3 0

Answer:

p = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that ∆FGH is similar to ∆DEF, it follows that the ratio of their corresponding side lengths would be equal. Therefore:

\frac{FH}{DF} = \frac{FG}{DE}

FH = 12

DF = p

FG = 24

DE = 32

Plug in the values

\frac{12}{p} = \frac{24}{32}

Cross multiply

12*32 = 24*p

384 = 24p

Divide both sides by 24

\frac{384}{24} = \frac{24p}{24}

16 = p

p = 16

What's the sum of an infinite geometric series if the first term is 156 and the common ratio is 2∕3?
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

468

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for infinite sum of geometric series is;

S_∞ = a1/(1 - r)

Where;

a1 is first term

r is common ratio

We are given;

a1 = 156

r = ⅔

Thus;

S_∞ = 156/(1 - ⅔)

S_∞ = 156/(⅓)

S_∞ = 468

Which expression is equivalent to StartRoot 120 x EndRoot?.
Irina-Kira [14]

Here for 120, the expression for the start root and end root is given  

\sqrt{120} =2\sqrt{30}

<h3>What will be the expression for start root and enroot of 120?</h3>

Here we need to find \sqrt{120}

By simplifying the given expression, we get:

120=2\times2\times2\times3\times5

120=(2^{2} )\times3\times5

by taking square roots on both sides we get

\sqrt{120} =2\sqrt{30}

Thus for 120, the expression for the start root and end root is given  \sqrt{120} =2\sqrt{30}

A company is creating a box without a top from a piece of cardboard, but cutting out square corners with side length x.
Volgvan
Answer: Choice B) The expression (10-2x)(30-2x)x represents the volume of the box

----------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------

The original width is 10 inches. The width reduces to 10-2x inches after we cut off the top two corners of the rectangle. We can think of it as taking 10 and subtracting off two copies of x like so: 10-x-x = 10-2x

Similarly, the length goes from 30 inches to 30-2x inches. This time we're taking off the top and bottom corners (focus on either side it doesn't matter). 

The height of the box is x inches due to this portion being folded up. 

Volume of box = (width)*(length)*(height)
Volume of box = (10-2x)(30-2x)x

Note: the units for the answer are in cubic inches which can be written as "in^3" (inches cubed).

This is VERY URGENT, so 50 points if you answer correctly!
mariarad [96]

Answer:

The circumference is 31.43 cm

The ratio of the circumference to the diameter is equal to 3:1

Step-by-step explanation:

Thed formular for the circumference of a circle is 2\pir or \pid

where d = diameter and r = radius

if d = 10 cm, and \pi = 3.143, then circumference of the circle can be given as

3.143*10 = 31.43 cm

The ratio of the circumference to the diameter can be given as 31.43:10

and that can be given as 3.143:1

or 3:1, for the nearest whole number

40 divided by 6 using integer division
Nitella [24]

Answer: 40 divided by 6 is equal to 6 with a remainder of 4: 40 / 6 = 6 R.

Step-by-step explanation:Start by setting it up with the divisor 6 on the left side and the dividend 40 on the right side like this:

           

   6 ⟌ 4 0  

The divisor (6) goes into the first digit of the dividend (4), 0 time(s). Therefore, put 0 on top:

       0    

   6 ⟌ 4 0  

Multiply the divisor by the result in the previous step (6 x 0 = 0) and write that answer below the dividend.

       0    

   6 ⟌ 4 0  

       0    

Subtract the result in the previous step from the first digit of the dividend (4 - 0 = 4) and write the answer below.

       0    

   6 ⟌ 4 0  

     - 0    

       4    

Move down the 2nd digit of the dividend (0) like this:

       0    

   6 ⟌ 4 0  

     - 0    

       4 0  

The divisor (6) goes into the bottom number (40), 6 time(s). Therefore, put 6 on top:

       0 6  

   6 ⟌ 4 0  

     - 0    

       4 0  

Multiply the divisor by the result in the previous step (6 x 6 = 36) and write that answer at the bottom:

       0 6  

   6 ⟌ 4 0  

     - 0    

       4 0  

      3 6  

Subtract the result in the previous step from the number written above it. (40 - 36 = 4) and write the answer at the bottom.

       0 6  

   6 ⟌ 4 0  

     - 0    

       4 0  

     - 3 6  

         4  

You are done, because there are no more digits to move down from the dividend. The answer is the top number and the remainder is the bottom number. Therefore, the answer to 40 divided by 6 calculated using Long Division is: 6
