What is the length of AC?

Mathematics
1 answer:
NeX [460]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

B) 4 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

the big triangle CAB and small triangle CED are simular (given)

this means the ratio between their corresponding sides will be the same.

find corresponding sides with alternate interior angle theorem

m CDE= m CBA

vertical angles theorem

m ACB = m DCE

therefore, AC corresponds to CE

find ratio of sides

7 miles = 36960 feet

36960/ corresponding side 21 ft

36960/ 21= 1780 ft

multiply by 1780 to get from small side to big side

small side CE = 12 ft

12*1780

=21120 ft =AC (in ft)

convert to miles (ft to miles is ft/5280)

21120/5280

=4 miles

hope this helps

If a sprinkler waters 1/15 of a lawn in 1/5 of an hour, how much time will it take to water the entire lawn?
GaryK [48]

Answer:

3 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this we can first find out how many minutes is 1/5th of an hour which is: 12 mins.

Now we know it will take 15 sets of 12 minutes to water the full lawn so we can multiply 15*12 to get our answer.

15*12 = 180

Now we divide 180 (minutes) by 60 (minutes) to find out how many hours that is:

180/60 = 3 hours

Hope this helped! If possible please leave a thanks so I can continue to help out others :),

Find the maximum and minimum values by evaluating the equation
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

min = -9

max =3

Step-by-step explanation:

C = x-3y

x ≥0

x≤3

y≥0

y≤3

The minimum will be be when x is smallest and y is at its max

x =0 and y = 3

C = 0 - 3(3)

C = 0-9 = -9

The minimum is -9

The maximum occurs when x is largest and y is smallest

x =3 and y = 0

C = 3 - 3(0)

C = 3-0 = 3

The max is 3
