Explanation:
We can set up the ratio
12 pounds : 5 dollars
Then divide both parts of that ratio by 5 so that the "5 dollars" becomes "1 dollar"
12/5 = 2.45/5 = 1The ratio 12 pounds : 5 dollars is equivalent to 2.4 pounds : 1 dollar
Can anyone give a step-by-step guide on how to answer these types of questions? I'm really struggling with similar shapes so thank you in advance.
Answer:
a) 8cm
b) 19.8cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The key to these types of questions is to keep proportions in mind.
To solve the first question, you want to find the proportion of the smaller triangle to the bigger triangle. The length of AE is 6cm, but the length of AD is (6+4) = 10cm. So the proportion of the bigger triangle to the smaller triangle is 10/6. So to find the lengths of the sides of the bigger triangle, we want to keep this number in mind.
The BE side is parallel to CD, so we have to use length of BE multiplied by the proportion in order to get the length of CD.
CD = 4.8 * (10/6) = 8
CD = 8cm
For the second question, you use the same concept to find all the other side lengths. The only one you need left for the shape EBCD is side BC. Do the same thing you did before, take the length of the side of the smaller triangle that corresponds with side AC on the bigger triangle. In this case, it's AB, which is 4.5cm. Multiply this by 10/6 to get AC.
AC = 4.5 * (10/6) = 7.5
AC = 7.5
But we're not done. We just found the length of AC, but we need the length of BC to calculate the perimeter. To do this, we want to take the length of AC - the length of AB.
7.5 - 4.5 = 3
So the length of BC is 3cm. Now, to find the perimeter, just add all the sides of EBCD together.
4.8 + 4 + 8 + 3 = 19.8cm.
Hope this helps.
Answer:
a) CD = 8 cm
b) Perimeter of EBCD is 19.8 centimeters
Step-by-step explanation:
For this question, you can assume that ΔABE and ΔACD are similar. That's proven by BE ║ CD, but that's not directly relevant to the question so I won't explain it unless you would like me to.
In 2 similar triangles, all corresponding angles are congruent and all corresponding sides have the same scale factor.
For example, in ΔABC and ΔXYZ:
[tex]\frac{AB}{XY} =\frac{AC}{XZ} =\frac{BC}{YZ}[/tex]
Using those relationships, you can solve for any side in one triangle given the corresponding side in the other triangle.
A)
In the given triangles ΔABE and ΔACD, CD corresponds to BE, so:
[tex]\frac{CD}{BE} =\frac{AD}{AE}[/tex]
where AD is just 6 + 4 = 10.
[tex]\frac{CD}{4.8} =\frac{10}{6} \\\\\frac{CD}{4.8} =1.6667\\\\CD=8[/tex]
CD = 8cm
B)
Doing the same thing as above, now find the length of AC:
[tex]\frac{AC}{AB} =\frac{AD}{AE} \\\\\frac{AC}{4.5} =\frac{10}{6}\\\\\frac{AC}{4.5} =1.6667\\\\AC=7.5[/tex]
Now, to find BC:
[tex]BC=AC-AB\\BC=7.5-4.5\\BC=3[/tex]
Finally, add up the sides to find the perimeter of EBCD:
[tex]4.8+3+8+4\\19.8[/tex]
Perimeter of EBCD is 19.8 centimeters

any tips on adding/multiplying fractions?
Answer:
sure!
Step-by-step explanation:
if you're just wondering How to, then here you are. in order to add fractions, you first must make sure your two fractions in the equation have like denominators (if youre unsure, the bottom number in a fraction), so they just need to be the same before you can add them. Take 1/2 + 2/3 for example, both 2 and 3 can go into 6, so you can make them both fractions of 6. in order to change the bottom part of the fraction, you need to change the top part too. in the case of 1/2, you will multiply the 2 by 3, so also multiply the 1 by 3. then you have 3/6. for 2/3 you will multiply the 3 by 2, so you must also multiply the 2 by 2, you will get 4/6. Now we have 3/6 + 4/6. Do not change the denominator and simply add across the top. Now you'll have 7/6, or 1 1/6. Multiplying fractions is much much simpler. The denominators don't need to be the same, so you just multiply straight across. Multiply first numerator by second numerator, and first denominator by second denominator. using the 1/2 and 2/3 example again, you have 1/2 * 2/3. so you'll first multiply 1 * 2, and make that the numerator. You have 2/-. Then the same with the denominator, 2 * 3, giving you 2/6. (Or, you can simplify to 1/3.) hope this helps, let me know if you have more questions. :)

Answer:
PX : XQ = 2 : 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Since RX is perpendicular to PQ , then
Δ RPX and Δ RQX are right triangle
Calculate PX and XQ using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangles
PX² = 20² - 16² = 400 - 256 = 144 ( take square root of both sides )
PX = [tex]\sqrt{144}[/tex] = 12
Similarly
XQ² = 34² - 16² = 1156 - 256 = 900 ( take square root of both sides )
XQ = [tex]\sqrt{900}[/tex] = 30
Then
PX : XQ = 12 : 30 = 2 : 5 ( in simplest form )

the fact that the equation y = 4x doesn't have an intercept shows its proportional this can go with any similar equation like y = 4.5x
David’s bank offers a 36-month Certificate of Deposit (CD) with an APR of 2.25%. Use the compound interest formula to answer the following: a) If P = 2000, what is A(8)? b) Solve the equation A(t) = 4000 for t. c) What principal P should be invested so that the account balance is $2000 in three years?
Using compound interest, it is found that:
a) A(8) = 2389.66
b) t = 31.15
c) P = 1870.85
Compound interest:
[tex]A(t) = P\left(1 + \frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}[/tex]
A(t) is the amount of money after t years. P is the principal(the initial sum of money). r is the interest rate(as a decimal value). n is the number of times that interest is compounded per year. t is the time in years for which the money is invested or borrowed.In this problem:
The APR is of 2.25%, hence [tex]r = 0.0225[/tex].No information about the number of compounding per year, hence [tex]n = 1[/tex].Item a:
[tex]P = 2000[/tex], hence:
[tex]A(t) = P\left(1 + \frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}[/tex]
[tex]A(8) = 2000\left(1 + \frac{0.0225}{1}\right)^{8}[/tex]
[tex]A(8) = 2389.66[/tex]
Item b:
[tex]A(t) = 4000[/tex], hence:
[tex]A(t) = P\left(1 + \frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}[/tex]
[tex]4000 = 2000\left(1 + \frac{0.0225}{1}\right)^{t}[/tex]
[tex](1.0225)^t = 2[/tex]
[tex]\log{(1.0225)^t} = \log{2}[/tex]
[tex]t\log{1.0225} = \log{2}[/tex]
[tex]t = \frac{\log{2}}{\log{1.0225}}[/tex]
[tex]t = 31.15[/tex]
Item c:
[tex]A(3) = 2000[/tex], hence:
[tex]A(t) = P\left(1 + \frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}[/tex]
[tex]2000 = P\left(1 + \frac{0.0225}{1}\right)^{3}[/tex]
[tex]P = \frac{2000}{(1.0225)^3}[/tex]
[tex]P = 1870.85[/tex]

Nachelle wants to use a sheet of fiberboard 30 inches long to create a skateboard
ramp with a 19° angle of elevation from the ground. How high will the ramp rise from
the ground at its highest end? Round your answer to the nearest tenth of an inch if
necessary.
The height of the board is an illustration of Pythagoras theorem
The ramp will rise 10.3 inches from the ground
The angle of elevation is given as:
[tex]\mathbf{\theta = 19^o}[/tex]
The length of the board is given as:
[tex]\mathbf{l = 30}[/tex]
The height h is calculated using the following tangent ratio
[tex]\mathbf{tan(\theta) = \frac{Opposite}{Adjacent}}[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]\mathbf{tan(19) = \frac{h}{l}}[/tex]
This gives
[tex]\mathbf{tan(19) = \frac{h}{30}}[/tex]
Make h the subject
[tex]\mathbf{h = 30 \times tan(19)}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{h = 10.3}[/tex]
Hence, the ramp will rise 10.3 inches from the ground
