Two similar triangles have areas 16 and 4. if a side of the smaller triangle measures 2, find the length of the corresponding side in the larger triangle.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of the areas of similar figures is the square of the side length.

Since the ratio of the areas is 16:4 = 4:1, the ratio of the side lengths is 2:1.

So, the length of the corresponding side is 2(2) = 4.

The data show the heights in feet of 14 roller coasters. find the mean, median, midrange, and mode for the data.

Answers

The mean of the heights of roller coaster is 27.92 feet, median is 21, mode is 16 and mid range is 35.5.

Given heights in feet of 14 roller coaster 11,12,13,14,16,21,25,26,31,40,51,55,60.

We have to calculate the mean, median, mid range and mode for the data.

Mean is the sum of numbers divided by the numbers.

Mean=∑X/n

∑X=11+12+13+14+16+21+25+26+31+40+51+55+60

=391

n=14

Mean=391/14

=27.92 feet.

Median is the central value of the data given.

Median=(n/2)th term ,when  n is even, ( n/2)th term, (n+1)/2th term when n is odd.

Median=14/2th term=7th term which is 21.

Mode is the number which has higher frequency.

Mode is 16 because it comes 2 times.

Mid range is the sum of upper value and lower value of data divided by 2.

Mid range=(11+60)/2==35.5.

Hence the mean is 27.92 feet, median is 21 feet, mid range is 35.5 feet, mode is 16 feet.

Please help!!! Having some trouble with this! Tom, Jim, and Matt want to build a castle next to their swing set. The castle is as wide as the swing set, and 6 feet long. The additional play area is enlarged to yield the following layout:|

Answers

Length = 7 + 2x [L]

Breadth = 6 + x [B]

So, Area = L × B

=> Area = (7 + 2x) (6 + x)

=> Area = 7 × 6 + 7x + 2x × 6 + 2x²

=> Area = 42 + 7x + 12x + 2x²

=> Area = 2x² + 19x + 42

Option B is correct.

Any questions, you may ask.

Answer: b.) 2x² + 19x + 42

Area of rectangle:

⇒ Length × Width

⇒ (6 + x) × (7 + 2x)

apply distributive method: (a + b)(c + d) = ac + ad + bc + bd

A horse 24 feet from the center of a merry-go-round makes 32 revolutions. In order to travel the same distance, how many revolutions would a horse 8 feet from the center have to make

Answers

Using proportions, the horse 8 feet from the center would have to make 96 revolutions.

What is a proportion?

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.

A horse 24 feet from the center of a merry-go-round makes 32 revolutions. If it is 8 feet and wants the same distance, how many revolutions will it need? The rule of three is:

24 feet - 32 revolutions

8 feet - x revolutions

The measures are inverse proportional, hence:

8x = 24 x 32

x = 24 x 32/8

x = 96 revolutions.

Answer: Mustafa is incorrect. He made a mistake in step 2.

Step-by-step explanation: Mustafa was certainly correct in step 1 that x(9x+3) + 3(x+3) is 9x^2 + 6x + 9. However when he was factoring, he made a mistake.

(3x + 3)^2 is NOT equal to 9x^2 + 6x + 9. Rather, (3x + 3)^2 is equal to 9x^2 + 18x + 9. If you want to double check this, use FOIL.

The correct factoring of 9x^2 + 6x + 9 is actually 3(3x^2 + 2x + 3). So, Mustafa made a mistake in step 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

So the midpoint of AB can be calculated by finding the length of AB, dividing it by 2 and then adding it to A. So the length of AB is equal to B-A or in general the difference between two values is |a-b| where the order doesn't matter, but assuming B is the right side (meaning it should be greater than A) the length should be B-A. in this case A = -5 and B = 3 so the length is 3 - (-5) = 8. The length is 8 so the midpoint is half of that which is 4, now adding 4 to the left side (A) you get -5 + 4 = -1. So the midpoint of AB lies at -1. Now the midpoint of AC can be found using the same process. 7 - (-5) = 12 => 12/2 = 6 => -5 + 6 = 1 so the midpoint of AC is at 1. Now to find how many units from the midpoint AB to AC you just subtract the midpoint of AB from AC. this gives you 1 - (-1) which is 2.

1/4 – 410 (used for 8th and 9th days)

(3/4)/7 ——- (1/4 – 10)/2

Answers

The first four terms of the sequence are 8,12,16 and 20.

What is a Sequence?A sequence is an enumerated group of items in mathematics where repetitions are permitted and order is important. Similar to a set, it has members (also called elements, or terms). The length of the series is the number of elements (potentially infinite). In contrast to a set, the same items might appear more than once in a sequence at various points, and unlike a set, the order is important. A sequence can be described formally as a function from natural numbers (the positions of the sequence's elements) to the items at each of those positions. An indexed family, which is a function from an index set that may not be a set of numbers to another set of elements, can be thought of as a generalization of the idea of a sequence.

Given the function is f(n) = (2n+2)2

Now, we want first four terms, therefore, putting 1, 2, 3, 4 in the sequence we get:

f(1) = (2*1+2)2 = 8

f(2) = (2*2+2)2 = 12

f(3) = (2*3+2)2 = 16

f(4) = (2*4+2)2 = 20

A cylindrical container 30cm in diameter holds approximately 30 litres of oil. how far does the oil level fall after 1 litre of oil has been used

Answers

The fall in the level of oil is 1.4147 cm when the total volume of oil consumed is 1 liter.

We assume the drop in the level of water to be d cm.

Since the container is cylindrical in shape, its volume is given as:

V = πr²h, where V is the volume, r is the radius, and h is the height.

In the question, we are given that the diameter of the can is 30 cm.

Hence its radius = 30/2 = 15 cm.

The capacity of the container is given to be 30 liters or 30*1000 = 30000 cm³.

The volume of the oil used = 1 liter or 1*1000 = 1000 cm³.

Thus, substituting V = 1000, r = 15, and h = d, in the formula of the volume, V = πr²h, we get:

1000 = π(15)²(d),

or, d = 1000/(225π) = 1.4147.

Thus, the fall in the water level is 1.4147 cm.

Therefore, the fall in the level of oil is 1.4147 cm when the total volume of oil consumed is 1 liter.
