Answer:

33m

Step-by-step explanation:

If the ratio of the new length to the old length is 11:8 (simplified ratio)

I like to set up a proportion, like this,

x/24 = 11/8, where x is the undefined new length

x*8 = 24*11 (cross multiply)

8x = 264 (multiply)

x = 33 (divide 8 by both sides)

The new length is 33m.

<em>Hope I helped! Good Luck!</em>

Answer:

33m

Step-by-step explanation:

The 8 part of the ratio refers to the old length 24m

Divide by 8 to find the value of one part of the ratio

24m ÷ 8 = 3m ← value of 1 part of the ratio, then

11 parts = 11 × 3 = 33m

Thus

33m : 24m = 11 : 8

Each number in a group of natural numbers was divided by the sum of all the numbers in that same group. What is the sum of all t
schepotkina [342]

Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us consider the case of 3 numbers: x, y, and z.  

Then  x/x+y+z + y/x+y+z + z/x+y+z = x+y+z/x+y+z = 1

The same works also for any quantity of numbers.

Use the quadratic formula to solve the equation x2+7x​
monitta

The solution of the equation x2+7x​ is 0, -7 using the quadratic formula.

Step-by-step explanation:

x2 + 7x = 0

-b  ± √ b2 - 4(ac)/ 2a

substitution,

a = 1, b = 7, c = 0

= -7  ± √(7)2 - 4(1 x 0) / 2 x 1

= - 7   ± 7 / 2

x = 0 , -7
