Answer:

2 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

hello

The scale factor or linear scale factor is the ratio between the length of the same side in two similar figures.

in the graph we have a rectangle with width 5 units and long 10 units, and we know the scale factor is 1/5

$S_{f}=\frac{width(C)}{width(B)}\\ \\Width(B)*S_{f} =width(C)=5 units *\frac{1}{5} \\\\Width(C) =\frac{5}{5} units =1 unit$

$S_{f} =\frac{length (C)}{length(B)} \\\\\\length(C)=length(B)*S_{f}\\length(C)=(10*\frac{1}{5})$

$Length(C) =2 units\\\\ the area is A=w*l\\\\A=1 unit * 2 units\\\\\\$

A=2 square units

I hope it helps

A ranger in a lookout tower spots two fires on the campground below. Fire A is 75 meters east

Wittaler [7]

Answer:

the fire hydrant is 9 meters west and 58 m south of the tower

Step-by-step explanation:

Fire A and Fire B can be represented as a point in the Cartesian coordinate with the tower as the origin. Fire A is 75 meters east and 40 meters south of the tower, It can be represented as (75, -40). Fire B is 37 meters west and 64 meters south of the tower, It can be represented as (-37, -64).

If a point O(x, y) divides a line segment AB in the ratio n:m, with A( $x_1,y_1$ ) and B( $x_2,y_2$ ), the point O(x, y) is at:

$x=\frac{n}{n+m}(x_2-x_1)+x_1\\ \\y=\frac{n}{n+m}(y_2-y_1)+y_1$

The fire hydrant (x, y) divides Fire A(75, -40) and fire B(-37, -64) in the ratio 3:1(three fourth), hence:

$x=\frac{n}{n+m}(x_2-x_1)+x_1=\frac{3}{4}(-37-75) +75=\frac{3}{4}(-112)+75=-84+75\\x=-9 \\ \\y=\frac{n}{n+m}(y_2-y_1)+y_1=\frac{3}{4}(-64-(-40))+(-40)= \frac{3}{4}(-18)-40=-18-40\\y=-58$

The fire hydrant is at (-9, -58). That is the fire hydrant is 9 meters west and 58 m south of the tower

a motor boat traveled 18 miles down a river in 2 hours but took 4.5 hours to return upstream. Find the rate of the motor boat in

tangare [24]

Answer:

rate of the boat in still water = 6.5 miles / hour

rate of the current = 2.5 miles / hour.

Explanation:

1) Name the two variables:

c: rate of the current

b: rate of the boat in still water:

With that, the net rates of the boat down the river and upstrean are:

down the river: b + c

upstream: b - c

2) Now set the equations for the distance as a function of the times and the rates:

distance = rate × time

downstream: 18 miles = (b + c) × 2 hours

upstream: 18 miles = (b - c) × 4.5 hours

3) Set the system of equations:

18 = 2(b + c) ⇒ 9 = b + c . . . Equation (1)

18 = 4.5 (b - c) ⇒ 4 = b - c . . . Equation (2)

4) Solve the system by elimination:

Add equations (1) and (2): 9 + 4 = 2b

Divide both sides by 2: 13/2 = b

Simplify: b = 6.5

Replace b with 6.5 in equation (2) and solve:

4 = 6.5 - c ⇒ c = 6.5 - 4 = 2.5

5) Results:

b = rate of the boat in still water = 6.5 miles / hour

c = rate of the current = 2.5 miles / hour.

A stone is dropped into a barrel of water and sinks to the bottom. The ball is completely covered by water. By how much does the

Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

Answer: 5/12 or approx. 0.42

Step-by-step explanation:

The ball will displace as much water as its volume.

Meaning, the volume of the ball and the volume of the increase in water in the barrel will be equal.

Volume of a sphere:

$V_s=\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3$

The radius is half the diameter. The diameter of the sphere is 10, thus:

$r = d/2 = 10/2 = 5$

5^3 = 5*5*5 = 25*5 = 125

$V_s=\frac{4}{3} \pi * 5^3=\frac{4}{3} \pi * 125$

The volume of a cylinder, which will be the shape of the increase in water, is the following:

$V_c=\pi r^2 h$

We know the radius r, as we know the diameter.

$r=d/2=40/2=20$

$V_c=\pi r^2 h=\pi h * 20^2 = \pi h * 400$

We are looking for the height of the cylinder, h, as that will be the height of the water rise.

Since we know these 2 volumes are the same, we'll set them equal to each other and solve the equation:

$V_s = V_c$

$\frac{4}{3} * 125 * \pi = 400 * h * \pi$

We can get rid of pi by dividing both sides by pi:

$\frac{4}{3} * 125 = 400 * h$

And now divide both sides by 400:

$\frac{4}{3} * \frac{125}{400}= h$

Just reversing it and putting h to the left:

$h = \frac{4}{3} * \frac{125}{400} = \frac{4 * 125}{3 * 400}$

I see that I can divide both the numerator and the denominator by 4:

$h =\frac{125}{3 * 100}= \frac{125}{300}$

I'll now divide both the numerator and the denominator by 25 to simplify the expression:

$h=\frac{125}{300} =\frac{125 / 25}{300 / 25} = \frac{5}{12}$

Answer: The water rises by 5/12 (five twelfths).

If I want an approximate decimal answer, I can simply run this expression in a calculator:

$\frac{5}{12}$ ≈ $0.416666667$ ≈ $0.42$

Tems11 [23]

Answer:

y = 3/8x

3/8 cups of sugar for every 1/2 batch of muffins

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are only making 1/2 of the full batch of muffins, we only need to use 1/2 the cups of sugar:

$\frac{3}{4} (\frac{1}{2} )= \frac{3}{8}$ cups of sugar.
