Answer:

16 to 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's do our math.

4 to 5

8 to 10

12 to 15

16 to 20

In order to get to 20, you'd have to multiply 5 by 4. So in order to get an equal ratio, you multiply 4 by 4 and get 16.

I hope this helps!

The side lengths of the following right triangle 15,20 and 25, as shown below. The altitude from the right angle splits the hypo

Answer:

$h = 12$

$x = 9$

$y= 16$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The attached triangle

Required

Find h, x and y

Let the base of the triangle be 15.

So, the area is:

$A = \frac{1}{2} * 15 * 20$

$i.e\ height = 20$

$A = \frac{1}{2} * 300$

$A = 150$

Let the base of the triangle be 25.

So, the area is:

$A = \frac{1}{2} * 25 * h$

$i.e\ height = h$

$A = \frac{1}{2} * 25h$

Substitute $A = 150$

$\frac{1}{2}*25h = 150$

Solve for h

$h = \frac{150 *2}{25}$

$h = 6 *2$

$h = 12$

Considering the smallest triangle

$Hypotenuse = 15$

So:

$15^2 = h^2 + x^2$

$15^2 = 12^2 + x^2$

This gives:

$15^2 - 12^2 = x^2$

$81 = x^2$

Take square roots

$9 =x$

$x = 9$

Solving for y

$x + y = 25$

$y= 25 - x$

$y= 25 - 9$

$y= 16$

William invested $2,300 in an account paying an interest rate of 2 1/8% compounded quarterly. Nolan invested $2,300 in an accoun

shusha [124]

Answer:

$478

Step-by-step explanation:

After 20 years, William will have a total of $3,513.94

After 20 years, Nolan will have a total of $3,991.93

Difference = $478

William:

2300[1 + (.02125 ÷ 4)]^4 · 20

2300 · (1 + .0053125)^80

2300(1.5278)

$3,513.94

Nolan:

2300[1 + (.0275 ÷ 12)]^12 · 20

2300 · (1 + .0023)^240

2300(1.7356)

$3,991.93

Use desmos graphing calculator, for visuals. It's easy to use as well.

A is 0 (zero)

(1x1 + 2x1 - 3)

B) D ( lies on 1 on our x-axis)

C) This tells you to draw a line at zero on the y-axis, a horizontal line BTW & read off the x values, where the line touches the pink graph/diagram.

y=x^2+2x-3 is the similar to x^2+2x-3=0 because the letter y now represents zero. So, that's why we draw the line y=0 (a horizontal line at zero). Then, use it to find the x values.

Thus, x = - 3 & x = 1

Hope this helps!
