Scrooge-
Oh! But he was a tight-fisted hand at the grindstone! Scrooge! a
squeezing, wrenching, grasping, scraping, clutching, covetous old
sinner! Hard and sharp as flint, from which no steel had ever struck out
generous fire; secret, and self-contained, and solitary as an oyster. The
cold within him froze his old features, nipped his pointed nose, shrivelled
his cheek, stiffened his gait; made his eyes red, his thin lips blue; and
spoke out shrewdly in his grating voice. A frosty rime' was on his head,
and on his eyebrows, and his wiry chin. He carried his own low
temperature always about with him; he iced his office in the dog-days;
and didn't thaw it one degree at Christmas.

For the rhombus below, find the measure of 1, 2, 3, and 4.

Answers

Answer:

Angle 1 is 51, Angle 2 is 51, Angle 3 equal 39, Angle 4 is 51

Step-by-step explanation:

A rhombus diagonals are perpendicular so all the angles in the middle of the rhombus measure is 90 degrees. So this means we are dealing with 4 right congruent triangles.

Since a rhombus is a paralleogram, it opposite sides are parallel. Since there is a line that it cuts through the parallel line, Angle 3 and 39 are alternate interior angles.

Alt. interior angles are congruent so Angle 3=39.

In the upper left triangle, angle 3 ,angle 4, and the middle angle form 180 degrees since it a triangle. The middle angle measure 90 degrees. so we can find angle 4.

[tex]39 + 90 + x = 180[/tex]

[tex]129 + x = 180[/tex]

[tex]x = 51[/tex]

so angle 4=51.

Angle 4 and Angle 1 are alt. interior angles so that means Angle 1 also equal 51.

Rhombus also has angle bisectors to angle 1=angle 2.

Angle 2=51.

20/2 = _____

Answers

Answer: 10

20/2 = 10

10 is a whole number

The fraction [tex]\frac{20}{2}[/tex] is 10 as a whole number.

A fraction is a mathematical expression that represents a part or a division of a whole. It is used to represent numbers that are not whole numbers or integers. A fraction consists of two components:

1. Numerator: The numerator is the number on the top of the fraction. It represents the quantity or part of the whole being considered.

2. Denominator: The denominator is the number at the bottom of the fraction. It represents the total number of equal parts into which the whole is divided.

Given the fraction [tex]\frac{20}{2}[/tex],

divide numerator and denominator by 2,

[tex]\frac{20\div 2}{2\div 2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{10}{1}[/tex] = 10.

So, [tex]\frac{20}{2}[/tex] = 10

The cost of levelling a rectangular field at
50 per square metre is 30,000. If its length
and breadth are in the ratio of 3: 2, then find
its perimeter.​ pls help

Answers

Answer:

The perimeter of a rectangular field is 100 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The given data of the rectangular field are;

The unit cost of levelling the rectangular field, U[tex]_c[/tex] = 50/m²

The total cost of levelling the field, T[tex]_c[/tex] = 30,000

The length to breadth ratio of the field, L:B = 3:2

Where;

L = The length of the field

B= The breadth of the field

From the given data of the field, we have;

The area of the field, A = T[tex]_c[/tex]/U[tex]_c[/tex]

∴ A = 30,000/(50/m²) = 600 m²

The area of the field, A = 600 m²

The formula for the area of a rectangle, A = Length, L × Breadth, B

A = L × B

We are given that the length to breadth ratio of the field, L:B = 3:2

∴ L/B = 3/2

L = (3/2) × B

The area of the rectangular field, A = L × B

∴ The area of the rectangular field, A = (3/2) × B × B = (3/2) × B²

A = (3/2) × B²

From the calculation for the cost of levelling the field, we have, A = 600 m²

∴ A = (3/2) × B²

A = 600 m²

By transitive property, we have;

(3/2) × B² = 600 m²

B² = (2/3) × 600 m² = 400 m²

B = √(400 m²) = 20 m

The breadth of the field, B = 20 m

From L = (3/2) × B, we have;

L = (3/2) × B

∴ L = (3/2) × 20 m = 30 m

∴ The  length of the field, L = 30 m

The perimeter, 'P', of a rectangle given the length, 'L' and breadth, 'B', is given as follows;

The perimeter of a rectangle, P = 2·L + 2·B

Therefore, for the rectangular field, we have;

P = 2 × 30 m + 2 × 20 m = 60 m + 40 m = 100 m

The perimeter of a rectangular field, P = 100 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We want to split this figure into two rectangles. We know the top figure is a rectangle because a rectangle has four right angles. For the bottom rectangle, because the sides are all perpendicular, all of the angles are also right angles.

Because they're rectangles, opposite sides are congruent. So now you can find the measures of the sides.

Refer to the image below for the rest.

Don't forget to add up the two areas for the total area of the whole figure.

2. We want to split this figure into a triangle and a rectangle.

Because the bottom figure has four right angles, we know that it's a rectangle. Therefore, its side measures are 24, 24, 8, and 8 because opposite sides of a rectangle are congruent.

For the triangle, because the sum of the triangle's base and two other segments is 24, we can use 24 - (6 + 6) = base. So the triangle base is 12.

Do this same thing to find the height of the triangle.

Refer to the image below for the rest.

Don't forget to add up the two areas for the total area of the whole figure.

3. We want to split this figure into a triangle and semicircle.

We're already given that the height is 15 and part of the base is 8, but there is no way to assume that the other part of the base is also 8. Remember, it's not to scale.

We know that this is a semicircle because there is a diameter present (a segment that intersects the center of the circle). This means that all radii of the circle are congruent, so the two radii present are both 8.

Because of Reflexive Property, the other part of the triangle base is now proven to also be 8.

Refer to the image below for the rest.

Don't forget to add up the two areas for the total area of the whole figure.

4. We want to split this figure into a rectangle and semicircle.

For the rectangle, because the sides are all perpendicular, all of the angles are also right angles. So we can prove that it is a rectangle.

Because this is a rectangle, opposite sides are congruent. So we have the sides of 15, 7, 15, and 7.

We know that this is a semicircle because there is a diameter present (a segment that intersects the center of the circle). This means that all radii of the circle are congruent.

Because of Reflexive Property, we know that the diameter of the circle is 15. The radius is half the diameter, meaning all radii are 1/2 (15), or 7.5.

Refer to the image below for the rest.

Don't forget to add up the two areas for the total area of the whole figure.

The stock of Company A gained 4% today to $4.16. What was the opening price of the stock in the beginning of the day?

Answers

Answer:

The opening price of the stock in the beginning of the day was $4.

Step-by-step explanation:

To be able to calculate the price of the stock at the beginning of the day, you have to consider that the equation to calculate the final price is equal to the opening price multiply for the result of one plus the increase or decrease percentage, which is:

final price=opening price*(1+0.04)

Now, you know that the final price is $4.16, so you can replace this value in the formula and solve for the opening price:

4.16=opening price*1.04

opening price=4.16/1.04

opening price=4

According to this, the answer is that the opening price of the stock in the beginning of the day was $4.

2. A rocket is shot upward with an initial velocity of 40 feet per second. Its height above the ground after t seconds is given by h= 40t - 16t?. What is its maximum height? When will it retum to earth?

Answers

Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

All you have to do is subtract....

Ask yourself hmmm... what is 40t - 16t. 40-16 24t

                                    And there you have it as your answer have a nice day!

The maximum height the will rocket achieve is 21.76 feet and the time taken to return to the earth is 8/5 seconds.

What is velocity?

Velocity is the rate of distance covered per time. Velocity could be average or instantaneous.

Average velocity can be given as;

Average velocity = total distance / total time taken

As per the given,

Velocity v = 40 feet/second

Height at time t as,

h = 40t - 16t²

Since, velocity = distance /time

dh/dt = velocity

dh/dt = 40 - 2 x 16 = 40 - 32t

v = 40 - 32t

At maximum height velocity will be zero,

40 - 32t = 0

32t = 40

t = 32/40 = 4/5 seconds

Maximum height = 40(4/5) - 16(4/5)²

Maximum height = 32 - 10.24 = 21.76 feet per second

Time taken = 2 x 4/5 = 8/5 seconds

Hence "The maximum height will rocket achieve is 21.76 feet and the time taken to return to the earth is 8/5 seconds".
