Every 1 minute, you multiply the mass by 27.7% or 0.277

after 1 minute, you multiply once
after 2 minutes, you multiply twice
3, thrice
etc
so after 13 minutes, you multiply 13 times or 0.277^13

so what is 970g *0.277^13 =?

970×(1−0.277)^(13)
=14.3

A rectangular prism has a length of 4.2 cm, a width of 5.8 cm, and a height of 9.6 cm. A similar prism has a length of 14.7 cm,
grigory [225]

Answer: 3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Dimensions of larger prism = length of  4.2 cm, a width of 5.8 cm, and a height of 9.6 cm.

Dimensions of smaller prism = length of 14.7 cm, a width of 20.3 cm, and a height of 33.6 cm.

Scale factor = \dfrac{\text{Size of image}}{\text{Size of original figure}}

Since, smaller figure is the original figure and the bigger one is the image.

So, scale factor = \dfrac{14.7}{4.2}=3.5  [Taking lengths

Hence, the factor to produce the corresponding dimensions of the larger prism = 3.5

Ellen thinks that if a line has no slope, then it never touches the y-axis. Which line proves that her statement is incorrect?
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

A horizontal line has no slope. The equation 'y=1' graphs as a horizontal line. It passes (0,1). So, it touches the y-axis.

A line with an undefined slope does not touch the y-axis. It is vertical.

Option D should be the correct answer.

The angles with measures 5x + 15 and 115 are corresponding angles.
For lines a and b to be parallel, those angles must be congruent.

5x + 15 = 115

5x = 100

x = 20
