Answer:   21 cm candle burns for 12 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation to show proportional relation between two quantities x and y

 : \dfrac{x_1}{y_1}=\dfrac{x_2}{y_2}

According to the given situation :

Let x_1=14\ cm,\ y_1=8\ hours,\ x_21\ cm,\ y_2=y

Put these values in equation , we get

\dfrac{14}{8}=\dfrac{21}{y}\\\\\Rightarrow\ y=\dfrac{21\times8}{14}=12\ hours

Hence, 21 cm candle burns for 12 hours.

Dan is watching The Birds in his backyard. Of the birds he watches, 9. Of them,or 45%, are sparrows. How many birds are in his b
ra1l [238]

If 9 of the sparrows is 45% of the birds in the backyard, 9/x = 45/100.

Cross multiply to get 9 * 100 = 45x; simplified is 900 = 45x or 20.

This means that there are 20 birds in the backyard. You can check this by dividing 9/20 which equals 45%

Morgan is walking her dog on an 8-meter-long leash. She is currently 500 meters from her house, so the maximum and minimum dista
lara31 [8.8K]
<u>The minimum distance is 492 meters from the house (500 - 8 = 492), and the maximum distance is 508 meters from the house (500 + 8 = 508). The dog may be slightly closer to the house, depending on how long the dog is, or if Morgan is using a leash extender.</u>

Find the area of a regular polygon
Dimas [21]

Answer:

(N-2)x180=sum of interior angles

So (5-2)x180=540

Divided by number of sides=540/4=108... then each angle is 108 divide to triangles ..so they will have 2 angles =54 2 sides =4 the last angle =72 ."of the triangle " area of triangle =1/2xsxsxsin(side in

between)

So 1/2x4x4xsin(72)= then multiply it by 5 as u will have 5 triangles .. so it will be 190.2(probably i tried)

A hot air balloon is flying at a constant speed of 20 mi/h at a bearing of N 36° E. There is a 10mi/h crosswind blowing due east
crimeas [40]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

v = {[(20sin36°)i + (20cos36°)j] + 10i} mi/h

 

vE = 20sin36º + 10 = 21.76 mi/h

 

vN = 20cos36° = 16.18 mi/h

 

v = √(vE2 + vN2) = √(21.762 + 16.182) mi/h = 27.12 mi/h

 

θ = tan-1(vN/vE) = tan-1(16.18/21.76) = 36.6º north of east

If p= (-2,7) find: Rx-axis(P)​
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

P(-2,7)

P'(-2,-7), ANSWER

reflection across the x-axis rule:

(×,y) ===> (x,-y)

Easy way to do this is draw the point on graph paper and count the same units above/below the x-axis. This example you are 7 units above the x-axis so you would count 7 units below the x-axis giving you the point.
