When converting from inches to feet, the measurement in inches, m, of an object varies directly with its measurement in feet, f,

with the constant of variation being 12.
What is the equation relating these two quantities?

Step-by-step explanation:

wow, how complicated can one phrase this ...

the point being :

1 ft = 12 in and vice versa (1 in = 1/12 ft)

so, any measurements given in feet but needed in inches need to be multiplied by 12.

and any measurements given in inches but needed in feet need to be divided by 12.

so,

3.5 ft = 3.5×12 = 7/2 × 12 = 7×6 = 42 in

27 in = 27/12 = 9/4 = 2 1/4 or 2.25 ft

Altitudes AA1 and BB1 are drawn in acute △ABC. Prove that A1C·BC=B1C·AC
Sophie [7]

Answer:

See the attached figure which represents the problem.

As shown, AA₁ and BB₁ are the altitudes in acute △ABC.

△AA₁C is a right triangle at A₁

So, Cos x = adjacent/hypotenuse = A₁C/AC ⇒(1)

△BB₁C is a right triangle at B₁

So, Cos x = adjacent/hypotenuse = B₁C/BC ⇒(2)

From (1) and  (2)

∴  A₁C/AC = B₁C/BC

using scissors method

∴ A₁C · BC = B₁C · AC

The sum of two numbers is 97. One number is 1 more than twice the other number. Find the two numbers.​
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

The 2 numbers are 32 and 65.

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = 97   where x and y are the 2 numbers.

x = 2y + 1

Substituting for x in the first equation:

2y + 1 + y = 97

3y = 96

y = 32.

So x = 2y + 1 = 64 + 1 = 65.
