Answer:

The fraction of the trip completed is ³/₈

The fraction of the trip completed in decimal form is 0.375

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

total trip to be completed by Tora, = 320 miles

distance completed by Tora, = 120 miles

The fraction of the race that Tora has completed is given as;

= \frac{distance \ completed}{total \ distance} \\\\= \frac{120}{320}\\\\= \frac{12}{32} \ (divide \ both \ numerator \ and \ denominator \ by \ 4)\\\\= \frac{3}{8}

As a decimal the fraction is written as;

\frac{3}{8} = 0.375

A fishing lodge wants to build a new boat ramp. The slope of the ramp must be 8° to the horizontal. The total height of the bank
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

The length of the sloping section of the ramp is 20.12 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

the total height of the bank, h = 2.8 m

The slope of the ramp must be 8° to the horizontal, i.e, θ = 8°

Let the length of the sloping section = L

let the horizontal distance between the height of the bank and sloping section = b

Thus, h, L and b forms three sides of a right angled-triangle, with L as the hypotenuse side, h  (height of the triangle) as the opposite side and b  (base of the triangle) as the adjacent side.

We determine L by applying the following formula;

Sinθ = opposite / hypotenuse

Sin θ = h / L

L = h / Sin θ

L = 2.8 / Sin 8

L = 2.8 / 0.13917

L = 20.12 m

Therefore, the length of the sloping section of the ramp is 20.12 m

Y=-×+1 and y=2×+4 how many solutions when graphed
dedylja [7]

Answer:

One solution (-1,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since these two linear equations have different slopes, different y-intercepts, and are indeed linear, these equations will only have one crossing when graphed, and hence one solution.

To find that solution, we can simply set the equations equal to each other.

y = -x + 1

y = 2x + 4

-x + 1 = 2x + 4

-3 = 3x

-1 = x

Now plug that value back into one of the equations:

y = -x + 1

y = -(-1) + 1

y = 2

So now you know the crossing for these two equations occurs at (-1,2).

Cheers.

MONA LISA A visitor to the Louvre Museum in Paris wants to sketch a drawing of the Mona Lisa, a famous painting. The original pa
nydimaria [60]
You need to find a scale factor of dilation (probably contraction) to make the replica.

Given that the units of the original painting are centimeters and the units of the sheet of paper are in inches, you have to convert one of the units.

I choose to covert inches to centimeters.

To do that, use the conversion factor 1 = 2.54 cm / inch

=> 8.5 in * [2.54 cm/in] = 21.59 cm

=> 11 in * [2.54 cm/in] = 27.94 cm

Now determine the scale factor to convert 77 cm to 27.94 cm and 53 cm to 21.59 cm. That just require use of division operation:

77 / 27.94 = 2.76

53 / 21.59 = 2.45

Then the higher scale factor is the relevant one, and you have to reduce the original painting by a factor of (1 / 2.76) which will lead to fit in the sheet of paper.

The cost y (in dollars) to rent a lane at the bowling alley is proportional to the number x of hours that you rent the lane. It
Alika [10]

Answer:

a) y = 9x

b) For every increase of 1 hour the price to rent the lane increases by $9.

c) $27

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Since it costs $18 for 2 hours we can infer that for every 1 hour it costs $9.

So, the equation would look like this:

y = 9x

b) In this context, for every increase of 1 hour the price to rent the lane increases by $9. Like the question gave us, the price for 2 hours cost $18.

c) Plug 3 into the equation:

y = 9(3)

y = 27

Therefore, it costs $27 to rent the lane for 3 hours.
