This is the concept of algebra: The answers to the questions will be as follows:
1. What is AD/AM in the simplest form:
AD/AB is the ratio of AD to AB. This will calculated as follows:
AD=9 units
AB=3 units
thus:
9/3=3
Hence, we conclude that the answer is D. 3
2] What is slope of BE/ slope of AE in simplest form:
slope=(Δy-axis)/(Δx-axis)
slope of AE
=(5-0)/(4-0)
=5/4
slope BE
slope=(5-0)/(4-3)=5/1=5
therefore the ratio of the two slope will be:
BE/AE
=5/(5/4)
=4
The answer is A.4
3. What is the value of x in the proportion (x-1)/5=(4x+2)/35?
To get the value of x we solve the above proportion:
(x-1)/5=(4x+2)/35
35(x-1)=5(4x+2)
35x-35=20x+10
putting like terms together we get:
35x-20x=10+35
15x=45
dividing both sides by 15
x=45/15
x=3
Hence the answer is B.3
4. What is the value of x in the proportion:
(x+1)/(x+3)=15/21
to get the value of x we solve the above:
first we begin by cross multiplying the proportion, this will give us:
21(x+1)=15(x+3)
21x+21=15x+45
putting like terms together we get:
21x-15x=45-21
6x=24
dividing both sides by 6 we get
x=4
∴ x=4
5. The lengths of the sides of a triangle are in extended ratio 3:10:12. The perimeter is 400 cm. What is the length of the longest side in cm.
solution:
Here we introduce the variable x such that the perimeter is:
3x+10x+12x=400
25x=400
x=400/25
x=16
The longest side will be:
12×16=192 cm
Answer:
the bus is travelling faster
It is travelling faster by 22-18= 4 meters per second
Step-by-step explanation:
if you divid the meters per second you get 22 for the car and 18 for the bus
it's going faster by 4 meters per second\
Given:
wild turkey ; 12 in the first hour and cumulative number increases by 40% per hour
white-tail deer ; 18 in the first hour and 10 deer each hour after that.
wild turkery: 12 * (1.40)^n-1 ; n is the number of hour
white-tail deer: 18 + 10^n-1 ; n is the number of hour
n wild turkey white-tail deer
1 12 18
2 17 28
3 24 38
4 33 48
5 46 58
6 65 68
7 90 78
It would be hour 7 after sunrise that the cumulative count of the turkeys first exceed the cumulative count of the deer.

Answer:
6.83 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the height of the original pyramid be represented by h. Then the cut off top has a height of (h -2). The scale factor for the area is the square of the scale factor for height, so we have ...
(height ratio)^2 = 1/2
((h -2)/h)^2 = 1/2
(h -2)√2 = h . . . . . . square root; multiply by h√2
h(√2 -1) = 2√2 . . . . add 2√2 -h
h = (2√2)/(√2 -1) ≈ 6.8284 . . . units
The altitude of the original pyramid is about 6.83 units.
