Find the shortest side of a triangle whose perimeter is 64 if the ratio of two of its sides is 4:3 and the third side is 20 less than the sum if the other two

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The shortest side of the triangle is 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the sides the triangle be x, y and z.

From the question, the perimeter of the rectangle is 64, that is

x + y + z = 64 ...... (1)

Also, the ratio of two of its sides is 4:3, that is x:y = 4:3, then we can write that x/y = 4/3 ⇒ 3x = 4y ...... (2)

The third side, z, is 20 less than the sum of the other two, that is

z + 20 = x + y ...... (3)

Substitute equation (3) into (1)

Then,

z + 20 + z = 64

2z +20 = 64

2z = 64 - 20

2z = 44

z = 44/2 k

z = 22

From equation (3)

z + 20 = x + y

Then, k

22 + 20 = x +y

42 = x + y

x = 42 - y ...... (4)

Substitute this into equation 2

3x = 4y

3(42-y) = 4y

126 - 3y = 4y

4y + 3y = 126

7y = 126

y = 126/7

y = 18

Substitute this into equation (4)

x = 42 - y

x = 42 - 18

x = 24

∴ x = 24, y = 18 and z = 22

Hence, the shortest side of the triangle is 18.

The price of grapes at the grocery store is $1.44 per pound. There are approximately 0.45 kilograms in a pound. To the nearest cent, what is the price of grapes in dollars per kilogram?

$0.65 per kilogram
$0.99 per kilogram
$1.89 per kilogram
$3.20 per kilogram

Answers

Answer:

$3.20 / kg

Step-by-step explanation:

$1.44 / pound

so, this is normed to 1 pound = 0.45 kg.

now we want to transform that to have 1 kg as the norming unit.

for this we need to multiply the top and the bottom of the ratio with the same number, so that the value of the ratio remains unchanged, but that the bottom turns into 1 kg.

so, what do we need to turn 0.45 into 1 ?

0.45 × x = 1

x = 1/0.45 = 1/1 / 45/100 = 100/45 = 20/9 = 2.22222...

since we need to multiply top and bottom with the same factor, we get

(1.44/0.45) × (2.222222/2.222222) =

(1.44 × 2.222222) / (0.45×2.222222) =

(1.44 × 2.222222) / 1kg = $3.20 / kg

the answer is number 4 or d

An equilateral triangle has a perimeter of 18 feet. If a square whose sides have the same length as one side of the triangle is built, what will be the area of the square?

Answers

Answer:

36 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

equilateral means all sides are equally long.

a triangle has 3 sides.

in our case they are all equally long.

and their sum (all 3 sides together) is the perimeter

P = 18 = 3 × side length

side length = 18/3 = 6 ft

a square with the same side length (6) had then an area of

side length × side length = 6×6 = 6² = 36 ft²

it is important to remember : a length is measured e.g. in feet (ft). an area is then meshed in square-feet (ft²). it is important to add this to the calculated numbers to express the right dimension of these numbers.

this means that at 0 hr you go 0 miles , 1 hr you go 3 miles etc

0,0

2,6

3,9

etc.

if you graph that you will have the red line in you graph, and the x values would be 0,1,2,3 with the y values being 0,3,6,9....

if you DIVIDE any of those points

3/1 ,6/2, 9,3 the result is always a "3" that is the speed that you are walking at

it is a CONSTANT (in this problem) ... note: if the speed is NOT constant then this basically becomes a calculus problem, ant an algebra one.

Christina buys 3 DVDs . 2 of the DVDs cost X+Y . Write an expression that shows the amount the 3 DVDs cost

Answers

Answer:

3/2(x+y)

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost of 2 DVD is x+y

Divide by 2 to get the cost of one DVD

(x+y) /2

Multiply by 3 to get the cost of 3

3/2(x+y)

Answer:

= 3(x + y)/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of two DVD's is shown as :-

= x + y

If we divide by 2 we'll get the cost of each DVD

= (x + y)/2

Then, multiplying by 3 gives us the total amount.

= 3(x + y)/2

For the given functions f and g , find the indicated composition. F(x) = -5x + 4, g(x) = 4x + 6 (g∘f)(x)

Answers

Answer:

(g∘f)(x) = -20x + 22

Step-by-step explanation:

(g∘f)(x) simply means g(f(x))

We are given;

f(x) = -5x + 4

g(x) = 4x + 6

Thus;

(g∘f)(x) = 4(-5x + 4) + 6

(g∘f)(x) = -20x + 16 + 6

(g∘f)(x) = -20x + 22

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I hope these are people in vehicles travelling toward each other.

80 mh * t + 40 mph * t = 420 miles

The two vehicles are going to travel a total of 420 miles. B will cover a lot more ground than A, but together they will make 420 miles

80t + 40t = 420

120t = 420

t = 420/120

t = 3.5

So after driving 3.5 hours, the two cars will meet.

Hi there!

Looking at the graph, the first intersection point is clear. The red parabola and  blue line clearing intersect at the point (0, -1).

Find the second intersection point by setting the equations of both graphs equal to each other.

Line: y = 3x - 1

Parabola: y = 4x² - 1

Find another intersection point by setting these two equations equal to each other:

4x² - 1 = 3x - 1

Bring all terms onto one side:

4x² - 3x = 0

Factor out x:

x(4x - 3) = 0

Set 4x - 3 to 0 and solve:

4x - 3 = 0

4x = 3

x = 3/4

Plug in this value of x into an equation to solve for the y-coordinate. Use the linear equation for ease:

y = 3(3/4) - 1

y = 9/4 - 1

y = 5/4

Step-by-step explanation: The answer is D because firstly we know that all right triangles add up to 180 degrees.

Using this knowledge we know 2 sides out of the 3. Therefore 47+28+x=180. Then we would add the first 2 numbers then minus 180 to get 105 as your last angle.
