Answer: Electrons in water act in a similar way to visible light so they don't absorb or reflect most of the light. Instead they allow it to pass through relatively unimpeded, absorbing wavelengths like infrared and reflecting invisible UV

A city has 3 new houses for every 9 old houses. If there are 21 new houses in the city, how many old houses are there?
kipiarov [429]
To find your answer you would divide 21 by 3 which would be 7, once you've got 7 you would multiply it by 9 which would give you the amount of old houses that there is which would be 63.

Triangle ABC is being dilated with the center of dilation at the origin. The image of C, point C' has coordinates of (7.2, 3.6).
MAXImum [283]

General Idea:

When we are given a point P(x, y) centered at origin with a scale factor of k, then the dilated point will be given by P' (kx, ky)

Applying the concept:

In the diagram given, the coordinate of C is (6, 3). Triangle ABC is being dilated with the center of dilation at the origin. The image of C, point C' has coordinates of (7.2, 3.6).

If C (x, y) centered at origin with a scale factor of k, then the dilated point will be given by C' (kx, ky)

We know x = 6 & kx = 7.2

Substituting 6 for x in the equation kx = 7.2, we get 6k = 7.2.

Dividing 6 on both sides\frac{6k}{6}=\frac{7.2}{6}

Simplifying fractions on both sidesk=1.2

Point A from the diagram is (-3, 3)

x-coordinate of A' = kx=1.2 * -3 = -3.6

y-coordinate of A' = ky =1.2*3=3.6

Point A' is given by (-3.6, 3.6)

Conclusion:

<u>Scale factor of dilation is 1.2</u>

<u>The coordinates of point A' is (-3.6, 3.6)</u>

Given right triangle ABCABC with altitude \overline{BD}
Alex

Answer:

x = 2\sqrt{11}

Step-by-step explanation:

AD = 4

AC = 11

DC = 11 - 4 = 7

First, find BD using the right triangle altitude theorem:

BD = \sqrt{AD*DC}

Plug in the values

BD = \sqrt{4*7}

BD = 2\sqrt{7}

Use pythagorean theorem to find x:

x² = AD² + BD²

Plug in the values

x^2 = 4^2 + (2\sqrt{7})^2

x^2 = 4^2 + (2\sqrt{7})^2

x^2 = 16 + (4*7)

x^2 = 16 + 28

x^2 = 44

Take the square root of both sides

\sqrt{x^2} = \sqrt{44}

x = \sqrt{44}

x = \sqrt{4 * 11}

x = 2\sqrt{11}

An electronics store received two shipments of radios. Of the 250 radios in the first shipment, exactly 6% were damaged. In the
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

Total number of not damaged = 451

C. 451

Step-by-step explanation:

In the first shipment, 6% of the 250 radios where damaged.

Number of damaged= 6/100 * 250

Number of damaged= 6*2.5

Number of damaged= 15 radios.

Number of not damaged= 250-15

Number of not damaged = 235 radios

In the second shipment, 4% of the radios were damaged

Let the number of second shipment= y

0.04 of y where damaged

Total number of radio damaged= 24

15 + 0.04y = 24

0.04y= 24-15

0.04y = 9

Y= 9/0.04

Y= 225

Number of radio in the second shipment= 225

Number of damaged in the second shipment= 0.04*225

Number of damaged in the second shipment= 9

Number of not damaged in the second shipment= 225-9

Number of damaged in the second shipment= 216

Total number of not damaged

= 235+216

= 451

Total number of not damaged= 451
