If we turn this to a ratio we get 64:16 and we need ?:18.5. To easily solve this we would divide 64 by 16 and 64/16= 4 now that we know that the shoulder width is 1/4 if a persons height we can then multiply 18.5 by 4 to find the woman’s height. 18.5x4=74
So your answer is 74 inches

Carmela mixes 3/4 kilogram of walnuts, 1/2 kilogram of almonds, and 1/4 kilogram of pecans together. She divides the mixed nuts
Evgesh-ka [11]

Amount of walnuts=\frac{3}{4} kg

Amount of almonds=\frac{1}{2} kg

Amount of pecans=\frac{1}{4} kg

Total amount=\frac{3}{4}+\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{4}

LCM is 4 so sum is = \frac{3+2+1}{4}=\frac{6}{4} =\frac{3}{2}

As given, Carmela divides the mixed nuts into 3/10 kilogram bags so number of bags will be:

\frac{\frac{3}{2}}{\frac{3}{10}}

= \frac{3}{2}\times\frac{10}{3} = 5

Hence, answer is 5 bags.

Point AAA is at {(6,1)}(6,1)left parenthesis, 6, comma, 1, right parenthesis and point CCC is at {(2,-7)}(2,−7)left parenthesis,
pychu [463]

Answer:

The coordinates of B is (3, - 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

A(6, 1)

C(2, -7)

Coordinates of point B such that AB = 1/3 × BC

Hence we have;

AC = AB + BC = BC + \dfrac{1}{3} \times BC =  \dfrac{4}{3} \times BC

Therefore BC = 3/4 × AC

Hence, AB = 1/3 × BC = 1/3 × 3/4 × AC = 1/4 × AC

AC = √((6 - 2)² + (1 - (-7))²) = √(16 + 64) = √80 = 4·√5

AB = 1/4 × 4·√5 = √5

Therefore;

AB² = (x - 6)² + (y - 1)² = 5

Slope = (1 - (-7))/(6 - 2) = 2

Hence the y coordinate of B = -7 + sin(tan⁻¹(2)) ×√5 = -5

The x coordinate of B = 2 + cos(tan⁻¹(2)) ×√5 = 3

The coordinates of B = (3, - 5)

(1 point) Rework problem 15 in section 2 of Chapter 5 of your textbook about the growing suburb and the declining city using the
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

16 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of years. The suburb population is growing at a rate of 5000 per year after x years, it can be represented by the equation:

320000 + 5000x

The city population is declining at a rate of 14000 per year after x years, it can be represented by the equation:

624000 - 14000x

The number of years for the city and suburb population to be equal can be gotten from:

320000 + 5000x = 624000 - 14000x

14000x + 5000x = 624000 - 320000

19000x = 304000

x = 304000 / 19000

x = 16

In 16 years the populations of the suburb and the city be equal

Ramesh examined the pattern in the table. Powers of 7 Value 2,401 343 49 7 1 Ramesh says that based on the pattern . Which state
earnstyle [38]

1) You included neihter what Ramesh says nor the statements, then I can you tell some facts about the pattern.


2) The sequence is: 2401, 343, 49, 7, and 1.


3) The first term is 2401


4) The sequence is a decreasing geometric one.


5) The ratio is found dividing two consecutive terms (the second by the first, or the third by the second, or the fourth by the third, or the fifth by fourth):


1/7 = 7 / 49 = 49 / 343 = 343 / 2401.


So, the ratio is 1/7


6) The sum of that sequence is 2401 + 343 + 49 + 7 + 1 = 2801
