What is the length of a segment with endpoints (2, 5) and (10, 11) *

Quadrilateral KMPT is dilated by a scale factor of 3/4 to create K'M'P'T'. The perimeter of quadrilateral KMPT is x units. What

777dan777 [17]

Answer:

B) $\frac{3}{4}$ x units

Step-by-step explanation:

Let quadrilateral KMPT be a rectangle with dimensions 12 units by 8 units. Then its perimeter would be equal to:

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2 (l + b)

where: l is the length = 12 units and b is the breadth = 8 units. So that:

Perimeter of KMPT = 2 (12 + 8)

= 40 units

Dilating KMPT by a scale factor of $\frac{3}{4}$ would create K'M'P'T' of dimensions; $\frac{3}{4}$ × 12 units by $\frac{3}{4}$ × 8 units. Thus, the dimensions of K'M'P'T' would be 9 units by 6 units.

Perimeter of K'M'P'T' = 2 (l + b)

= 2(9 + 6)

= 30 units

Comparing the perimeters of KMPT and K'M'P'T', the perimeter of K'M'P'T' would be $\frac{3}{4}$ × perimeter of KMPT.

Therefore, if the perimeter of KMPT is x units, then;

perimeter of K'M'P'T' = $\frac{3}{4}$ * x units

= $\frac{3}{4}$ x units

Why is the product of 3\5 and 250 smaller than 250?

victus00 [196]

Because you are not multiplying 250 by a number larger than 1. If you multiply 250 by a number larger than 1 the product will be larger than 250. If you multiply 250 by a number less than 1 the product will be less than 250.

Hope that helps!

A cup of coffee is cooling down such that its temperature is decreasing at a constant rate of 8% per minute. Let’s say the coffe

KengaRu [80]

Answer:

Temperature after 1 minute = 184 ° F

Step-by-step explanation:

starting temperature = 200 °F

rate of decrease = 8% per minute

Temperature lost = 8% of 200 = 8/100 × 200 = 0.08 × 200 = 16 °F

It therefore means that after 1 minute, the cup of coffee loses 16 °F,

∴ Temperature after 1 minute = (starting temperature) - (lost temperature)

= 200 - 16 = 184 °F

Find the length of UT.

otez555 [7]

Answer: A. 32

Concept:

Here, we need to know the idea of the intersecting chord theorem and segment addition postulate.

The intersecting chord theorem states that when two chords intersect at a point, P, the product of their respective partial segments is equal.

The Segment Addition Postulate states that given 2 points A and C, a third point B lies on the line segment AC if and only if the distances between the points satisfy the equation AB + BC = AC.

If you are still confused, please refer to the attachment below for a graphical explanation.

Solve:

Given information

CW = 12

TW = 14

VW = 2x + 5

UW = 2x + 2

Given expression deducted from intersecting chord theorem

CW · VW = TW · UW

Substitute values into the expression

(12) · (2x + 5) = (14) · (2x + 2)

Expand parentheses and apply the distributive property

24x + 60 = 28x + 28

Subtract 14x on both sides

24x + 60 - 24x = 28x + 28 - 24x

60 = 4x + 28

Subtract 28 on both sides

60 - 28 = 4x + 28 - 28

32 = 4x

Divide 4 on both sides

32 / 4 = 4x / 4

x = 8

Given expression deducted from the segment addition postulate

UT = UW + TW

Substitute values into the expression

UT = 2x + 2 + 14

Substitute x value into the expression

UT = 2 (8) + 2 + 14

UT = 16 + 2 + 14

Combine like terms

UT = 32

Hope this helps!! :)
