(ANSWER FOR FREE BRAINPOINTS!) (FIRST TO ANSWER GETS BAINLIEST) The local park has a rectangular swimming pool that measures 40

yards in length and 15 yards in width. The community is planning to build a smaller swimming pool that is similar to the current pool. 40 yards, 15 yards, 24 yards. If the length of the new smaller pool will be 24 yards, what will be the width of the smaller pool in yards?

Answer:

9 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Since both pools are similar, therefore the ratio of their length and width would be equal. That is:

Length of the current swimming pool : length of the new swimming pool = width of the current swimming pool : width of the new swimming pool

Thus, we can set up a proportion as shown below:

Let the width of the new swimming pool be x.

40 : 24 = 15 : x

\frac{40}{24} = \frac{15}{x}

Cross multiply

40*x = 15*24

40x = 360

Divide both sides by 40

x = \frac{360}{40}

x = 9

The width of the new swimming that is smaller would be 9 yards.

Answer:

  TRUE

Step-by-step explanation:

A quadratic equation can be found that will go through any three distinct points that ...

  • satisfy the requirements for a function
  • are not on the same line

Find the slope of this graph, thanks
Anarel [89]

Slope  =  (change in 'y') / (change in 'x')

If you find two points where the line goes through the corners of boxes,
then count up the 'y' boxes and the 'x' boxes between those two points,
you'll find that the line rises 3 y-boxes for each x-box.

The slope of the line is  3 .

One option is missing...<br><br> D) y = 11x + 5 <br><br> Please help :(
netineya [11]
The only correct answer would be D, all you do it plug in the x and y values, such as (0,5)

A) 5 = (0 + 11) - 5
     5 = 11 - 5
     5 = 6

B) 5 = 11(0) - 5
     5 = 6

C) 0 = 11(5) + 5
     0 = 55 + 5
     0 = 60

D) 5 = 11(0) + 5
     5 = 5

PLZ HELP, GIVING BRAINLIEST!!

The area of triangle B is 10.5 square units.

The area of triangle C is 10 square units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

The area of a triangle is half the product of its base length and height.

The base is the lower end of the triangle and its length is called base length.

The length from the base to the highest point on the triangle is the height.

Step 2:

For triangle B, the base extends for a length of 7 units and the height is 3 units.

The area of triangle B = \frac{1}{2} (b)(h) =  \frac{1}{2} (7)(3) = \frac{21}{2} = 10.5,

So the area of triangle B is 10.5 square units.

Step 3:

For triangle C, the base extends for a length of 5 units and the height is 4 units.

The area of triangle C = \frac{1}{2} (b)(h) =  \frac{1}{2} (5)(4) = \frac{20}{2} = 10,

So the area of triangle C is 10 square units.
