Answer:

175 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question,

(a) ΔABC and ΔEDC are similar because all the angles in ΔABC is equal to the corresponding angles in ΔEDC.

I.e, ΔABC is equiangular to ΔEDC. (AAA).

(b) From the diagram.

for similar angle, ratio of corresponding sides are equal

100/d = 4x/7x

100/d = 4/7

where d = distance across the river

solve for d

d = (100×7)/4

d = 175 ft

Which of the following is a non-linear equation?

Lana71 [14]

Answer:

iv ; xy + x/y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

A non linear equation is one in which there is no product of two different variables or the same variable

What this mean is that we have the highest polynomial power as 1 or we simply have polynomials of degree 1

Looking at the given options, we can see the product xy

What this mean is that the polynomial is of degree 2 and that makes the equation a non linear as we have a polynomial of more than 1 degree

butalik [34]

Answer:

2nd debate was 3 hours long.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that during the mayoral election,two debates were held between the candidates. The first debate lasted 1 2/3 hours. The second one was 1 4/5 times as long as the first one.

Let us find the estimate of time spent on 2nd debate.

1 2/3 hours would be approximately 2 hours. 1 4/5 times would be equal to 2 times.

$2*2=4$

Therefore, the estimated time is less 4 hours.

To find the time spent on 2nd debate, we will multiply 1 2/3 by 1 4/5.

First of all, we will convert mixed fractions into improper fractions as:

$1\frac{2}{3}=\frac{5}{3}$

$1\frac{4}{5}=\frac{9}{5}$

Now, we will multiply both fractions as:

$\frac{5}{3}\times \frac{9}{5}$

$\frac{1}{3}\times \frac{9}{1}$

$\frac{9}{3}\Rightarrow 3$

Therefore, the 2nd debate was 3 hours long.

I need help with these three problems (college algebra)

Paraphin [41]

5. After 6 hours, the concentration is halved. After 12 hours, it will be quartered. If the original concentration is 200 nmol, a quarter is 50 nmol.

14. The population doubles after 3 hours, and a day is 24 hours. That means that the original population should be multiplied by $2^{24/3}$ , or $2^8$ . 3 million times $2^8$ is 3 * 256 million, or 768 million.

15. The concentration is halved every 8 hours and the original concentration is 100 nmol. So now, how many times do you halve 100 to get to 12.5?

100/2 = 50, 50/2 = 25, 25/2 = 12.5. That's three times. 3 * 8 is 24 hours, or 1 day.

The answer is A
-6.9+6.8 is equal to -0.1, and -5.4+5.5 is 0.1. If you add those two together, you get zero.
