Answer:

30.8

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Write the ratio for the smaller triangle as 14/10 and the ratio for the larger triangle as x/22.

2. Set the ratios equal to each other.

14/10 = x/22

3. Cross multiply and solve for x.

14 x 22 = 308

10 x x = 10x

4. Divide by 10

x = 30.8

skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer: 14%

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that Bobby guessed there were 92 jelly beans in a jar when there were actually 107. The percentage error will be:

= Difference in error / Actual value × 100

= (107 - 92) / 107 × 100

= 15/107 × 100

= 0.14 × 100

= 14%

Raymond is building a fence for a dog run. the dog run will be a rectangle with a length of 24 feet and a width that is 2/5 the
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

The perimeter of the dog run will use 67.2 feet of fencing.

Step-by-step explanation:

First find how long the width is.

24 * 2/5 = 9.6

The width of the fence is 9.6 feet.

To find the total perimeter, add double the length and width.

24 * 2 = 48

9.6 * 2 = 19.2

48 + 19.2 = 67.2

On a baseball field, the pitcher’s mound is 60.5 feet from home plate. During practice, a batter hits a ball 195 feet at an angl
worty [1.4K]

In this problem, we can imagine that all the points connect to form a triangle. The three point or vertices are located on the pitcher mount, the home plate and where the outfielder catches the ball. So in this case we are given two sides of the triangle and the angle in between the two sides.

<span>With the following conditions, we can use the cosine law to solve for the unknown 3rd side. The formula is:</span>

c^2 = a^2 + b^2 – 2 a b cos θ

Where,

a = 60.5 ft

b = 195 ft

θ = 32°

Substituting the given values:

c^2 = (60.5)^2 + (195)^2 – 2 (60.5) (195) cos 32

c^2 = 3660.25 + 38025 – 20009.7

c^2 = 21,675.56

c = 147.23 ft

<span>Therefore the outfielder throws the ball at a distance of 147.23 ft towards the home plate.</span>

one possible combination of homeroom groups is 18 groups of 10 students and 5 groups of 12 students. which equation uses the x =
vfiekz [6]

Answer: y - 5 = -5/6 (x - 18)

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form of a linear equation is written using the slope of the line and one point in the line. From part A, the slope of the line representing this situation is m = -5/6.

Since x represents the number of 10-student groups and y represents the number of 12-student groups, the combination of 18 groups of 10 students and 5 groups of 12 students is represented by the point (18,5).
