Answer: 8/7
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 0.075, 0.75%, 3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
3/4 and 0.75% are the same value but expressed in different ways. 0.0075 is less than them.
Answer:
I am having a hard time reading the letters, so I hope this makes sense. I think that the numbers for the top triangles is given is 6 and 3. That means that the scale factor from the little to the big is 2 and from the big to the little is 1/2. It is the same for the bottom triangles.
Step-by-step explanation:
If the triangles are similar the scale factors will be the same for all three corresponding sides of the triangle. You find the two sides that are corresponding and ask yourself what do I have to multiple the side of of triangle to get the new triangle.
If one side is 3 and the other triangles side is 6. I am asking myself what do I have to multiple 3 by to get 6? 2. That is my scale factor.
3x = 6
x = 2
The scale factors are always reciprocals of each other. If I go the other direction I can write the equation
6x = 3 and when I divide both sides by 6, I get a scale factor of 1/2.
The bottom triangles:
2.5 x = 5
x = 2
and
5x = 2.5
x =1/2
Answer:
the area of the hexagon is approx. 187.1 in²
Step-by-step explanation:
Picture this regular polygon as being a hexagon made up of six equilateral triangles of side 12 in. We find the area of one such triangle and then multiply that by 6 to obtain the total area of the hexagon.
One such equilateral triangle has three sides all of length 12 in, and all the interior angles are 60°. The height of one such triangle is
h = (12 in)sin 60°, or
√3
h = (12 in) -------- = 6√3 in
2
So, with base 12 in and height 6√3 in, the area of one such equilateral triangle is
A = (1/2)(12 in)(6√3 in) = 36√3 in²
and the total area of the hexagon is 6(36)√3 in², or approx. 187.1 in²
x represents the number of lawns weeded by Gwen and y represents the number of dogs walked by Fabio.
Gwen charges $12 each time she weeds a yard and Fabio charges $9 each time he walks a dog.
So, for x number of weeds, Gwen earned 12x and for y number of dogs walked, Fabio earned 9y.
They need at least $510 to purchase the new gaming station.
Therefore,
12x + 9y ≥ 510
Also, the number of dog walks that Fabio has scheduled should not be more than twice the number of yards Gwen has scheduled to weed.
Therefore,
y ≤ 2x
Also, Fabio will walk at least 25 dogs.
Therefore,
y ≥ 25
Hence, the constraints are:
12x + 9y ≥ 510
y ≤ 2x
y ≥ 25
