Answer:

m = 6.57 and n = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this question you will covert the thickness of a dollar to standard notation and then compare the two values.

0.07 =compared to 0.0043 = 0.0657

0.0657 = 6.57 x 10^-2

A quarter is thicker than a dollar by 6.57 x 10^-2.

m = 6.57 and n = -2

Jerry and Katja are running in a race. Jerry runs really fast for a while. Then, he stops to catch his breath. After he has rest

Elena L [17]

The slope of the lines represent the runners' speeds. Therefore, the purple line represents Jerry, since he started off faster but also stopped in the middle, and the slope became 0 (horizontal portion of the line.)
The red one represents Katja because she started and ended at a constant pace, which is visible in the red line's constant slope.

ΔABC is dilated using a scale factor of 12 to produce ΔA'B'C'. Select all of the statements that apply to the transformation.

GalinKa [24]

Answer:

Options (3) and (6)

Step-by-step explanation:

ΔABC is a dilated using a scale factor of $\frac{1}{2}$ to produce image triangle ΔA'B'C'.

Since, dilation is a rigid transformation,

Angles of both the triangles will be unchanged or congruent.

m∠A = m∠A' and m∠B = m∠B'

Since, sides of ΔA'B'C' = $\frac{1}{2}$ of the sides of ΔABC

Area of ΔA'B'C' = $\frac{1}{2}(\text{Area of triangle ABC})$

Area of ΔABC > Area of ΔA'B'C'

Since, angles of ΔABC and ΔA'B'C' are congruent, both the triangles will be similar.

ΔABC ~ ΔA'B'C'

Therefore, Option (3) and Option (6) are the correct options.

The area of a small pond is 78.5 yds. What is the diameter of the pond?

Zolol [24]

Answer:

Diameter of pound = 10 yd

Step-by-step explanation:

Given area of circular pond = 78.5 square yd

To find the diameter of the pond.

Solution:

The pond being circular in shape, the area of pond can be given as:

⇒ $\pi\ r^2$

where $r$ represents radius of the pond.

Thus, we have:

⇒ $\pi\ r^2=78.5$

Using $\pi=3.14$

⇒ $3.14r^2=78.5$

Solving for $r$

Dividing both sides by 3.14

⇒ $\frac{3.14r^2}{3.14}=\frac{78.5}{3.14}$

⇒ $r^2=25$

Taking square root both sides.

⇒ $\sqrt{r^2}=\sqrt{25}$

⇒ $r=\pm5$

So, radius = 5 yd, as distances are always positive.

Diameter = $2\times radius=2\times 5\ yd= 10\ yd$

Thus, diameter of pound = 10 yd

Let L be the line with parametric equations x=2+t, y=1-t, z=1+3t.Let v=(1,2,0).Find vectors w1 and w2 such that v= w1 + w2, and

charle [14.2K]

Answer:

w1 = (-1/11, 1/11, -3/11)

w2 = (12/11, 21/11, 3/11)

Step-by-step explanation:

Direction ratio of w1 = Direction ratio of L (because parallel) = K+(1, -1, 3)

Let <a,b,c> be direction ratio of w2.

Then, <a,b,c>. <1,-1,3> = 0

a-b+3c = 0

v = w1 + w2

(1, 2, 0) = k(1, -1, 3) + (a, b, c)

a + k = 1

b - K = 2

c - 3k = 0

Solving 4 equations, a = 12/11, b= 21/11, c = 3/11, k=-1/11

So, w1 = -1/11(1, -1 ,3) = (-1/11, 1/11, -3/11)

w2 = (12/11, 21/11, 3/11)

a recipe uses 1 1/4 cups of milk to make 10 servings. if the same amount of milk is used for each serving, how many servings can

Anestetic [448]

Answer:

128 servings can be made using 1 gallon of milk.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

$1\frac{1}{4}$ cups of milk make 10 servings

$1\frac{1}{4}$ can also be written as 1.25

Ratio of cups of milk to servings = 1.25 : 10

1 gallon = 16 cups

Let,

x be the number of servings made from 1 gallon

Ratio of cups of milk to servings = 16 : x

This is a direct proportion

1.25 : 10 :: 16 : x

Product of mean = Product of extreme

10*16 = 1.25x

160 = 1.25x

1.25x=160

Dividing both sides by 1.25

$\frac{1.25x}{1.25}=\frac{160}{1.25}\\x=128$

Hence,

128 servings can be made using 1 gallon of milk.
