y = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the line between points C and D is ...

  m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)

  m = (7 -13)/(5 -2) = -6/3 = -2

The slope of the perpendicular line is the opposite reciprocal of this: -1/(-2) = 1/2. The point-slope equation of the desired line is ...

  y -k = m(x -h) . . . . line with slope m through point (h, k)

  y -1 = 1/2(x -(-2))

We can rearrange this to standard form.

  2y -2 = x +2 . . . . . multiply by 2

  -4 = x -2y . . . . . . . subtract 2y+2

  x -2y = -4 . . . . . . standard form equation of the desired line
