3 0

A)

3.612 = 3.6
29.87= 30

B)

3.6/30= 0.12

Easy method to do this:
360/30= 12
12/100= 0.12

Trigonometry question

ehidna [41]

Answer:

The scale factors that make figure smaller are the option D. -0.5 and the option E. 0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If the absolute value of the scale factor is greater than 1, then the image will be larger than the pre-image.

If the absolute value of the scale factor is less than 1, then the image will be smaller than the pre-image.

If the absolute value of the scale factor is equal to 1, then the image will be the same size than the pre-image.

Additionally, a negative scale factor causes the dilation to rotate 180 degrees

therefore

In this problem

The scale factors that make figure smaller are the option D. -0.5 and the option E 0.25

A car is traveling in a race. The car went from the initial velocity of 35 m/s to the final velocity of 65m/s in 5 seconds what

artcher [175]

The acceleration is defined as the ratio between the change in velocity and the time elapsed to perform such a change.

These "changes" are indicated with the capital greek letter delta, $\Delta$ , and when you write $\Delta x$ you mean the difference between the finial and the inital values of the variable x:

$\Delta x = x_{\text{fin}} - x_{\text{init}}$

So, the acceleration is defined as

$a = \dfrac{\Delta v}{\Delta t} = \dfrac{v_{\text{fin}} - v_{\text{init}}}{t_{\text{fin}} - t_{\text{init}}}$

In this case, the initial velocity is 35, the final velocity is 65. Assuming we start the clock at the beginning of the observation, the inital time is 0 and the final time is 5. So, we have

$a = \dfrac{65-35}{5-0} = \dfrac{30}{5} = 6$ m/s^2
