Mathematics

Answer:

  • Sand in small bag = 2x = 2(7.5) = 15 kg
  • Sand in medium bag = 3x = 3(7.5) = 22.5 kg
  • Sand in a large bag = 7x = 7(7.5) = 52.5 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Total weight = 90 kg

As 90 kg has been distributed in 3 bags in the ratio 2:3:7

Let the small bag contains = 2x

Let the medium bag contains = 3x

Let the big bag contains = 7x

so the equation becomes

2x+3x+7x = 90

12x = 90

x = 90/12

x = 7.5

Thus,

  • Sand in small bag = 2x = 2(7.5) = 15 kg
  • Sand in medium bag = 3x = 3(7.5) = 22.5 kg
  • Sand in a large bag = 7x = 7(7.5) = 52.5 kg

<u>SOLUTION CHECK</u>

15+22.5+52.5=90 kg

how much material was used in the manufacture of 24000 celluloid dice,if each dice has an edge 1/4 inches?
Dovator [93]
<span>The volume of each celluloid die is (.25 x .25 x .25) = 0.015625 cubic inch.

To manufacture 24,000 of them, you need to start with <u>at least</u>

(24,000) x (0.015625) = <u>375 cubic inches</u>.

I don't know how celluloid is sold, so you should also keep in mind that
375 cubic inches = about 207.8 fluid ounces, or about 6.5 quarts.

I'm sure a bit more than that was used in the manufacture, since
there's always some wasted, spilled, or trimmed off of the edges. </span>

Given rectangles LMNO and PQRS, which statement explains a way to determine if the two figures are similar?
allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Definition:</u> Two rectangles are similar when they have corresponding sides proportional are proportional by dilation.

For example, rectangles with sides 3 cm, 4cm and 6 cm, 8 cm are similar, but rectangles with sides 3 cm, 4 cm and 6 cm, 10 cm are nor similar.

Since all angles in rectangle are always right angles, then options A and C are false (in terms of your question).

Option D is false too, because translation doesn't change the length, and in this case two rectangles are congruent.

Option B is true according to definition.
