If the scale factor is 5/3 what is the width of the new rectangle?

Mathematics
1 answer:
vlada-n [284]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

If 24 is the width then the answer is 40 and if 30 is the width then the answer is 50

Step-by-step explanation:

We multiply both sides by the scale factor to find both sides of the new rectangle. 30 * 5/3 = 50 and 24 * 5/3 = 40, so the sides of the new rectangle are 50 and 40. It matters whether 24 or 30 are the length or width, but if 24 is the width then the answer is 40 and if 30 is the width then the answer is 50

Christel wants to know what the most popular color at her school is. She surveys students grades 1,2,3.
shutvik [7]

Answer:

It will be biased.

Step-by-step explanation:

By surveying only grades 1, 2, and 3, she is not taking a representation of the entire school. It is possible that the popular color or the color the students like would change over time and the opinion of the younger kids could be different from that of the older kids. Therefore, the sample is biased unless she surveys students from all grades.

A bag contains 105 red and blue marbles. The ratio of red to blue marbles is 2:5. How many red marbles are in the bag?
V125BC [204]

Answer:

30 red marbles

Step-by-step explanation:

If the ratio is 2 red marbles for every 5 blue marbles then you would add them together to find out how many marbles are in one group.

2+5=7

There are 7 marbles in each group.

Now we have to find out how many total groups there are by dividing the total amount of marbles by the amount in each group.

105÷7=15

There are 15 groups of 7 marbles.

Looking back at the ratio, we know that the 15 groups each have 2 red marbles and 5 blue marbles. So if there is 2 red marbles 15 times (2 marbles in 15 groups) we would multiply.

2×15=30

There are 30 red marbles.

I hope that makes sense.

What is the slope of the line passing through the points (0, −5) and (4, 2)?
liraira [26]
(0,-5) \\
x_1=0 \\ y_1=-5 \\  \\
(4,2) \\
x_2=4 \\ y_2=2 \\ \\
\hbox{the slope } = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\frac{2-(-5)}{4-0}=\frac{2+5}{4}=\frac{7}{4}

The slope is 7/4.
