Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

7a. perimeter=3 sides added so the ratio is the same

The ratio of their perimeters is 2 : 3.

True

7b. area= sidexside so the ratio is 2x2:3x3 = 4:9

The ratio of their areas is 4 : 6.

False

7c. 14:21 =2:3

Their perimeters could be 14 cm and 21 cm.

True

7d. 6:7 <> 2:3

Two corresponding sides could be 6 in and 7 in.

False

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Two similar triangles have a scale factor of 2 : 3.

7a. The ratio of their perimeters is 2 : 3.

As the sides are 2 : 3, the perimeters which are sums of all sides will also be 2 : 3

True

7b. The ratio of their areas is 4 : 6. True or False

As the sides are 2 : 3, the areas which are the products of two sides will be in the ratio of 2*2 : 3*3 = 4 : 9

False

7c. Their perimeters could be 14 cm and 21 cm. True or False

As the perimeter ratio for 14cm and 21 cm is 14 : 21 = 2 : 3 which complies with 7a. So they could be the perimeters.

True

7d. Two corresponding sides could be 6 in and 7 in. True or False

As the corresponding sides of 6in and 7in, the ratio is 6 : 7 and is different from 2 : 3.  So they cannot be corresponding sides.

False

It take 10 road workers 5 days to complete a road repair when working 2 hours a day.Working at the same Pace, how many days will
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

The workers will need 10 days to finish the job.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question we can use a compound rule of three. We have:

10 road workers -> 5 days -> 2h/day

2 road workers ->  x days -> 5h/days

The first thing we should do is analyze how the proportions between the variables work, if they're inversely or directly proportional. If we raise the number of workers we expect that the amount of days needed to finish the job lowers and if we raise the number of hours worked in a day we expect that the workers would need less days to finish the job. So we need to invert the fractions that are inversely proportional to the amount of days worked, then we have:

2 -> 5 -> 5

10-> x -> 2

x = (5*2*10)/(2*5) = 100/10 = 10 days

Answer:

96 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem requires the use of pythagorean theorem.

she walks 24 ft south + 32 ft east + \sqrt{24^2 + 32^2} = 56 + \sqrt{1600} = 56 + 40 = 96
