Answer: 0.5</h3>
This is equivalent to the fraction 1/2
==============================================================
Explanation:
The distance from A to B is 3 units. We can count out the spaces, or subtract the x coordinates of the two points and apply absolute value.
|A-B| = |-5-(-8)| = |-5+8| = |3| = 3
or
|B-A| = |-8-(-5)| = |-8+5| = |-3| = 3
We can say that segment AB is 3 units long.
--------------------------
The distance from A' to B' is 1.5 units because...
|A'-B'| = |-2.5-(-4)| = |-2.5+4| = |1.5| = 1.5
or
|B'-A'| = |-4-(-2.5)| = |-4+2.5| = |-1.5| = 1.5
The absolute values ensure the distance is never negative.
We can say A'B' = 1.5
---------------------------
Now divide the lengths of A'B' over AB to get the scale factor k
k = (A'B')/(AB)
k = (1.5)/(3)
k = 0.5
0.5 converts to the fraction 1/2.
The smaller rectangle A'B'C'D' has side lengths that are exactly 1/2 as long compared to the side lengths of ABCD.
Answer:
The total of the 15 tickets would be $240
Step-by-step explanation:
If you divide 48 and 3 you get 16 which is the cost for each ticket and then yuo multiply 16 by 15 and you get 240
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Solution by substitution method
3x+5y=7
and 4x-y=5
Suppose,
3x+5y=7→(1)
and 4x-y=5→(2)
Taking equation (2), we have
4x-y=5
⇒y=4x-5→(3)
Putting y=4x-5 in equation (1), we get
3x+5y=7
⇒3x+5(4x-5)=7
⇒3x+20x-25=7
⇒23x-25=7
⇒23x=7+25
⇒23x=32
⇒x=32/23
→(4)
Now, Putting x=32/23
in equation (3), we get
y=4x-5
⇒y=4(32/23)-5
⇒y=(128-115)/23
⇒y=13/23
∴y=13/23 and x=32/23
True. To solve for y you have to subtract 2 from both sides of the equation.
