Answer:

8 plates

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason for this is because 15 and 9 are both divisible by 3. 15 divided by 3 is 5 and 9 divided by 3 is 3. 5+3= 8. Therefore, you will need 8 plates.

¿por que en los mapas se respeta la misma escala? Ayudenme por favor esta es otra pregunta ¿qué pasaría si una parte del mapa se
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

Ok, supón que conoces exactamente tu posición en un mapa, y también sabes a donde quieres ir.

Podes ver en ese mapa la distancia entre tu posición y el lugar al que quieres ir, ahora, si la escala del mapa es conocida (por ejemplo 1cm = 1km) y constante, entonces vos podes medir la cantidad de centímetros entre tu posición y tu destino, y multiplicar ese numero por la escala, de esta forma conociendo la distancia real entre tu posición y tu destino.

Ahora, si la escala no es constante, entonces es imposible saber exactamente la distancia entre nuestra posición y nuestro destino, entonces este mapa no sirve realmente para ubicarnos/guiarnos, entonces no funciona como un mapa.

En el caso de que una parte este en una escala y otra parte en otra, en la primera parte un centímetro en el mapa equivaldría a una distancia X en la realidad, y en la otra zona un centímetro en el mapa equivaldría a una distancia Y en la realidad.

Donde X es diferente de Y, ahora, cuando queremos calcular la distancia entre dos lugares tendríamos que saber exactamente en que lugar se da el cambio de escala (para saber si usamos X o Y). Lo que hace que leer este mapa sea bastante mas difícil que leer un mapa normal.

Given right triangle ABC with altitude BD drawn to hypotenuse AC. If AC =16 and DC=5 what is the length of BC in the simplest ra
Nana76 [90]

The length of BC is 4 \sqrt{5}.

Solution:

Given ABC is a right triangle.

AC is the hypotenuse and BD is the altitude.

AB and BC are legs of the triangle ABC.

AC = 16 and DC = 5

<u>Leg rule of geometric mean theorem:</u>

$\frac{\text { hypotenuse }}{\text { leg }}=\frac{\text { leg }}{\text { part }}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{AC}{BC}=\frac{BC}{DC}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{16}{x}=\frac{x}{5}$

Do cross multiplication.

\Rightarrow  16\times 5 = x\times x

\Rightarrow  80= x^2

\Rightarrow  16\times 5= x^2

Taking square root on both sides.

\Rightarrow  \sqrt{16\times 5} = \sqrt{x^2}

\Rightarrow  \sqrt{4^2\times 5} = \sqrt{x^2}

square and square roots get canceled, we get

\Rightarrow  4\sqrt{ 5} = x

The length of BC is 4 \sqrt{5}.

We know that
Inverse Variation is a<span> relationship between two variables in which the product is a constant
so
let
x------> a pitch of a musical instrument
y------> </span><span>the wavelength
x*y=k

find the value of k

for x=</span><span>220 hertz   y=3 ft
</span><span>x*y=k
220*3=k
k=660

</span>for x=165 hertz   y=4 ft
x*y=k
165*4=660
k=660<span>

the answer part a) is
</span><span>the type of variation between pitch and wavelength is an inverse variation
</span>
part b) <span>What is the pitch when the wavelength is 5 feet?
x=?
y=5 ft
k=660
x*y=k------> solve for x
x=k/y----------> x=660/5-----> x=132 hertz

the answer Part b) is

A student performed the following steps to find the solution to the equation
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

step 2 : x + 3 = 0 and x - 5 = 0 ← correct

step 3

x = 3 and x = - 5 ← error made here with signs, correct statement should be

x + 3 = 0 ⇒ x = - 3

x - 5 = 0 ⇒ x = 5
