Answer: 16

Step-by-step explanation:

an area is always calculated by multiplying 2 dimensions.

when changing the dimensions, then the change factors for EACH dimension go into the calculation too.

therefore, when both dimensions of an area are enlarged 4 times, then the area is enlarged 4×4 = 16 times.

this just propagates to the whole surface area of an object, as each individual area of the overall surface area is enlarged by the same factor. and so, the sum of all the individual areas (= altogether the surface area of the object) is also enlarged in total by the same factor.

just think

16×a + 16×b + 16×c ... = 16×(a+b+c+...)

A rock band is playing a concert at Music Hall 49, which has 2,500 seats. If 80% of the tickets were sold before the night of th
nasty-shy [4]

First you must see how many seats were bought. To do this you must make a proportion

\frac{part}{whole} = \frac{part}{whole}

80 is a percent and percent's are always taken out of the 100. This means that one proportion will have 80 as the part and 100 as the whole

We want to know what 80% of 2,500 is in order to find how many seats were sold before the show. This means 2,500 is the whole and the unknown (let's make this x) is the part.

Here is your proportion:

\frac{x}{2,500} =\frac{80}{100}

Now you must cross multiply

x*100 = 80*2,500

100x = 200,000

To isolate x divide 100 to both sides

100x/100 = 200,000/100

x = 2,000

This means that before the night of the concert 2,000 seats were bought.

We are still not done with this problem because we want to know how many seats are left the night of the concert. To find this simply subtract 2,000 from the number of original seating (2,500)

2,500 - 2,000 = 500

On the night of the concert there were 500 seats left.

Hope this helped!

Is the number even or odd?<br>2018−2017+2016−2015 + . . . +2–1
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

It is the odd number 1009

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that this problem involves the addition of a number "1" per consecutive pair (a number minus the integer that immediately precedes it), so it adds "1" (one) every couple of consecutive numbers.

2018 - 2017 = 1

2016 - 2015 = 1

...

4- 3 = 1

2 - 1 = 1

That means it is the addition of 2018/2 = 1009 numbers "1". This clearly results on the number 1009, which is an odd number.

On a number line, point D is at -3, and point E is at 6. The point F lies on . The ratio of to is 2 : 3. Where does point F lie
Kamila [148]

Answer:

F is at 3

Step-by-step explanation:

D                                                                       F                                   E

|________________|_________________|_________________|

-3                                0                                    3                                   6

With a ratio of 2:3, there are 3 sections on this number line ( -3 to 0, 0 to 3, and 3 to 6). Where the second section is is where the ratio would fit, because section 2 of 3 is the ratio 2:3.

Help! Please! Geometry!!
DiKsa [7]

9.

By the Segment Addition Postulate, SAP, we have

XY + YZ = XZ

so

YZ = XZ - XY = 5 cm - 2 cm = 3 cm

10.

M is the midpoint of XZ=5 cm so

XM = 5 cm / 2 =  2.5 cm

11.

XY + YM = XM

YM = XM - XY = 2.5 cm - 2 cm = 0.5 cm

12.

The midpoint is just the average of the coordinate A(-3,2), B(5,-4)

M = (A+B)/2 = \left( \dfrac{-3 + 5}{2}, \dfrac{2 + -4}{2} \right)

Answer: M is (1,-1)

You'll have to plot it yourself.

13.

For distances we calculate hypotenuses of a right triangle using the distnace formula or the Pythagorean Theorem.

AB^2 =(5 - -3)^2 + (-4 - 2)^2 = 8^2 + 6^2 = 100

Answer: AB=10

M is the midpoint of AB so

Answer: AM=MB=5

14.

B is the midpoint of AC.   We have A(-3,2), B(5,-4)

B = (A+C)/2

2B = A + C

C = 2B - A

C = ( 2(5) - -3, 2(-4) - 2 ) = (13, -10)

Check the midpoint of AC:

(A+C)/2 = ( (-3 + 13)/2, (2 + -10)/2 ) = (5, -4) = B, good

Answer: C is (13, -10)

Again I'll leave the plotting to you.
