Answer:

80 cm / 180 cm / 120 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

the smallest common multiple of 3, 4 and 2 is 12.

so, to be able to truly compare these fractions we need to bring all denominators to .../12.

1/3 = 4/12

3/4 = 9/12

1/2 = 6/12

in total we have therefore 19 (4+9+6) equally large parts of the ribbon that are then combined :

4 parts for the first segment.

9 parts for the second segment

6 parts for the third segment.

so, one part is

380 cm / 19 = 20 cm

therefore the first segment of the ribbon is

4×20 = 80 cm long

the second segment

9×20 = 180 cm long

the third segment

6×20 = 120 cm long

Find the roots of the following factored quadratic equation.<br> y= (2x-9) (7x-4)

Marina86 [1]

Answer:

x = 4.5, 4/7

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the roots of a factored equation you need to set the y value at 0, that way you can solve for x. Once you solve for x you get two quantities, which can be graphed. These two quantities are where the x intercepts are.

Answer:

see attached

Step-by-step explanation:

Read the values from the graph in the usual way: find the x-coordinate, then locate the point on the graph and find its y-coordinate.

You find the y-coordinate by following the horizontal line to the y-axis, where the numbers are.

Neil drives at an average speed of 60 miles/hour to reach his destination 480 miles away. On the way back, he decides to increas

daser333 [38]

Answer:

480/(x+60) ≤ 7

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the relations ...

time = distance/speed

distance = speed×time

speed = distance/time

to write the required inequality any of several ways.

Since the problem is posed in terms of time (7 hours) and an increase in speed (x), we can write the time inequality as ...

480/(60+x) ≤ 7

Multiplying this by the denominator gives us a distance inequality:

7(60+x) ≥ 480 . . . . . . at his desired speed, Neil will go no less than 480 miles in 7 hours

Or, we can write an inequality for the increase in speed directly:

480/7 -60 ≤ x . . . . . . x is at least the difference between the speed of 480 miles in 7 hours and the speed of 60 miles per hour

___

Any of the above inequalities will give the desired value of x.

Answer:

Surface area of the wood to be painted = ( $r^{2}$ + r $\sqrt{h^{2} + r^{2} }$ ) $\pi$ - 16 $\pi$

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface area of a cone is given as the sum of the surface area and the area of its base.

i.e Surface area = $\pi$ $r^{2}$ + $\pi$ Lr

where: L is the length of its slant height and r is the radius.

Applying the Pythagoras theorem,

L = $\sqrt{h^{2} + r^{2} }$

Thus,

Surface area = $\pi$ r (r + $\sqrt{h^{2} + r^{2} }$ )

The given cylindrical hole has a radius of 4 cm and depth 2 cm.

The area of one of its circular surfaces = $\pi$ $r^{2}$

= $\pi$ × $(4)^{2}$

= 16 $\pi$ $cm^{2}$

The surface area of the piece of wood to be painted = surface area of cone - area of cylindrical circular surface.

Surface area of the wood to be painted = $\pi$ r (r + $\sqrt{h^{2} + r^{2} }$ ) - 16 $\pi$
