Scale factor is given by:
(length of larger figure)/(length of smaller figure)=(width of larger figure)/(width of the smaller figure)=3.4
The length of the larger figure will be given by:
length=(scale factor)*(length of smaller figure)
=3.4*6=20.4 cm
width of the larger figure will be given by:
width=(scale factor)*(width of smaller figure)
=3.4*4.5
=15.3 cm
Therefore the dimension of the new parallelogram will be 20.4 cm by 15.3 cm
Let x be rate of boat in still water
let y be rate of current
we use this equation to relate quantities:
distance = speed · time
we have two unknowns so we might need to create a system of equationss
upstream:
speed (in km/h) = x - y
(we get speed of boat then subtract the current's speed from it since current is going against boat direction)
time = 3 hours
distance = 144 km
downstream:
speed (in hm/h) = x + y
(we get speed of boat then add the current's spd from it since current is going against boat direction)
time = 2 hours
distance = 144 km (same distance upstream and downstream)
using distance = speed times time
for upstream
144 = 3(x-y)
144 = 3x - 3y
for downstream
144 = 2(x+y)
72 = x + y
system of eqns:
144 = 3x - 3y
72 = x + y
solve by substitution: move 72 = x + y into x = 72 - y and subst into other equation for x
144 = 3(72 - y) - 3y
144 = 216 - 3y - 3y
144 = 216 - 6y
144 - 216 = -6y
-72 = -6y
y = 12 km/h
Use x = 72 - y to find x with y = 12: x = 72 - 12 = 60 km/h
rate of boat in still water is 60 km/h
rate of the current is 12 km/h
Minus 3y both sides
2y-6=-20
add 6 to both sids
2y=-14
divide 2
y=-7
Answer:
V = a³/8
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume of the original cube is the cube of the side length:
V = a³
When the side length is reduced to half its former value, the new volume is ...
V = (a/2)³ = a³/2³
V = a³/8 . . . . volume of the new cube
Answer:
0
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = √(x) + 12
g(x) = 2√(x)
(f-g)(x) = √(x) + 12 - 2√(x)
(f-g)(x) = 12 - √(x)
if x = 144
(f-g)(144) = 12 - √(144) = 12 - 12 = 0
