Answer:

x = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

The given line y = 3 is a horizontal line with slope zero (0).

We wish to find the equation of a line that is perpendicular to y = 3. Such a line would be a vertical one. Vertical lines do not have slopes defined (due to division by zero).

Thus the general form of the equation of this new line is x = c.

This new line passes through (24, -56). Thus, x must be 24: x = 24

What is the enlargement ratio if you enlarge the figure to have a width of 16 units and length of 12 units

Fantom [35]

Answer:

The enlargement ratio is 3:4

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given

a width of 16 units and length of 12 units

so,

$W=16$

and

$L=12$

now, we can find enlargement ratio

we can use formula

enlargement ratio = (length)/(width)

$=\frac{L}{W}$

now, we can plug values

$=\frac{12}{16}$

now, we can simplify it

$=\frac{3}{4}$

So,

The enlargement ratio is 3:4

A cubical reservoir has capacity of 480000 l itters of liquid. If ifs length and breadth are 10m and 8m respectively, find the h

sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

Height = 6000 m

Step-by-step explanation:

$Volume = length \times breadth \times height \\\\480000 = 10 \times 8 \times height\\\\480000 = 80 \times height\\\\height = \frac{480000}{80} = 6000 \ m$
