Answer:
2.7 in²
Step-by-step explanation:
similar triangles have the same angles, and all side lengths (or other distances) of one triangle have the same scaling factor to the side lengths of the other triangle.
so, we know the relation between the 2 baselines is 2/3, as this is the factor to turn the baseline of the large triangle into the baseline of the smaller triangle.
in other words
EF = BC × 2/3
2 = 3 × 2/3
correct
how do we calculate the area of a triangle ?
Area = baseline × height / 2
from BAC we know
Area = 6
baseline = 3
height = ?
6 = 3 × height / 2
12 = 3 × height
height = 4
aha !
now, EDF has a height too that we need to calculate is Area. and this height has the same scaling factor compared to the larger triangle as the side lengths : 2/3
so, for EDF we know
Area = ?
baseline = 2
height = 4 × 2/3 = 8/3
therefore, the area is
Area = (2 × 8/3) / 2 = (16/3) / 2 = 8/3 = 2.66666... ≈ 2.7
the shirt answer would be :
we know from the 2 baselines that the scaling factor for each distance is 2/3.
for the area we need to multiply 2 distances, so that means we have to multiply both by 2/3. and so on the formula for the area we have to use 2/3 × 2/3.
2/3 × 2/3 = 4/9
=>
Area small = Area large × 4/9 = 6 × 4/9 = 24/9 = 8/3 ≈ 2.7
11 * 14 = 154 lbs since 11lbs=1 stone 11 stones =154lbs
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
For the given intervals
( - ∞, - 5) ← use any value < - 5 but not - 5, the parenthesis ) indicates that x is less than - 5 but not equal to - 5
(- 5, - 1) ← - 4, - 3, - 2 can be used but not - 5 or - 1
(- 1, 4) ← 0, 1, 2, 3 can be used but not - 1 or 4
(4, ∞ ) ← use any value > 4 but not 4
Hence
3 can be used in (- 1, 4)
- 6 can be used in (- ∞, - 5)
zero can be used in (- 1, 4)
- 5 cannot be used in any of the given intervals
So you already have the formula for calculating the dosage for child with: C = a/(a+12)x 180 ml Not sure why you have double brackets
variables are: a = child's age, so everywhere you have an "a" replace it with the age of child.
Example: 5 year old child
C = 5/(5+12)*180= 5/(17)*180 = 5/3060 = .0016 ml or milligrams
<span>-6x-3y=18
Substitute 0 for y
-6x-3(0)=18
Multply -3 by 0
-6x=18
Divide both sides by -6 so that the only thing on the left side is the variable x.
Final Answer: x= -3</span>
