The ratio of 1 3/4 to 2 1/2 is equal to the ratio of 14 to what number?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Lynna [10]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

x = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Write and solve an equation of ratios, as follows:

  1 3/4         14

------------ = --------

  2 1/2           x

where x is the unknown number.

Converting the mixed numbers to improper fractions, we get:

7/4       14

------ = -----

5/2        x

Here there are two numerators and two denominators.  Multiplying all four quantities by 4 will remove some of the fractions:

 7        56

------ = -------

 10       4x

Cross multiplying, we get:

28 x = 560, or x = 20

The length and
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

42 yards

Step-by-step explanation

There are 4 sides to a rectangle. 2 lengths, and 2 widths. That means that you multiply both values by 2 and then add them together, so 40 + 2. A more basic way to think of it is 20+20+1+1. Therefore, the perimeter is 41 yards.

the volume of a solid triangular prism is 726 cubic centimeters. its height is 12 centimeters and its bases are congruent right
aivan3 [116]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  11 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the prism is given by the formula ...

  V = Bh

where B is the area of the triangular base, and h is the height.

Filling in the given information, we find the area of the triangular base to be ...

  726 cm³ = B(12 cm)

  B = 726 cm³/(12 cm) = 60.5 cm²

The area of an isosceles right triangle is half the area of a square with the same side lengths:

  B = 1/2s²

  60.5 = 1/2s²

  s = √(2(60.5)) = √121 = 11

The length of each of the equal sides of the base is 11 cm.

The rabbit population, y, in hundreds of rabbits, in an area x years since 1990 can be determined using this function: y = -0.1x
IrinaVladis [17]
Y=-0.1x^2+50

This is a quadratic with a negative acceleration of -0.2, a velocity of -0.2x, and an initial value of 50.

The rabbit population is decreasing rapidly, perhaps due to the area in which they live being developed or by the introduction of a predator population...

What number would you add to both sides of x2 + 7x = 4 to complete the square?<br> o 22
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

49/4

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 + 7x = 4

Take the coefficient of x

7

Divide by 2

7/2

Square it

(7/2) ^2 = 49/4

Add this to each side

x^2 + 7x  +49/4= 4+49/4
