Meghan reduced the size of a rectangle to a height of 2 inches. What is the new width if it was originally 24 inches wide and 12 inches tall?

Meghan Reduced The Size Of A Rectangle To A Height Of 2 Inches. What Is The New Width If It Was Originally

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2/12 = 1/6

24 * 1/6 = 4

or

12/24 = 2/x

12 x = 48

x = 4

or the original width was twice the length

twice 2 is 4

find the mean median and mode of the data set :15,11,14,10,12,15,15

Answers

Answer:

Mean = 13.14, Median = 14, Mode = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean is the numbers added together divided by the number of numbers

15 + 11 + 14 + 10 + 12 + 15 + 15 = 92

92 / 7 = About 13.14

The median is the middle of the numbers ordered from least to greatest

10 11 12 14 15 15 15

14 is in the middle so that is the median.

The mode is the number showing up the most.

15 shows up 3 times so it is the mode.

After being dilated by a scale factor 1.5?

Answers

Given:

The given figure is dilated by a scale factor 1.5.

To find:

The coordinates of B' and C'.

Solution:

If a figure is dilated by a scale factor k at point (a,b), so the rule of transformation is

[tex](x,y)\to (k(x-a)+a,k(x-b)+b)[/tex]

From the given figure it is clear that A(3,-3), B(-2,2) and C(-3,-5).

The figure is dilated by a scale factor 1.5 at point A(3,-3), so the rule of transformation is

[tex](x,y)\to (1.5(x-3)+3,1.5(x-(-3))+(-3))[/tex]

[tex](x,y)\to (1.5(x-3)+3,1.5(x+3)+(-3))[/tex]

[tex](x,y)\to (1.5(x)-4.5+3,1.5(x)+4.5-3)[/tex]

[tex](x,y)\to (1.5x-1.5,1.5x+1.5)[/tex]

Using this rule, we get

[tex]B(-2,2)\to B'(1.5(-2)-1.5,1.5(2)+1.5)[/tex]

[tex]B(-2,2)\to B'(-3-1.5,3+1.5)[/tex]

[tex]B(-2,2)\to B'(-4.5,4.5)[/tex]

And

[tex]C(-3,-5)\to C'(1.5(-3)-1.5,1.5(-5)+1.5)[/tex]

[tex]C(-2,2)\to C'(-4.5-1.5,-7.5+1.5)[/tex]

[tex]C(-2,2)\to C'(-6,-6)[/tex]

Therefore, the coordinates of B' and C' are B(-4.5,4.5) and C'(-6,-6).

Write 24 as a product of primes.
Use index notation when giving your answer.​

Answers

Answer:

2^3 * 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Here are the first several prime numbers: 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23

To find the prime factorization of a number, start by dividing the number by the smallest prime number it is divisible by. Keep dividing by that prime number until you can't anymore. You only divide by prime numbers that divide evenly. Then move on to the next prime number that divides evenly, and do the same. You eventually will get to 1. Then you put together all the prime factors.

This is much easier to do than it sounds like in this explanation.

Start with 24.

24/2 = 12

12/2 = 6

6/2 = 3    3 is not divisible by 2, so we move on to 3.

3/3 = 1    We got to 1, so we are done.

The prime factorization is the product of all the prime numbers we divided by which are in bold.

24 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 3

Now we index it:

24 = 2^3 * 3

The base of tyler's cabin is a 56 feet by 78 feet rectangle. What is the area of the base of tyler's cabin?

Strategy:

why did you choose this strategy:

Answers

Answer:  4368 square feet

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

Explanation:

Check out the diagram below

I drew a rectangle with dimensions 56 ft by 78 ft.

Then I broke up the 56 into 50+6, and I broke up the 78 into 70+8

The reason for this is because it's fairly easy to multiply the areas of each smaller rectangle at this point

In the upper left corner, we have an area of 50*70 = 3500. Note how this is basically 5*7 = 35, but we tack on the two zeros (from 50 and 70 combined)In the upper right corner, we have an area of 70*6 = 420In the lower left corner, we have an area of 50*8 = 400In the lower right corner, we have an area of 6*8 = 48

Add up all the areas found: 3500+420+400+48 = 4368

As a way to check, using your calculator shows that 56*78 = 4368

Write the slope of a line perpendicular to y=-6x+4. Explain why it is perpendicular

Answers

Answer:

1/6 is the slope since you have to flip it

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

The slope of a line perpendicular to the equation is 1/6 or x/6.

This is perpendicular because it is the reciprical of the other equation

Step-by-step explanation:

y=-6x+4.

the slope intercept form is y=mx+b

m is the slope

m=-6

for the equation to be perpendicular then the slope is the reciprical

Knowing this lets find a line perpendicular to this equation

Equation:

y=1/6x+2/3

or

y=x/6+2/3

Answers

Answer:

m∠AOC = 15°m∠BOC = 15°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the angle ∠AOB

It is stated that CO is the angle bisector of ∠AOB.

Given that ∠AOB = 30°

As we know that the angle bisector bisects the angle into two equal angles.

Thus, the angle bisector CO bisects the angle ∠AOB into two equal angles, which are:

m∠AOCm∠BOC

as

∠AOB = 30°

Thus, the two formed angles i.e m∠AOC and m∠BOC by the angle bisector would be half of the angle bisector as the angle bisector bisects the angle ∠AOB into two equal angles.

Therefore,

m∠AOC = 15°m∠BOC = 15°

how do you find the perpendicular distance between a line segment and a point? (photo attached) i’m stuck

Answers

Answer:

Exact Distance = [tex]\frac{4\sqrt{10}}{5}[/tex]

Approximate Distance = 2.529822

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

Explanation:

This process is quite involved if you don't know the shortcut formula. I'll go over the long method first, and then show the shortcut in the next section.

First we'll need the equation of the line through points O and M. Use of the slope formula will show line OM has slope -1/3, which you are correct in stating.

Then use point slope form to determine the equation of line OM is y = (-1/3)x+11/3. This converts to the standard form x+3y = 11.

For anything in the form Ax+By = C, the equation perpendicular to this is of the form Bx-Ay = D. The A,B coefficients swap, and one item is negated. This helps form the negative reciprocal slope needed for the perpendicular line.

Compare x+3y = 11 to Ax+By = C. We see that A = 1 and B = 3.

So Bx-Ay = D turns into 3x-y = D. Then plug in the coordinates of H(-3,2) and compute to get

3x-y = 3(-3)-2 = -9-2 = -11. So D = -11

The equation 3x-y = D turns into 3x-y = -11 which is the equation of the line through point H and this line is perpendicular to line OM.

At this point, we have this system of equations

x+3y = 11

3x-y = -11

Solve that system however you wish. Substitution may be the best choice. Doing so leads to the intersection point (-2.2, 4.4)

The last step is to apply the distance formula between the points H(-3,2) and the intersection point (-2.2, 4.4)

The distance you should get is [tex]\frac{4\sqrt{10}}{5} \approx 2.529822[/tex]

I'm skipping steps because listing everything out would take up way too much space in my opinion.

--------------------------------------------------------

The first section goes over a fairly lengthy process of finding the perpendicular distance. Luckily, there's a shortcut.

Consider an equation of the form Ax+By=C, aka standard form. Now consider a point P located at (m,n) that is not on the line Ax+By = C. We can find the distance from P to the line using this formula below

[tex]d = \frac{|Am+Bn-C|}{\sqrt{A^2+B^2}}[/tex]

In this case, A = 1, B = 3 and C = 11 found back in the previous section. So you'll still need to calculate the equation of line OM.

Also, we'll use (m,n) = (-3,2) which are the coordinates of point H

From here it's a fairly straightforward computation

[tex]d = \frac{|Am+Bn-C|}{\sqrt{A^2+B^2}}\\\\d = \frac{|1*(-3)+3*2-11|}{\sqrt{(1)^2+(3)^2}}\\\\d = \frac{|-8|}{\sqrt{1+9}}\\\\d = \frac{8}{\sqrt{10}}\\\\[/tex]

Optionally we can rationalize the denominator like so

[tex]d = \frac{8}{\sqrt{10}}\\\\d = \frac{8\sqrt{10}}{\sqrt{10}\sqrt{10}}\\\\d = \frac{8\sqrt{10}}{\sqrt{10*10}}\\\\d = \frac{8\sqrt{10}}{\sqrt{100}}\\\\d = \frac{8\sqrt{10}}{10}\\\\d = \frac{2*4\sqrt{10}}{2*5}\\\\d = \frac{4\sqrt{10}}{5}\\\\d \approx 2.529822\\\\[/tex]
