Answer: Kara should have written the proportion in step 1 as;
Start Fraction 12 Over 72 End Fraction = Start Fraction 14 Over x End Fraction (that is 12/72 = 14/x)
Step-by-step explanation: The two similar triangles are given with the following dimensions;
Triangle VXW with side VW = 12 and side VX = 14. Also Triangle ZXY with side YZ = 72 and side XZ = x.
For two triangles to be similar, then there must be a similarity ration that is consistent with all sides in both triangles. This means if in the first triangle a side measures 1 unit and the similar side in the other triangle measures 5 units, then the ratio of similarity of corresponding sides shall be ratio 1 : 5. So for every corresponding side in the second triangle the measurement shall be times five of the side that corresponds in the first triangle.
Therefore, in triangle VXW and triangle ZXY, the corresponding sides are as follows;
VX = ZX
VW = ZY
XW = XY
What Kara did was as follows;
VX/ZY = VW/ZX
Which translates to 14/72 = 12/x
This was a wrong calculation because the side that corresponds to VX is ZX and not ZY.
The correct step should therefore have been;
VW/ZY = VX/ZX
12/72 = 14/x (Step 1)
12x = (72) (14) {Step 2}
x = 1008/12 (Step 3)
x = 84 (Step 4)
Answer: Choice B
95 - 1080n for any integer n
=================================================
Explanation:
Notice how 1080 is a multiple of 360 since 360*3 = 1080. The other values 1450, 780 and 340 are not multiples of 360. For example 1450/360 = 4.02777 approximately. We need a whole number result to show it is a multiple.
Therefore, choice B shows subtracting off a multiple of 360 from the original angle 95. In my opinion, it would be better to write 95+360n or 95-360n to make it more clear we are adding or subtracting multiples of 360.
Choice B will find coterminal angles, but there will be missing gaps. One missing coterminal angle is 95-360 = -265 degrees. So again, 95-360n is a more complete picture. I can see what your teacher is going for though.
Answer:
73
Step-by-step explanation:
Do the stuff in parenthesis first then do the stuff out of parenthesis EX:
4 to second power is 16 plus three is 19 plus two is 21 then add three to get 24 and seven to the second power is 49 add that and you get 73
Simplify the expression
It can be simplified as below:
Answer:
2.68 pints
Step-by-step explanation:
The fraction of white paint is 1 -3/5 = 2/5, so the quantity of white paint is ...
(2/5)(6.7 pints) = 2.68 pints
Kimberly used 2.68 pints of white paint.
