if the ratio of the side lengths of two similar rectangular
prisms is 3/5, what would be the ratio of their areas

Answers

Answer 1

Given:

Ratio of the side lengths of two similar rectangular prisms is [tex]\dfrac{3}{5}[/tex].

To find:

The ratio of their areas.

Solution:

If two figures are similar then their areas are proportional to the squares of their corresponding sides.

[tex]\dfrac{A_1}{A_2}=\dfrac{s_1^2}{s_2^2}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{A_1}{A_2}=\left(\dfrac{s_1}{s_2}\right)^2[/tex]           ...(i)

Where, [tex]A_1,A_2[/tex] are areas and [tex]s_1,s_2[/tex] are corresponding sides.

It is given that ratio of the side lengths of two similar rectangular prisms is [tex]\dfrac{3}{5}[/tex]. It means, [tex]\dfrac{s_1}{s_2}=\dfrac{3}{5}[/tex].

Using (i), we get

[tex]\dfrac{A_1}{A_2}=\left(\dfrac{3}{5}\right)^2[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{A_1}{A_2}=\dfrac{3^2}{5^2}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{A_1}{A_2}=\dfrac{9}{25}[/tex]

Therefore, the ratio of their areas is [tex]\dfrac{9}{25}[/tex]. It is also written as 9:25.

A building casts a 21 foot shadow along the ground. A person 5 feet 3 inches casts a shadow 7 feet long.



How tall is the building?

Answers

Answer:

~28

Step-by-step explanation:

5 feet 3 inches is 5.25 feet.

We divide 7/5.25 which equals 1.3333333333333 (repeating)

That means we multiply 21 by 1.333333333333 which would round up to 28 feet. (the exact answer is 27.99999999999999999)

There are 36 possible outcomes is shows in table for rolling two  six - sided number cubes.

What is mean by Multiplication?

To multiply means to add a number to itself a particular number of times. Multiplication can be viewed as a process of repeated addition.

We have to given that;

The table shows all the possible outcomes for rolling two six - sided number cubes.

Now, We know that;

For rolling one six - sided number cubes,

There is 6 possible outcomes.

Hence, For two six - sided number cubes.

Number of possible outcomes = 6 × 6

                                               = 36

Thus, There are 36 possible outcomes is shows in table for rolling two  six - sided number cubes.

Let us consider two points through which the line passes through

Step 1 : Find slope of the line

A group of people were asked if they had run a red light in the last year where 140 responded "yes," and 208 responded "no." If a person is randomly chosen, find the probability that he/she has run a red light in the last year. Give your answer as a fraction or decimal.

Answers

Answer:

35/87

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the probability, we must find (total number of favorable outcomes)/ (total number of outcomes). We thus need to find the total number of outcomes. As people have only answered "yes" or "no", the total number of outcomes is 208+140 = 348.

The total number of favorable outcomes, or what we're looking for, is 140 (140 people responded that they had run a red light). Thus, our fraction is 140/348, or 35/87

Sushil was thinking of a number. Sushil divides by 7 then adds 7 to get an answer of 12. Form an equation

Answers

Answer:

The number is 35.

35 divided by 7 is 5, and 5 plus 7 is 12.

:)

Let's assume the number Sushil was thinking was 'x'

Now lets understand each part,

First, Sushil divides the number by 7, writing this in numbers will give,

[tex]\frac{x}{7}[/tex]

Sushil then adds 7 to digit, this will give

[tex]\frac{x}{7}+7[/tex]

Sushil tells that the answer for the following equation is 12, so

[tex]\frac{x}{7} + 7 = 12[/tex]

Therefore the equation Sushil made is [tex]\frac{x}{7} + 7 = 12[/tex]

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Objective: Circle Theorems

The arcs add up to 360 and they are in proportion so

[tex]3x + 3x + 4x + 5x = 360[/tex]

[tex]15x = 360[/tex]

[tex]x = 24[/tex]

So this means that Arc AB and BC measure is 72 each. Arc CD measure is 96 and Arc DA measures is 120.

Angle 1 measure is a inscribed angle of Arc CD.

So it measures

[tex] \frac{96}{2} = 48[/tex]

Angle 2 is a inscribed angle of Arc AB so it measures

[tex] \frac{72}{2} = 36[/tex]

Angle 3 is a inscribed angle of Arc DA.

[tex] \frac{120}{2} = 60[/tex]

Angle 4 is a inscribed angle of Arc BC so it measures

[tex] \frac{72}{2} = 36[/tex]

Angle 5 is formed by tangent line ED. Since D lies on the circumference, it also is tangent to point e so it also measures 90 degrees.

Angle 4 measures 32 so Angle 5 is it complement to Angle 4.

[tex]32 + x = 90[/tex]

[tex]x = 58[/tex]

Angle 6 is formed by two intersecting chrods

so it measures

[tex] \frac{1}{2} (120+ 72) = 96[/tex]
