Figure T is similar to figure W which answer is closest to the length of side XY

Mathematics

As they are similar triangles, one is simply going to be bigger than the other, meaning that if triangle T’s side QS is = 9 and triangle W’s corresponding side ZX is =6.5. When dividing 9 by 6.5, it is obvious that triangle W is 0.72 smaller than triangle T. All you then have to do to calculate length of side XY is times side QR on triangle T -cause it’s the corresponding side of these two triangles- by 0.72, and you’ll have your answer of XY= 8.125 :)

Help ASAP can u explain a little too? (pls help if u don’t know it don’t answer pls) Thank You:)

Since they are similar, the dimensions are in the same ratio. L1 = 5, L2 = 15, so they are in a 3:1 ratio. So if V1 = 60, then W1×H1 = 60/5 = 12
W2 must also be 3×W1 and H2 3×H1, and
3×3 = 9. So take 12×9 (W×H1×9) ×15 (L2) = V2
V2 = 12×9×15 = 1620 cm^3

Let me know the right answer when you find out!

Which one of the following equations represents a circle with its center of origin?
babymother [125]

Answer:

  • A) x² + y² = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>The equation of the circle:</u>

  • (x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

The center is (h, k)

<u>Wen the center is the origin we have, h = 0, k = 0:</u>

  • x² + y² = r²

The only equation in same format is the first one

A tortoise is walking in the desert. It walks for 4.8 meters at a speed of 3 meters per minute. For how many minutes does it wal
kirill [66]
It is normally smart to write out a diagram of some sort to help you visualize the situation. I made one for this situation, although it might now suit you as well as it would me. 

The idea behind this problem is to make you understand rates. Rates being the same thing as a slope. If you have learned about that already then that will help a lot, but if you haven't then that's fine. 

So we have 4.8m and we traveled at a speed of 3 meters per 1 minute. A rate you are probably pretty familiar with is mph. Which is Miles per Hour. Or if you don't live in the U.S. Kmph. Which is Kilometers per Hour. 

What you do to solve these type of problems is you take the given value and you use the rate to get the value you want.

The easiest way to do this is to make sure the signs (Meters) "cancel" out.  

4.8m * (1min / 3m) 

To cancel something out you need to have it over itself. Here are a few examples: 

3/3 = 1
4/4 = 1 
100,000/100,000 = 1
598/598 = 1

In the case of units, such as meters. They go *poof* from the problem. 
So we have this problem: 
(4.8m*1 minute) / 3m = ? minutes

4.8/3 = 1.6


If you want the answer in fractional form... here is how you do it: (I won't explain it because you most likely won't need to do this, but if you want to know how to do it then just ask)

4(8/10) 
4(4/5)
(24/5)/3 
(24/5) * (1/3) 

24/15
8/5 is our final fractional answer!

What is the slope and y intercept of this line? y = -4x + 7
amid [387]
Slope is -4 and y intercept is 7. Whatever the number in front of the X is, that will always be your slope. Anything added or subtracted after the x, that’s your y intercept! Hope I helped.

Approximate the area under the
taurus [48]

Split up the interval [0, 3] into 3 equally spaced subintervals of length \Delta x = \frac{3-0}3 = 1. So we have the partition

[0, 1] U [1, 2] U [2, 3]

The left endpoint of the i-th subinterval is

\ell_i = i - 1

where i\in\{1,2,3\}.

Then the area is given by the definite integral and approximated by the left-hand Riemann sum

\displaystyle \int_0^3 f(x) \, dx \approx \sum_{i=1}^3 f(\ell_i) \Delta x \\\\ ~~~~~~~~~~ = \sum_{i=1}^3 (i-1)^3 \\\\ ~~~~~~~~~~ = \sum_{i=0}^2 i^3 \\\\ ~~~~~~~~~~ = 0^3 + 1^3 + 2^3 = \boxed{9}
