I think your teacher may have made a typo. Refer to the diagram below. If we ignore segment ZA for now, we can see a rectangle forms with angle W = angle Y = 90. Also, we can see that WX = 6 is the horizontal base and WZ = 8 is the vertical height.
However, the side opposite WZ (which is XY) should also be 8 cm tall, and not 6 cm. If XY was 6 cm, then point Y would move to where point A is located (and the quadrilateral would be WXAZ instead of WXYZ). This new quadrilateral would not have a 90 degree angle at point Y's new location.
In other words, if we want angle Y to be 90 degrees, then side XY must be 8 units long. I have a feeling this is where the typo is, but your teacher might have been intending to say something else.
Marie has a small copy of Rene margrittes famous painting. The Schoolmasters. Her copy has dimensions of 2 inches by 1.5 inches. The scale of her copy is 1 inch:40 cm What is the dimensions of the original painting?
Every 1 inch on her copy is the same as 40 cm on the original.
You just have to multiply by 40 and convert to centimetres.
2 x 40 = 80
1.5 x 40 = 60
So the original painting is:
80cm by 60cm
Ab^x
a: initial value
b: value remaining after depreciation per year (in percentage)
x: number of years that have passed
35000(0.95)^8= 23219.7151
Round to the nearest hundredth value:
About $23219.72
Let me know if you have any questions :)
Answer:
The number of boys are 18 and the number of girls are 30.
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of number of girls to the boys = 3 : 5
Let the number of girls is g and boys is b initially.
b : g = 3 : 5
5 b = 3 g ..... (1)
Now, girls are 6 + g and boys are b - 9
So, the ratio is
(b - 9) : (6 + g) = 1 : 4
4 b - 36 = 6 + g
4 b - g = 42 .... (2)
From ( 1 ) and ( 2 )

And , g = 5 x 18/3 = 30
So, the number of boys are 18 and the number of girls are 30.
