<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

The longest bread stick is approximately 16 in

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>

The diagram representing the tray is shown in the attached image

From the diagram, we can note that the diagonal of the tray represents the hypotenuse of a right-angled triangle having legs 9.5 in and 13 in

<u>Therefore, to get the length of the hypotenuse, we can use the Pythagorean equation which is as follows:</u>

c² = a² + b²

where c is the length of the hypotenuse and a and b are the length of the two legs

<u>Substitute with the givens in the above equation to get the length of the hypotenuse as follows:</u>

c² = (9.5)² + (13)² = 259.25

c = 16.1 in which is approximately 16 in

<u>From the above, we can conclude that:</u>

The longest bread stick that can be fit straight along the diagonal of the tray is approximately 16 in

Hope this helps :)

Triangle ABC was dilated and translated to form similar triangle A'B'C'.
Hunter-Best [27]
Dilation refers to a non rigid motion where a figure is transform and its image has the same form but a different size measure.

On this exercise is asked to find the scale factor by which the triangle ABC was 
dilated to produce the triangle A'B'C'. 
Dilation is define by the rule (x,y)-- (kx, ky) where k represents the scale factor.

As can be see on the picture the dilation produce was an enlargement meaning that the image is larger that the preimage.
Of this form you can discard the choices A and B as possible solutions.

Lets try 5/2 as the possible scale factor:
(x,y)-- (kx, ky)
A(0,2)--(5/2(0),5/2(2))=A'(0,5)
B(2,2)--(5/2(2),5/2(2))=B'(5,5)
C(2,0)--(5/2(2),5/2(0))=C'(5,0)

Lets try 5/1 or 5 as the scale factor:
A(0,2)--(5(0),5(2))=A'(0,10)
B(2,2)--(5(2),5(2))=B'(10,10)
C(2,0)--(5(2),5(0))=C'(10,0)

As said at the beginning of the question the triangle was not only dilated.
After a dilation and a translation, the scale factor of the dilation is letter C or 5/2.

A shoe factory produces 1.81 × 104 pairs of shoes each month. Estimate how many pairs of shoes the factory will produce if it ma
quester [9]

Answer:

2*10 ^6 shoes in 10 years

Step-by-step explanation:

1.81 × 10^4 pairs of shoes each month

1.2 × 10^2 months in 10 years

Multiply these together to determine the number of shoes in 10 years

1.81 × 10^4 * 1.2 × 10^2

We want to estimate so 1.81 is approximately 2 and 1.2 is approximately 1

2 × 10^4 * 1 × 10^2

Multiply the numbers

2*1 = 2

Add the exponent

10 ^ ( 4+2)

10 ^6

Put this back together

2*10 ^6

If h(x) = 6 - X, what is the value of (h*n (10)?
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

<u>(h * h)(10) = 16</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

We should know that: (f*g)(x) = f(x)*g(x)

Given:   h(x) = 6 - x

∴(h * h)(x) = (6-x) (6-x) = (6-x)²

To find (h * h)(10), substitute with x = 10 at (h * h)(x)

∴ (h * h)(10) =  (6-10)² = (-4)² = 16

==============================================

Note: if we want to find (hoh)(10)

(hoh)(x) = h[h(x)] = 6 - (6 - x) = 6 - 6 + x = x

∴ (hoh)(10) = 10
