Answer:

99inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of the sides of a triangle =2:4:9.

perimeter = 165 inches,

Total ratio= 2+4+9=15

perimeter = 165

Divide the perimeter by total ratio

165/15=11

Each of the sides

= (2×11) =22

(4×11) =44

(9×11)=99

the length of the longest side= 99inches

Point Q'Q ′ Q, prime is the image of Q(0,6)Q(0,6)Q, left parenthesis, 0, comma, 6, right parenthesis under the translation (x,y)
Marina86 [1]

Q is located at (0,6)

The translation rule is (x,y) \to (x+7,y-5) which says to add 7 to the x coordinate and subtract 5 from the y coordinate. Doing that to (0,6) moves it to (7,1) which is where point Q' is located.

In other words, if you shift point Q(0,6) seven units to the right and five units down, then it arrives at Q ' (7,1)

<h3>Answer: (7, 1)</h3>

the gasoline gauge on a van initially read 1/8 full. When 15 gallons were added to the tank the gauge read 3/4 full. How many mo
Nostrana [21]
So 15 gallons of gas brought it from 1/8 full to 3/4 full.

Let's change 3/4 to the equivalent fraction 6/8  so that the denominators are the same.    (3/4 = 6/8)

So 15 gallons of gas brought it from 1/8 to 6/8   Those 15 gallons must be 5/8 of the tank's capacity   6/8 - 1/8 = 5/8

So 15 is 5/8 of what number?  (This will tell us the capacity of the whole tank)

15 = 5/8n
Divide both sides by 5/8 (remembering to multiply by the reciprocal 8/5)
15 ÷ 5/8  = 15 x  8/5  = 18

So the tank holds 24 gallons and (since it is 3/4 full or has 18 gallons) it needs 6 gallons to fill the tank.

Check - at first  1/8 full (1/8 of 24 = 3)  So we started with 3 gallons. 15 gallons added to the 3 gallons is 18 gallons.  Now the tank is 6/8 (3/4 full).  The remaining 1/4 (2/8) of a tank is the difference between 18 and it's capacity (24 gallons)  so it will need 6 gallons to fill it up..

70,000 devided by 7,000
marusya05 [52]
It would be 10 because 7000 can go into 70,000 10 times. You can you a calculator or look at the zeros take away the 3 zeros in 7000 and then 3 zeros in 70,000 making it 7 and 70 and 7 goes into 70 10 times as well. I hope this helps!

What multiplication problem does the model show? And why? please explain.
zlopas [31]
This problem shows 2/5 times 1/3 (Choice C).  You can determine this by looking at the number of complete columns that are shaded out of the total number of columns(2/5).  The look at how many complete rows are shaded out of the total number of rows shown(1/3).  The overlapping part becomes the answer to the multiplication of these 2 fractions.
