75 percent because you have to make it out of a hindered and 100 divided by 4 is 25. 25 times 3 is 75

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to relate speed, distance and time is:

D = V * t

Where D is the distance, V is the speed and t is the time.

As they are in opposite directions, we need to sum the speed.

So the total speed is:

V = 63 + 59 = 122 mph

So using this value and V and using D = 610, we have:

610 = 122 * t

t = 610 / 122 = 5 hours

So they will be 610 miles apart after 5 hours.

In triangle ABC segment DE is parallel to the side AC. (The endpoints of segment DE lie on the sides AB and BC respectively).

ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

6 dm

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangle DBE is similar to triangle ABC, so their side lengths are proportional.

DE/AC = DB/AB

The length of DB can be found from ...

DB +AD = AB

DB = AB -AD = (15 -10) dm = 5 dm

So, we can fill in the proportion:

DE/(18 dm) = (5 dm)/(15 dm)

DE = (18 dm)·(1/3) . . . . . . . . . . simplify, multiply by 18 dm

DE = 6 dm

_____

It can be helpful to draw and label a figure.

laiz [17]

Answer:

$h^{*} = 25\,in$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let consider that door has a height of 5 feet and a width of 3 feet. The scale factor is:

$n = \frac{15\,in}{3\,ft}$

$n = 5\,\frac{in}{ft}$

The height of the cabinet is:

$h^{*} = n \cdot h_{door}$

$h_{*} = \left(5\,\frac{in}{ft} \right)\cdot (5\,ft)$

$h^{*} = 25\,in$

Points H and F lie on circle c What is the length of line segment GH?

Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

6 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Points H and F lie on circle with center C. EG = 12, EC = 9 and ∠GEC = 90°.

To find: Length of GH.

Sol: EC = CH = 9 (Radius of the same circle are equal)

Now, GC = GH + CH

GC = GH + 9

Now In ΔEGC, using pythagoras theorem,

$(Hypotenuse)^{2} = (Base)^{2} +(Altitude)^{2}$ ......(ΔEGC is a right triangle)

$(GC)^{2} = (GE)^{2} +(EC)^{2}$

$(GH + 9)^{2} = (9)^{2} +(12)^{2}$

$(GH )^{2} + (9)^{2} + 18GH = 81 + 144$

$(GH )^{2} + 81 + 18GH = 81 + 144$

$(GH )^{2} + 18GH = 144$

Now, Let GH = <em>x</em>

$x^{2} +18x = 144$

On rearranging,

$x^{2} +18 x - 144 = 0$

$x^{2} - 6x +24x + 144 = 0$

$x (x-6) + 24 (x - 6) =0$

$(x - 6) (x + 24) = 0$

So x = 6 and x = - 24

∵ x cannot be - 24 as it will not satisfy the property of right triangle.

Therefore, the length of line segment GH = 6 units. so, Option (D) is the correct answer.
