AC=2AE ( because diagonal of rhombus bisect each others)

AE=8 cot 53°

AE=6

AC=2 x 6 = 12

Hence, The length of AC is 12

Answer:

The length of AC is 12

Step-by-step explanation:

we need to find measure of AC

Since, diagonal of rhombus bisect each others at 90°

AC = 2AE

In ΔAEB

Since, $cot\theta=\frac{base}{perpendicular}$

$cot53=\frac{AE}{EB}$

Since AE =EB = 8

$cot53=\frac{AE}{8}$

Multiply both the sides by 8,

AE = 8 cot 53°

AE = 8 * 0.75

AE = 6

so,

AC=2 x AE

AC=2 x 6

AC= 12

Hence, The length of AC is 12

Katrina drinks 0.5 gallons of water per day which expression shows how to find the number of cups of water she drinks in a week

kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

56 cups of water

Step-by-step explanation:

Katrina drinks 0.5 gallons of water per day

We have 7 days in a week, hence, the number of gallons of water she drinks per week is calculated as:

1 day = 0.5 gallons

7 days = x

Cross Multiply

1 day × x = 7 days × 0.5 gallons

x = 7 days × 0.5 gallons/1 day

x = 3.5 gallons

Note that 16 cups = 1 gallon

The number of cups of water she drinks per week is

1 gallon = 16 cups

3.5 gallons = x

Cross Multiply

1 gallons × x = 3.5 gallons × 16 cups

x = 3.5 gallons × 16 cups/1 gallons

x = 56 cups

Therefore, Katrina drinks 56 cups of water in a week

Which expression is equivalent to the following complex fraction? StartFraction 1 Over x EndFraction minus StartFraction 1 Over

Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

$\frac{y-x}{x+y}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that fraction

$\frac{\frac{1}{x}-\frac{1}{y}}{\frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{y}}$

We have to find the expression which is equivalent to given fraction .

$\frac{1}{x}-\frac{1}{y}=\frac{y-x}{xy}$

$\frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{y}=\frac{x+y}{xy}$

Substitute the values then, we get

$\frac{\frac{y-x}{xy}}{\frac{y+x}{xy}}$

We know that

$\frac{\frac{a}{b}}{\frac{x}{y}}=\frac{a}{b}\times \frac{y}{x}$

Using the property then, we get

$\frac{y-x}{xy}\times \frac{xy}{x+y}$

$\frac{y-x}{x+y}$

This is required expression which is equivalent to given expression.
