Answer:

180 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

For similar figures the ratio of areas is the square of the ratio of linear dimensions.

We take "tripled in size" to mean that the linear dimensions of the larger rectangle are 3 times those of the smaller rectangle. That means the area of the larger rectangle will be 3² = 9 times the area of the smaller one.

Area = (3²)(20 cm²) = 180 cm² . . . . area after tripled in size

Answer:

$9C=5(F-32)$

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation which can convert the temperature from degree Celsius into degree Fahrenheit is given as under

$9C=5(F-32)$

We can solve it further for F as

$9C=5F-5 \times 32$

$9C=5F-160$

$9C+160=5F$

Dividing both sides by 5 we get

$\frac{9C}{5}+32=F$

$F=\frac{9C}{5}+32$

Now substituting values of C in this equation will give us the corresponding values of F

Ex : C=1

$F=\frac{ 9\times 1}{5}+32$

$F=\frac{ 9+160}{5}$

$F=\frac{ 169}{5}$

Hence 1 degree Celsius is $\frac{ 169}{5}$ degree Fahrenheit

Please help me with this question. Thank you so much everyone.

LiRa [457]

Answer:

1159

Step-by-step explanation:

She wants to read 1000 pages per week for five weeks.

So in total she wants to read 1000 * 5 = 5000 pages.

The first three weeks she read 894 pages per week.

So during the first three weeks she read a total of 894 * 3 = 2682 pages.

We want to find how many pages she must read per week for the last two weeks to reach her goal.

Goal: 5000 pages

Pages read so far: 2682

Weeks remaining: 2

To find how many pages she must read for the last two weeks we simply subtract the number of pages she read during the first 3 weeks (2682 ) by her goal ( 5000 )

5000 - 2682 = 2318

So she must read 2318 pages during the last 2 weeks.

If we want to find the amount of pages she must read per week during the last 2 weeks to reach her goal, we simply divide the amount of pages she must read during the last few weeks to reach her goal ( 2318 ) by the number of remaining weeks ( 2 )

2318 / 2 = 1159

So for the last two weeks she must average 1159 pages per week.

Answer:

BAC=15

Step-by-step explanation:

angle BOA= 180-30= 150

triangle BAO is isosceles because it has two equal sides, radii of a circumference so the angles ABO=BAO=(180-150)/2=15
