Okay, so YZ = 3 cm. You have XM correct. And YM = 0.5.

Now, you have the midpoint M at the correct spot.

Use Pythagorean's theorem o find the length of AB. a² + b² = c² a=6, b=8.

6² = 36 8² = 64 36 + 64 = 100 AB = 10!

If AB = 10 then AM = 5 MB also = 5

If B is the midpoint of AC, C would be 12 rows down from A, and 16 columns to the right. The last spot where the line intersects.

There are your answers!

Please assist me with this problem

Answer:

d. about 50 times larger

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expressions for magnitude (M) can be solved for the intensity (I). Then the ratio of intensities is ...

$\dfrac{I_2}{I_1}=\dfrac{I_0\cdot 10^{M_2}}{I_0\cdot 10^{M_1}}=10^{M_2-M_1}=10^{4.2-2.5}\\\\=10^{1.7}\approx 50$

The larger earthquake had about 50 times the intensity of the smaller one.

The cloth shop has announced a reduction in price by 25%. How many shirts priced at Rs 28 should buy to avail a total reduction

Drupady [299]

Answer:

At least 6 shirts should be brought to avail a total reduction of Rs 40.

Step-by-step explanation:

The marked price of each shirt = Rs 28

Discount offered = 25%

So, 25% of marked price 28 = $\frac{25}{100} \times 28 = 7$

⇒Reduction on each shirt is Rs 7

Now, total amount reduction needed = Rs 40

So, number of shirts purchased = $\frac{\textrm{Total reduction needed}}{\textrm{Reduction on each shirt}}$

= 40 Rs /7 Rs = 5. 71 ≈ 6

So, at least 6 shirts should be brought to avail a total reduction of Rs 40.
