Answer:

To cross multiply, multiply the numerator from one side with the denominator of the other side and put that product on one side of the equation. Do the same with the other numerator/denominator and put that on the other side. From there, solve for the unknown part.

So your ratio might look like this:

4/6=x/12

6x=12(4)

6x=48

x=8

So in this case 4/6 would equal 8/12.

What is the value for y?<br> Enter your answer in the box.<br> y=

serious [3.7K]

Answer:

$y =112$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The attached triangle

Required

Find y

The attached triangle is isosceles; so:

$x - 5=34$

Also, we have:

$y + x - 5 + 34=180$ --- angles in a triangle

Substitute: $x - 5=34$

$y + 34 + 34=180$

Collect like terms

$y =- 34 - 34+180$

$y =112$

The dimensions of a box that is a rectangular prism are 3 inches, 4 inches, and 6 inches. What is the length of the diagonal fro

Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

7.8 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:-

- The dimension of rectangular prism:

(3 x 4 x 6) inches

Find:-

What is the length of the diagonal from the point R to point S, to the nearest tenth of an inch?

Solution:-

- We will set up an origin with coordinates ( 0 , 0 , 0 ) at point R. Then the coordinates of point S would be ( 3 , 4 , 6 ).

- Then we will use the distance between two points formula in cartesian coordinate system:

Distance = $\sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2 + (z_1 - z_2)^2}$

Where the coordinates of two points ( x1 , y1 , z1 ) & ( x2 , y2 , z2 ).

- Using R( 0 , 0 , 0 ) & S( 3 , 4 , 6 ), the distance |RS| would be:

$|RS| = \sqrt{(0 - 3)^2 + (0 - 4)^2 + (0 - 6)^2}\\\\|RS| = \sqrt{ 9 + 16 + 36}\\\\|RS| = \sqrt{61} = 7.81024$

- The distance |RS| to nearest 10th of an inch is = 7.8 in
